    "A little early"? Dude, I'm just now eating my breakfast.

    When he dies, I hope they write "Worst Affirmative Action Hire, EVER" on his grave. His corpse should be trolled.

    Shouldn't that be "I thought the forges were shut down"?

    Daredevil is going to kick so much ass next month. Not a specific moment, but damn does Brubaker know how to write a climax.

    Cap was all kinds of crazy this week. I liked the preview pages that showed upa few days ago with Bucky shooting couple AIM guys and the shield bouncing off the last guy behind him.

    Here's a decent looking shot of his new costume.

    And here's how Skull is ratcheting up the fear and chaos in America.

    I really should be reading Cap I think, but I haven't caught up on the trades and fear I'd be lost with out 'em

    I think if you start around when Cap died, you'd be more than fine. While the first dozen or so issues deal with bringing back Bucky and setting up Lukin and the Skull (and it is awesome), they aren't essential to this new section of the book. At least I don't think you'd be missing out on as long as you maybe do a quick Wikipedia or something for the first bunch of issues.



    Also, everyone should buy What If? Spider-Man Vs Wolverine.

    I've got the first two trades (Winter Solider) but I think I'll wait and catch up first then maybe come into the monthlies.

    So I never understood why they let the inmates wear their costumes in Arkham.

    alright so I just finished it but Ultimate Spider-man is my pick, seriously the entire thing was awesome from start to finish just brilliant.

    I know that in the Iron Heights prison in Keystone they force the inmates to stay in costume as a form of humiliation. To showcase that despite their flashy costumes and gear they still ended up in jail like any normal criminal.

    It's more the writer/artist's discretion. I think since it was a GL book, they wanted GL fans to know it was the Scarecrow and they wouldn't be wondering who this Crane guy was based on the small door tag. In most Batman books, the inmates rarely have costumes unless they are going for the 'hey look at this super villain!' effect.

    Also, he kind of loses his costume when the GL's come in. It's only the mask and some prison clothes then.

    the last page gave me fuzzy feelings

    Gee, does anyone want to guess what my moment of the week was?


    It was Cap 34 (the whole issue) in case you were wondering.


    I literally yelled out "Oh, Shit" as soon as

    My bad.

    Like I said, I assumed (there's the problem right there) it was obvious. But that is stupid of me.

    Oh dude, Y #60.

    All of it, every last goddamn page.

    aaaaahhhhhh ultimate spider-man was sooooooooooo good

    seriously i haven't read a better comic this month, let alone most of last year

    Jesus christ Y was amazing.

    What a perfect ending.

  • KVWKVW Registered User
    I take it I'm the only one that really disliked the last issue of Y? I'm of the mind I would have preferred it ended at #59. The only thing I found remotely interesting in the issue was Yorick escaping at the end and the 355 flashback. I expected a time skip, but I thought it would be a lot different than what we were given. Maybe I just expected / hyped this up too much to myself.

  • BalefuegoBalefuego Registered User regular
    How could you prefer anything over that last panel

    [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
  • kdrudykdrudy Registered User
    Yea, I won't lie, I honestly didn't like Y until the last page, that made everything about it worthwhile though.
