May 6, 2013 11:40 am There probably isn't a bigger Prime fanboy than me, but I don't want to see a movie made. I remember waiting in anticipation for the Spawn movie…. and honestly, any hollywood adaption of Prime (including the example given) more resembles the Spawn movie than anything else. It was a very 90's book dealing with very 90's problems. To make it truly relevant for the times, does not mean adding cuteness… It would definitely need to be a rated R flick. If anything, I just want Marvel to release the books in Hardcover format.

April 30, 2013 12:30 pm Puts things into perspective. Great article Mike! I agree with some of the points on Iron Man 2 as well. There were a LOT of fan-service moments, quite a few appealed to me, but I think Emotional cohesion wasn't what that movie needed, it needed physical cohesion. From everything I've read and seen, Iron Man 3 should hit every single note though.

March 11, 2013 12:55 pm It's always a good story when you read about a LCS doing good. My LCS doesn't seem to be slowing either. The owner s passionate about the medium and has a huge customer base for comics alone. Pair that with a massive local market for Magic: The Gathering and this shop being one of two places to play tournament Magic and he's weathering the slow American economy just fine. http://www.doyleclark.com

June 20, 2012 2:30 pm I'm all in for this idea!

June 4, 2012 12:33 pm yeah… about that… if Game of Thrones (the HBO series) were a comic book, I probably would have dropped it during the middle of season 2. Not to say I have not had some satisfaction in every episode, but it's been very little. Which leads to me to my next point: I really want to start reading the book series now so I can fast forward and see what's going to (possibly) happen. If that is one of the shows motives, well played.

June 1, 2012 10:54 am I agree with Josh, the big two have been "looking across the street" for ideas from each other for a very long time. This practice has given us some of the best stories and characters. It's all about bringing readers in. Stan Lee talked about this sort of thing on a previous iFanboy video podcast.

May 8, 2012 12:59 pm Great article Mike. My answer to the question of "Do we really want a sequel?" is yes, but I want a really good sequel. I think Thanos will require some build up. His cameo puzzled the audience I was in. People were clueless as to who he was and why he would be important.

May 7, 2012 1:04 pm Art: After seeing Avengers I decided to renew a love for Thor by picking up Mighty Thor #13 on FCBD, but the art was confusing. So confusing, I thought that the book had been printed slightly out of order. I've heard great things about Fraction's run, so I'm hoping the next issue will be more clear.

May 7, 2012 12:58 pm I agree with that first point. A retailer could never afford to boycott Marvel or DC. At the same time, those two companies have enough problems looking like the bad guy to the fanboys (for various reasons and various opinions) and I think they would be afraid of looking like a bully.
