That was very likely a request for Doom to be in a particular place for Slott's F4. Which will be terrible.

site posted:After reading like 40 issues of sentry books i have come to the conclusion that everyone who thought that that character should have a) been created in the first place, and b) been placed in mainline continuity are loving morons It never should have gone beyond the original mini series. Edit: The Sentry and the Hood are where I started to sour on Bendis. He started a habit of cribbing other people's ideas and breaking them.

Supposedly Hickman was going to write a Doom ongoing after SW but he was burned the gently caress out so Bendis grabbed him up.

With every new issue of 2i1 I feel a boundless joy. And then I remember that Slott is writing F4 and it's like a cosmic monkey is throwing it's poo poo in my face.

Best Waid is going to be his Captain America run from 1995, check out Operation Rebirth. His follow up that began in 1996 starts out strong but kind of collapses under itself after the first year.

To be fair, the highs in his F4 are incredibly high.   But the daughter of the Wizard arc is so bad it really drags his run down.

Dawgstar posted:Is that the stuff where Cap's in Japan? For the first issue yeah. But the next one has him fighting Hydra on a sub and he loses his shield. That rolls into the Capmania arc which becomes the proto Secret Invasion story. I can't remember the next story offhand but it gets a bit shaky after that. By the time Waid leaves the book (over creative differences I can't remember) the overall plot is kind of a mess and all the vibranium on the planet is going to explode because his shield got broken suring Secret Wars in 1984. Or something.

site posted:thats true. i guess my thinking on this is that invincible spent the last like 7 months having permutations of that group together building them into coworker, friends, and teammates for the finale where they all come together and embrace as a more or less familial unit and then the next issue opens and we're not even paying lip service to the idea that any of that mattered or that it even happened at all. it just makes the entire thing retroactively feel meaningless imo Bendis is a better writer than Slott.

His original pages sell for $2-3000 depending. And that's artwork he also got paid his page rate for so I'm betting an original one off he won't make any other money on would be crazy priced.

Skwirl posted:Okay, so he just needs to do 1-2 a month to live comfortably. gently caress doing 22 interior pages at that point. I'm sure his cover rate is quite high as well so a single cover a month probably pays his bills for the most part.

Dawgstar posted:Did Hughes ever do a regular monthly? I can't recall. He had a brief run on Justice League in 1990 or so. And then maybe the first 6 issues of Ghost in 1995 or 96. I think beyond that he's done 3 issues arcs here and there and mini series. And endless covers.

Open Marriage Night posted:I wonder if artists ever do covers for cheaper than normal just to keep their name in the public eye. Like, do commissions dry up if you don’t do any cover work for a couple years? I too have wondered this. The Moys haven't really done anything noteworthy in 20+ years and seem to subsist entirely off of porn commissions.
