But the book hasn't even been made yet. That is my problem. Kick-Ass (which became a great movie) only had like 1 issue out when it was purchased by the studio. That's ridiculous, but at least there was an issue. He sells his ideas twice, to two mediums, at the same time. That's messed up. This is why his books take so long to finish. Because before he has them written he's on the set watching the film get made. Jane Goldman wrote the film based mainly off of Millar's pitch, not the comic. Why do both? It's like when they release things like Batman Begins as a comic, just to cash in on it.

Millar thinks up a crazy, shock-factor-obsessed pitch, then makes a comic to go along with the movie so he can get paid twice.

If the book was well recieved and people wanted more of it, or a film could do something great with it, then go ahead. But selling it as both a comic and a movie before anyone has even heard of it. That is just ass-ish. I get that his books are cinematic and all, but make up your mind as to which work is in which medium. He should stop having his cake and eating it too.

And to think I was going to make a joke about who was going to be cast to play them.

C'Mon! If he wants to write movies why doesn't he just cut out the middle?!

That is Gwen Stacy!

I've always been a fan of Raimi's trilogy (all 3) and this is looking on the right track.

I hope Webb will combine the super stuff with the quiter stuff like I hope.

Next year will be the best year for big films since '08.

Could it set the new bar? Hmmm... 
July 13, 2011 6:09 pm KP is my favourite Super. Period.

And she looks great inside this book too. I'll be buying for sure.

Not much a Marvel guy, myself. But I love X Books.

I don't think many persons here being geeky/dorky or whatever, has greatly skewed the average opinion of this thing on here. I haven't seen generally positive reactions anywhere.

Also damn RHW, she isn't even an actress. Fox, I like. At least she was playing a character, not just set dressing. 
July 7, 2011 12:57 pm That looks briiliant!

Looks like another DCU animation I'll be happy to import.

The cover looks pretty damn sweet. 
July 6, 2011 12:00 pm @MikefromGotham: OK. I forgive you. Ha Ha Ha.
July 4, 2011 4:53 pm @comicBOOKchris: Very true. That'll be a real downer if he isn't recast as JJJ. The best extra footage in 2.1 was him in the suit.
July 3, 2011 7:21 pm @MikefromGotham:

OK, I may be overreaccting here, but did you just put GoodFellas, The Godfather and this... thing in the same sentence?

I have no problem with you liking it, it is mde to be enjoyed. But oh, that just took the jam out of my dohnut, right there.
June 30, 2011 1:16 pm I'm so glad that this is happening!

I've been only skimming the DCU for the last 8 years (my time reading).

I've got the obvious books, but have been wanting to truly immerse myelf in the universe.

This is now my chance!
