COMICS! |OT| January 2015. So many variants you'd swear it's 1995 instead.

Hickman's work for hire stuff for Marvel is good and all, but his creator owned stuff for Image takes it to a whole different level of awesome.
 
Avengers #40-

He's not coming.

Nightly News is probably his low point and it's still a fun book.

Fantastic Four is probably one of the best runs in comic history! Up there with Simonson's Thor.

I just started Test Patterns and yeah. Nightly News is incredibly built, visually, but a bit of a slog.

You can also see his dialogue tropes at their most transparent.

I have the nice HC edition of Nightly they put out a couple of years ago and wish they would release the rest of that collection as a huge Omnibus.

I totally forgot about Transhuman which is also pretty weak but I get what he's going for.

I have a funny story I'll share at some point about Test Patterns.

Every repurposed charac from Fiffe's Ultimates. So great.

If only he was actually drawing Ultimates, maybe that book wouldn't been so struggle

It's kind of hilariously absurd that the dude's big-two debut isn't with his strongest talent. I have a bunch of his work, and it looks fucking incredible, especially Zegas. Dude is imaginative and stylish as hell, and his coloring is fantastic.

heh, well new issues of Copra take long enough as it is. If he was drawing Ultimates as well, that shit would never come out

Yeap.

I wonder if Kot is going to snatch him up for a Zero issue--that'd be a perfect pairing.

How responsive is comixology's subscription system? I'm curious because Grayson #6 came out today and is available on comixology but my subscription still hasn't picked it up. Not sure if it is just better to buy the issues myself instead of using the subscription sytem.

Does comixology give a discount for subscriptions? Or is it just an auto payment system?

got Ian Betram down the pipeline in the meantime thooooo

Man, I usually save Zero as the last book I read the week it comes out in order to digest it better, but I'm going to have to pull a Pax Americana and read it first, last, and then the day after. I hope Bertram's popularity raises with this, and he gets more work. Also, I love that him and Fiffe, two really wild-ass and great artists, are from/currently in Brooklyn.
 
Star Wars #1 did not dissapoint at all! It might be one of the most immersive comics you read as every characters voice is just engrained in your head, except Messi. Can't wait for the next issue.

Hickman keeps pushing his dang Cat-Beast agenda which is WRONG and TERRIBLE and KIRBY MADE HIM APE-LIKE, SO I MEAN, YOU DO NOT KNOW BETTER THAN THE KING
