Yeah, that lady's face is pretty terrifying.
I started Sullivan's Sluggers today, the oversized hardcover from the kickstarter effort.
I'm getting the feeling that i've already read it and just can't remember, i know i downloaded the digital copy they gave me earlier...but did i read it.... Everything seems so familiar and purpleybasebally.

STOP. Please.
That is the worst book I own. No hyperbole, no bullshit. I've been thinking about bbq-ing it at a friend's place, but then I figured I'd let it sit on my shelf to remind me that there are actually gross, shitty, and harmful comics/creators out there that I should never support.
If only. Sadly, that is from a comic released in 2015.

It's hella cliche, hella racist, and hella fucking offensively dumb. This is easily one of the worst fucking books I've read.
Also, everything surrounding the "writer" is incredibly shitty (he's an abominable douche) and Stokoe barely seems to want to be associated with the project.

I like Silver Age art just fine, generally, though I do prefer modern color schemes.
What's worth remembering, though, is that most of what we remember from back then is the good stuff. The shitty art is mostly forgotten.

Yeah, I know. Just thought it was worth pointing out, especially in light of Tim's comparisons.
S'all good, man! I played the Fable Legends beta earlier, we all fall down sometimes.
Were they at least video games about comic books?
I assume this is your final post here.
at least it's not anime.

This better be your final goodbye before you join BuddyJoeHooker in exile
Well yeah, and in fifty years should comics somehow still exist, people will still be making comparisons. You can say that about literally anything though.
And the Brett Booth's of the world will still be held up as shitty art
If I recall, the writer kept all the funds to himself and didn't pay Stokoe.

What I was getting at is that it's sort of silly to say that Silver Age artists had clean lines, simple palettes, and a good grasp of anatomy while modern artists are etc etc, when there's ultimately just as much shit art everywhere when you look around, and these days there seems to be a broader range of styles, especially in terms of color.
Finished the third volume of Superior Foes. Short, but very sweet. Incredible from the first issue to the last. Ending was really satisfying as well, you could tell a lot of love and care went into this book. Reading a review, I saw this compared to Nextwave by Ellis, think I'm gonna order me a copy of that.

Classy.
Have you read Ant Man? It's written by Nick Spencer as well and it's great fun. If you enjoyed Superior Foes you're bound to like it.
Wow, what an arsehole.

Poor Sue Dibney has a case of the crazy eyes. And even Silver Age shenanigans can't make me like the Elongated Man.
That was so awesome when they used the ring on the show.

He also kept talking shit about Stokoe and took advantage of his backers. He has also gotten in fights with other artists he's worked with. He's a shit head
Nope, but I'm probably gonna get the first trade when it comes out (soon)
Did you like it? It looks beautiful.
Hey earlier this week I finished The Wonderful 101 which is a comic book in game form so yes. Also a great game.
i'm already gone
Not yet. Slippery slope.
I'm cancelled until the reboot.

Without going into any sort of depth (NDA), I enjoyed it.
I thought I did a good job saying that I was posting my opinion, not cold hard fact that all Silver Age art is great and all modern stuff is shit. Guess not, sorry about the mix up.
It really was. The show is so good, it blows my mind it's on the CW.
And oh look, regardless of the era or medium, Iris is the worst! Way to be culturally insensitive there Iris.

Also, The Flash show on CW is really fucking good. Barry confronting

I like silver age art. Sometimes even prefer it like Tim pointed out. My point earlier that I must have sucked at pointing out is most would look better with modern coloring techniques. Swamp Thing art team put in the hard work and made it every bit as dynamic as today's digital stuff. Bad coloring already makes dated 80s comics look really bad.
I've only read a few issues but I love McDonnell, Kesels, and Gaffords work in Suicide Squad. Rocking those purples which I fell in love with Zero Year for. It's a very modern take with the limited color pallet.

UK tho so 80% of the time I probably won't be on that other people are. Unless you're into weird stuff like late night gaming/comicbook sessions
anyone here play Marvel Heroes? been really, really addicted to it the last month or so.
might be the best Marvel related game since the old Spidey PS1 classics.
The Flash is excellent but i don't get the Iris hate
she's a solid actress and maybe the best looking person on television

Pretty sure Zombine and I handled our problems in the privacy of PMs. Think we have found common ground.

I'll add you next time I'm on. I kinda doubt I'll be playing anything anyone here does. Unless you guys also want to play JP fighters or import games since that's all I've really played online recently.
