The Savage Dragon

[sonicx1977]

I always liked the mysterie of Dragon and Logan. Liked both origins, but the mysterie is gone. Wolverine is gone from my pull list too, Dragon not.

Just read the latest issue, 179 i believe.

No spoilers here, I'm just excited that stuff is happening in a comic book for once. No pontificating without action; amazingly, they both happen.. Pontificaction?.. hmm.. no.. that won't work at all.. whatever.. good read, stuff blows up, heads get removed from bodies, I'm happy.

It's the reason i always liked the title (willingness to do whatever he wants, fans or critics be damned!).

My brother has all the issues I have missed (real life! damn you!) and I can't wait to lock myself in a room with some beer and snacks (ventilation too..) and catch up to this point.

Though if someone could fill me in on Mighty Man's current status, I'd be appreciative. I.E. why is his human form a... you know what? i won't say it in case its a spoiler..

That happened in 170 so it's not big spoiler. Basically Ann transferred her powers to her daughter when she was pregnant.

I hope that the hc's collection will continue like Spawn Origins HC

In Italy it's nearly impossible read the first volumes: this series has published so far by four publisher and the only available stuff are of the last publisher

I stopped reading Savage Dragon back in...2003 I think. It was the year that only, like, two issues or so came out. I picked up the latest issue for my Invincible collection and I have to say...the art has really slipped! I am just not a fan at all!

Very cool.

So, Savage Dragon is kickass lately, everybody on CBR reading it? Easily the most consistently excellent comic book on planet Earth.

I'm highly pumped for Ultimate Collection 1 finally hitting us in July it looks like. Hopefully we'll see Collection 2 solicited for sometime in 2012 too.

Now here's a question I'm sure has been answered before, but how many different versions of the original mini-series story are there? I've read it in the three single issues, and also the first version of the trade (1993 printing), which included the short important Debbie story and some extra pages. The solicit mentions this Ultimate Collection includes The Dragon 1-5 (the expanded version of the mini) plus ongoing #1-7. So my question, is The Dragon further expanded compared to the 1993 trade? Just curious.

In any of it's forms, definitely classic must read stuff.

[Dark-Flux]

Is the Ultimate collection definetly out for July or is that a placeholder?
Looking forward to it, just hope they come out at a steady pace.

Met Eric Larsen at a comic con. He is one of the coolest dudes in comics. Straight up. Not a fake thing about him.

If the comic industry had a Presidency. I would vote for him.

Agreed. He goes above and beyond for his fans; people he has never met. Class act all the way.

Yeah, like Brandon says, the book ages. Usually if a year passes in real time, the book has gone through a year also. So we've pretty much grown up with Malcolm.

This is one of the coolest things in comics. I've always loved the realistic time scale that Savage Dragon utilizes.
