Fuck, I loved this fucking series. I have all floppies, the Omnibus and even the first hardcover. Fucking *Awesome*.

My new catchphrse:   AAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR BITCHES!!!!   Mike Rocks. 

I love you Jim. Seriously. You and I think alike, except you're funny. I ever make it to St. Louis again I'm buying you a beer, and maybe some "slumping" comics like Thor or Cable. 

Picked this book up for kicks n' giggles. Man, does it absolutely scream "Image Comics 1997." Art, story, dialogue are all blasts from the not-too-distant past. The publisher should put the old-school Image I on the upper left corner. By the end I was expecting house ads for Gen13 Bootleg. Not bad, not good, just...dated.

Thanks Sonia. If this article gets even one person to buy - or even read - FF: Big in Japan then you've done a public service. Seth Fisher was...words fail me. Just go get it people. 

Cassaday, Bolland, Lee. That's pretty much all that needs be said. Hell, even just looking down the barrel of a gun is gorgeous when JC does it.. Jae's a madman and Bolland? Hell, he's just... Bolland. One of the all-timers, cover-wise. God damn Alan Moore for making BB eschew interiors.   Good picks, one and all.

Bettie Page mug from Dark Horse. See, when the mug gets hot the leopard spots disappear and you can see her au naturale. Awesome. BQ: Sure I go. After all, any friend of Tim Bradsteet is a friend of mine. And I wouldn't call a loved one, I'd leave a voicemail on iFanboy. 

Congratulations to every winner and nominee, except for Morrison and Quitely.   Yes, All-Star Superman was a great book BUT: a) TWO issues published since the 2008 Eisners; and b) IT'S NOT "CONTINUING." Should it receive accolades and be celebrated as a pinnacle achievement in the superhero comic form? Yes. Should it have even been nominated in its category? No. No, no, n...

I AM Bob. Literally. That's my name. Oh, Gene "the Machine" Colan on Cap. POTW.

No one ever asks him about his Gen13 run with Gary Frank. That's too bad. Those were some pretty good comics and even though Frank has blown up and become a Big Name, those dozen or so issues are more or less lost to history now.
