The thing that concerns me is the TPB collections. Those are starting to edge upwards of $35-$50. They can't claim that cost is that expensive per book that a softcover collection of the Infinity...
Does anyone out there know where I might go to read the entire Infinity Gauntlet storyline, starting with Thanos Quest and the Silver Surfer issues leading up to it, as well as the Dr. Strange,...
Ya know, now that you mention that, it was during Engelhart stories that I noticed his behavior became extremely erratic and bordered on schizophrenic. I figured it was Jim Shooter's way of having...
So, as I've discussed in other threads, I've been reading a lot of old comics on Marvel's online service. And wow, Quicksilver is insanely intolerant! I know he had to face a lot growing up as a...
Yep. Only 10 bucks a month for all the comics you can read. Granted you have to do it on a computer or a tablet, and I would much rather have the collections or single issues in my hot little...
Okay so I'm at about 1979 now in my reading. I will admit I skipped over quite a few Spidey, Hulk, Iron Man, Cap, FF and Avengers stories from about '75-'78. But now I'm onto Jim Shooter and Perez...
See, Hound, to me Bendis sounds/reads a lot like an episode of Buffy. That is to say, moments of great humor or irreverence mixed with high drama. The characters are witty and somewhat verbose, but...
What you call inane, inarticulate and choppy with Bendis' dialogue, I would call a reflection of how people actually talk. Now, to be fair I haven't read a lot of his more recent work. But in the...
Wow - it's great to be able to go back and read old comics. Even if Marvel has only really posted the biggies - Avengers, X-Men, Spidey, Hulk and the like...
It's still a great way to see the...
I'm reading the Justice League Collection - The Grid, and it skips issue 21. The issue also isn't in the Trinity War Trade. Where might I find it?
It would seem too that all those events have happened within a five year time frame as "now" is taking place 5 years after the inception of capes, or am I wrong on that time frame?
From all that I have read about the New 52, every character is starting fresh, except, for some reason, Batman and Green Lantern. Those both have story threads carrying over from before the...
I also have a question for die-hard SiP fans. At the end of the Immortal Enemies trade/storyline, there is a frame of a sullen girl sitting in a shower. For the life of me I have never been able to...
I loved Spidey in the fireman's helmet! Nice goofy typical Spider-Man antics.
Criticism for Electro I can understand. While I found his mania and obsession and subsequent snap to rage to be psychologically sound, they did just skim the surface. I don't have a problem with what...
I wish they would have made it more clear that it was an I, Vampire crossover - even a little "to be continued in the pages of I, Vampire" kind of thing would have been nice. Until this, I'd seen...
So...the end of Milligan's run - Rise of the Vampires. It seems to just end with Andrew Bennett showing up. Then Lemire's run starts with The Black Room and it's like - huge time jump. Are we to just...
Sounds like it will be a good book for me either way. I've read little of Frankenstein but have very much enjoyed it. I like the horror/hallucinogenic/mysterious books like Constantine/Hellblazer and...
I always suggest Terry Moore's wonderful Strangers in Paradise to those new to the medium. It's a great way to show what sequential storytelling can do, without it being mired in the stigma that...
This seems to be an unsung star of the DC line - I'm not seeing a whole lot being written about it. I'm on Vol. 1 and Peter Milligan is hitting an awesome stride on issue 4. He's got some great...
Is anyone having a hard time with the display for Marvel Unlimited? I just signed up today and it seems like I can only see half the comic page on my computer screen. Can anyone help with this?
I haven't started the 2nd volume yet but my newfound love of Flash has spurred me to starting to buy single issues - I got all the ones available that hadn't been moved to back issues, which turns...
This is pretty much what's happened to me as a Marvel reader. There are so many Avengers and X- Titles it's almost impossible to jump on-board. I'm pretty much just reading the bare minimum of...
I could see some writer-artists like Francis Manapul or the team of Krul and Williams II that did Captain Atom. I'm getting a bit of a Doom Patrol vibe from vol 1 of Captain Atom...
