Cell Block D stuff was classic, and the last couple Return of the King/Lady Bullseye/Master Ezo stuff was a lot of fun. There's some stuff in between I remember enjoying a lot, the intermission issues that focused on the supporting cast, that one issue about the Kingpin Aja drew, Daredevil #100. Shit gets dark, but its good shit.

 

[Splatt]

I feel like people don't appreciate Shadowland as much as they should

Spoiler

and rightly so, it's shit.

 

[frye]

The setup Brubaker leaves for Diggle is brilliant, but lol Shadowland

It's such a shame that all that awful Shadowland shit interrupts the flow of Bendis --> Brubaker --> Waid

Whoever was asking about these runs...please just skip Diggle's crappy little run. It's horrible.

The setup Brubaker leaves for Diggle is brilliant, but lol Shadowland

Yep. He threw it away.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

I was pretty hyped after #500, then lol Shadowland and Billy Tan and they literally turned my nigga into a demon. After that, the complete 180 of Waid's run was the only thing that made sense. You can't get much grim and gritty than Matt Murdock, demon warlord of ninjas.

I feel kinda bad about Diggle, cuz I like that dude a lot of stuff like The Losers and Shang-Chi, but man was a piece of shit that DD run was that everybody immediately forgot about.

 

[Palette Swap]

Miller, Bendis, Brubaker, Waid

I'll second that. I'd even say all four runs are pretty essential, with Brubaker's run a tad lower than the other 3.
Still, the raw number of great issues the character has had over the years is pretty impressive.
Also, it was obvious but I feel obligated to mention all have great art.

That Brubaker run is a little too malicious to certain characs for my taste.

Having finished reading his Winter Soldier earlier today, I'm starting to think Brubaker is in fact a complete asshole to his characters.

Latour's part was great indeed but way too short lived. I guess a solo Winter Soldier title doesn't sell enough.

I've been reading The Bitter March and All New Invaders, they're okay but I really wish there was a current title that featured WS more prominently. In that regard, the previous Secret Avengers volume felt like a huge missed opportunity (these last 2 pages, add Fury Sr to the mix and that's a team I'd gladly follow!)

The setup Brubaker leaves for Diggle is brilliant, but lol Shadowland

Yeah, way to fuck up a decade long greatness streak. Waid's return to greatness after Diggle makes it even more obvious.

What's going on with Detective? Can I buy this weeks issue and jump on?

New creative team (The Former Flash Team); So yeah, seems like a jumping on point.

Diggle's Hellblazer run was soooooooooo good.

He did the same thing for Constantine that Waid did for Daredevil. Turned him into a happy-go-cocky bastard with zero sulking.

It's a shame Milligan reverted him back to Garth Ennis version...

oh god, that ramos art.

gross

 

[Toa TAK]

Why the elongated, head, Ramos?

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Somewhere, Dan Slott is laughing manically

 

[TetraxShards]

I've really enjoyed Superior, but I'm still looking forward to Peter's return.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

You mean returned Helena to her original incarnation?

Wayne being the Huntress again is perfectly fine and kinda preferred,

killing Bertinelli off-screen before ever becoming the Huntress and that entire scene with the ID is not.
That ID scene was like one big "F You" from DC.

 

[Toa TAK]

Let's petition Ramos, guys.

We'll even get Stegman to re-do all his art, even from Superior.

 

[TetraxShards]

Stegman is busy helping Paul Cornell ruin Wolverine.

[slightconfuse]

I loved how when. ADD writer left they left Matt in a crazy situation .

Bendis threw him in jail
Brubaker made him the leader of the hand

Then shadowlands happened,

 

[Splatt]

I'd even take Walt Flanagan's art over Ramos.

Why Marvel, why...

You shut your mouth about Walt Flanagan. Dude's career ain't comic art and I enjoyed his Batman art.

 

[Storm Chamber]

I assuming you are not counting the current classic Ann Nocenti run?

The April fools thing is over man

Comixolog has the entire Ultimate Spiderman catalog(Ultimae spiderman/ultimate comics spirderman + miniseries) available for 99 bucks. Should I bite? I've only read the first 3 TPB volume of ultimate comics spiderman, so I would be overlapping on 18 of 199 comics.

 

[cablenathan]

I like his art

I genuinely like Ramos' art too. I like that Spidey has features that make him look like a bug.


Your honour, ladies and gentlemen of the NeoGAF Comics thread jury, although I am a big Ramos fan, I have no defence for that MJ image above.

Is that walking dead cover image posted on Facebook an April's fools joke?

Yes.

Glad they haven't got that desperate for sales yet.

I'm sure he has to rush sometimes, whatevs

I like Ramos too, actually, especially on Spider-Man, but I'd never defend him because horse faces.

DO IT. It's got to be one of the best comic series out there right now. At least for the first 133 comic run.

I love Daredevil. I mean I LOVE the character. He's tied with the Punisher as my all time favorite. I'll excuse some of the worst DD comics, because of the character.

Shadowland was the worst Marvel event I've ever read. Pure crap.

HORSE FACES

HORSE FACES

Eh, whatever. Everyone is entitled to their wrong opinion. I'm just really interested to see what Slott will have in store story-wise for this #1 relaunch.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

I like Ramos, too. IDK, seems kinda like complaining about Frank Quitely or Jack Kirby faces in the face of(lol) all their other extraordinary artistic qualities.

[B-Dubs]

He's generally ok, but he does have moments where you ask yourself what he was thinking when he drew something.

 

[Owzers]

Who's still reading Avengers World? Issue #4 was alright but i'm losing interest in the book. The last two issues settled down from the fast paced jumping around between world crises, but in doing so they lost their adventurey feel and issue #4 in particular wasn't strong enough without it. Arbitrary 6/10.
