That's from the '80s, although I agree that nothing else is close.

It's decent. Wonderful art, but a so-so story. To be honest, the overall plot involving Batman was not as interesting as the world-building and society stuff that was going on-- I would have...

Definitely got to disagree on Bruce Jones. The guy has written some of the finest horror and adventure comics in the history of the medium. He just wasn't particularly suited to work on your...

I'd also recommend Bad Company from 2000AD if you're a fan of Milligan, Ewins, and Jim McCarthy. (I actually prefer that material to Johnny Nemo because I had read Nemo so long after its original...

I think it could have been a pretty cool 4-5 issue Thor arc that was padded out into a huge crossover with some of the worst art I've ever seen. Tom Grindberg was a pretty steady artist, but he...

It's not much of a spy story at all. More like old-school superheroics with some interesting twists. (Wisdom has more of the spy element, but even that is more superhero. It also has the coolest...

They're both very, very good. I prefer Hellboy because of Mignola's, Corben's, and Fegredo's art, but you really can't go wrong with either book. (Bucky is no slouch himself.) However, BPRD is...

I'd recommend Paul Cornell's semi-recent Captain Britain and MI-13 and its predecesor Wisdom MAX. Both were really fun series, and the Vampire State arc featuring Dracula was one of the best...

I think the primary appeal of Cloak and Dagger, much like Ghost Rider, is a incredibly striking visual design with its contrast between darkness and light. Also, much like Ghost Rider, I don't think...

Baron Winters had pretty significant roles in Alan Moore's Swamp Thing and Neil Gaiman's Books of Magic. I can't think of any apearances for the other characters.

Swamp Thing and Animal Man. The previous volume of ST was selling under 10,000 a month. Obviously, Snyder's name brought in attention, but I think the major difference was the first week...

Hey, I really like most Roger Stern comics! (For what they are...)

If I were to boil Vertigo's early failures down to a soundbite, I'd say the problem was "Hey, we have creators with something to...

You definitely need to read Love and Rockets at some point to be considered a comics fan. There's a lot of great books that have suggested, but I'd like to especially recommend Starstruck and Blue...

I think part of the problem with some of the early Vertigo launch titles was that Vertigo was trying to establish itself as a purveyor of challenging material filled with wild ideas, and while the...

They can probably get DJ Qualls on a limited basis (if he intends to return). He's a regular on Jim Jeffires' Legit on FX, but that only runs 12-13 episode seasons. (I'm not a fan of Jeffries'...

Except for the Prosser run, Animal Man after Milligan is certainly worth reading. The remainder of the Tom Veich run attempts at an epic storyline that never quite comes together, but they're still...

Kees, I think the biggest shift as far as the early '80s in terms of North American comics is that creator-driven series were actually being seen as finacially viable for a wide audience rather than...

I think the major reason why people find Daenerys disappointing later in the season is because her story was responsible for so much of the world-building that goes on earlier in the series because...

As a rule, those lists tend to be split between bonafide classic series that were around for a while or newer stuff that has a great deal of critical acclaim. Starstruck had a few short stories, an...

When I saw the title of the press release, I thought the same thing. My mind was about to explode that they had been able to negotiate the rights from all the various creators, especially since...

He is nominated for Best Cover Artist. Yuko Simuzu from The Unwritten is also nominated in the Best Cover Artist category.

I think the biggest slight from the list of nominations is Glyn Dillon...

Uh, just don't remind Kurt about Spider-Man/X-Factor: Shadowgames.

It was serialized in another magazine-- I want to say Deadline-- before it was collected and finished at Vertigo.

Veitch drew the bulk of Moore's ST after the Gotham storyline. He also wrote and drew a great single issue featuring Metron and Swampy attempting to breach the Source. Rick and Alan were and still...

It was the best Legion run in the past fifteen years. I wasn't enthralled with Legion Lost-- it was good, but not quite great-- but I felt the ongoing that followed was genuinely interesting and...
