Batman: Plutocrat

I'm going to guess this bit's been done better elsewhere, but I giggled a bit.

Oh sort of a convergence between "Batman babbling" and the creator-owned works debate.

I've been following Duss Nguyen's art for a few years. Man, ever since he's been regularly cashing those Batman cheques, the amount of effort and creativity he puts into his artwork has very noticeably declined. It's kind of depressing, really.

I'm sure DC could care less, so long as he keeps to a schedule.

Just keep in mind that no matter how low he goes, he'll never be as bad an artist as Scott McDaniel.

See what happens when you get rid of the Comics Code?  CRIME Does Not Pay to be collected.

Before I hit the list, I just want to say that the best book of last week was Power Man & Iron Fist, written by Fred Van Lente with art by Wellinton Alves, inks by Nelson Pereira, colors by Bruno Hang and letters by Joe Caramagna.  If the words "Written by Fred Van Lente" don't move you to buy the book then something is fundamentally broken in your person and I'm sorry.

Anyway, onto the show.

After two weeks of SNOW delays I'm back to copy pasting from other forums!

Motherfucker's still in his early forties?  I'd have figured another decade on him.

Anyway, yeah, Fell is awesome; go buy it.

MEANWHILE: Doesn't look like much this week to buy.  Which is okay, because there wasn't much LAST week, so I didn't actually go in, for the first time in I don't know how long.  And I need more bags and boards.  And some of those divider tabby things we were talking about.

Having gotten caught in a series of Wikipedia links last night while looking up Young Justice characters with whom I was unfamiliar, I am proposing a new rule for comic book writers: Every comic book writer must read the Wikipedia summary page for the characters involved and for story arcs and realize how fucking dumb and convoluted almost everything is.

Then all we'd have is Grant Morrison.

So Buge hasn't actually read any Grant Morrison?

Not that All-Star Superman wasn't entertaining but if that wasn't a clusterfuck of stuff tied together by the most tenuous of threads I don't know what is.

Nonsense.  The greatest Superman story is Hitman #34.

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

The new Silver Surfer miniseries is written by Greg Pak, of Planet Hulk and World War Hulk, and as you would expect, it is awesome.
