Pick of the Week Podcast

Pick of the Week #387 – Daredevil #26

Show Notes

In week where one comic book really showed the rest how it’s done, another one ended an epic run, and a third began an unwelcome crossover, Conor Kilpatrick worked blue, Josh Flanagan was sleepy, and Paul Montgomery espoused some… interesting ideas about population control.

    Josh, I get what you mean regarding your aversion to a Vertigo crossover. I have been enjoying The Unwritten since the beginning, and my hope is that Carey is going to take this opportunity to do a commentary of sorts on the concept of crossovers in general. I could see this as a possibility, because this whole title has been a commentary on the nature and effect of stories. I think it would be awesome if Carey and Gross managed to pull that off. I share your concerns about this being a “Jump the shark” type thing, and I really hope it’s not, because this is one of my favorite books and I would hate to see it be tarnished.

      It’s not like I’m gonna drop the book. The issues might even be enjoyable, but I don’t like what it symbolizes. I’ll live.

      I think Josh summed it up pretty well in the podcast. I feel the same. And while I trust in Carey and Gross to pull it through, I wish hell had something more interesting/shocking/creepy, than the bad Fables characters.

    While i’m a little disappointed that Young Avengers 5 didn’t make the show, Journey into Mystery had BETA RAY BILL so any talk about him is a perfect trade off.
