Name: Anthony Straus

Bio: I've always loved comics but didn't start buying consistently until 2008. I'm a Canadian stop-motion animator with experience on ParaNorman, The Boxtrolls, Robot Chicken Season 6 and the Robot Chicken DC Comics Special. My closest stint with comics professionally was when I posed the Robot Chicken puppets for the RC variant cover of Aquaman #12.

April 2, 2013 1:51 am Scrap the paper edition?!? If you don't want it, why not sell it off (minus the digital code) at a discounted price? Or just switch straight to digital? Then again, I suppose it is pretty ridiculous that Marvel thinks it can charge the same price for new digital issues as for the paper edition+digital code.
March 31, 2013 11:55 pm Nice script for the finale, though I will say the pacing feels kind of rushed. Special thanks to TIm Seeley for creating these iconic characters. I'll be there if and when this series returns or that movie deal ever comes through.
March 31, 2013 6:33 pm The first issue okay, but not particularly special. Mark Waid has a tendency to build momentum as he goes though, so I'm going to continue with this series for now because of my faith in his writing. I like Daniel Indro's art, its got some nice dynamics in the posing and layouts. I noticed the odd guns that mikeandzod21 pointed out too; is there an element of fantasy in play leftover from Green Hornet Year One? I didn't pick up that one.
March 31, 2013 6:18 pm Awesome setup in the first issue, I'm very interested to see where Hickman takes it from here.
March 28, 2013 12:02 am Great issue, I haven't anticipated the next issue of Elephantmen this much for some time. After the bad test left in my mouth from #46, I'm ready to love this series again.
