Stop Me if You Read This One Before — Or Don’t!
October 18, 2011 1:10 pm Yeah, if all of the dramatic tension in a story comes from violence, there has to be real stakes behind that violence. That's why I far prefer creator owned books like Criminal or Invincible to Trademark Servicing similar genre books like Daredevil or JLA.

The NEW Ultimate Spider-Man Identity Revealed – SPOILERS
August 5, 2011 11:29 pm @Myself: I checked it out and over all the ratings have been consistently solid, just taking a dip during the Ultimatum cross-over.

The NEW Ultimate Spider-Man Identity Revealed – SPOILERS
August 5, 2011 11:16 pm I'd be curious to see a graph of the iFanboy ratings on Ultimate Spider-man. I always loved Ult. Spider-man when it was BMB's self contained storyline, where almost 10 years of comics covered a few months of Peter Parker's life. But ever since Ultimatum the quality of the book has suffered imo. If I hear that the Miles Morales Ultimate Spider-man is the back up to the book's former quality, I'll definitely pick up the trades. But if they continue from Ultimate cross-over to Ultimate cross-over I don't expect to regret taking a pass on Volume 2.

New Comics for 05.11.2011 has Superman on the brain
May 9, 2011 5:42 pm Irredeemable trade for me. BQ I'd probably go batshit along with the rest of the people who realized my existence meant the universe was fictional.

Abandoning the Martyr Mentality
April 14, 2011 8:07 am You are correct that crazy big event are not a disservice to fans of Marvel or DC. I think they are a disservice to fans of the talent at Marvel and DC if their work is being compromised by the constraints of event servicing. But that talent has to make a living in order to put out the indy books I prefer, so I don't hold it against them.

March 29, 2011 10:16 am I hope there is an ad for the next volume of Hip Flask in this. How long has Sarengheti had his sights on Sahara? Four years?
