purple death ray posted:Claremont is good. Sorry BSS Claremont is your dad who was an activist in the 60s, 70s and early 80s yeah he was involved in free love poo poo but he totally was actually politically active as well and doesn't quite understand modern social justice concepts but really enjoys listening to you talk about them.

Guy Goodbody posted:Why do you guys hate Alpha Flight? I'm only a dozen issues in, and I kinda love it. It's just so goofy. Between Alpha Flight and Letterkenny, I think I'm becoming a weeaboo but for Canada instead of Japan Byrne's run is actually pretty solid, aside from Byrneisms like his subtle signalling that Northstar is gay. After he leaves it pretty much falls apart, and Bill Mantlo's run is absolutely the worst thing he ever wrote, saying that as a fan btw. It's worth looking at for the Mike Mignola art though.

I want to be Giffen-era Mon-El so yes I would like one, even though I wouldn't need it.

My friend watched it and says it's basically Nolan Batman, except Batman is kind of a leftist instead of an authoritarian prick and occasionally a scene from a kung fu movie is spliced in. This was a negative criticism btw. People really cared about the handful of boardroom stuff in Immortal Iron Fist and didn't care about stuff like him beating up a roomful of Hydra agents or fighting in a cosmic version of Enter the Dragon at all!

Teenage Fansub posted:Bernie Wrightson just passed too RIP, Bernie. Swamp Thing is one of my favorite comics, both the original and Moore versions. Frankenstein is brilliant. I'm sure people will post tons of his best work but while he was the master of horror he was also a really funny guy. Like he did Hulk/Thing - The Big Change and the Heavy Metal strip Captain Sternn, one of the features chosen for the movie. Funny poo poo. Dude was super versatile. An all-star illustrator, he'll be missed. Guy Goodbody posted:I found out why that massive Alpha Flight bundle I bought ended at issue 105. Issue 106 is literally the only rare or valuable issue of Alpha Flight, because it's the one where Northstar comes out It's also loving awful, this is the panel where he comes out PunkBoy posted:Someone pointed out the Iron Fist sale on Comixology, so I had to go get the Immortal Iron Fist series. Is the recent Power Man and Iron Fist series worth getting as well? Ya. If you don't have it get the original PM&IF series too.

Gaz-L posted:It's pretty decent, but VERY different in tone to IIF. It's also a little sexist, honestly, given how Jessica's used and the one really cringeworthy appearance by Black Cat. I did like Cage calling Songbird for help during CW2, though, it was a nice callback to the Jeff Parker Thunderbolts. Yeah I was disappointed by Jessica. Has she ever really been written well outside of Alias?

A friend of mine had a normal wedding, but the groomsmen (I was not one, I did the ceremony ) wore superhero ties.

Ties are better. At least for regular suits.

*most popular Iron Fist comic, full of fights, pulp action and mystical happenings has like five pages tops of business drama* *show adapted from it has multiple business and courtroom scenes, also fighting scenes are real bad* Makes sense.

CA had basically become a repository for Sims articles with reposted content from TownSquare's other sites, which are worthless garbage dumps. They still did the occasional good essay from other people. I feel bad for Kieran Shiach. If this is legit I'll miss them (again)
