I've only read the beginning of Invincible and the Marvel Team Up story that had Freedom Ring and the Iron Maniac, and what I picked from both of those is he's kind of sadistic and pessimistic to the point I won't read him. Oh wait, I read half of his horrid Ant Man miniseries that had that horrible nihilistic rear end get the suit and I had to put it down because I really hate pure rear end in a top hat protagonists. It was just kinda nihilistic to me.

TenCentFang posted:I'm reading Jack Kirby's Eternals. There is a lot of exposition. I grabbed the first issue on that as one of those $1 marvel reprints. I'ma have to read that. I love Chariots of the Gods stuff and it's not even subtle about being inspired by that.

A Strange Aeon posted:I got this discount book catalog in the mail and it has some comics in it. Could the "Just Imagine Stan Lee Creating the DC Universe Omnibus" be worth $25? It's 726 pages, and Kubert, Gibbons, Buscema, and Ordway are mentioned as artists. It's tacky and great as a curiosity. I want it for twenty five bucks! I love how Batman is just Luke Cage but with bat powers.

Every character in that storyline was terrible/great, but Jaxxon was extra special. Don Wan Kihotay was also pretty special.

Honestly, once Carmine Infantino takes over, the Star Wars series is pretty solid. I especially like Baron Tagge, who was blind with a super-vision visor before Geordi existed, and who's whole story is case study in hubris and why normal people shouldn't play with lightsabers. But there are also gems like pre-RoTJ, polite Jaba the Hutt (who was just some guy they pulled out of the background of the cantina and they based his personality on the unused Jabba lines from the original film): And the Chris Claremont story that was supposed to originally be a comic book John Carter of Mars story, but they didn't get the license, so they did it as a Star Wars story and had people draw Stormtrooper armor over the Tharks and added some dialog (yes, added dialog to a Chis Claremont story) about giant stormtroopers. At least Simonson was on art for that one.

TenCentFang posted:You can't talk me into it, I've read your entry in the Monster Manual so know the only way to escape the curse is to trick someone else into bearing it. That would actually be an awesome movie.

Rhyno posted:Well Diamond probably won't carry that so I'm really looking forward to the cold call where they try to get us to carry it. Will they ask for it to be put next to your back issues of Liberality for All?

muscles like this! posted:He is the guy who tried to fix the Hugos so women wouldn't win. This is what has lead to a spate of "no winner" Hugo categories because they could stuff the ballot for nominations but not the people who would actually vote for a winner. He also considers himself John Scalzi's personal arch enemy and is constantly doing such classy things as claiming he couldn't possibly be that popular and successful. It's amazing how people who think they are the master race spend all their energy on weird, infantile poo poo.

Gaz-L posted:Heh, you just reminded me of the older Marvel RPG that they self-published, with the gem-stone resource system instead of dice. I still have my core books for that from when I was like 16, and every time I open the main book, I get to one part of the combat rules and I swear to god they skipped a bit, because there's a super-obvious question regarding how defence works that I always ask, and I ALWAYS end up finding isn't in the book and has never really been answered. This is the only Marvel RPG I know:

Lurdiak posted:You mean besides publishing a book where a Batman stand-in murders all muslims? Wasn't his original Robocop 2 script kind of out there as well? Like "evil man-hating feminist is responsible for everything" kinda stuff? I feel like a lot of these people have had these problems for a long time, which would be ok if they got better rather than visibly worse.
