January 27, 2012 5:00 pm I agree too. McKelvie and Pichelli are far more similar and would compliment each other well. I love Samnee but he just isn't a perfect match.

January 3, 2012 7:32 pm Amazing what a colorist can do for art. This looks so much better than when he was on Cap. Bettie Breitweiser is amazing. Marvel has some of the best colorists around

September 28, 2011 4:47 pm While I still want Jean back, this is a great idea. She was supposed to be headmistress right before she was killed so naming the school after her is a fitting tribute.

July 21, 2011 10:22 pm Love it!

July 19, 2011 10:17 am Don't mind Garfield at all but I dont really like this idea of first person webslinging.  Kind of nauseating.  Hopefully they wrap up the origin stuff quickly.  I agree this made me think about the Raimi films alot.

July 18, 2011 12:22 pm Really like the New Avengers one!
 

July 14, 2011 9:13 am @misterckent I'd say the girl in pages 1-2 is Karen based on the Green eyes and the fact she is meeting an older woman with red hair who I would assume to be Jean's mom.

July 12, 2011 1:25 pm I think Jean is the top one personally.  I hope when she finally does return she goes to Logan's side.  I think that would make for interesting dynamics.

June 29, 2011 3:36 pm Can't wait for this! Sad to see it pushed into August though.

June 17, 2011 6:56 pm It was Sinestro putting on the yellow ring and costume.


I'd give it a 2 out 5. It wasn't the worst ever but I'd say its at Wolverine levels. I agree that it feels like the stuck two movies together.  The movie went from origin origin origin to suddenly fighting the biggest villain in the known universe in like 30 seconds.  I felt like the skipped a whole section of the film.  Suddenly Paralax was just there and Hal was fighting it alone. I know he's the hero but he trained with Kilowog for all of 3 minutes and suddenly he's just "great"? I find that hard to believe.  Also the scene with the guardians where Hal made his speech was totally unearned and pointless. They just brushed him off and so does Sinestro yet suddenly just as Hal is collapsing Tomar, Kilowog and Sinestro just decide to show up?  After they so causually dismissed his plan? That just doesn't sit right with me. I felt like the producers/writers made a decent origin movie up until the point paralax showed up on earth. It was just too soon for that kind of a battle and a victory.  Also, why would Sinestro think to even put on the yellow ring after the credits when he just watched the emodiment of fear get burned up in the sun? 

Blake lively was my biggest concern going into this. She wasn't as bad as I thought. Though I found it unbelievable that they knew each other as kids.  Wasn't she supposed to be there when Hal watched his Dad blow up?  I think they had to change it to they knew each other as kids and not grew up together because the age disparity is simply too great.

Not horrible but not great. First Class and Thor rise heads and tails above this.  Also that last effect shot of him flying out of Ferris Aircraft was some of the fakest looking shit in the movie. To end with that is horrifying.
