Well, I've got a couple, though I've not read them all yet... Hawkeye and Mockingbird #1 was pretty good; nice establishing of their situation, bringing in of a couple of arch-enemies... Though, thi sbook seems like it might have a special place for people familiar with mid-late 80s West Coast Aveng...

Yes, Firefly was damn excellent, right from the start. Personally, I don't even feel it had a "slump" - imho, "Safe" was its lowest point, and even that had some assets. I thought the comics were (more coming out - a one-shot this month, a Shephard's Tale graphic novel - this yea...

I looked at this in the store, thought maybe it didn’t seem too bad… until I flipped back a couple of pages to the splash spread, and saw the four words of doom: “Four million years ago…” AGH! One of the things I liked about IDW’s Transformers was that it freed us from that stupid “they’ve been figh...

Joe absconded with a package of squirming beetles worth crazy amounts of cheese-puffs. However, the Brujo shamelessly grabbed George by his massive incisors. Next they polymorphed into the platypus from Jaws 6. They devoured the beetles extremely slow, masticating them alive while humming Mussorgsky...

Well, Hound and Dr. Spengler have done a pretty good job of discussing some of the virtues of the book already; besides saying "I agree!" to much of what they typed, I can elaborate that I think the book really starts to change as it gets into the teens, as Hama starts developing continuin...

Yeah, that's a pretty damned good question. There is the whole similarity with Shockwave sending the Predacons, and Megatron taking the space bridge back to Cybertron; plus Optimus Prime apparently "blown up" and the Autobots holding a funeral for him. Seems like it'd be an uncanny coincid...

Well, I significantly disagree with Mr. DrSpengler on a few of his points above, though he does give a good overview of what's out there. The point which actually made me go "OMFG" was "The guy couldn't write dialogue for shit" - unless he meant that Claremont's dialogue wasn't a...

Hey, it got Cliffy to say something positive about an IDW comic (!! jawdropping!) - qed it must be something. I had a couple of minor niggles - I think Roche's artwork needs a better inker than he got this issue. And, while I've been as big a Josh Burcham fan as anyone, some of his colors are striki...

Hee hee, it's pretty funny to see just how far Marvel will go in trying to squeeze things into the "Marvel Super Heroes" line. Considering that the Hellfire Club was once reduced to being "the Inner Circle of the Circle Club" on an X-Men cartoon, this seems kind of envelope-pushy...
