Only Mune could change my comic thread to this heh

Femto have you read Deadpool?

Post by **Femto** » Thu Jun 22, 2006 12:24 am

Not the most recent one, but I'm really wanting too.

I read the Gail Simone run from a few years ago.

Really funny stuff.

Are the old X Men comics and Spiderman comics really worth reading? Recently I've been reading ultimate X Men and I can say it's pretty awesome, the same with the new batman series HUSH. Even though I've never read Batman before I can see Jim Lee does a great job at drawing Batman.

Hush is good but it isnt new its from 2002.

If you like Batman and wanna get into him with more stories.

Here are some good miniseries.

Batman: Year One and Batman The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller.

Batman: Long Halloween and Batman: Dark Victory by Loeb who did write Hush. His partner Sale is one of the best batman artist.

There are so many great Batman stories out there but those are the best.

I just read Flash. Guess we know who the new Flash is, although I thought it was a bit obvious. I'm a big Flash fan, so yeah, I'll be following this series.

I couldnt care less about Flash but i wonder three things.

Who was the Flash that died in original crisis? Who was the one that dissapeared in IC and who is the new one?

Post by **Eldo** » Fri Jun 23, 2006 2:15 pm

Wally West was the previous Flash that disappeared in Infinite Crisis, and the one that 'died' was Barry Allen, Bart Allen's grandfather and Wally West's uncle. Barry didn't die, technically, he just dissipated into the speed force and ended up in another dimension or something, which is why he was able to grab ahold of Superboy Prime when Wally and Bart were trying to lose him into the Speed Force. The new Flash is Bart Allen, since he's pretty cool from Teen Titans and as Impulse. The art in the latest issue of Flash isn't really that great, but it's a good read anyway.

So you are telling me Barry Allen didnt die way back? I thought it was good to see one of the good guys die but of course they didnt dare to kill one of the good guys that is somewhat big.....

So Barry lives in another dimension, how lame i thought for a sec to give Flash a chance but not anymore.

the latest gargoyles comic is out!
i hope i am not the only one looking forward to it.

Post by **Libaax** » Mon Jun 26, 2006 2:47 pm

What the hell are they? A marvel comic or what?

Man i miss Joe Kelley cause the other writers after have ruined Deadpools awesome humor.

Palmiotti was good but the others like Priest sucks.

its originally a cartoon series by disney in the 90s. but it was dark(considering it was a disney cartoon) and the story was very well written.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gargoyles_%28TV_series%29

this new comic(i dunno published by which company) continues from the cartoon series and the writer is the creator and writer of the original series.

Post by **Libaax** » Mon Jun 26, 2006 5:11 pm

Aha.

So you like the cartoon i take it.

Have you read Gotham Central? A very cool crime series by Brubaker/Rucka and Lark.

I have become addicted to it. I heard it was canceled though but i dont understand how after having read 28 issues.

Post by **Quest** » Mon Jun 26, 2006 5:45 pm

yeah i loved the series when i was young. i gathered from the "non-japanese animation" thread that others in this forum also liked it 10 years ago.
=)

i dont usually read DC comics or follow their stories.
but i can tell that you like detective stories, libaax.
=P

Post by **Libaax** » Tue Jun 27, 2006 12:03 am

Gotham Central is my first real crime series that is about cops, no special agents or wierd tales kind of crime like Fell.

Its about the cops in that work in the shadow of the bat very cool series.

Have you read DD? Lark's art is the best. Brubaker is very good at crime.

I dont like DC iether much outside Batman family,comics,Teen Titans, a litte superman(reading my first superman monthly).

Post by **Quest** » Tue Jun 27, 2006 1:19 am

i have read the current prison arc in DD. i have the whole volume 2 in my com but have yet to get around to read them.

i just read ultimates #11. as usual its culmunating nicely into a dramatic finale.

I have cought up to a little and read Gail Simone's run in the end of the ongoing and i am now on Agent X series.

She made Deadpool a little fun again.

My fav run is by far Gene Kelly who's run was the funniest i have read in comics. Palmiotti run was good cause it was very serious and the sidekick issues was alot of fun.

I really hope Cable and Deadpool makes Deadpool as fun as in Joe Kelly's days.
