Great music choice. I wasn't going to check this out, but now I want to. I'll see if there isn't some kind of pull list maneuvering I can pull off.

Retailer Summit - DC News - Revived Titles!

On Oct 12, 2009 10:13 PM

I love this news. Such a great concept. Definitely takes the sting out of delays. I just hope this is the only delay we run into. I'm really excited about the latest news regarding Brian Azzarello's First Wave. I know it's not completely new news, but I'm excited for a Doc Savage ongoing. The art by Rags Morales on the intro miniseries is just stunning. I think I'm going to fall in love with ...

The iFanboy Letter Column - 10/02/2009

@hailscott: If you haven't checked it out already, try Freakangels by Warren Ellis. It's updated every friday with 6 pages of story. It's a great example of a traditional comic book story adapted to the internet. Worth a look for anyone. Do start at the beginning, though.

First Look: Francis Manapul draws The Flash

On Sep 30, 2009 4:45 PM

My man crush continues! This might be a little early, but this Johns/Manapul thing is turning into a Morrison/Quitely caliber partnership. That is, I find it hard to not call this my PotW every time it comes out. So excited. Regarding the particulars of the costume, I think it's important to note that these sketches were done last year. I believe the blog stated the purpose of these sketches...

@edward: I'd have to disagree with the notion that art isn't toally subjective. Your points ring true only for the general consensus of a social group. As a culture, it has been decided that the Mona Lisa is one of the best works of art of all time. I couldn't care less about the paiinting. I'm not impressed with it, I'm not moved by it, it doesn't matter to me on a personal level. I can't den...

Next DC Animated Story: 'Crisis on Two Earths'

@drake: Ain't It Cool News described the photo as being from the movie, with Lex Luthor being the "good" alternate earth version. Should be interesting.

I'd like to chime in about Adventure Comics. Conor brought up the coloring, which is defintiely a strength of the book. However, I believe a lot of that watercolor effect is coming from Manapul's own inks. He does a kind of ink wash that gives his art a cool water color effect. Check out some of his original art on his website, it's good stuff. I think Conor said the same thing about last month...

Flash #1 courtesy of Geoff Johns and Francis Manapul

On Sep 8, 2009 5:46 PM

As excited as I am for Manapul to be on Flash, I am bummed that Johns is leaving Adventure. Between this and Batman, I'm getting a little nauseous with all of the creative team juggling at DC.
