Hey, we're not dead, ya know. The Classics community is still very much living and breathing over here: http://classiccomics.boards.net/forum
Stop in sometime :)
We still exist, but when it became apparent that CBR didn't want to give us a space to do what we were doing anymore, we made our own: http://classiccomics.boards.net/forum . Though I haven't felt...
Anything for a fellow Usagi fan!
I own them all, and the best one, by far, was put out by Antarctic Press a few years back. Only the more expensive variant editions are available on ebay right now, but the basic one generally...
Thanks much!
I stopped short of anticipating where the series is heading next, but I'm tempted to do so. It seems obvious to me, for example, that Van Lente is going to make 1A into a morally...
I suppose it's possible -- moving backwards in time and all.
Maybe Dr. Spektor's first arc will just be an anchor for the Gold Key universe as a means of boosting sales for a title that...
By the way, the preview for this week's issue of Doctor Spektor, in which we see that both Magnus and "Gail" (presumably from Doctor Solar) are somehow connected to the Doctor's reality shifting and...
For anyone interested, I've been reviewing every Magnus Robot Fighter story ever published and am now completely caught up with the Dynamite series. You can read reviews of this series in any number...
I'd be lying if I said the same thought hadn't crossed my mind.
Unfortunately, no such luck.
I've lived in Queens. I would never live in Manhattan.
Queens is a pretty diversified place. There are run-down, overly urbanized parts, and there are also some classy, well maintained communities that offer a little more space, a little less...
So I tried to articulate a sentiment here earlier, worded it very poorly, and it came off sounding like an accusation that was absolutely not intended.
I'm going to try again.
Captain Jim...
I just can't believe the news. Jim was one of my favorite things about this place from the very start. His passion for heart-felt discussion was an inspiration, and while he was never afraid to...
Detective Comics with Mike W. Barr.

Just finished up his Green Lantern run in Action Comics Weekly. Realized from the letter column that he'd been fired from the gig. The run started well but got truly iffy pretty quickly.
I'm not sure there's anything dated about Untold beyond the fact that Year One contradicted it.
Year One is an extension of DKR, and DKR was a game changer. I just prefer the old game to the...
There are quite a few fans of the older stuff out there (including myself) who will tell you that Untold Legend of the Batman is, in many ways, a superior Batman origin story. Unfortunately, there's...
It's GREAT as a story, but I hate it as Batman's definitive origin. We had a lengthy discussion about this in the old Batman #300 and up reviews thread (which I am in the process of restoring), but...
My six year old has her own comic collection at this point, much of which we have read together. We have an entire thread for kids' comics over at the Classic Comics Forum, and she listed and...
I think this is the first time I've ever heard of someone not liking Mignola's artwork on Hellboy. To each their own, of course.
There used to be an amazing comic book store that was a thirty minute drive from my house. It had been bought at the height of the comic book bubble in the mid-1990s, and the new owner didn't really...
My vote for DC Comics Presents is purely of nostalgia. I'm well aware that far better things were objectively happening in Brave & the Bold and Marvel Team-Up.
Always great to see folks you respect getting some recognition. Congrats, SJNeal!
Yup. That would be a mostly rough stretch.
I'm always a sucker for Kang's first appearance, though.
