I do like the gooey membrane covering her gloves and boots, though. Who thought that resembled shiny vinyl or leather at all?

Don't miss out on Batman in the background swooping in and, I dunno, casting fireball?

Doctor_Fruitbat posted:Is it seriously from the nineties? Everything about her looks liked it was dated, even then, by more decades than I've been alive. That particular example is dated even for the era but yeah if you go back there's a lot of 90s comics I could have sworn up and down were 1987 at the latest but were in fact 1992-4.

In Comics? Kind-of? Wasn't AoA 96? Besides Marvel and DC's output from like 96-2004 or so is definitely its own category of "more 90s than either decade bookending it, but not the 90s as we think of it."

I was under the impression the Dark Age basically went from The Dark Knight Returns (or a touch after?) to when Marvel launched the Ultimate line. Unless we're splitting it into two or three distinct chunks?

I don't think there's any real authority on the subject, but my personal opinion is that the Dark Age was definitely from about 85-96 or so, and 96-04 was the industry clawing itself back out of the pit the Dark Age caused. Then around 04 the superhero movie craze was really getting into full swing and Marvel/DC were making some reasonably big changes to their flagships and universes (Marvel for the better, DC for the worse), and that era lasted until about 2011 when the New 52 hit and Marvel started doing its "one year = one season = new Issue #1" thing with its main books.

The first three pages from Multiversity: Pax Americana by Frank Quitely.   This spread was also nifty. Told in three time periods.

There's a documentary on the BBC iPlayer - for those who can get at it - about Quietly and how and where he works: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b03v2vcb/what-do-artists-do-all-day-9-frank-quitely I enjoyed it.

Anora posted:Pretty and all, but geez, the editors have become desensitized to violence if this is not an 18+ comic. Agreed. This definitely needs at least a 14+ sticker if nothing else. Still, Morrison/Quitely is one of the best working teams in comics. Try seeing that done in any other medium.

prefect posted:Is that O'Ryan of the New Gods doing the shooting? No it's a character called peacemaker I think. Pax Americana is an alt universe scenario, it has versions of the blue beetle, the question and captain atom (the blue superman/doc manhattan one that was in the final crisis superman story) and some new characters.

Basically picture the characters of Watchmen which were all based off of Charlton, since it's clear that's what they're being modeled after (with Question there showing a lot of JLU influence as well).

Everyone should read that issue. It's only $5, and it's a perfectly self contained issue. I don't think you'll ever get as much artistic bang for your comic buck.

Quitely - and I suppose Morrison has to do with this as well - is pretty amazing when it comes to portraying ultra violence. We3 has pretty much the most astonishing portrayals of violence I've ever seen, and (I said this before) are a perfect example of how things can be shown in comics that film can never dream of.

I know it sounded like a stupid question, but I don't know whether "ultra" means "especially brutal" or "vividly depicted".
