September 24, 2011 12:33 pm Letterers! I have one. In fact, she's the only letterer I ever took note of. Hope Larson lettered the first few issues of Brian Wood's "Local," which I know is a favorite of Ron's. She then went on to do some great creator-owned indie stuff as a writer and illustrator - but I first noticed her as a letterer. There you have it.
Also - Katie Cook is a great artist. she specializes in "adorable" but ("but" as if i have to justify "adorable" which i shouldn't) it works well for Fraggle Rock and her web comic, Gronk.
This was a great show.
December 16, 2008 10:26 am i was honestly growing tired of this by the end of the first 8 part run. I'm glad i've held on, though. #9 reminded me that Ellis is an amazing storyteller. I hope that the schedule remains tight on this, so that i don't have to re-read everytime.
I'm only reading Astonishing - am I missing some continuity here? I'm on Astonishing because of the Wheedon run; it was a nice isolated story, right? I have been feeling like i'm missing something since Ellis jumped on and everyone's in SF. Storm comes along and there's no "hi-how are you."
how far back into Uncanny would i need to get in order to feel up to speed with Astonishing? I hate even having to ask that question - i'm not interested in buying everything so that i can enjoy one thing. know what i mean?
Watchmen and Invicible are definitely enjoyable in any attempted re-formatting - but, this doesn't feel new to me. It's kind of how my brain see's comics as i read them anyway. Don't get me wrong. I think the format shows promise - especially as more and more pages are drawn digitally so the source material is on hand anyway. This might be the most feasible way to get a (non-pdf) comic book on your ipod that's not a photogallery.
I'm looking forward to buying all my pulls from the last month! I only get paid once a month, so this week is it, man. I'm so into books this weekend. This week in particular I'm hyped for the Newuniversal Kieron Gillen one shot. and the wrap up of the firts Northlanders arc.
July 29, 2008 1:57 pm so would you recommend the trade of the original NU run? Is it essential reading? Sometimes I do feel like I'm missing something; but, that could be Elliss treating me like an intelligent reader...

i am becoming disinterested in this. I loved Wheedon's run because i didn't have to keep up with other x-title to know what's going on.
having to do reasearch to start a new story arc in a series that you'd been following since early on? BUNK! Bunk, i say.
I'll pull it and see how upset i am for next month.
