This book just keeps killing it. I was never that big an Age of Apocalypse fan and for the most…

Marvel’s Digital Disarray
April 24, 2012 3:00 pm I knew about the AR app ahead of time, so wasn't bothered by the AR icons on panel.(Mike, you work for iFanboy and hadn't read the Marvel's SXSW announcement about how AR would change the world?) yes, it's a gimmick, except for the man speaking in my headphones before he walked onscreen and scaring the crap out of me. as for redeeming the 'free' digital copy, it's not driving me to the $3.99 books, but I like that I can put it on my ipad for my commute and leave the physical copy at home. And when i donate the comic, I like that i still have the digital copied saved, makes me feel like i didn't completely throw away my money, even if i never read it again

BATMAN: ODYSSEY VOL 2 #3 (OF 7)
December 23, 2011 12:14 pm This book is a perfect example of the only drawback of ordering through DCBS: I decided to give this one more shot with the new #1, and had ordered 2 and 3 before I read the absolute nonsense of the first issue. I still love the art, especially the Sienkiewicz inks and Bruce Wayne's hirsuteness (hirsutitude?), but my lord Neal Adams needs an editor.

AVENGERS ACADEMY #23
December 23, 2011 11:39 am Loved this book since the beginning, very worried about Grummett taking over on art. I thought he was decent in the 80s and 90s, but his work on X-Men Forever was atrocious. But I love Gage's writing, I'm not going anywhere

GREEN LANTERN NEW GUARDIANS #1
October 4, 2011 1:55 pm Thanks for this review, it saved me from writing the same exact thing. I felt a little better about the art, but the story was horrible; actually, make that non-existent. I'm surprised at the number of favorable reviews.

X-MEN: REGENESIS: Two New Books in the Wake of SCHISM
June 16, 2011 3:44 pm Greg Land is still on? Thank you Marvel for giving me a jumping off point. I'd rather read a Chuck Austen-written reboot of Fallen Angels drawn by Bret Blevins than ever see a panel drawn by Land again. Too bad, too, I'm a Gillen fan

First Look: X-Men: First Class Trailer
February 11, 2011 8:59 am i gotta say, what a great trailer. i had absolutely no interest in seeing this, especially with the inclusion of Azazel (he who drove me out of comics for 3 years), but this blew me away. very excited

KA-ZAR BY MARK WAID & ANDY KUBERT TP VOL 01
December 28, 2010 8:04 pm I agree. Terrific, short-lived series. I loved the sheer insanity of Ka-Zar facing the Red Skull with the Cosmic Cube. And this series probably cemented my love for Andy Kubert's art.

AVENGERS ACADEMY #7
December 16, 2010 1:29 pm hmm, sorry, sure enough it's Raney, he's on the cover, though the credit page and even the solicit above says McKone. it's a shame, if i were expecting Raney, i would've enjoyed it a lot more, instead of thinking the entire time, "why the hell are the inkers making McKone look like Raney."

AVENGERS ACADEMY #7
December 16, 2010 1:13 pm Was this really McKone pencilling? I've been a fan of his for years, he's one of the artists whose style is instantly recognizable, and this looked like Tom Raney to me, another artist with his own distinct style. Was it the inking? I don't remember Hanna ever changing things up that drastically, but I'm not familiar with Meikis. Not that the art was bad, just completely different from what I expect from McKone and completely took me out of the comic. Not to mention another Pym self-analytical whinefest which we just went through last year in Mighty Avengers.
