Green. Arrow. IS. Awesome. #17- and forward. Great covers, great interiors. Thank god Lemire took over. Now, I have a comic with an archer, and a consistent creative team that actually comes out on time.
Here's looking at you Hawkeye.

I thought the content would turn me off, but it didn't. Now the letter columns? I really don't need those in my comics.

Yes.
Thanks.

Yeah. I'm lucky the variant for East of West #1 wasn't mangled.

I'm just saying Frankenstein Alive is very late and could have been a lot more than it was.
It didn't matter to me that it was delayed. It was Bernie Wrightson. On Frankenstein. Again. I'm just glad I have it in my collection.

This book is $2.99 right?

I'll third that...Mind MGMT is amazing!
And today for me is Mind MGMT day...this came in the mail today and I have to say the scan doesn't do this justice...the colours in hand just pop right off the page.
and to make it even better, I just bought this beauty! I've been searching for a while to find the perfect one to add to my collection and thanks to some help from a fellow boardie this will be in the mail to me soon.
It's a great day!

Loving my original art, thank you sir.

Regarding Zero from Image...
AT: It’s no secret you have interest from producers and are now writing a pilot -script version of Zero. Will it be a straight translation of the first issue or a new story?
AK: Definitely a new story. Although there are a few similarities, I believe that an adaptation for another medium has to be its own thing, a creation that is made with that specific medium in mind. So that’s the rule I’m following, as I have no interest in writing the same thing twice.
AT: What are you finding to be the biggest differences in writing a screenplay and comic -script so far?
AK: I trained (and continue to train) extensively in both disciplines — and more — ever since I decided to be a writer. This means I come prepared. The main difference in regards to this specific project is this: the screenplay demands simplicity. And I delight in building a simple sentence. I love cutting words out. So it comes naturally.
My approach to writing comics scripts for Zero oscillates between that simplicity and a more baroque approach, depending on the specifics of the story and the artist I am working with. At the end of the day, it’s about what a screenplay and comic -script have in common: absolute clarity in telling precisely the story I want to tell.
AT: So how did you determine the setting and plot of the pilot -script? Did you have to consider the lower budgets TV shows have as opposed to movie budgets?
AK: Let’s put it this way: I am an idealist and a realist at the same time. The format of the show, the setting, all of this is considered from many different angles, economics included. I am completely happy with what I came up with.
AT: So what’s the basic format of the show? Are you thinking about a season-long story arc?
AK: I know what it is, but at this point I choose to stay quiet on the subject.
AT: Television can be very demanding with its main characters, especially anti-heroes. What is it about Edward Zero that you think might make him compelling, if not necessarily sympathetic, as a protagonist to an audience?
AK: Well, that’s pretty simple. Zero is the James Bond for this century.

I can think of at least two reasons for the Wonder Woman.
Grown men who cannot find dates and ...
Or a loveless marriage, or a mail order bride, or agoraphobia..or taking a break from Season 2 of House of Cards...or..or..

The problem with the Batman variant is that it's a terrible Howard Chaykin cover.
And I hate Howard Chaykin. Have for over thirty years.
Agreed, Chaykin's art is horrible.
I guess I'm not the only one. Whew.
Revival
in Modern Age Comic Books

This was the series based on a novel that may have played a part in the death of Revival at NBC. So, although I'm a genre fan and will watch..I'm also kind of peeved that Revival has not as yet crossed over.
