1. "On BATMAN ETERNAL..."
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

This title goes hard in the paint!!!
HUSH, is on takeover mode and, BRUCEY is feeling the pain.
The story is well-plotted, intriguing and, fucking fun.
I am excited for each issue to drop and it is usually the first book I read each month.
And, R.M. GUERA (of Scalped) has been killing it these past two issues. The man was born to draw the BATFAM! His rendition of, HUSH is straight scary!
The story though. Martial law has been declared, mobs/gangs are murdering each other, Killer Croc is fighting demons in the sewers, the new commisioner is an evil pawn, CLUEMASTER is actually COOLMASTER, Selena is about to get mobbed up etc.
Allot is going on and the BATMAN MYTHOS are being strengthened, rejuvenated and, reinvigorated as a direct result. Not that they needed it. SNYPER, handling biz.
Hands down, this story fucks with anything, THE GOD wrote BAT-RELATED on his best day.
Stop sleeping, B. SHELLZ

3. "IMAGE running the world, right now! ((LONG))"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

So....

The Walking Dead's time jump has been hella awesome so far. SPOILERS


'Talking zombies' that apparently arent zombies. Wouldnt if be cool if they were led by Michonne?

Invincible is still running strong. Along with CHEW, its the most consistent thing on the shelf. Robot Ragnarok commences and all of earth is the diorama for destruction. Awesome. Is Mark really gonna be a bitch about this and just be like, OK? Guess we'll see... Oh, and of course Black Invincible (whats his name bulletproof or whateva) was a straight traitor. Sike, dont really care, but I did Note it....

Alex and Ada is simplistically stunning. Stylish. So DC (the city not the comic co.) I LOVE it. Cant really see where this arc is going....but I'm down...

CHEW-- I feel like no one reads it yet few comics have I enjoyed more. Layman's art and the artists work really gel well together. Rather perfect in its execution. Hope the TV bit is true and comes to light cuz I feel like Chew is an easy hit for the mainstream. It's gonna pop, watch....

POWERS is back but doesnt feel like Powers to me...Uh I like Christian back with some juice. Still love Deena but something just feels off...dunno. Glad Retro Girl has 'returned'

SAGA-----> IS AWESOMELY Light years ahead of everything. I would go on about it but everyone else is. If you arent caught up on SAGA you are losing on life. You are, just own it and rectify it, ASAP

They're canceling NEW WARRIORS after only 12 books. Well....it did kinda suck. Kinda but not totally. Now I feel like I'll never see the radical Speedball or even lame-o Justice for a good long while. Least NOVA's solo book seems to be doing well (Guardians of the Galaxy 18 & 19 are pretty much a Nova/Starlord story...and its HEAT) I will continue to long for what could've been.

I cant find Southern Bastards 4 ANYWHERE and it upsets me (still havent read it yet)

JJJ is shocking me in Miles Morales Spidey he didnt just do what I think he did, did he?

All I got for now...

5. "Marvel movie wars spills over to comics: Possible cancellation of F4"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Long story sorta short: Marvel wants ownership of all its characters again to make their own movies. Things are less acrimonious with Sony over Spider-Man, but they're close to declaring all out war with Fox over Fantastic Four and X-Men.

Looks like Marvel plans on cancelling Fantastic Four by April 2015, so there won't be any F4 comics on the shelves for the August film release. And apparently X-Men writers aren't allowed to create any new characters in the comics, since they automatically would become property of Fox for film purposes.

Of course, I highly doubt the F4 are dead in comic form; they'll be back by 2016 at the latest, and if Sony blinks, they won't be gone at all. But still, gotta love corporate greed.

So down. This issue was fucking awesome. End of the day, Bruce is the baddest motherfucker out. Nobody can fuck with him.

AXIS #1
Lots of words. Somewhat shoddy dialogue. Existing plot-points that never existed prior. Still though? Red Onslaught, STARK SECRET WEAPONS and, CARNAGE! Down.

After the first few pages of this I'm really looking forward to the rest of this series and a monthly is just way too long to wait!

Only thing that fell off for me at the end was The Wake. Other than that I really enjoy his horror.

33. "Memetic #1 was about as scary as could be + REVIEWS"
In response to Reply # 0


          

Good Times Sloth was a pretty freaky #1 in part because the idea is new, it's definitely scary as hell, and hey, bleeding from the eyes before choking people out. Oh yeah, SPOILERS. I just hope it doesn't devolve into a typical post-apocalyptic zombies, Crossed, you-name-it type of thing, but the stage set after #1 is definitely a possibility.

This reminds me though, they show Obama getting memefied (though they don't name him, it's clearly him). This a few weeks after Manhattan Projects's incredibly detailed panel of John F. Kennedy's head exploding. Not sure how I feel about the appropriateness of either one.

Other books:

Stray Bullets uber alles - just about the best thing I'm reading now. Poor Eli. Poor Ginny. A+++

Butterfly #2 - a little confusing with parts of the story being told in reverse. Not as good as #1, but still good espionage material. B/B+

Unwritten - kinda ho hum. Still enjoying it well enough of course, but the series really shoulda gone out on the high note War of Words. C/C+

Multiversity #3 - I'm enjoying it. BUT I pretty much fail to see the interconnectedness of the various stories, especially this week. The stories seem to be straightforward but I feel like the levels Morrison is trying to imply in the story just aren't really coming together for me. B

Starlight #6 - loved it. A

45. "my impression"
In response to Reply # 37


  

          

>

the colors are gorgeous, props to the colorist. its been the highlight for me.

the art is great as well, the character design has been fun too.

the concept drew me in instantly.

the story. i have no qualms with being dropped into the middle of a gripping mystery. but as it stands right now i'm on the fence about continuing. the story starts off promising but stalls out(IMO) until the very end. i guess this mythological whodunit is supposed to be the appeal but Laura couldnt carry the issues I read.

what was your take?

Enjoyed Tooth & Claw #1, been thoroughly loving Wild's End.

Was actually thinking Tooth & Claw would be something my kid would go crazy for - he's big into anthropomorphic fantasy - until it got to the 'vulvular vorftex' or whatever it was. Then I noticed the 'for mature readers' tag on the back cover. Oh well.

Left off awhile ago in the early 40s

Since Monday I've already read up to 100.

Almost wish I had another 100 to read so I could keep going. It's gonna kill me to read this monthly but damn this has been flames. Kirkman knows his crackers that's for sure. I'm so invested in a bunch of heroes and villains in this title.

72. "SPOILERS Unlike some of the others, I thought this one was easy to take"
In response to Reply # 65


          

at face value and at the first level of metatextual commentary. SPOILERS

Face value: The president figured something out (we don't know what, but presumably it has to deal with the comic book) and is convinced that his murder by the preeminent super hero will save the world. But something didn't go quite right, and rogue hero the Question is trying to figure out what it was.
The only thing I wasn't sure I got (again, at face value) was whether the kid who shot Yellowjacket and then realized it was his dad was Harley.


First layer of meta is the obvious Watchmenisms, both visually (first thing I thought on seeing the intro's blood on the presidential seal, a theme that was repeated several times) and story-wise. I thought this was interesting not just b/c of the Morrison/Moore mentor/protege antagonism historically (which presents the most likely 2d level meta commentary) but also b/c he is actually using the Charlton characters that Moore wanted to use.

But you guys probably know all that. I'm going to try to find some analysis of it; I think Wolk or somebody is doing a commentary on it and while I haven't been reading it regularly this story might bbe worth checking into it.

In response to Reply # 72


  

          

But I think part of that is the creative team. Morrison and Quitely is more engaging because it's masterful comics, but also because I revere their collaborations enough to stop everything and engage with it. For the most part I'm only half paying attention to this series with the idea that I'll make time for it later when it's all done and out there. Waiting for the trade but still popping my head in every now and then.

In response to Reply # 74


          

and realize that each issue has been jam-packed with STUFF that I'm only partially picking up on (and I think that's affected by the fact that I want a good story, not a bunch of STUFF on te fringes of a good story).

Also I think the over-arching plot that hteoretically connects all these seems to be getting weaker issue to issue. Not sure if that's a commentary on the state of the comics industry or what. I don't really care since this issue was probably the best one yet, but it'd be kinda nice if it really felt like a) there is an overarching story connecting these worlds, and b) I'm mostly going to understand it without needing it explained to me, after which I'll be like 'whatever.'

51. "Anybody reading Ms. Marvel?"
In response to Reply # 0


          

I've gone full on evil trade waiter except for Ms Marvel, it's the only monthly I faithfully pick up. The book really won me over when they had a fill in artist for 2 issues and I still loved it. Adrian Alphona's designs were the thing that got me to check the book out and his art kept me on it, he shoves so many fun references into the nooks and crannies of every panel. Those 2 issues made me realize that the writing is just so engaging that my love for it isn't so specific to him but is equally shared with G. Willow Wilson. Didn't hurt that the fill in artist, Jake Wyatt, was also pretty great

I've tried and just can't get into the straight up super hero books anymore, especially the ones that are sporting that 90s Image art. I get why people like 'em, just not for me as a rapidly getting old man. This book, She Hulk, Daredevil, Hawkeye, Silver Surfer feel like they're drawing more on indie asthetics in the larger context of the Marvel U and I can get behind that.

And now Lockjaw is her pet. I mean, c'mon!

I took a chance and started reading it to my 7 year old, skipping over some bad words and a few mentions of date rape, etc (things teens in Jersey City may have to deal with). Kamala Khan has quickly risen up the ranks to be one of his favorite heroes. He had "his best dream ever" that he was patrolling Jersey City with her and shouts "Embiggen" at me from time to time. Good stuff.

I'm planning to pick up the Surfer trade soon, really liked the 1st 2 issues but I figured I could wait on that one. Read She Hulk trade over vacay a few weeks back and it was pretty good - 8 out of 10 if Ms Marvel rates a 10 (which it does for me)

Never read anything else by Wilson, not worth checkin out Air?

the comic is really a love letter to local fan culture, so it's interesting to see the extent it's "researched" and is pretty much an entirely valid representation of the hardcore fan culture here. But yeah, like you said the story is pretty slow-paced in order to fit all the detail in and I don't like the new artist at all.

But hey, I'm like the last guy in Portland that still loves Kalif Alhassan so his personal chant (which apparently cropped up after I left the Timbers Army section, so I didn't really even know about it) getting play in the pages is enough to keep me happy.

Also, so far it's been nothing but adoring about the Timbers Army, but I'm also aware that Rucka knows about some of the dark side shit that goes on within the group. I'm holding out hope some of that will pop up eventually.

HOPE!

and on top of that it made a fantastic reading aloud experience with the kids.

#3 was not quite as good as 1 & 2, but still good.

Still one of the most fun books I'm reading... I think it'll actually be an improvement to switch to the character-based arcs at this point. Hopefully they can keep to the schedule and not go SECRET on us.

71. "Coupla reviews after dropping too much money"
In response to Reply # 0


          

ODY-C... not finished yet, but didn't really do too much for me. *Yawn* I'm guessing this is kind of the way you felt about Cassanova, I think it was, when Fraction wrote it. As much as I'm enjoying Low & Black Science this guy's definitely not all hits with me. Still have to find a way to read Fear Agent.

Cloaks #4 - my #1 book for pulp fun, I think. Somewhat predictable ending, but plenty of twists otherwise. A+

Unwritten Apocalypse - to be concluded and that's a good thing. The Apocalypse part of it has been better, but man even though the part between War of Words and Apocalypse wasn't outright *bad* it definitely made the series feel bloated and disconnected in a lot of ways.

Low #5 - interesting developments. Didn't see the twist coming. Looking forward to Gorm's back story if we get one. Wonder if that's it for Marik; Tajo is a lost cause. I think. I'm predicting that in the face of impending disaster we wind up with some sort of situation in which Stel and Roln have to team up. Really good read though. A-

Butterfly #3 - brutal! She's cold. I've been enjoying the intrigue & espionage type books a lot lately and this is among the better ones. Makes me wonder whatever happened to Where Is Jake Ellis? A-

Little Nemo in Slumberland #2 - Read this with the kids last night. Love it. Might have to get one of those giant books of McKay's OG Nemo for them for Christmas. The Complete is on sale... $125 though! A-

Memetic #2 - while #1 was about the scariest shit I've read, #2 kinda brings the zombie apocalypse aspect of it back as the main focus. Some good character development type drama; I'll still pick up #3 since that's where it's ending, but unfortunately #1 was so good it's indubitable that the series will have peaked early. B

Roche Limit #3 - sci-fi crime seems to be a new thing - this, Copperhead, The Fuse... Copperhead's probably the best but I've enjoyed this one quite a bit as well. B

Rasputin #2 - hell yeah! This is a lot of fun. Rasputin's not usually presented as a sympathetic character at all, which makes a nice surprise but even if this were just about Joe Schmo it'd still be fun. Wondering if Ras is going to turn heel somehow somewhere. A

Trees #7 - this book feels oddly shimmery - there's something about it that's atmospheric, even when a relative amount of action is happening. Still have no clues what the trees are up to but the sprawling character cast remains the motivating factor. A/A-

Wayward #4 - second pick after Cloaks for good teen pulp fun. Outstanding use of Japanese setting, good characters (esp Ayane), makes me want to put on http://www.amazon.com/Marginal-Moon-Soul-Flower/dp/B0000089NE. Lots & lots of fun. A

Zero #12 - damn, man. I need to re-read this whole series and try plotting it out. The individual issues read like great one-shots. The way they tie together, though, it feels like I'm kind of feeling my way through that, making some connections in my head w/o being sure if they're right. Didn't recognize the guys on the last page - anyone else? A

79. "Yang & Liew's 'The Shadow Hero'"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

I enjoyed the shit out of this book.

Going into it I had a loose understanding that the writer had researched the "first Asian American superhero" and unearthed this bizarre bit of Golden Age comics history called The Green Turtle. Now whether or not he actually was Asian is up for debate, because he always kept his back turned to the reader (There's a sample story in the back and yes, it's every bit as awkward looking as it sounds) and the comic didn't last long enough to ever get into his origin story. But the creator of the character was Chinese American, and that informs a lot of what's going on in The Shadow Hero.

So, this is a remix/retelling of a forgotten Golden Age character, and also a statement about the genre overall, but it manages to be both these things without ever diving into the Morrisonesque side of the pool. The fourth wall remains well intact, as does a strong, character-driven foundation for some wonderful storytelling. It kinda doesn't matter that this is a made-up origin for a forgotten 40's character. Yeah, it's a cool tidbit that explains why the story takes place in that era. But it doesn't rely on those factors at all. Remove that context and you get a fresh superhero story with great characters and a whole different cultural context from what you're used to seeing in your cape & tights books. Also, it's funny as shit. I don't wanna spoil it for anyone but The Green Turtle's mom might be my favorite comic character of 2014.

Please do yourselves a favor and check for this.

Liked the book as well. Based on your review I read the back pages first (HEY FELLERS! Get your FREE copy of JU-JITSU Nation when you order your copy of THE GREAT CRIMEBUSTERS!). Man that Green Turtle story was wack though, no wonder it only lasted 5 issues. The Turtle Rocket was killing me.

Anyhow, my only issue with the main story was that it wasn't even a reinvention of the old character, it was just a new thing altogether. And that's certainly okay, it just seems kind of odd for them to attach it to a previously existing thing..

Bummed that Red Center couldn't be brought over to the light.

Well, I came to dig how they didn't lean too hard on any past "continuity" or anything like that. They used the era, and that outsider/immigrant experience, and just let it be its own thing. Which I think is a better hook than "hey we're bringing back this character from 70 years ago that no one's ever heard of" (although I'm a sucker for such hooks and it's why I picked up the book in the first place)


>Bummed that Red Center couldn't be brought over to the light.

She had a really interesting story, too. I'd read a spin-off/sequel

81. "Black Widow - Edmonson & Noto"
In response to Reply # 0


          

I haven't heard much talk about this Black Widow series that's out now but I picked up the first trade and loved it. For the most part each issue is a standalone mission with the overarching story of her pulling these jobs to get over her guilt over past sins (she gives the money to families of people she killed). I don't know anything about her history, maybe all these past sins have been addressed in the comics but I don't feel like it's necessary to know anything to enjoy some great spy stories. I'm very interested in what's the story with her lawyer/manager, seems like there's something about him that has a story to tell.

I'm totally new to Noto, that dude's a badass! It's sort of like he's mashed up Travis Charest with Bill Sienkiewicsz (all time fave comic artist from his New Mutants run). I like how he'll employ 3 different styles in one page and it still feels cohesive and supports the story. The way he bleeds the red from Natasha's hair just oozes atmosphere - gorgeous.

I've picked up a bunch of recent Marvel trades and this is the one I've come back to the most, though She Hulk's a close second (and I just started reading Silver Surfer). Am I alone on this one?

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

F4 were basically getting dismantled and are an all different fight for their lives

the X-Men just lost Wolvy, Apocalypse seems to be back, and there's a aew mutant out there that could destroy the world on a whim...not to mention mystique's future kids running around and what Sabretooth has been up to

The Avengers are fighting this HUGE war with multiple facets against the Illuminati, builders, and extinction itself

Spidey has a threat coming across the mutiverse in what may the the biggest Spidey story ever

The Hulk has gone through yet another change due to Extremis tech and has decided that no other creature should be gamma powered ( i love and hate this storyline btw...part of it makes NO sense)

Thor lost his hammer and later his arm...there's a new mysterious female Thor now, and Malekith is running around wrecking stuff with OG Thor's arm hanging around his neck LOL

Steve Rogers has seemingly lost the Super Soldier serum, is an old man now with a grown son, and the Falcon is the new Cap

Bucky is still presumed dead to the world but goes around doing his Winter soldier thing in secret protecting the Earth against all kids of threats

many of the Avengers and X-Men have turned malicious and their enemies turned virtuous

and that doesn't even feel like half of what's going on

In response to Reply # 90


          

I read the books that tend to be a bit smaller scale like Ms Marvel, Daredevil, Moon Knight, Black Widow, Silver Surfer. I got out of comics in the late 80s, early 90s when the X-men universe got too overblown so I stay away from things that are overly convoluted.

That said, I've been curious about the Hulk lately. Any recent stuff worth checking out? I haven't read an issue of the Hulk since Mike Mignola was drawing Bill Mantlo's stories so I have zero idea what's going on with Bruce Banner. I saw Simonson's cover last year and almost picked it up.

....it's interesting in concept, but it reads like a gimmick, and doesn't totally make sense to me...

Moon Knight, Silver Surfer, Daredevil, and She-Hulk are excellent books, and i love the smaller, more intricate scale they consistently deliver on....i like Ms marvel, but it's not something i can't wait to pick up...i think i'm a few issues behind...

the Avengers Arena/undercover era has been awesome too...made me really like Hopeless as a writer

WHAT: ‘Archie’ Relaunches In 2015 With Mark Waid And Fiona Staples
by Chris Sims December 15, 2014 3:27 PM
Share on Facebook
Share on Twitter
Archie art by Fiona Staples
Over the past few years, Archie Comics has taken a lot of inspiration from the world of superheroes. We’ve seen inter-company crossovers, high-profile creators, the launch of a Mature Readers line and a couple of superhero imprints, and now, they’re embracing the superhero comic’s most time-honored tradition: For the first time since 1942, the Archie title is getting relaunched with a new #1.
That’s kind of a big deal in and of itself — with 661 issues as of this December, I’m pretty sure that Archie is currently the longest-running monthly comic on the stands that has never been rebooted or renumbered — but the bigger news comes from the announcement of the new creative team handling Archie’s biggest new direction yet: Mark Waid and Fiona Staples.
According to the New York Times, Waid and Staples will be giving Riverdale a “new look and an edgier tone,” and while that combination of words is usually a pretty big warning sign in the world of comics, but here, it seems like more of an extension of the publisher’s recent move away from the standard formula that marked their stories for so many years. Waid is, after all, known for bringing both a new direction to books like Flash, Fantastic Four and Daredevil that’s usually marked by optimism and heroism as much as a sense of danger. Plus, his work on the all-ages Impulse is one of my favorite things he’s ever done.
It’s worth noting that this represents a bit of a homecoming for Waid, who actually got his start at Archie as an editor before moving into writing superheroes. As for Staples, she’s done work for the company in the past, but it’s mostly been limited to covers, like the amazing Josie and the Pussycats piece that later made into a print.

Josie and the Pussycats by Fiona Staples

One assumes that no matter how edgy Archie gets, it’s probably going to be a pretty big change from her recent work on the critically acclaimed Saga.
The announcement does, however, raise a question about how fast Archie’s line is changing. Waid and Staples — especially Staples — certainly represent a departure from the familiar “house style” that has made the publisher so distinctive, pioneered by the legendary Dan DeCarlo and currently the domain of longtime Archie cartoonist Dan Parent. That visual style, along with the short-form, humor-driven stories, formed the core of Archie’s publishing lineup for decades, and while the more experimental stories are still outnumbered by the the classic stories, it does make me wonder if those are on the way out.
That said, Archie’s new direction has shown a huge amount of progress and very few missteps, and as two of the best creators working in comics, Waid and Staples look to be continuing that trend when they take over next year.
As revealed in the press release, their first story will kick off in a new Archie #1 early next year, and will focus on an origin for the Betty/Veronica/Archie love triangle. Clearly, there are at least some things that won’t be changing at all.

I always liked Archie as a kid but have no reason to keep up with the books as an adult (although I hear good things about the Life with Archie and Afterlife books). A relaunch with those two creators have me in there like swimwear.

I got a third of the Icons. I have about 8 Hardwares (including #1s) and next month I will get all the Blood Syndicate stuff.

In the 90s I used to colelct them, but I gave them all away to my baby cousins (along with all my other books) I have been slowly buying some of the classic stuff back like Secret Invasion, Civil War etc.

I love Midtown Comics though! Real talk!!

Not that recently, but it made a real strong impression. Incredibly dope stuff. I need to do a Milestone round-up myself one of these days

He shakes things up while still maintaining that classic vibe that made you fall in love with the comic in the first place. It's funny, it's action packed, there's melodrama, there's THOUGHT BALLOONS for crying out loud. Doc Ock becoming Spider-Man is ironically one of the most Spider-Man things I've ever read.

Just finished the arc where Spider-Man of 2099 comes back to 2013. Reading it in 2015 adds another layer of time travel to it. Fun stuff.

I feel like the story would have had more room to breathe in 12 issues but it was still pretty damn cool. The final issue was ill. Stoked to see, THE EVIL SUMMERS BROS move the revolution forward and, I am excited to see, SABRETOOTH fill, Logan's void. The opening to the final issue was top notch.

119. "lotsa shit"
In response to Reply # 0


          

1. Goddamn, the flu sucks. My oldest got sick Dec. 10, my duaghter is the most recent casualty and today was the first day that all 3 kids have gone to school and both parents have gone to work since then. Lisa & I had it all Christmas week and my God did i feel fucking terrible... still have a bit of the cough and there's some question of whether a bacterial infection took advantage of my repressed immune system and colonized my lungs as well. Everyone got the flu shot except lazy me who hadn't gotten around to it, and in at least the kids' case it helped lessen the impact. My wife & I were sick as dogs though.

2. BUCKSHOT rules, my dudes.
a. Check out the album cover my band comissioned: https://soundcloud.com/greenwood-burns
b. DEATH TRIP #2 - aww yeah. I want to dig up #1 and reread them both together. Love it though, psychedelic and funny and scifi and now a little murder mystery (?) all at the same time.
c. RHYME TRAVELERS #2 - "Daddy, why does FLOWWWTRON only speak in rhymes?" Also if there is a Bizzy tee in the making, put me down for 3 kids' sizes and an adult.

3. Pets
a. Did I tell you dudes that one of our chickens died? She was clearly dying in the morning, so we pulled her out of the run so the other chickens wouldn't eat her, and of course when we opened the run all the other chickens went apeshit and took off so we just left 'em out for the day. I went home at lunch to bury the poor dying girl, who was indeed already deceased, and found that another bird had been gotten by a crfitter - a big pile of feathers around a carcass denuded from the breast up to the no-longer--existent head. Probably a hawk.
b. This of course happened three days after putting one of our cats down. Rough week for the kids.
c. Looks like our last remaining hamster is on his way out as well. Still kicking, but only with half his body, like he had a little stroke or something.

4. Library books
a. The Motherless Oven - interesting, not really my thing. Dystopian-ish type thing where you know your deathday ahead of time, you build your own parents, and it rains knives. With teen drama.
b. The Twelve Gems - fun little indie space opera, black and white, reminded me a lot of the few Metal Hurlant comics I've read.
c. something else I'm forgetting but that I know I read in one sitting

5. COMICS
a. Mind MGMT - MERU vs. the ERASER, fuck yeah!
b. East of West - alright, I don't really have a feel for who this Thomas guy is but this was awesome. Guess I need to re-read.
c. Black Science - starting to sprawl a little too much for me. Still good though.
d. Memetic #3 - possibly the best, most succinct apocalypse story I've ever read. #1 was the best, #2 a slight lag, #3 a whiz bang finale. Last panel felt like a MILD copout but it was so out of left field I loved it anyhow.
e. Rasputin #3 - loving this. Not as strong as #1 or #2 but the I've always like the way Grecian plays with folklore in his writing & this is no exception though it's mostly stuff I'm unfamiliar with.

Also super excited about this Abigail & the Snowman #1 from Roger Langridge but have been saving it to read with the kids.


Happy new year, y'all -

122. "RE: lotsa shit"
In response to Reply # 119


          

A few years ago the whole family got the swine flu at the same time and I wound up with walking pneumonia for a month after that. I feel your pain. Good luck and stay hydrated.

Damn! I love both Buckshot's cover AND your music, it wound up being the soundtrack to a good chunk of my work day. I've been meaning to say for awhile that I looooove Tales to Suffice, one of these days I'm gonna have to suck it up and read the digital comics too (I just have a hard time with reading on a tablet after staring at a screen all day).

Send your hawks over, my wife's six year interest with chickens has finally come to an end. Our 2 remaining birds stopped laying over a year ago and we just don't have the heart to kill them ourselves (my son named them Peppermint Mine and Silver Hawk when he was 4, I mean c'mon). Sorry to hear about all the rough pet times, it's hard getting kids to understand.

If I was to choose one series to start reading from Mind MGMT, East of West, or Black Science (keeping in mind that great, stylish art is my first requirement, great story is second) which should it be?

Also been interested in Abigail & the Snowman. Did you read his Henson Turkey Hollow GN? Been wondering about that one.

Happy New Year to you too!

Looks like we're mostly better... hopefully it doesn't come round again.

>being the soundtrack to a good chunk of my work day.

yo, thanks! This stuff isn't really up OKP alley typically but I've made a lot of solid connections here over the years. I met Jeff on Soundcloud though (not physically - we still haven't met in person. God bless the Internet.) But it's been awesome working with someone else - stiill not as fun as playing together in person but a close second, perhaps.

(Side note - I just realized you have a URL in your sig for the first time and checked it out. Nice work, I feel like I may have seen your stuff in some of the Cricket Media mags? We read Spider, Ask, Dig, & Cricket, and got Ladybug & Click for years too.)

I really haven't done much with digital at all (except that BKV/Martin joint whose name I'm forgetting and I'm at least an issue behind on). Fortunately I lucked into a few hard copies.

This was a good year for the migration, had tons of 'em from October through late December.

My kids are mini-naturalists so they were OK with the hawk eating it. The cat just up & "dying" was worse. The most tragic death of all was when Speckles, aged approximately 2 weeks, was loved to death by my over--enthusiastic daughter about two hours into her stay with us. "Daddy, something's wrong with Speckles's neck!!!"

(Love the names, though... sounds like the kids would get along pretty well!)

>If I was to choose one series to start reading from Mind MGMT,

Hmm I would say East of West... Black Science is busier and probably flashier, but I think East of West has a much better sense of design.

>Also been interested in Abigail & the Snowman. Did you read
>his Henson Turkey Hollow GN? Been wondering about that one.

I'll let you know how it is. Didn't read Turkey Hollow - I think I remember considering it but it's hazy.

In response to Reply # 126


          

Thanks! Haven't gotten anything into those mags yet but I'm glad you brought it up, I need to send stuff to those people. 95% of my work is in animation and mostly for uncredited commercials but kids books/magazines/apps is something I've been trying to shift towards.

Looks like the feed store we get our chicken food from is willing to take the chickens and sell them as non-laying pets. Or that's just what they say when they want some free chicken stew.

Just put East of West on library hold, I'll report back - thanks for the rec (also just got Zero in because you guys have been raving about it, looking forward to checking that out).

Really gotta stop sneezing on my books as my calling card.

We were definitely going through it around these parts over the holiday break. Crazy ass month, it was.

Again, it was a blast working on your album cover. Jamming to it now. And I'm so glad you and the fam enjoyed the comics!

Hope you're reading it in your best "Big Daddy Kane rapping into a desk fan" voice!

We are looking at getting the book a little more "out there" this year. No plans for merch yet but that's a tempting thought.

I wanna check out Twelve Gems and Memetic, and get caught back up on Mind Mgmt.

To be honest we haven't read it out loud yet but I know all three kids have snuck peeks. The question was verbbatim from my 9 y.o.

I'll try the voice though. I like it.

MGMT sort of lagged there for a bit but there's been some serious action last arc, resulting in a slimmed-down cast. I think next arc is more backstory on the Eraser, which could be good, maybe not. It's still hard to pick up everything.

I think you'll dig Memetic, man.

Those guys make a good team, and it's neat seeing them bring those sunny vibes to such a cold, cosmic character. I wasn't blown away by the first issue, but the 2 story arcs contained in that first trade added up to a good time. I'm killing it with the library trades lately if I do say so myself.

and yeah, I'm pretty convinced that ILLin' is the most efficient legal way to get large quantities of comics read, especially when it's stuff you want to read but don't feel like you need to own.

129. "**stumbles in here** Um, hey everyone"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm so far behind with everything I have no idea where to start. Perusing the list, I see a few trades that I can pick up. Believe or not, I still read the occasional trade ("caught up" on Astro City). And it looks like I'm waaaaay behind on the output on Mr. Defunct.

So, my personal big news is that I'm a home-owner now. Wife and I bought a home about 20-minutes from Oakland/Berkeley, so I'm going to be officially a suburbanite. Probably not moving into it until mid to late February. On a comic-related note, I've got to figure out the proper way of moving/storing my single issues. Plus where I'm putting all the trades.

Glad to see everyone else is staying on the one here.

Will be 31 years old next month!!!!!!!

Cold outside. This winter is cray!
I work at a huuuuge 600,000 square foot retail property, I am the commander in chief of housekeeping. I have a team, I belay orders and, I drive 30 minutes to/from...on a good day! I dig it though. Lotsa responsibility.

I live with my gf in a tiny little (but badass) apartment on the eastside of downtown. Look up the Denver Museum of Natural History, we are about 1 1/2 miles due East.

I will be proposing to the gf this year. Fams are stoked. Out of contact with my dad and his family though, time will heal.

I have made the full transition to punk. Hiphop bores me. I get nostalgic once in a while.

I am a huge fan of any of the zines carnagenyc.com puts out. These are ill as well: http://artprimo.com/catalog/wavy-red-border-egg-shell-sticker-pack-p-3958.html

I am very happy. Every Sunday the lady and I eat somewhere new and fancy. When the weather is nice, we head up to the mountains for two day trips. Did it all spring and summer.
This year we plan to hike/explore Southern CO and roadtrip to New Mexico.

Still in the graff. Lordy!

In response to Reply # 143


          

...how Dan Slott is writing this as Dr. Who fan fiction (which I'm totally cool with as a DW fan since the early 80s). People that are aware of who the Doctor is generally aren't crazy about him being on their planet because his presence tends to coincide with terrible things happening. Folks associate the Surfer with being the prep chef for someone who's going to eat their planet, makes sense that word wouldn't have gotten around that he's not that guy anymore.

I just caught this today.

(And as an aside, one comment on the article I read led me to believe Logan is dead? They killed Logan? Did they do that before or after Disney bought them? Seems like you'd want to keep him around for the valuation at least...)

Movie money just rules all, huh? Well I'm not reading any Marvel at the moment and I'm happy for it. It's a damn shame Image can't get sales #s like Marvel does, the quality on those books is soooo insanely better...

AND

Movie money is wack cuz Flash + Arrow on CW >>>>> every movie Marvel has released since X-Men: First Class combined.

i am positive it won't be a hard, DC style reboot. the history of the Marvel Universe will be preserved and in continuity. Ultimately (see what I did there), I think it kills the Ultimate Universe, moves Miles Morales over, and retcons a bunch of mutants into Inhumans. That's it.

like Green Lantern was still a sprawling hot mess and all the fun of the Morrison Batman's was just out the window. And they didn't do anything to cull the Super-universe that well and crossover stuff just became ten times more confusing.

The book that really seemed to catch it well was the Flash and as it turns out that was pretty much just pre-drafts for TV scripts, which I'm not mad at at all. I was honestly mainly disappoitned when the "Speed Force" returned within the first 10 issues and I"m dreading the day the TV show says those words, too...

But if Marvel can deliver me a CLEAN X-Men #1? Sheeeeeeit, I might even read an X-Men book.

I think that MARVEL continues to take risks and evolve for the better. I read a ton of MARVEL, very good books.

For the record, I WILL BE PISSED if the reboot fucks around with BENDIS' XMEN run.

I am confident that, HICKGOD will steer the ship in a fun and intriguing direction. LADY THOR, MEAN STARK, BLACK CAP and maybe, BLACK SPIDEY has a ton of potential for fresh storytelling.

In response to Reply # 156


  

          

but the look of it all really keeps it interesting, which is interesting in and of itself because it's a story so centered around image and image worship.

But if you mapped out the actual "plot" which occurred within the first five issues, and even if you mapped out the "character" elements, it's a bit sparse. But then you think it would be hard to condense when there's so much expansive art, sooo...

Anyway I'll be copping the 2nd trade. I like the landscape they've created. I'd love to see them really put it into motion.

one book (Drifer #3) that the first two volumes were okay but I'm not pressed to hit the shop just for #3.

Reading some stuff from the library though:

-Fables vol. 20, I think, 'Camelot.' Sigh. I think Fables has left the building. I was kind of with it through the Mr. Dark bit, and I may have missed a volume or two, but just didn't enjoy this volume that much.

-The Wrenchies (Farel Dalrymple OGN): I loved Omega the Unknown, but have had trouble with Farel's other stuff. This one's (a bit) more straight ahead storytelling and has a lot of fun stuff going on. I wouldn't say I 'get' it 100% but I get it a lot more than the last one I read by him and I'm getting a kick out of it. Seems to comment on the same meta ideas that Multiversity is riffing on - the power of comic books as dimensional portrayals and/or portals. Plus, postapocalyptic kids kicking ass.

-Bumperhead (G. Hernandez): I've only read a handful of Love & Rockets books. They're always good though, and this isn't the first to give me a Clowesian vibe throughout - capturing awkardness throughout life, even brief phase where the subject is cool. Plenty of fun & pathos.

This arc was called PLANET OF THE SYMBIOTES, it took 3 or 4 issues to get to the damned PLANET OF THE SYMBIOTES. The origin story was rad. It should have been done over two issues.

In response to Reply # 0


          

http://www.clockwork-comics.com/

whole book is available online.

Picked it up out of the library earlier this week and was pretty much engrossed in it. Well-researched piece of historical fiction about a real 'automaton' that played chess against some bigwigs, including Ben Franklin, Napoleon, Maria Theresa, etc. Spoke well to my history-geek side. A/A-



Also, picked up a Joe Ollman book that's a collection of early stuff. The first story broke my heart. Looking forward to reading the rest.

As first apostle of the church of HICKGOD, this won't surprise you. But as much as I like the story, the art and the colors steal the show. I believe it's the same time hickman worked with on Secret, but it's turned up to 11 here. Book is done completely in white, grey, and red, and the feel is soooooooo creepy. The underground kingdom guys will give you night terrors.

this Garfield: His 9 Lives project sounds interesting. I was clueless about the TV special, of course, but hey, Frazer Irving drawing Garfield (for one of the 9 issues, anyway) is going to be worth looking into, and hell, the actual book sounds like something my kids might really enjoy.

These Marvel Star Wars books have been very good, surprisingly so. The new Darth Vader one had some cool character moments (Vader just killing sand people because of his hatred for them) and new characters (a Wookie bounty hunter? How did it take this long to have one of them).

And the time jump Walking Dead has moved very slowly, but when you have a girl who has no qualms wearing the faces of zombies licking Carl Grimes eye socket scars, things get a little more interesting. I still want to see what the hell happened to Michonne though, c'mon people.

233. "I've been reading it to my 7 year old"
In response to Reply # 222


          

Just the 1st trade so far, but he really loves it (so do I). I read through it first and didn't see anything in there that was too inappropriate for him. We also read Ms. Marvel together but there are some things I self-censor as we go along (I particularly remember Kamala's mom warning her about date rape in one issue and kinda didn't want to get into that with him at this point). He reads his own comics but those are two he likes for me to read aloud because I do voices and he REALLY likes to just look at the art (he could do way worse than Alphona & Allred in that department).

I think the only reason SS is marked T+ is for marketing. They know the adult comics audience is less likely to pick up a book labelled All Ages because that equals Kids to them. Even if the content is the same, the 30 somethings in the shop don't want to be seen as buying kids comics for themselves. All ages really should mean ALL ages and I think SS definitely represents that and could be rated that way.

Coming back to comics these last few years and seeing how the access for my son is vs. the way it was for me is a little frustrating. I'm all for comics being a medium that is not aimed just at kids but 2 big things irk me.

1) There are no monthly books (that I'm aware of) from Marvel/DC that are in continuity that kids know are okay for them and can just grab and feel like they're invested in those larger universes. When I was nine and reading New Mutants I didn't feel like I was reading a kids book (at least not till Brett Blevins started drawing and I stopped reading) but I also didn't feel like I was reading anything that I was gonna get in trouble for from my heavily Catholic parents. I was being introduced to topics that were a little more lower case "a" adult - relationship stuff, etc - but I wasn't going to see somebody's face getting cut off their head. Their isn't any in-continuity Batman for a 9 year old to read and he is by far the most popular character among 9 year olds. Silver Surfer and, to some degree, Ms. Marvel (and probably Squirrel Girl and a few others I haven't read yet) could be marketed to a wider range audience but as soon as there's a whiff of "okay for kids" the older fans won't buy it.

2) As a kid, I got all my comics at the gas station up the road while my parent's were pumping gas. I have a hard time imagining any kids finding comics unless their parents are regular readers (like the folks here) that go to their local shop. Now that the Direct market is largely the only way to get comics how are kids supposed to find them? When I was 11 I started riding my bike the 3 miles to the gas station and would spend an hour on the floor going through all the comics on the rack (could generally only get 1 or 2 a month). That's how I became aware of other stories and got interested in trying out other books (Alpha Flight! West Coast Avengers!) Even if I do bring my kid to the shop I have to hurry him past the "regular" comics to the kids section because so much of it is either girls with giant boobs or lots and lots of blood. How's a kid supposed to find Silver Surfer amidst that?

In response to Reply # 233


          

and may well be missing one or two of them.

> he
>REALLY likes to just look at the art

I remember a few years ago, reading one of the Muppet Show books, and my kids pointed out before I'd even noticed that there was a fill-in artist that week. Made me so proud.

It's funny, I've always been much less of an art guy as far as the comics go, but I've gotten way more confident in my assessments of artwork. There's still only a handful of artists that I recognize on a regular basis, but it's a big difference over where I was a decade ago.


>I think the only reason SS is marked T+ is for marketing...
>All ages really should mean ALL ages and I think SS definitely
>represents that and could be rated that way.

Preaching to the choir. Most of the all ages stuff I read with the kids really IS all ages, meaning I enjoy it on a fairly visceral level too. It's not something most creative & editing teams seem to get though.


>1) There are no monthly books (that I'm aware of) from
>Marvel/DC that are in continuity that kids know are okay for
>them and can just grab and feel like they're invested in those
>larger universes.

Hmmm. See I don't give a hoot about continuity... a good title can be a great introduction to the greater universe without having any continuity with it.
I think DC has done far far better at this than Marvel... Tiny Titans and Superman Family Adventures had a cast of hundreds. The Batman: The Brave & the Bold TV show, and to a lesser extent the Sholly Fisch comic, were painted with an incredibly broad brush. In fact my kids just watched the final episode of BTBATB (still on the DVR, I won't let my wife delete it) and it's as amazing as ever.
They've had some misses too - Li'l Gotham, much of the Billy Batson series, the Green Lanternn and Batman CGI shows (which weren't terrible but weren't good and weren't particularly u12-friendly).

Meanwhile, Marvel has had just about all misses, by my count. (not counting Ms. Marvel or Squirrel Girl, which I'm viewing as YA books at this point.) The Li'l Marvels issuue I read was SO bad. The little Hulks or whatever it was called had one decent joke. And the cartoons... my kids didn't even get into Ultimate Spider-man, Agents of SmASH, or that one where the Silver Surfer talked like a surfer dude. They really don't compare to Teen Titans, Teen Titans GO! (which I love), BTBATB, or (for older kids and me) Young Justice or JLU.


>2)I have a hard time

LIBRARIES, dude!

I blame the library in large part for developing my habit since I started out reading stuff fro the library, never thinking I'd turn into someone who'd go to a shop regularly.
Our library has 5 comics sections (kids', YA, manga (by the YA section, but not filed with the other YA comics), New Adult Comics endcap, adult comics) , so i realize we're lucky and uncharacteristic. Two of my alternate libraries has ALL comics in the YA section, which is a terrible mistake I've mentioned to the librarian but she just shrugged and said 'we know.'

Even my kids' school library has plenty of comics, including Bone, Amulet, Calvin & Hobbes, Peanuts, Zita, Big Nate, etc. And the school book fair's selection is never awesome, but there are usually at least a few series on display/sale.

i liked Eva running around playing in the timeline...and the notion that the Prof has probably been involved in more hijinks that he made himself forget...

I'd love if there could be some atonement moment for him to shake the pariah funk. He's given all of his chirren away, so I'm interested to see how/if he's allowed to come home.

Aaaaaaaaaand it moves way too fast. I hate how the ramifications of, Ian's death have yet to be dealt with.

This issue was quiet but damn satisfying. I think some MAJOR shit is on the horizon.
The BATTLE BEAST/THRAGG fight is ill and I think the payoff will be cray.
Earth folk not too pleased with ROBOT TAKEOVER.
VILTRUMITE MUSTACHE GANG and ROBOT GANG alliance? Likely will not last.
And the commentary on the BIG 2 is great.
Such a great title.

the fact that they kept it so quiet and then you get two pages of this BIG fight in the middle, was awesome...

...i liked everyone's reaction to them leaving and Mark STILL hasn't dealt with "the event", and we all know that's gonna cause i problem with his lady

The font was the first major thing, but there's something about the actual cover art as well...

The inside artwork is much more standard J. Bone fare.

Michael Cho "Shoplifter" - slice of life drama about a young woman in the big city unsure of where life is taking her. It's not really any clearer at the end of the book. It's got that annoying black-white-annd-pink palette, but the artwork as a whole is great, sort of Darwyn Cookeish but a hint less cartoony. I wasn't exactly surprised when I saw that the first acknowledgment was a thanks to Chip Kidd. B/B-, worth a borrow from the library


Jane Yolen & co. 'Curses! Foiled Again!' - fun sequel to the book about a young fencer in NYC who becomes Defender of Faerie. More YA than a kids' book, but I might sign it out for my 10 y.o. (!) this summer when he goes to fencing day camp for a few weeks. (It's a strange life in the modern suburbs.)

American Gods - yeah, not a comic but coulda been. Actually I can't figure out why no one made a movie of this while Stan Lee was still young enough to play Wednesday.

Big Hero 6 - actually, didn't read anything; I got #1 of the reboot a few years back and it was terrible, so I was surprised at the movie. It wasn't great, for sure, but it was much better than I expected. (Kids loved it, too.)
