Comic Book Discussion Thread

i know the majority of comic heads regard dc as this great bastion of talent & entertainment. and in the past they have been.

but as for right now......i just dont see it. at all.

i cant name 3 dc (not including vertigo) books that could spark my interest even halfway as much as marvels best superhero fare.

i was getting green lantern, but i have become bored with the rainbow ring space opera. i just stopped giving a fuck about 7 months ago. its just got amazingly boring to me.

i will admit, i dont read some of the best stuff dc has going right now (secret six, the morrison batman stuff). but the 4-5 dc books i was getting just didnt do anything for me at all. and i hate that fuckin "son" of batman damien as a character. a bratty little assassin. have deathstroke snap his scrawny little faggot neck and then you'll have a new reader. lol.

their major "events" have little to no effect on the universe as a whole (even less than marvel for the past 8 years).

i want to like some dc stuff, but it just ain't happenin' right now for me.

make mine marvel. even the mediocre stuff.lol

hahahahahahaha....i'm waiting on mine in the mail...meanwhile i got the silver surfer omnibus in a trade set up on the marvel masterworks forum for the 'roots of swamp thing' hardcover and the two 'the losers' tpbs

meanwhile, 'x-force' is sooooo fucking good, and ASM is the shit (but my god was the ghost rider back up just horrible all around)...reading 'secret warriors' and 'shield infinity' back to back make me feel like hickman hides his inability to create compelling plots or characters behind cryptic pseudo-intellectualism...it's entertaining for a while, until you realize there isn't going to be an effective payoff...plus i've gotta stop fucking with comics that i can finish reading before i've finished a cigarette.

batman and robin's artwork was boss but the story was uninspired...'detective comics' on the other hand was incredible.

did anyone get the madman special? good shit.

of course, i did and it was boss, i miss Frank eloels.

and for christ cakes, have u read Xombi or not?

nah i missed it and am cursing myself because frazier irving is awesome.
