Over the last few weeks I made my way through the Duggan/Posehn Deadpool collection. Now I think I like Deadpool, and I know I like that creative team. Duggan's Marauders and Cable runs surprised me when I caught up on all the X-books a while back, so I'm going to go out of my way to pick up more of his stuff.

Pneumonia from being a long-winded rear end out in the snow, and his medical staff using Potomac River water that had people's piss and poop all in it. His cause of death is officially listed as "Tippecanoe and Sepsis Too"

Big 2 legend George Perez (Crisis on Infinite Earth's, Infinity Gauntlet) just a announced he has inoperable pancreatic cancer. 6 months to a year is the prognosis. He's returning to social media to fight misinformation, and will be doing a last round of book signings and at least one public appearance so he can meet and hug fans.

That is absolutely awful news.  Codependent Poster posted:That's terrible. He's legitimately one of the best comic book artists ever. It's amazing that you can credit him with co-creating several iconic characters that WEREN'T the ones created in the Golden or Silver Age, as well as redefining two that were. And that he did that all in like a 5 year span.

I hope he can make it through the holidays well enough to be with his family. Whenever he would draw out his signature splash pages I loved taking the time to see who/what he included in them. JLA/Avengers having him give every member pretty much every incarnation and design blew my loving mind when I was a teen collecting each issue when it came out.

Drew every single member of the JLA and the Avengers in one double page splash. Except for Vibe. He was only a leg. George hated Vibe.

Literally the dude who got me into American comics after I picked up Avengers/JLA and just fell in love with his work. I honestly thought he was older, cancer is a horrible way to go but even moreso at just 67.

This sucks. George Perez was one of the first comic-book pros I ever met at a con, and he was amazingly welcoming.Open Marriage Night posted:Drew every single member of the JLA and the Avengers in one double page splash. Except for Vibe. He was only a leg. George hated Vibe. Now that you mention it, I did think it was funny that Vibe was only present in a single panel of JLA/Avengers, where he's lying unconscious on the ground.

Who’d think a man named George Perez would be offended by a bad Hispanic stereotype? I think DC has done better since then? I’m not sure how people feel about Vibe since then.

Devil's Reign reads to me like Zdarsky was reading Civil War and getting irritated by how often it devolved into anticlimactic Hero VS Hero punch-ups instead of tackling the outlaw heroes thing in greater detail I like it! Miles new costume is still terrible, though, especially when you have his new Spider-Verse costume to contrast it against

I knew how the Spider man beyond issue was going to end but I didn’t expect it to do it so nonchalantly. I wonder what the behind the scenes for this mini run is, because it’s really weirdly paced

Devil's Reign was really good. Pretty shocking what Kingpin did at the end there. Good moments with Cap and the Thing.

I think Marvel value Cates as the guy who will pick up the poison chalice of taking over a character-defining run and then completely pretending it didn’t happen.

Obsessed with how Forge, Jean, Scott, and Wolverine all stand menacingly amidst Krakoan gates on the cover of Phoenix Song: Echo #2 but have absolutely nothing to do with the story inside. Love that lack of content, go girls give us nothing! I feel like I like Devil's Reign in theory, but also like...is this not also just Civil War done again for like the fourth...maybe fifth time?

Devil's Reign #1 admittedly felt pretty derivative of the earlier issues of Civil War, but I'm reasonably confident that the event won't involve writing half of the major Marvel heroes as unambiguous villains before deciding that they're actually the good guys in an ending that was in no way set up by the rest of the story, or ostensibly revolve around a semi-topical premise that in reality barely informs the plot at all past the first issue, so you could do worse than ripping off the parts of Civil War that I don't hate

As long as they don’t expect us to cheer for anybody building a negative zone concentration camp or violently apprehending innocent people for futurecrime it will be an improvement over both civil war events

On the other hand, government enforcers beating and attacking nonviolent civilians in the streets and marching into homes to arrest people doing nothing seemed like a bit of overkill in 2006, but feels almost understated nowadays, in this 2021 issue.

At this point it'd be weirder if a new Hulk run acknowledges the last one than it would be if it didn't.
