Going through some of the tags on scans_daily over on IJ and OH DAMN YOU GUYS.

THIS. JUST. THIS.

Now, to be TOTALLY honest, I went over there because I heard that Kon and Bart were alive again (I said I was out of the loop, didn't I?!?) and then hit that scan and my squee-level went waaa~y through the roof. Kon and Bart are alive again? Well, all ( Read more... )

I love John Romita Jr. I mean, what comic book fan doesn't, right? But having finally gotten the chance to read the second Sentry mini, I have to say that his art was throwing me off the story. It's just, I don't know, it just didn't fit the mood of the writing for me. I mean, with the first mini, I felt that Jae Lee's pencils complimented Paul ( Read more... )

Oh god, I've just read the Batman/Superman annual, and I don't think I've laughed so hard at a comic in ever. I had to put the comic down several times, I was laughing so hard. Bitchy Bruce and Clark having to share a room, having no idea about each other's secret identities! Lois, almost figuring out their secrets, only to be blocked at every turn ( Read more... )

...and came away with two trades. (And the Nextwave coloring variant. Tick tick tick boom!)

First was Birthright. I'm not quite sure why I bought it, since I'm not really a Superman fan or anything, but I did. Impulse buy. *g* Haven't read it yet, though I plan to soon.

The second was The Sentry trade of the mini from several years ago. Now this ( Read more... )

Bill Willingham thinks that All Star Batman and Robin is kind of creepy ( Read more... )

Stolen from melata_fic and nostalgia_lj :

Name a character and/or pairing and watch while I ramble on and on about him/her/it/them.

OMIGOD!!! This post on scans_daily from Nightwing #117? Has me squealing so very much. I totally need to ge this issue now! Damn the fact that I went to the comic shop before seeing this! I was totally going to flip through it, too, while I was there, but I decided not to cos I don't know why! And now I wish I did so that I would have BOUGHT IT!

( Am cutting. Also, spoilers for the scans in question. )

I was gonna write something about comic books here, but I'm not quite sure what now. So I'll just wing it ( Read more... )

...well, actually, that should be comic book store!love. Went to pick up my new comics today, and while at the shop, I told them that next week would be my last week to pick up new comics there since I'll be leaving SC next Sunday. Joe (the owner) asked how long I'd be gone and I was, like, "umm, forever..." And I told him I'd be moving back in ( Read more... )

Was just reading Action Comics 826. Don't typically pick up any of the Superman comics, but, dude, this storyline has the Cap in it, so, yeah, I'm interested. What I have to say is this: while Ian Churchill's style of drawing is one that I would typically like? I really don't like his depiction of Captain Marvel. He just...doesn't, I dunno, look ( Read more... )
