I did, good issue, but pretty underwhelming compared to the last one, which was quite mind-blowing !

If there is one thing I'm proud of though, is that Steve Dillon, finally, after almost 30 years of a career.....

....has learned to draw women......AND IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME !

Bought this today.
Figured I should check out the source material since I dug the movie so much.
I like it. Alot.
Though I think though for this to work as a movie, you'd need to forget live action, and go with some insane animation.
Like... Peter Chung style. Or maybe even some augmented rotoscoping.
Something unique looking compared to all the animated stuff out now.
Something gritty and in your face. Hyper detailed on all the gore and shit.
The style of the animation itself should match the tone of the comic.
Do it right, and it'd be better and ballsier than anything you could do or get away with in live action.


Where did you get a working flux capacitor?

I disagree, Wanted would be great if it could be live-action. Animated wouldn't work unless it was more of an anthology film IMO.

:)
It'd also be easier to get David and Gillian to possibly voice their characters.
In my idea, it wouldn't entirely be a reboot, but more like a retelling of the same stories with a leaner emphasis on horror and sci-fi.
Leaner as in more focused.
I'm not sure if I would have it start from the exact same point where the show started. But instead recap how they met in the opening credits, and have the show start off with them already aquainted.

Not bad, but not particularly great either and I think it's a bit over-rated.

If that's Tony Harris on art, then the writing on that comic has to be absolutely SHIT for it to be "not bad".

Well, you could read it for yourself, it's pretty good.

I just finished Superman: Red Son. It was a cool idea, though I felt some of its ideas came off as forced. The ending left me... it was just odd. I really enjoyed it into retrospective, a very fun read.

Spoilers: I was a bit sad when Superman lost, I love Communism :cry:

Apparently, that ending was recommended by Morrison to Millar.

If you have read Morrison's Work, then there's really no surprise about it :lol:

It was certainly really bothering at first, but the more I think about it the neater it is. I actually haven't read much of Morrison beyond Arkham Asylum: A Serious Home on Serious Earth. What would you suggest?

Yeeeesssssss....a new Grant Morrison fan in the making :twisted: !

*Clears throat*

Anyways, I haven't read all I should from Grant Morrison, from what I know I can recommend:

-All-Star Superman, probably the best Superman mini-series you'll ever read in your life.

-Morrison's Batman run, which by now is a collection of Trades that follows in this order:

Batman & Son --> Batman: The Black Glove --> Batman R.I.P. --> Batman & Robin --> Batman: The Return Of Bruce Wayne --> Batman Incorporated.

And now, coming this year:

Batman: Leviathan, DO NOT TOUCH THIS ONE unless you've read all the trades I mentioned before, otherwise you'll be confused as fuck, Morrison's work on Batman was very cerebral and acumulative, every event sums up with each other and the entire story goes back and forth constantly, if you have the time for this endeavor, then read it in order.

You could also check out his other work which I haven't read yet, like his runs on both Animal Man and Doom Patrol, The Invisibles, Fantastic Four, to name a few.

There may or may not be a Grant Morrison Batman mega torrent floating around the internet, I'm not really at liberty to say.
