This story keeps getting better. I am really enjoying it!
Any one who enjoyed the film Looper should be reading this comic.
This book and the Supermassive one shot are really the most exciting thing in comics for me right now. I hope the quality continues.
Plunge is a great horror/science fiction comic book. I am really enjoying it and I was wondering if any one has bothered to translate the Russian dialog at the end of issue 4?
There are several...
We are three books in, and I usually wait for the end of the story to say anything, but I can't help it. I think THIS BOOK IS AWESOME!!
I think the fans that are trying to adapt all of the...
I have two:
1. Jason Aaron is a mediocre, sometimes bad, writer. My latest example: Why was Valkyrie #10 put on digital release only? If the book was doing that well, they would have published...
I thought that version of Superwoman was written out of the continuity by the Superwoman series that went about 17 issues at the beginning of Rebirth? Both the New 52 Lois and Lana got dealt with...
Have you read any Marvel books lately? The DC books have most of 'em wooped by a mile.
I don't see it this way. What I see is Bendis put some tension in the relationship that wasn't there before. Sure, Lois and Clark love each other, but they gotta work at a healthy relationship, just...
I think the failure of For Tomorrow was the lack of a coherent narrative voice. BUT Brian Azarello doesn't write that way and it showed in the collaboration. The minimalist style works in some...
Three issues into the Cates run on the book and its like coming out of the desert. This is more like the Thor I remember.....and Galactus......and Beta Ray Bill. I am really enjoying everything so...
When I was a kid and trading piles of comics were a thing, we had this pile of Tales of Suspense that skipped around 5 or 10 issues at a time. There were like seven issues or so, we would sit and...
Thank you. I looked at the link, and it is definitely Frenz/Defalco…..I haven't read that far in my Thor collection yet (I am currently in the Moench era). The Frenz/Defalco run gives me the...
There was a Year of the Villain Lex Luthor one shot that deals with this idea. I think the plan is to have the clone take over. But that doesn't need to happen for a year or so.
So as far as...
Hickman was the one writer who really understood Thor, what he was about and how to write him. Hickman wrote three great Thor moments in my memory:
1. The fight with Thanos in Infinity
2. The...
Where were you guys when Aaron was writing Thor and I felt like the only person who remembered how great Thor was before Aaron ruined it????????
So true about the Everett/Namor comment. So stuff has a way of working out. I will also say a number of people have pointed out to me that Wally Wood might have been the perfect Thor inker during the...
It's funny how a character like Superman has had a lot of different creators work on his books, even going back to the Golden Age, and each creator brings something different to the table. You get a...
Even at the end of his run on Thor, Jack Kirby still did some amazing work. Everett's inks on this book make me wish he had moved with Jack to DC to do New Gods.
I don't know if Fraction's version...
I thought Superman and Wonder Woman's daughter was Project A-Ko. :)
I miss the New 52 book though, it was an interesting experiment and worked on some levels. It's hard to imagine Clark without...
I like Naomi. I hope that she gets another mini series when her guest appearances are completed.
My picks:
Ronin by Frank Miller
Action Comics #544-546
Superman #419-423, Action 583
I am sure I am leaving something out, save the obvious stuff that everyone else remembered; Watchmen...
Like most of all the posts here, I agree this is a great book and I don't have a problem with any of it.
The alien looking Kryptonians is not a problem for me, considering all the stuff I have had...
Aaron's Thor was arrogant. Aaron's Thor was really Hercules in disguise (my opinion).
Most everybody else's Thor was confident, Thor knew who he was, what he was about and saw the value of each...
**Spoiler On King Thor Ahead**
To me, one of the biggest inconsistency was when Aaron had Loki tell Gorr how worthy Thor was during all of his adventures as part of Gorr's defeat. Of all the stuff...
