    February 18, 2012 8:09 am Thanks, Paul. I figured it might have just been a rallying cry type thing, but wasn't 100 percent sure.
    February 18, 2012 7:25 am When I get back from abroad, one of the first things I'm doing is grabbing the trades of this and trying to catch up. I'm really sicck of missing out on this book. It makes me feel dumb that I didn't jump on right away. Deadpool scared me off. Should have just given it a chance.

    February 17, 2012 10:34 am Proving again that Immomen and Sook are at the top of their field and should always be treated as such. That X-Factor cover is also stellar. I bet it stood out great on the stands.
    February 17, 2012 6:00 am I've never read Peter Pan before (I KNOW!!!) but the cover of this series totally hooked me and I loved the book. Just wanted to ask for some clarification from someone who knows the mythology a little better. I was a bit confused by the last page. If I remember right, Peter has some sort of yell, howl, or call, but I can't remember if it had any special power or special meaning. Can someone fill me in? Also, great review Josh. Made me go back and reread the issue. Really impressed by Jenkins' ability to know when to let the panels get simple and iconic. Went a long way in conveying the hectic nature of the battlefield. It really felt like they were scrambling around and dodging bullets etc. Very clever. That takes restraint. Over-rendering a panel can be a huge problem that I think we see far too often in comics.
    December 19, 2011 9:18 pm I've had a rule for a few months now that's made my internet experience so much better. If I'm reading comments and one starts with "um, actually" or any derivation of that, I skip it. It's wonderful.
    December 19, 2011 7:26 pm Either that or I could take another glance at things before I post. That's what happens when you're slacking off on iFanboy instead of studying for your Media Ethics final.
    December 19, 2011 7:25 pm Full disclosure: I physically cringed when Josh said it on the podcast because his hatred of the word has really rubbed off on me. I was relieved to hear it was a user review.
    December 19, 2011 6:59 pm I'm sorry, when you wrote "non article" I read it as an insult to this article instead of "in the comments and whatnot." You may see it as snide, but when it's usually busting peoples' chops who are being trolls, it tends to not bother me. That might be an issue of mine, though.
