Good news, MRP. Our dog is (we think) nearly 18 now, and has been "pawing at the exit door" a couple of times - kidney disorder & arthritis - but has bounced back from both after medication. Every...

1. Chuck Berry - Johnny B Goode
2. Elvis Presley - Jailhouse Rock
3. The Beatles (including their solo careers) - Norwegian Wood is about the only song I can tolerate
4. The Supremes (including...
Superior Spider-Man has been fabulous, much better than I expected. Thor's been a bit of a slow-burner - wasn't sure at first but getting into it now. To be honest though, the ones I'm really...
Um.. no. Apparently there are at least 2 of us that don't like it
Either the people who don't like this aren't replying, or I'm the only one not enjoying this, but ... my god, this sucks - the writing and art are just terrible. F4 over the years has always really...
Yep - that's where I would drop it as well (and wished I had done). That's around 180 or so, from memory. The JRjr issues were terrible in both art and story, and the book had well and truly jumped...
I thought you said you weren't Desperate, Dan.
Easy (100 possible points)
Who are the five founding Avengers? (5 points each)
Ant-Man, Wasp, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk
In what four identities does a certain time-traveling scientist from the 31st...
Marsden and Paquin were beyond terrible in all of the X-films - they could cast a bundle of 2x4 timber as Cyclops and it would still be in improvement on Marsden.
Same as Ish and Dan, when I was a kid, comics were everywhere, and it seems to have been pretty standard in Britain for parents to buy kids a comic every week to be delivered with the papers. The...
That's a classic Kirby image for me - if you like Kirby it's a fabulous panorama full of detail and you're in the story and move on to the next image. If you're not a fan, it's full of annoying...
I wasn't very impressed, to be honest. It's all a logical outgrowth of the world with basically a god class, able to do anything, but I found it all really quite dull and rarher a let down after...
That actually put me off reading L&R for years - I saw the first ads for it, which included Luba, and thought it was just another dumbass indie T&A comic, so never bothered to try it.
Don't think I've ever even seen a copy of CBG. Has made me rather nostalgic for The Comic Reader, though
I'm tempted to question your sanity, but that's unfair - everyone has their own favourites and preferred styles and all that, and I guess MacGregor could be slightly wordy whereas Kirby's dialogue...
My major objection is that from the way his left hand is drawn, it looks like his fingers are extended enough that his thumb couldn't reach the bottle neck, and so leaves me wondering why he has a...
Well, New 52 was a success in the sense that it actually got me to try a number of the titles, where I'd avoided like the proverbial plague. Unfortunately, all the ones I tried sucked to one degree...
So, did the 2nd part of this interview ever get published?
This month - it's all part of the Superior storyline.
Going back to the prices paid for ASM700, according to Bleeding Cool, the Ditko variant cover has been going for over $1000 on ebay. Madness.
Did the 2nd half of the Bendis interview ever get published?
I was lucky enough to miss the whole of the 90s - I think I baled last time in 86 or 87 (about 1 year after CoIE, whenever that was), and didn't really come back until about 2004 or so. Looking back,...
Make or break year for me, I think, though this is more related to current than classic comics. I want to see a lot more enjoyment from what I'm reading over the next 6 months than I've had from the...
First ever purchased for me would be an early TV21 circa 1966. I can remember reading some early Marvels on the spinner rack in the local newsagent/barber's shop around the same time, but TV21 would...
Biggest surprise for me is the love for Prez. I only ever read a couple of issues when it came out (the vampire one, and one other than I can't remember) but thought it was awful, so (while...
I agree it doesn't really belong here, but while it is, I'll dive in and say it's a ludicrous knee-jerk reaction. I have no idea (or interest) what's happening in Teen Titans, but the first issue of...
