So yesterday I read comics, yeah for comics !
Spider-Man 2099 (2014) #12
So yeah, I left regularly reading comics some 10 years ago and then Peter David was sort of the underdog sales-wise that you could count on to have absolutely solid writing.
These days ? Meh. The issue is it's still the same Peter David, it's still relatively solid and you could certainly do worse but it very much feels like he is on auto-pilot, just writing good enough to earn a check and that's it.
You can sense that if only he would TRY, the book could be so much more.
I like it, though.
Thor (2014) #5-6
Not willing to enter some debate about gender in comic books. I would just say that the book would be a lot more enjoyable if it didn't revel in its polemism (is that a word ?) at every fucking opportunity.
I mean I'm ok to have a female Thor, really it's cool. Now if every character and his mother could stop being obsessed, angry, sad, happy, about that fact, it would be even cooler.
Pretty good book overall, I can see why Aaron is respected about his stint on Thor. I'm not blown away yet but that could change.
Thor Annual (2015) #1
It's an annual, so it's shit. Funny and nice looking story drawn by Rob Guillory.
Operation S.I.N. (2015) #1-3
What the fuck is this shit ? The penciller is not up to the task, Kathryn Immonen plot is uninteresting, dialogs are bland... we heard you liked comic book so here it is. Quality you say ? Uh...
Old Man Logan (2008) [first half]
I have no sympathy for Millar or McNiven. There are blunders in the storytelling at times, but man, I must admit it's quite an enjoyable trip.
Hey kids, Comics: Old Man Logan (2008)
