  1. Sorry, I could have worded that sentence better....

    Sorry, I could have worded that sentence better. I mean that the combination of Whitebeard's inhuman strength and his earthquake-generating superpowers can literally defy the laws of physics,...

    Conceptually, maybe. In practice, Vibe's vibrational discharges were often depicted as concentrated energy beams, making them visually very similar to any other superhero who can emit energy from...

    It looks cool... if you've never seen artwork of a comic book character generating lightning/other types of sparkling energy from their eyes. At the 100 millionth time, it just becomes lazy and...

    I can't believe it... Hill House Comics is back!...

    I can't believe it... Hill House Comics is back! And with a sequel to my second most favorite mini-series to boot. Rio Youers and Tom Fowler have some really big shoes to fill, but I really look...

    Oh, finally somebody remembered Wild Dog's supporting role in Cave Carson Has a Cybernetic Eye!

    Where he was portrayed as a total second amendment warrior.

    The only thing I know for sure about this project is that it will feel from 4 to 6 issues longer than it should be. Reading maxiseries like Strange Adventures feels a lot like watching the Snyder...

    The current comic book industry (especially the writers) is deluded, from my point of view. Otherwise I wouldn't be bored to tears or actively pissed off by nearly every American comic book I read...

    You're right!

    THE BEST.

    Period.

    Aaaargh, I'm conflicted... I'd read even a shopping list if it were penned by Ennis but I absolutely loath Liam Sharp's artwork. I thought it was completely inadequate for comic books in his old...

    Oh, thank the Heavens! I was afraid that at least one of my comments would have raised a major fuss. Luckily I was just being too much of a pessimist.

    - And again with the overdesigned costumes! Let alone that Timms couldn't draw a genuine-looking smile if his life depended on it.

    I'm going to be 100% honest: I avoided the Death Metal event like the plague. No way I would go down that rabbit-hole after the experience that was Scott Snyder's Metal, i.e. a colossal waste of my...

    I refuse to hold Greg Rucka of all people as the judge of what is or is not acceptable in the current socio-cultural context.

    About your last point... dude, chill. I'd be surprised if even one writer working at DC will give that turn of events even a sliver of attention in the next six months. After that point, it will 100%...

    Your second question is 100% justified, of course, but that's exactly the kind of things the American government should have looked into before it happened. And quite unfortunately, it's hard to...

    "Hyperbole"? "Understatement", more likely. There's no way one could ever overstate how terrible A wrinkle in time is. I easily put it in the Top 3 of the Worst Cinematic Experiences of 2018, right...

    No, I cannot accept that. The Happening is a bad movie. Jingle All The Way is a bad movie. National Treasure is a bad movie.

    A wrinkle in time is so kitschy and baroque, it has so much nothing in...

    A superhero with the mind of the father of maieutics? Sounds like an awesome idea for a parody comic book! Can you imagine if, e.g., Peter Parker had Socrates' penchant to question the real meaning...
