I think this may be the best adaptation of a comic book movie ever.  The only other one I ever was so into and just taken by was the first Spiderman (especially when he is first swinging thru NY.)

It is defintly in my top 3 movies of the year.  I want to put it number 1, but the emotional response I got while watching Toy Story 3 is hard to overcome and Inception was just an amazing piece of film-making.

I think I also went with very low expectations.  I did not like the trailers.  But all of the reviews were just over-glowing.

I'm with Conor on the "how does this play to the civilian?"  The trailers actually make me not want to see it.  They seem so over the top and hokey. 

When I told my wife about all the good reviews the movie was receiving, she didn't look thrilled, because she knew that meant that my hopes were revived.

June 9, 2010 4:22 pm if I were to guess Conor's pick (without reading any of the books) I going to go with SHIELD #2 or Justice League: Generation Lost #3......Batman seems to be too on the nose.

@PostMan - the book is not bi-monthly because of Hickman, it is because of the art.

June 8, 2010 2:42 pm this is the first book I have ever double dipped on....

I got my LCS guy to read the first Mighty trade He loved it and then sold like 5 more copies of the trade just because he was able to tell people about it.

May 26, 2010 3:02 pm The last 2 page spread of Ghost Rider....amazing

May 26, 2010 2:54 pm Everytime I read this book, I get that sick feeling in my stomach that I started getting at the end of Trinity.  I like Bagley's stuff on pretty much everything else but it just doesn't seem to connect with me when he does DC work.
