How they discuss the whole thing with Alec Holland not really being the last Swamp thing is pretty cool. i'll keep going with it.<br /><br />I actually liked OMAC also. But I'm a sucker for Keith Giffen doing his Kirby impersonation. We'll see how it goes but i don't really have too much hope for it.<br /><br />I think that's all the DC stuff I got. The main books look horrible.<br /><br />I'll tell you what one of the best books out there lately is: Avenger- The Children's Crusade.<br />The story is great and the art is pretty good also. I always thought that Young Avengers was a good book and this is even better. Cool stuff going on with Dr. Doom and The Scarlet Witch. I hope the story wraps up well. Most good Marvel comics end up having terrible endings.Strfkrnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3916635505149843426.post-48784594084101272382011-09-23T10:51:32.004-07:002011-09-23T10:51:32.004-07:00Heidi Macdonald has been kind enough to host a Mar...Heidi Macdonald has been kind enough to host a Marvelous Coma afterparty over at The Beat, but I thought I would invite everyone over here for a few more after after Cock Tales.....<br /><br />Brad<br />09/22/2011 AT 9:49 AM<br />This is fantastic:<br /><br />“What I didn’t know 22 years ago but I pretend to know now is that good superhero comics have always been written for adults, but with a simplicity of delivery. You don’t and you can’t write comics for teenagers.”<br /><br />jacob goddard<br />09/22/2011 AT 9:53 AM<br />I would buy Avengers written and drawn by CF in a heartbeat.<br />Just as soon as he finishes POWR MASTRS<br /><br />Mikael<br />09/22/2011 AT 10:49 AM<br />More high-fiving for the aren’t-we-so-clever crowd. I found nothing great about the review at all.<br /><br />Synsidar<br />09/22/2011 AT 11:11 AM<br />I thought the review was great, although DC let problems stay unsolved for decades. There wasn’t any need to have multiple versions of Superman, Green Lantern, et al. or to rationalize that they existed on parallel Earths. They could have merged the versions by editorial fiat decades ago, or established cutoff points — in the ’70s, for example — and ignored what was written before the cutoff points. The Crises were totally unnecessary as an editorial matter.<br /><br />Allowing a creator to interpret a character as he wishes — Frank Miller on Batman, for example — is entirely separate from the idea of there being multiple versions of a character. Establishing boundaries that can’t be crossed is pretty easy.<br /><br />While Marvel’s Ultimates line might have been intended to be an updated version of the M.U., as Chippendale noted, its mission was a failure.<br /><br />SRS<br /><br />Justin H.<br />09/22/2011 AT 11:45 AM<br />I thought this was a fantastic review, and the shots at the Wonder Man deal in Avengers warmed the cockles of my nearly dead heart.<br /><br />UPTURNED POLO SHIRT COLLARS ARE THE FUTURE<br /><br />Chris Hero<br />09/22/2011 AT 12:02 PM<br />@jacob goddard<br /><br />Yes! A million times yes!<br /><br />Kevin Hynes<br />09/22/2011 AT 2:55 PM<br />Agreed with the review. Basically how I saw Justice League:<br /><br />BATMAN POSE.<br /><br />GREEN LANTERN POSE.<br /><br />SUPERMAN I AM, CAN I POSE TOO?!<br /><br />GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.<br /><br />GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.<br /><br />WE JUSTICE LEAGUE!<br /><br />JesseBlazeSnider<br />09/22/2011 AT 5:42 PM<br />Agree with Mikael.<br /><br />Too clever is dumb. And this guy does not know WHAT he is talking about on a lot of levels. Grumpy old fan. Just because there are elements of truth to what he is saying does not mean his assumptions are even close to correct.<br /><br />Zach<br />09/22/2011 AT 10:16 PM<br />That’s why I never let my son draw.<br /><br />Brynocki D<br />09/22/2011 AT 11:22 PM<br />ahahah aaa. He’s a grumpy old fan that loves Gantz, The Whale and the new Animal Man relaunch. Those are titles from like the 70’s right? You guys must be big Jim Lee fans, he’s brand new right? How do you high five online? Do I need a Wii for that? Tell me clever guys…<br /><br />Brynocki E<br />09/22/2011 AT 11:58 PM<br />Allrite I had Frankie from Frankie goes to Hollywood come and read over the review and these comments and he thinks that all of it, all our writing taken as one work, gives a total view of the comic landscape and we should be proud.<br /><br />The Beat<br />09/23/2011 AT 1:12 AM<br />Brynocki, don’t ever change.<br /><br />sam<br />09/23/2011 AT 10:21 AM<br />If you don’t like something and explain why, that’s criticism, and most people are OK with that because you can engage with it.<br /><br />If you don’t like something and just say you don’t like it, that’s a simple statement of opinion, and you can’t really engage with that, but it does no harm.<br /><br />If you don’t like something and say so, but don’t say why, PLUS you insult the person who made it, that’s just ad hominem. It justifiably invites ridicule.Brynocki Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05353945918322353328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3916635505149843426.post-12208896175175662352011-09-22T10:59:47.364-07:002011-09-22T10:59:47.364-07:00Wonder Woman is great and a bit loopy, although Ch...Wonder Woman is great and a bit loopy, although Chiang's art seems a little rushed compared to his Dr 13 stuff.

I picked up Wonder Woman yesterday, it's on the pile. As for CF on Wonder Man or anything, i'll send him a limited edition cassette release with an appeal.Brynocki Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05353945918322353328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3916635505149843426.post-77212157531668594502011-09-22T08:16:53.564-07:002011-09-22T08:16:53.564-07:00Animal Man was cool.
