CzarChasm posted:poo poo that was Tom King? Wow. OK, I need to pick up his Batman collection yesterday Yes. Clark, Lois, Bruce, and Selina are on a double-date and decide to go to a fair...that's having a "dress as a superhero" theme night. Nobody can get in without a superhero costume, and if they wore their regular outfits they'd be recognized. So everyone swaps costumes.  I love that Clark's wearing his glasses over the batmask.

The first issue is basically covering everything from Namor's flooding of New York in the 40's(which they establish not only as a major disaster that kills thousands of people, but as also the primary reason people in the Marvel Universe have such a hate boner for Mutants compared to anyone else with super powers) through the initial X-Men team being fully formed, including how each member gets recruited(as well as showing Magneto's rise and founding of the Brotherhood)

The gimmick is "all of X-Men continuity as a big overarching story that actually hangs together," so I imagine there'll be a trade. And if he pulls it off, he should get all the Eisners.

As someone not super into comics and even less so superhero comics (so as to say a lot of the history/references he was tying together probably flew over my head) I really enjoyed it. I mean I don't know how much of that was because of the art style but drat I really loved the art style.

His fear that former BSS mod David Brothers was going to beat him up was simultaneously hilarious and pathetic, and that's sadly colored all his work for me.

Apparently Brothers having problems with the post-script of the first volume of Hip Hop Family Tree was construed to mean he intended to throw hands or something equally dumb, which is an idea so insane it's still humorous to me.

Rhyno posted:Huh. I had no idea. Do people have a problem with his work or something? I don't have my copy of HHFT on hand, but I recall the actual issue hermanos had was a white guy referring to the majority white purchasers of his indie comics in the exact way you're thinking. It may not have been in the collection but in an interview or something equally cringeworthy. This was apparently blown up by bad actors talking poo poo about hermanos into threats of violence. Which is literally insane. He'd obviously have hired Rhyno to do it instead.

That's really sweet. Len Wein was pretty great, and is responsible for this panel: So I will always remember him fondly. And with some confusion.
