Wow, that was a bucket of stupid poured all over a pile of pig manure wasn’t it?
I mean. Making Banner and She-hulk into inbred hillbillies… what’s Millar’s thing with inbred hillbillies anyway? (Remember the killer pony inbred hillbilly from Authority? …it’s basically the same thing here, except easily killed by Wolverine, and dozens of them).
I [...]

re: Dark X-Men : The Beginning 3:
Once upon a time, a great creative team made Jean Grey interesting as the Phoenix, then killed her, ending that arc wonderfully. Then Marvel thought it would be fun to do again, and again, and again. Each time it is less interesting, and more likely to make me not [...]

Hulk 600 was indeed, horrible. Mind-blowingly so. Jeph Loeb may be the Greg Land of writing. Harsh, I know. It’s not a completely accurate comparison, as he doesn’t exactly “trace” his plots – I suspect he uses the Burroughs cut-up technique, albeit unintentionally and in a complete art-fail. I suspect he has a pile of [...]

OK.
I’m not usually one to get all fanboyish about this superhero vs. that one, but this issue was really, really stupid.
Wait, I meant typical Loeb. Sorry. Same thing. (Since when does magic give a fuck about gravity?????)
We’re playing an overly exaggerated version of “this guy is so badass he could beat up Superman …so how [...]

Final Crisis 2 – I’m sure there’s a reason one of the evil gods is the spitting image of Al Sharpton. I like the writing in what Morrison is doing here, but much of the rest of the DC world feels “off”. I think maybe he’s not meant to write mainstream books…everything he does has [...]

New Exiles 05
Don’t be tricked by the Alan Davis cover!
Oh my god! The pencils…stabbing my eyes out…alternating between anime knock off and horrible Davis knock off. I’m sorry Roberto Castro, but if you can’t even stick to one style to knock-off, please don’t try. You’re going to give me an ugliness seizure. [...]

Uncanny X-Men 494
And don’t forget “Baaaaad Bishop, no donut!”
We find out why one of the alternate futures is important (but not the other, still nothing from it yet? I wonder if it’s Cable’s future? That’s my guess anyway).
Lots of talking, and more whining about Caliban again, who really should have known better. [...]
