The Latest and (Mostly) Greatest #21
Let the records show, I finished this early. It’s going to be a very busy weekend, but I can’t fail you humble readers! Let’s do this! My Top Five (The Five Best Comics of the Week) Dark Horse Presents #1 writers/artists: Various So yeah, this was really, really rad. It starts with a pretty good Concrete story, “heads” to a strange Howard Chaykin story, and “leads” to a weird Neal Adams story. And that’s just the first 25 pages. AND THERE ARE 80 TOTAL. The Adams story is, of course, weird cuz’ he’s written it (oy vey.) There were also … Continue reading

I’m writing these on a Friday, whoa! Stuff on time! Let’s do this! My Top 5 (The 5 Best Comics of the Week) Amazing Spider-Man #655 Writer: Dan Slott Artist: Marcos Martin Yup, I’m on the bandwagon for this issue. It’s been going around the “internets” (as dear Dubya once said) that this is some big special fantastic issue, and holy crap it is. Look, all you need to know is that Dan Slott really loves writing Spider-Man and Marcos Martin draws the hell out of it. With the recent death of J. Jonah Jameson’s wife, this is a first … Continue reading

Fresh Eye on Old Books #14 by Dan!
Here we are back for another round of me judging books that came out before I was born! Whoo! Superman 200 from 1967 So this was an “imaginary story” meaning it has absolutely no consequence on the main Superman mythos. To say the least, it was a lot of fun. The bottle city of Kandor is replace by Superman’s home city, Brainiac is a good guy, and Kal-El’s younger brother Knor-El takes over as the new Superman. However, things go bad when Knor is exposed to kryptonite, and Kal-El has to save him. Cue to a crazy-random-happenstance where Green Kryptonite … Continue reading

Fresh Eyes on Old Books #13 by Dan!
It’s a new year! Do you know what that means? All these comics are older, and you are too! Let’s do this. Tales to Astonish #60 from 1964 So, I really don’t like the Hulk that much. I find him a big, boring, punching machine, and it just doesn’t usually work for me. This issue was no real exception. Ditko art was very pretty to look at, and what really surprised me was just how much dialogue this Hulk story had. You’d think it would be more of a grunt-and-punch type of story, but instead it was plot heavy, which … Continue reading
