July 20, 2013 2:15 pm I rhino a stampeding think with a horn.
October 30, 2012 11:11 am I am not even sure if we all read the same comic book. Threadbare rationale for getting the team together and having Havoc as the leader of the team (Remender's blue eyed, blond Teutonic leanings are starting to make me nervous now). A text book case of a marketing initiative hammered into a shapeless creative endeavor. Remender's style of abrupt cutaways robbed any scenes of any buildup and emotional impact he was seeking to achieve. And were we really meant to be taking Red Skull's motley henchmen seriously? Seriously!? Where the new iteration of the Four Horsemen in Uncanny X-Force was sublime and inspired, here when I saw the Living Wind unleashed, I went... surely Remender's taking the mickey. And the art OMG. The same people that lament Land and Larrocca were singing praises of this? I counted a dozen different photo-refs used for Havoc, and about five for Wolverine, I started to wonder if they had gained shape-shifting as a blossoming latent mutant ability. And most of the backgrounds were photographs dropped straight in, poorly skewed and realigned and dropped in... just like that!!
September 7, 2012 2:22 pm Having said that I do miss the grungy ghettotastic style he had on the first arc of Iron Fist. It was like the best 70s kungfu blaxploitation flick never made.
September 7, 2012 2:18 pm Garney on X Force will be awesome, but I remain underwhelmed by Humphries. His writing on the last John Carter was dragging down the amazing art.
September 7, 2012 2:08 pm Is it me or David Aja has become the fully blown heir-apparent of Mazzucchelli
September 7, 2012 2:03 pm Matteo Scalera continues to impress
September 7, 2012 2:01 pm that was definitely more "DIE" than "Funny" btw imho Josh's Bane impersonations have been more spot on than anything here...
June 9, 2012 10:16 am Two points Firstly I am surprised nobody mentioned Stuart Immonen. If Fear Itself was as much of a financial success as Marvel claims it to be it sure as hell wasn't the story or writing that made it shift units like it did. I know I stopped reading it halfway through but collected it all just to drool over the sheer gorgeousness of the art. Secondly the artists that DC has lined up for Before Watchmen, is as close as you can get to superstars in today's market. And DC is well of aware of this..
May 9, 2012 6:41 pm As much as I am enjoying this title I am getting a bit tired of the constant proclamations about how unique and singular a vision it represents. By standards of the American comics? yes. But many of the tropes being deployed here bear an uncanny resemble to Tsutomu Nihei's universe of Blame!Noise! and Biomega! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsutomu_Nihei http://8th-circuit.com/?q=content/ymbmo-blame Nihei is not that foreign and underground a commodity either. Not only is a Bulk of his work is available in English language, he even did a Wolverine mini-series SNIKT! This is by no means a detraction. I am thoroughly enjoying the run on Prophet and it is thoroughly refreshing, but lets also give credit where credit is due to those that trod this road before
