Any fans of Tom Strong here?

Just read the first 16 issues and haven't enjoyed a comic so thoroughly in years. Pure fun and the homages to comicdom are legion.

My favorite is the slime monster that gurgles Sqatront. (thumbs u

The parody covers are great as well as are the constant Capt Marvel asides.

Loved the run the first time around. Had a harder time re-reading through it but still great fun (thumbs u

there's a forum for modern comics that would be better suited for this thread. you're likely to find someone who hangs out there that knows all things tom strong.

SQATRONT!

The series was great - along with all ABC stuff. Promethea was a little deep for me. Love the Tom B Quick (I think - memory suxx) Town Called Puberty story.

I really liked the first four issues... have kind of been keeping my eyes open for the rest of the Moore run, but I've been too poor lately to actively seek it out. Definitely hope to pick it up and finish reading at some point tho!

i only read the first issue thought it was great is the rest of the series just as good?

I asked a simple question in a humble manner in the bronze forum, and haven't had a response in a week. I think you're trying to get rid of him, and me .

Absolutely love it.

 

Try Top 10 some time too. Fantastic book.

 

ABC was good times.

I ignore traffic cops.

Great series as Mr Moore developed what he'd done with Supreme and just had some fun with it. Make sure you pick up the Terra Obscura books as well.

THanks for the heads up. Tom Strong is the only ABC series I am familiar with.

Try Top Ten and the spin-offs (Smax, 49ers).

 

Promethea is really good for the first 20 or so issues but then it gets quite esoteric and is not easy reading in any shape at all - still worthwhile though.

 

The Tomorrow Stories issues are a good read as well, various characters like Jack B Quick and Cobweb (yummy!).

 

See if you can get the two Supreme trades by Moore as they are in a similar vein to Tom Strong.
