Moment of the Week 9/17/08

Ghost Rider, for giving me the biggest set of blue balls ever
And Punisher MAX for still being better than the Ennis run
And finally is the War Machine: Weapon Of SHIELD arc the lead-in to the title-change?
Because after flipping through it I want it to be true pretty badly

    X-Factor's art still looks like it melted in the sun. Someone should do something.

  • BalefuegoBalefuego Registered User regular
    Stroman is still the artist next month, but the november and decembers issues have been solicited with a different artist.

    Did anyone else get the Batman and the Outsiders RIP crossover issue?

    Was it just me, or did it seem like there was a plot gap somewhere? Obviously its a new writer and all that, but somehow the book just didn't gel with me. I sort of felt like we need another issue of Batman before this issue would make sense. I dunno. I didn't much like it.

    Although the ending was rather...huh?

    I dig this guy a lot more than even my favorite Ennis arcs
    Mother Russia and Long Cold Dark were great
    But something that's not just KILL FUCK DIE MAIM REPEAT is a nice change of pace and the dude knows what he's doing

    Well, it's post-RIP, and we don't know how RIP ends so, yeah, I imagine it is pretty confusing.

    Also, Dixon was kicked off and that dude who wrote Underground (awful) was shoved in, and I imagine that doesn't help.

    Secret Invasion: Thor #2 was overall pretty great, and Nick Fury was all sorts of badass in Mighty Avengers.

  • MunchMunch Registered User regular
    It made me sad to open X-Factor and see the good art on the recap page, and then flip ahead and see Larry "Everyone Looks Like Ron Pearlman On Beauty and the Beast Except With a Huge Ass" Stroman was still pencilling it.

    Anyhow, some good stuff this week.

    In Atomic Robo, Robo has been tasked with assisting Allied troops during the 1943 invasion of Sicily. His mission? To destroy the Laufpanzers, Germany's so-called walking tanks. It could be going better.

    In Billy Batson and the Magic of Shazam, Theo Adam, one-time champion of the wizard Shazam, has returned to Earth. He's begun engaging in petty delinquency in an attempt to coerce Billy Batson to tell him the magic word that will unleash Black Adam.

    Really, Mike Kunkel's animation-influenced art is completely selling this book for me. All the little exaggerated faces and smooth transitions from one moment to another are just great. And it's only $2.25! If you're the kind of person that can enjoy all-ages books like Bone, there's no reason not to pick it up. And if you happen to be digging it, be sure to check out Kunkel's Herobear and the Kid.

    Let me know when Thor stops being awesome! I couldn't be happier with how Marvel is finally giving him his due.

    Oh man, just finished SI:Thor. All kinds of awesome, Beta Ray Bill was badass, I loved the part with the firefighters. All in all it was a freaking awesome issue.

    hmmm

    did you even read Valley Forge, Valley Forge?

  • Me Too!Me Too! __BANNED USERS
    I didn't like Valley Forge that much
    It was a nice way to wrap up the whole thing but I was very eh on it
    This is a very nice change of pace, still dark, still violent, but driven by more of a plot than say Mother Russia
    Mother Russia went
    Get into base
    Get out of base
    Frank fucks up the generals' plans
    THE END

    Yeah, for Ennis' final issue, I was hoping for a conclusion to Frank Castle's story rather than an end to an ongoing plotline.

    I suppose the decision to have the series continue on made that impossible, though.

    You should read his novels. His description of the biker house in Troubleshooter is fucking spectacular.

    He and another author who were announced as coming in after Ennis were authors I hadn't read. So as soon as I read about it, I checked out some of their books. Marvel picked some crazy awesome people to follow Ennis.

    Do you know what my secret dream is for Punisher?
    I want Charlie Huston on this bitch
    The guy wrote one of my favorite stories of all time: Moon Knight's "The Bottom"

    I seem to recall reading that they couldn't say he would, but they couldn't say he wouldn't either.

    Do you know how many dicks I'd suck for one issue of his Punisher?
    All of them
    The first issue of Moon Knight is one of my favorite issues ever, not counting the older stuff that I scrounge in second-hand places for
    Not a single word spoken out loud, all in Marc's head
    And that last page, of him kneeling in front of the statue, broken
    Damn

    You should go and read his prose stuff then. I actually found him first through his books and then continued with MK.

    Check out his website at pulpnoir.com He has a neat little story going on currently.

    Those are all excuses Wiggins.

    I guess it's just a matter of finding the right ones.

    Under categories click on All Future Names. He's been posting bits and pieces every so often. It's really different from his other work though.

    I'm pretty sure you can find previews of all his novels as well.

    You shut your filthy mouth.

    Admittedly I haven't read it yet, but once I have I'll get back to you and let you know why you're wrong.

    "I told you," said Ford, "eddies in the space-time continuum."
    "And this is his sofa, is it?" said Arthur.

    Man...god damn it Marvel, I can't afford to buy more of your books. But that War Machine looks so good. :(

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

    Well, at least he's consistent. Suckface is a suckface, right?

  • wwtMaskwwtMask Registered User
    Did Blade get all up in Spitfire's face? Because that's entirely consistent with the way he acts.
