Just here to echo that this book is phenomenal!

Outside finally matching the inside! It's nice for a brief change.

This issue really didn't do anything but we had to get Zod his new army/ship somehow. Like, it could have been 2-3 pages. Lol.
...

It looks like he's just doing Substack stuff and is part of the management team over there.

I'd not looked before but his Substack profile...

Last weekend I started Miles' latest volume and it's fantastic! Almost caught up already, it just flies by.

It's so cool that Spidey currently has a bunch of quite diverse books. A little of something for everyone.

There's room for more, though!

The Animated Series was my real introduction, though I was already aware of Spidey as I had Amazing Spider-Man #282 in a UK Marvel Annual from the late-80s.

I grabbed some books from the library...

Both are great in very different ways, though both directly tackle why Superman/Batman weren't "modernised" in the late-80's-90's extreme style that infested comics at the time.

JPV had a steady...

Kal was a newborn, was clearly not known about by anyone other than Lara and Jor, and Krypton was literally in the midst of a civil war so had bigger things to worry about.

Lara was on screen for...

I just found out this storyline is feeding into Absolute Power and it has kind of killed interest to me*. Like, can Superman not just have his own crossover that be about Superman's line of comics?...

The extreme hate from people who still buy it week in week out is genuinely bizarre. If you're liking it, buy it and enjoy it. If not, move on until a run you do like starts.

Personally, I think...

I completely agree. It's why he still worked really well in Superman TAS (though he did kill all the other Czarnians in that, too).



A great joke in a series of great jokes*!

Lobo was a...

Do you mean the Light in the Darkness book? I've got that an have been collecting the scattershot TPBs for the rest.

Or is there a bigger omnibus? If so, I feel I'm about to get fleeced cos I'd...

I can't believe you missed the opportunity to say "polka doted around the forums." Lol.

Seriously, though, even walking back his original premise of "each dot is basically lined with magic science...

I've never liked Spider-Man Versus Wolverine.

To me, the whole thing likes forcing a square peg into a round hole. Nothing really works or feels natural for Spidey/Peter. The death of Ned is...

Manhunter by Marc Andreyko and Michael Gaydos (or Javier Pina). One of my all time favourites.

Also Chase by Dan Curtis Johnson and J H Williams III.

I wouldn't call JMS' the best run of all time, but it's really strong for the most part. Excellent character work. Of course, your mileage may vary depending how much you enjoy the mystical stuff and...

I read the first one, so that's a strong "YES" from me. Lol.

I am perpetually thankful that Johns didn't give himself a run on Batman. Dude has proven time and again that he cannot write him.

...

The paperback is set for August.

I don't know how true that is, but it is certainly easier to write Bat-characters these days because of (what must be DC's) restrictions of what a Superman story can be.

Look at any power fantasy...

Oh, I'd hate that. Sanding down the edges makes everyone less interesting.

The 'Bo was a true agent of chaos in his original run and Superman didn't chuck him in prison because he couldn't. They...

I think it was great for a long time, but became something of an albatross around their necks in the latter half of the 90's. A large part of that might just have been the line's desperate need for...

Can you imagine if this entire run is retconned as Beyond trying to Winkler Device Peter into a Spider-Goblin?

What we've* been seeing is actually Peter fighting it in his mind, and ultimately...

Honestly, I don't know. I'm a Hickman fan, so I read and loved Ultimate Invasion (in spite of the art) and USM is basically a dream book for me, but I haven't read the others.

I might check them...

Well, there was that time she was the HERALD OF GALACTUS!!!!

Okay, it's just a funny non-canon adventure but the awesomeness of this must never be forgotten.

I've not been keeping up with this as I'm not a big fan of reading anthologies so TPB wait for completed stories.

Last night I read The Winning Card.

Holy ****, it's awesome! Joker is truly...
