What utter cowardice. More proof that Bob Harras is the worst editor in the history of comic books.
Definitely. In pre-modern Western culture, creativity and originality was less valued than faithfulness to established sources.
I haven't read this book (though I've had a copy of it for years), but Albert Lord and his teacher Milman Parry were massively important figures in the study of media. Other books that address...
Not to excuse Millar's horribly offensive comments, but I don't think he actually said the second quotation -- it appears to be someone else's description of Millar's position. See here:...
I already posted this request on Classic Comics, but I'll post it here too because different people might see it.
For an academic project I'm currently working on, I'd like as much information as...
For an academic project I'm currently working on, I'd like as much information as possible as to how comic books are currently manufactured and printed, and how that process has changed over time. In...
Avatar is not anime because it was not produced in Japan, but it's heavily influenced by anime. It's also an absolutely brilliant show. Your kid has good taste.
For me, at this point in my life...
I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who has a habit of buying comics twice. I do that all the time, and I've never come up with a reliable system for preventing it, although I've tried.

I guess I'm a web fan since I had no significant contact with other fans until I discovered CBR. I have a blog post about this topic here.
I assume you mean #367, not #267.
It doesn't say when that page was created, but it looks like page
svp, when I say "best known," I really mean that it's famous among people who are interested in this kind of thing... It actually...
Now that's interesting.
By the way, for some context, Tom Phillips created this book, A Humument, by taking an obscure Victorian novel, A Human Document by W.H. Mallock, and painting over each of...
Omaha the Cat Dancer
In class the other day, I used that Comic Sans Criminal page as an example of how the Internet has allowed non-professional typographers to create their own typography, with both good and bad...
I was thinking Thor #297 or #298 because the dragon could have been Fafnir, but Fafnir looks completely different in those issues. And Thor #343 is out because it's obviously not a Simonson Thor.

This is from an artist's book called A Humument by Tom Phillips. Can anyone tell me the source of the image of Thor and the dragon at the bottom of the...
I seem to recall that in Thor: The Mighty Avenger, Roger Langridge had some explanation for why the Asgardians spoke in Shakespearean English, but I can't recall what it was.
Incidentally, I find...
Shut up, Wesley.

I skimmed this issue in the store and was annoyed that it seemed to have nothing in common with the original Amethyst.
The technical term for this kind of thing is transmedia storytelling, which means developing content in multiple media at once, taking advantage of the strengths of each individual medium. When...
An especially weird case is the backup story in DNAgents #4, which is about a famous entertainer who is secretly dyslexic. Ironically, the pages of the story were printed out of order. I believe...
Creators, except in the case of the Legion of Super-Heroes, and I'll even stop reading Legion comics if the writing is terrible -- for example, Legion Lost volume 2.
