--Has there ever been a quicker drop off in a title as the Alpha Flight change from Byrne to Mantlo? Thing was what hurt the book most for me wasn't Mantlo, but the strange (at least to my 14 year...
Realistically, how much longer to the next reboot?
Kind of had an epiphany, if you can use such a word in relation to comic books---
The New DC, by and large, sucks. Oh my God, I can't believe I put so much faith into it and I can't believe so...
That JSA just seems like a no brainer--it is shocking that they haven't done it yet. There is at least three volumes of material, it is relatively new so not a lot of restoration work would have to...
I know they are advertising it as a replacement to the essential format, but it would seem to intrude on the masterworks format some as well. Now I grab an essential here and there especially the...
Did you ever read Roger Stern's Avengers run? Now I love the run; it was really good. But Stern, although not a self insert, really put a lot of "mary sue" qualities in Captain marvel. Every issue...
I've always found him to be a bit of attention whore, but generally pleasant.
Historically comic book editors have not always been perceived to be nice people (Mort Weisenger, Robert Kanigher, Jim Shooter), so if a hypothetical editor comes on a public internet message board...
I wonder how bad sales would have to be to go back to the old old Dc universe. Pre crisis DC.
I second this very worthwhile idea.
--I personally blame anime style. Don't get me wrong, I don't think that was the major problem inciting the event. But I think the reason comics have never completely come back is due to anime...
I was too:wink:
(I don't think I own any Disney any longer; I went back to letting professionals pick after getting my ass kicked on railroad stocks. That damn baby on those commercials makes...
It doesn't really work that way, Kevin. Once a year, usually at the end of the fiscal year, I get a little pamphlet that explains what Disney has done in the past year and some general information...
Girlfriend and I are are thinking about going to San Diego as our yearly adult trip (past years have been Boston, Phillie, and Charleston). She's not a comic book fan, but she is incredibly...
--Lot of self hating comic book fans in this thread. I mean really: Power Girl's costume makes me embarrassed to be a comic book fan cause others might think I'm pervy. You aren't embarrassed by...
Would love to see the New Gods adapted to multiple movie cartoon arc.
--And I think its day is done, but I always imagined Preacher as an HBO series.
Well if you like back issues---
there was a series called Darkhawk in the early 90's
Nova in the late 70's
Chuck Dixon's 1990's Robin stories had high school scenarios
the New Mutants of the...
I wonder if the ending of Icons will be when Rob was kicked out because he was trying to poach Michael Turner---seems like a natural ending, if a little unflattering to Rob
Brain Boy is an interesting concept, but their other licensed Gold Key books didn't do that well.
--great issue
--If they had done this storyline with Mary Jane and Peter married, then sex would have be automatic (well...maybe not automatic, but considering the average married couple have sex...
Surprisingly, I am enjoying this storyline immensely. Some of the best plotting I've seen in years. I do cringe when I see those pop culture references, I do prefer "timelessness" in comics but...
Maybe issue 700 was a little off paced (and maybe a little bloated)---but this is the most interesting and unique spider story in years. I think you have to go back to the 90's clone story when a...
I liked the series, but...
1) I have a certain discomfort in watching Cap and Allies battle Ironman and allies after fifteen years (in continuity) of being teammates putting everything on the...
That's not completely true--Shooter initiated the return of artwork, added health insurance to freelancers, and standardized incentives (royalties) at Marvel. If you are saying he pissed off some...
