I think a lot of wheather or not you like Ennis comes from how much you take his stuff at face value. If your reading something like Punisher or Fury Max or The Boys and thinking you're supposed to identify with the big tough manly guy and that they're a good and true hero, then yeah you're not going to enjoy it much unless you're a 13 year old boy. The whole point of most of his work is how hosed up and broken those guys are. It's the same as Watchmen and Rorschach Opopanax fucked around with this message at 18:57 on Apr 5, 2017 |

I used to think I didn't like Irving's art, but I think he's just the kind of artist where he's not a good fit for just anything, but when you get him on the right book, man oh man E: oh. Ok well him I like then! Opopanax fucked around with this message at 05:08 on Oct 9, 2017 |

jng2058 posted:The weird thing is that isn't how Morlun was when he first showed up. He ate any animal totem types, in his very first appearance he eats an eagle-themed German hero. He should be just as happy to eat the Rhino, Vulture, or Doc Ock as he is Spider-Man. Or black Panther, Falcon, or Wolverine for that matter. Indeed, since Morlun's vulnerable to radiation and by amping the radiation in his blood is how Spidey beats him the first time, the fact that so many Spider-folk are also radioactive should put them off Morlun's menu. How many times do you go back to a restaurant where you got food poisoning, eh? That actually makes more sense, he’s just cosmic Ahab.

Supergod is really good but the other two fell pretty flat for me. No Hero in particular is just a bit too nihilistic and depressing.

Bruceski posted:I'm not sure that's accurate about losing knowledge of how to mine lead. You mine it the same as other metals, but if the choice is digging it out of the ground or stripping it off of these ruins where people already did the work... He means we lost the knowledge of how to make it, so just had to harvest it from ruins

Angry Salami posted:One of the things I appreciated about AoA was that it was dystopian, but it wasn't completely doomed. Magneto's X-Men were winning small victories here and there, there were mentions that they'd taken down previous Horsemen, the human resistance in Europe was keeping Apocalypse at bay. It felt like a universe where things were going badly, but there was still some hope, and that made it have more impact. Stuff like Old Man Logan is a lot harder to take seriously because it's just 'everything that could go wrong does go wrong' and it feels cartoonishly over-the-top. This why I can't behind Ruins, it's just too much and spins around to parody .

Red Bones posted:Kitty can speak fluent Russian because (iirc) Xavier instantaneously psychics the language into her brain when young, pre-demon-abduction Illyana is living at the mansion. He does it so that Kitty can look after Illyana, because she's just a little kid who can only speak Russian at the time. He teaches Cyclops Chinese in Morrison's run, but they reference the fact that it slowly wears off
