I'll probably get lambasted for this, but I think it is time for me to move on from this book. I want to like it, and at times I have. I think what annoys me is the way Hickman tells a story and it annoyed me on his FF run. The transition from flashback to current time is confusing. It doesn't make sense until he finishes the issue. Even then sometimes things are left in confusion. It also feels like he is constantly world building.

 

I'm in for a few more issues, but just a few. The futuristic western feel still has me intrigued, but it isn't going to last much longer.

 

No need to lambaste anyone for being confused.

 

Although it just makes those of us who understand it feel smarter :jokealert:

Multiple readings definately help clarify whats going on. The story is purposefully given to us in bits and pieces. I just went back through and read the series through a fourth or fifth time, and was picking up details and clues in issue #1 about death defecting from the horsemen and not being ressurected with the others, things I just glanced over the first time, but once you've put together some other clues, make perfect sense.

Nice!

 

Those are the only four I know about (not including the Comixology mini-print). The Death one with the certificate above it (not from Nick), was done for SDCC this past summer. I'm not sure Nick will be making any more of those. It's more or less been replaced by the one to its right.

 

To answer an earlier question, the prints measure 11X17.

 

Also, I am able to get these prints directly from Nick because I'm his art rep. I'm also repping Nick Pitarra, Riley Rossmo, Chris Mooneyham, and Garry Brown. As well as some others I hope to announce soon.

 

ok, the important question is what are you going to call your OA sales group?

 

Eastern Manhattan Ghosts of Massive Bedlam is my suggestion

 

Great stable of talent to start with Felix! congrats

Thanks Pete! Looking forward to getting some more cool stuff out to fans in 2014.

Yep, that's the one I'd like as well. Hopefully you can enough for all of us hungry boardies!

 

BTW, that's one awesome crew you got there! Can't wait to see what other goodies you got in the future. (Five Ghosts :wishluck:)

Also, I have two raw sketched (Crow and Wolf) that I'll probably scan and post later today, both purchased off ebay. I have to go meet with my artist friend to discuss some comic projects I am going to write, very excited about this!!!!

 

I agree, I still really like that sketch, I am a huge fan of The Man With No Name Trilogy and the likeness/nod to Clint Eastwood is awesome

I hope to have one of each character for my collection hope they all comeback 9.8 lol sent them snail service.

 

 

Good looking group. I think these are a little undervalued right now. I don't think there is anything like them that have enough age to decide what they will do in the future.
