Re: What comics are you reading now?
I try to do one big re-read/marathon series a year. It helps my budget to revisit stuff mostly already in my collection. It was going to be Knightfall, but Heroes in Crisis and the new omnis for Infinite and Final steered me this way. :thumb: I try to do that every year or so with a long re-read of...

Re: Stan Lee died today
And if you ask random Joe who said that "with great power..." they will probably say 2 huge political or military historical figures before they quit and make that "say what?" look when you tell them the origin of the phrase. That's crazy. Stan popularized the phrase, but he did...

Re: Valiant Sunday - Harbinger Beginning with Joshua Dysart
Will definitely give it a listen, Jace- Thanks for posting. Really curious to hear him talk about how he decided to make such a risky/edgy book within the superpowered people genre. The preview for issue 1... still remember the IGOTTAREADTHIS feels.

Re: Undervalued Gems
All that said, I do like IF #14 as unvalued gem. I have no pretense Sabretooth's intro will ever reach values of ASM 129, Hulk 181, or any of the others during this time period, I personally still think this one has some room to grow. The character has not been treated well in the movies. The origi...

Re: preview of Bloodshot: Rising Spirit aka Valiant suck now
I'll probably be the only voice over on my side of the table, but I'm going to take a shot anyway. One of the best things about the original VEI 2012 run on Bloodshot was that there was a real and true sense of falsehood: at any given moment in the comic the reader could never really be 100% certai...

Re: Single favorite cover of all time (Not VALIANT)
This is a really hard choice. Only one... :hm: I'll have to go with this one- lots of nostalgia attached to it and besides the fact that it is absolutely gorgeous and the cover of the first issue of my all-time favourite story, it told you right away that this book was not your regular comic .

Probably the most iconic Superman story for a lot of folks. Absolute classic and a must read for any comic book fan.

Re: Uncanny X-Men #108 - 143 | Claremont & Byrne
One of the most iconic moments of this run, imho.
I love this issue (117, debut of Shadow King), and this particular sequence (after a tremendous "psi-war" between these 2) is just awesome comics. This doesn't need any words if one is reading the story.
