Having read all but two of the issues, All Star Superman #12 left me with a feeling that i can't describe although i can say that i now know what it feels like to be cracked. Maybe i should just lock myself in a padded room, curl up in the fetal position with my stack of Marvel comics and cry for mommy.

Grant Morrison? MOMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

September 19, 2008 4:08 am All i have to say is that the brothers Luna are BADASS! Okay, i lied. Stretching out a fight for over three issues eschewing dialog for quiet tension moved me more than a comic has all....week. I have to clarify by saying that this is a feat. The last page had me clutching at my non-existant phantom limbs with one hand and waving an imaginary sword with the other. Love it. BADASS!

I checked both of my favorite shops around L.A. and nuthin'! No ECHO. Must be those dreaded shipping gremlins.

As long as i'm writing words i may as well chime in and say that i lovelovelove this book even without having read Terry Moore comics before. The story unfolds naturally without feeling limited by the format and the art, Oh my god! If you are a human and do not fall in love with Mr. Moore's images, you are probably not a human. You are probably dead. 

'Nuff said.

May 14, 2008 6:20 am  I must admit that i quite like this book in spite of the fact that it seems to suffer from a sort of dated narrative style. It seems to simultaneously tell a story that reminds me of my younger days and tell it in that watered down "hey look at me rip off John Hughes!...oh, and it's the mid-nineties!" kind of way. Jeez, now i feel like a right bastard.  Anyway, i did quite enjoy last issues wild night of excess and the all too familiar falling for the wrong girl stuff. Later.
