Comic Fans and the Conundrum of General Interest
November 3, 2011 10:19 am I'm a big tokusatsu fan too. I'm mostly into Kamen Rider, but have been known to enjoy some sentai and GARO as well. I collect SH Figuarts when I'm not broke.
I think toku would appeal hugely to cape comic fans if they knew about it. Everyone I've gotten to watch Kamen Rider W absolutely loved it.
I also always have some comics that no one else seems to be reading. I have a lot of comic reading friends, but none of them read Daredevil, Severed, Green Wake, or most non-cape books I like. And almost all of them read more X-books than I do.

Stop Me if You Read This One Before — Or Don’t!
October 18, 2011 7:35 pm I have a few story types I never get sick of reading. The ultimate for me is stories where the hero or heroes are completely outmatched, and go off to fight anyway. Whether they pull out the impossible win or go down fighting their hardest, it gets me every time.

Pick of the Week #304 – The Flash #1
October 3, 2011 6:10 pm I'd guess Legion Lost, since there's already a Legion title, the Legion fanbase is small and probably isn't going to grow hugely, and it didn't seem to be very well received. Seems like it'd be easy to wrap the series up and to get the characters back into the main Legion book. Could even run it as a backup in Legion.

October 2, 2011 3:59 pm It's Bart in Teen Titans, and his current costume is supposed to thrown together and homemade. I can't remember if this was in the issue or if just in interviews.

What’s Wrong With You: DC Comics Relaunch
October 1, 2011 10:10 am Detective Comics wasn't any worse than Tony Daniel's Batman stories. Honestly, I didn't like the issue but it was better than the last issue of his Batman I read.

BREAKING: Keith Giffen to Replace George Perez as SUPERMAN Writer
October 1, 2011 9:54 am Bryan Q. Miller said he was doing something for DC that wasn't one of the DCnU books. Maybe a OGN or a kid's comic?
Nick Spencer is Marvel exclusive, but he's still doing THUNDER Agents for DC. Believe it's back in November.

The iFanboy Letter Column – 09.30.2011
October 1, 2011 12:18 am This drives me nuts too. Especially when it's part of the narration. It can sometimes work in dialogue, but it often doesn't.
Talking heads comics should be few and far between. Like a bottle episode of a TV show, giving you character work you might not get in a story with more going on.

Pick of the Week #302 – Demon Knights #1
September 18, 2011 7:03 pm Renee isn't dead. I think the reboot's made people really paranoid about this stuff! JH Williams III said the pictures were of Officers who had recently received special commendations.
