I've been reading more Marvel again lately - still loving Immortal Hulk 30 issues in, really digging the new Ghost Rider series so far with Ketch & Blaze as the main focus, sticking with New Mutants after reading the HOX/POX mini-series, and I was even picking up the recent Avengers issues for the S...

I still buy everything in anticipation of catching up... but I must admit that just tonight I was wondering why I'm buying comics I don't read. I should probably make some time to start reading again, I heard that Fallen World was pretty good. I would recommend Fallen World. :thumb: I promised myse...

I really liked the Punk Mambo mini-series but couldn't get past the first issue of Roku. I think the line art style is an interesting choice for this, I like the look in the preview images and I am up for giving it a chance. Colours are gorgeous as usual from Jordie. VMG continues to set the bar dis...

If the cover direction was for generic action or standing poses, the more generic the better, the cover artists succeeded brilliantly. I hope somebody is keeping track of the number of X-O covers where's he's posing generically with the silly light sword. Quoted for truth. Seriously generic covers ...

Sooo so so sweet. I have missed seeing new art from Lewis! Hope I can track down copies of this one whenever the books start coming out!

I guess I am getting spoiled by modern writers. I really WANT Visitor to be good, but two issues in and the most excitement I have for it is hoping the next issue will be better. I apologize to anyone personally invested in these, but Valiant has been my favorite comic book company since the 90's. ...

I am now so far behind in my Valiant reading that I have not even gotten to any January releases yet. But The Visitor & Rai are the only two that I'm really interested in reading, if I'm being honest.

I’m a member of both the Valiant Fan Page & the Bad Idea fan page on Facebook. I’m anticipating what Dino & crew have up their sleeves, and I’m a fan of their creative output based on what they did for VEI. While I’m a lot less enthusiastic about current Valiant output on average, I’m still a Valia...

Heyyyyy Grendel’s back! :high-five: I think swierczynski’s tragedy happened not that long ago, the last 2 -3 years I thought? What are your thoughts on current Bloodshot it has your reading fallen behind? When are you back on VCR? Speaking of VCR, where’s Chris?! Oh yeah, I think it was his daughte...

Nevermind... https://www.google.com/amp/s/screenrant.com/marvel-first-superhero-dinosaur-starbrand/amp/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Wait! So a Starbrand is the Protector of Earth? It's Fist and Steel? Or in the case of the dino, the Tooth and the Claw? Was the dinosaur sentient a...

It's pretty telling that ALL (or at least nearly all) the advertising for Bloodshot trades is around the Swierczynski run on the book. Although if someone bought a Seeley/Booth issue, I doubt they'd be induced into pumping money into an "old" trade. I think the swierczynski run might be the best, b...

In my best David Attenborough voice: "And down here, at this strata, we can see the oldest remnants of the Valiant Period. It continued for some time until the Acclaim cataclysm. Further up, we see the ensuing periods, short-lived though the were. Here, Defiant. And this thin line here is the littl...

I think that at the time of the Greg Pak run on EW, there was an editorial clash with some of his plot ideas for the title after it got rolling. It had an impact on the direction of that book, and subsequently some of the continuity that was beginning to be established in those two story arcs. The s...

I really think piracy really hurts comics sales more than other media. I really think piracy concerns are overblown in almost all cases, but I feel like it's maybe understated with regards to comics. The small file size and ease of reading makes pirated comics more appealing than the legitimate pro...

Lazarus: Risen part 3 is out this week!

Click on this link to see an incredible Starbrand cover for the upcoming Avengers 27. https://www.previewsworld.com/Catalog/SEP190901" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I was going to comment on this , I love this cover! I so enjoyed Starbrand and can’t wait for it to be brought back co...

A whole bunch of original art pages from Grendel: War Child surfaced on eBay back in October... they were all coming from Pat McKeown's own collection, for sale for the very first time in all these years since the comic was released! I was in utter agony, as I couldn't afford any of them at the time...

I most certainly have been reading Grendel Odyssey, 'Tuga!! I was skeptical of this as a story arc for the series before reading it - Outer space exploration feels very out of place as a backdrop for such a mature, dark series set largely in a dystopian world that is constantly on the verge of socia...

That cover is so sweet, especially with the retro trade dress!!

Might have to pick one of these up. I wish it looked more like the comic version rather than Vin Diesel, but oh well... You can magic marker a lightning bolt in some black hair on his head. :D I just had images of my childhood friends doing the same sorts of things to Barbie dolls back in the day, ...
