Comic Book Readers

[Yautja117]

Alien/Predator/AVP comics.
The Halo Graphic novels
Gears of War comics
Manga: Naruto, Rosorio Vampire ect,
When it comes out, the Mass Effect comic.
Now, the top 3 comic companies have a different game in their thrall: Halo is Marvel, Gears of War is DC and Mass Effect is Dark Horse.

I've also read Batman: Arkham Asylum A Serious House On A Serious Earth (definately worth the read if you can find it).

How much did you end up paying for it?  I don't want to try and hunt it down and figure out that it is more than I want to pay.

I payed around £15.00 but it's gone down in price now on Amazon and Play.

I really didn't like Arkham Asylum.

The art really turned me off.

The art irritated me too because I couldn't understand what was going on in a lot of the panels, then I read the script in the back (I have the 15 year Anniversary Edition) and I understood what was going on.
I re-read it and I kinda like the art style now.

I wouldn't say that I didn't like it, but I wouldn't say its as good as it's cracked up to be. Everything seemed off, especially the characterizations. What can I say though, it's Grant "pass the hallucinogens" Morrison.

You read Gotham Central Huol?

[Huol]

Nope, heard plenty about it though.

Its just about a bunch of Gotham detectives right?

[Aeus]

Yeah it's supposed to be like CSI Gotham. Crime comics are my fav so I've always wanted to pick it up.

Just for you, PBA:



Figure you've likely already seen it, as its the cover to this month's issue, but in case you hadn't. The tagline on the finished cover is 'In Space No One Can Hear You Cuss'

Thats awesome! Is it out yet?

[Mr. Domino]

Yeah, it came out yesterday.

Merc with a mouth isn't that great...

You're better off hunting down his original run.

[Aeus]

Deadpool hasn't been great since Kelly's run finished (30 or so issues in).

[FearPeteySodes]

I follow writers/artists rather than characters nowadays.  If nothing else because following all the multiverse type of stuff makes my head hurt. For writers i really enjoy Garth Ennis, Warren Ellis,Brian Azzarello(sp?) and Mark Millar.  Walking Dead is a great one as is The Boys for ongoing stuff.

My absolute favorites are Ennis' Punisher MAX run, Preacher, Fables, Transmetropolitan and 100 Bullets.

Was he pencilling the latest volume?

[Aeus]

No clue. I'm talking about the series that finished back in 97' in case you're thinking of something more recent.

I just finished reading Powerless. It's a pretty good mini which deals with a "real world" (as in no super powers) take on well known Marvel characters - specifically Peter Parker, Logan, Matt Murdock and Frank Castle.

[Mr. Domino]

...isn't Frank Castle already powerless? Or have I just missed something...
