Mangaman

09/16/09

Update- some stuff pulled but I got those preordered so I won't be seeing them until end of Sept, saved a good 15 bux too so I suppose I saved 30 bux this week total. *sigh* soon I'll be a year behind everyone reading issues.

Judging from what's on Diamond next week it seems that I'm actually going to buy nothing new. ^^! I did find a longbox full of 33 cent back issues though so sayanora $3.00 comix! =p

About Mangaman: Who am I? I'm a guy just like you. Well no... maybe not like you... exactly but you get the picture.

I like comics BUT I also like Manga... So much so that I have an extensive memory of what mangas are fun to read, are good for self-awareness politically, some that are just plain hilarious. No I'm not all about Mangas, I love comics slightly more than I do Manga, HOWEVER; if you ever have a desire to break into the field free of the stigma I have suggestions you may like (but depending on your tastes...). Of course you'll have to specify on things you like, but trust me, there are really energetic Mangas that break away from wordiness and for those trying to save a buck you can read a few online for free due to some creators opening their works to the public domain. 
I'm also on Revision3 as "The Mangaman" (Mangaman was taken =| ... who the hell wants to be Mangaman other than myself? O_o?

So feel free to drop me a pm should you ever desire that. ^_^!

It's pretty cool. Didn't hear anything about the Damned though.

ECCC 2010: Hack/Slash moves to Image Comics

Yeah I was pretty proud of Seeley. He seemed pretty happy. I hope this big step will get his book where it needs to go because, brandname be damned, it's my favorite indie book out there.

AVENGERS ACADEMY gets two more... Finesse and Hazmat

On Mar 12, 2010 1:04 PM

I do like the fact that this team is looking somewhat diverse. Reptil being hispanic and now Hazmat who's of asian descent. Finesse has been done to death already. They're called Echo and Task Master. Both of whom I wouldn't mind seeing on a team altogether. Hey now there's an idea, a martial arts black ops group: Mr. X Ronin/Barton Echo Task Master Shang Chi Iron Fist Dare Devil or El...

Apple's iBookstore Adds Comics, Graphic Novels and Manga

@ Diabhol : being a shareholder doesn't mean a company has to do what you say. There are a group of shareholders in the company I work for and alot of times the work community doesn't honor what they say which isn't chalked up to bad business but more along the lines of business decisions. If a company ultimately makes a decision about something, there's very little the shareholder can do a...

AVENGERS ACADEMY Gets its Fourth Student...Fortress

On Mar 11, 2010 12:07 PM

I have only two questions after seeing this: 1. Who comes up with these character designs? 2. Who comes up with these concepts? @convoy83: I can't believe you just made a dragonball z reference.

EXCLUSIVE: 'Hawkeye and Mockingbird' Ongoing Series From Marvel!

On Mar 10, 2010 3:00 PM

NO! NOT LIKE THIS!!!! =| Hawkeye will wear the Ronin costume again eventually right.... RIGHT?!? xD I kid though. Seriously, I think Bullseye in that costume left a bad taste in my mouth because I can't see that costume the way I used to.

AVENGERS ACADEMY Gets Its Third Student... Reptil

On Mar 10, 2010 12:19 PM

@JesTr @RoiVampire XD! Me too!! I have that issue on the coffee table, reread it. He seems interesting enough to put on a team. Hate the name but he's a unique character.

iFanboy - Episode #153 - Letterers, Colorists and Inkers

On Mar 10, 2010 1:16 AM

@conor: I'm glad you made note of how everything looked flat back then. I was always wondering why images of the final product bothered me but not the pencils. Has any professional inkers and colorists finished any of his untouched pencils? It'd be interesting to see the product on that.

AVENGERS ACADEMY Gets Its Second Student... Striker

On Mar 9, 2010 12:07 PM

reminds me of that fellow from The Authority. That doesn't make me want it. This guy really looks like the brooding type. Why couldn't they bring back Trauma from Avenger's Initiative? That would have been so boss to see him develope his phobic-metamorphasis ability. In fact I could think of five characters right now that would make for an interesting avengers idea. I feel like the marvel team ...
