07.06.2008 - Episode #140: The Sword #9

On Jul 6, 2008 8:35 AM

I assumed that the Dream Team question means the team that would most likely never happen. With that in mind, I'd like to post two that I'd love, love, love to see: 1) Astonishing X-Men - Allan Heinberg-writer, Steve McNiven- artist Pull Heinberg from his TV gig and put him on Astonishing. Keep it in continuity with the team futzing around in SF and have Mcniven draw the hell out of San Fran...

Ten Things I Love About Comics (The Negativity Free Article)

On Jul 1, 2008 9:00 AM

I love... BACK ISSUES. My LCS has a bargain bin of whole runs packaged up nice and neat for really cheap. So, like a good fanboy I always go there and get at least one and add it to my stack. Discovered HERO and rediscoverd BATTLEGODS through that little bin. I also got the Howard Chaykin SHADOW mini which is up next. I love... IMAGE COMICS. Not only because I'm an intern there (that's not re...

New Comics For 07/02/08 Are Taking a One Week Break From Comic Movies!

On Jun 30, 2008 6:05 PM

I'm a big Ellis fanboy so Astonishing #25 is on the pull list, though I'm gonna have to flip through the pages to make a final decision on Bianchi's artwork. I'm not a fan of Mike Deodato, but there's no denying that The Thunderbolts was the best thing to come out of Civil War. I finished reading all of Walking Dead in a week and #50 doesn't dissapoint. I wanna see where Morrison takes Batman i...

Michael Turner Has Passed Away

On Jun 28, 2008 11:42 AM

I was never a big fan of Turner's artwork, but the industry needed people like him. I never met him personally, but everything I've read about him points to him being an extremely positive, outgoing guy who never had a bad word to say about anyone. With him and Mike Weiringo gone, both gone suddenly and too young, I worry that aspiring artists will never have a chance to come into contact with...

06.29.2008 - 'Wanted'

On Jun 27, 2008 9:00 AM

Saw it twice at two different press screenings and had the pleasure of ruining Ron's night last night with this one. Ill wait till all the votes are in to give details, but as a whole this movie is so much crap. I would've liked to have been a fly on the wall in the script meetings for this one because it goes so far off the map all you can do is sit there with your head in your hands.

Stack Week, Part Seven: Am I Really Number 7?

On Jun 20, 2008 2:38 AM

geez. Looking at my stack, I got a lot of stuff still to work through. Half of the Shadow is done, but I'm not to the weird bits yet, so that's highly anticipated. I've tasked myself with reading The Walking Dead run by the end of the weekend. I just made the mistake of looking at the proofs for #50 and had to put it down once I realized what I was proofing. So, that's definitely on the short l...

200 Words with Paul Dini #16 - Cartoon Characters Talk Too Much

On Jun 12, 2008 12:01 PM

I'm really looking forward to this movie and hope it doesn't get lost in all the superhero fanboy love going around this summer. I totally agree with Dini on this point, too. It's the one thing I point out to people whenever I mention the movie. I can't wait.

Are Comic Book Movies Ruining Summer?

On Jun 6, 2008 12:01 AM

I read the EW article all the way through and did the same thing Jimski did. Eyes were rolling throughout as well as a throwing up a little in my mouth. Jimski's right. You can't really give creedence to someone who throws an infested blanket over a whole genre. How does someone like Nashawhatever-his-name-is get a job writing about entertainment with drivel like this?  I knew there was a...

Ode to My Bag of Unread Comics

On Jun 4, 2008 11:55 AM

OMG! I can totally relate and the problem is getting worse for me. I intern at Image Comics now and I get all their books and some DC books for free now. So, every week for the last semester I've come home every Wednesday with not just my usual 5-10 books, but 20-30, plus some OGNs and TPBs. It's made me appreciate a few things I probably would not have picked up before like Brian Reed's <b...
