  1. :crying:  .... this just hurts.

    As a kiddo I loved the 60s series.  For so long he WAS Batman.  When the Keaton Batman movie came out I was still young enough to appreciate it on my own merit as a comic loving kid, but as I got older I understood more about why SOOOOOOOOOOOOO many people turned out for it the first couple of weeks.  It was the dads and grandpas taking their sons/grandsons to see the character they grew up with on TV.  That one single show shouldn't define him but IT IS the perfect encapsulation of what he's meant to pop culture and 3-4 generations of people.  

    Got to meet him twice at cons over the years and the man was simply phenomenal.  As down to Earth and over themselves at it comes.  He laughed at himself and genuinely enjoyed and appreciated his fans.  The second time I met him, we had a 3-4m convo and he was astounded at the fact someone as young as me (was in my early 20s) was as into the series as I was.  I stated that it was hard not to because he had the greatest Joker running him in circles.  He let out an honest to God chuckle and stated "kid, Cesar will always be the best and you're awesome for getting it" ... he shook my hand and winked as I walked off.  The man was just fantastic.

    New series has started and I think I might be done with it already

    pretty sure a glass shard cut his jugular ... and yeah the fall out of the copter on top of that ... it was the closest thing that's happened to the early deaths in the original series.  Came out of freaking nowhere and right after the build they gave him in the pit.

    Ugh, can't decide honestly ... I'll watch the next few episodes for sure but even more so than ^

    delivering a baby?  wtf ... and then still getting booted?   UGH SHIT COME ON

    I am! It took me a few issues to really get into it but now I love it. It's kind of refreshing to have a superhero comic as philosophical and text-heavy as Black Panther is, and when I pick up an issue I know I'm gonna be taking my time with it.

    Since I haven't posted in here in a while, I'd say the five ongoing comic books I'm enjoying the most right now, in no particular order, are Saga, Paper Girls, Archie, Astro City, and Black Panther. Honorable mentions include all the Marvel Star Wars stuff though I think that's taken a dip in quality lately, Shade the Changing Girl, Ms. Marvel, and Kill or Be Killed. Technically Southern Bastards is probably #5 but I only buy that in TPBs right now and for some reason that doesn't feel like it counts in my head.

    Zero interest in Secret Empire, or any major superhero comic crossovers. I don't know if any comics writer has ever tanked my esteem for them as badly in as short a time as Nick Spencer has; I loved Superior Foes of Spider-Man and his Ant-Man felt like a continuation of that, but good lord, dude.

    1 - Astro City always has been and continues to be one of the best books put out by anyone.

    2 - How in the blue perfect hell is the guy that's absolutely throwing up all over the place with CAP the same guy that gave us Superior Foes of SM ... I mean what the actual fuck how is that possible?

    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    My biggest issue with the vast majority of the changes are that they were ... "because" ... not for anything other than.  That's what I can't stand.  It's been said already, but be original, create new heroes or build on your character stockpile by either having legacies coming from the gold/silver age stock or have them taking up visages of to honor them.    

  5. Curtin is GARBAGE ... and it's infected the team.  When Piatti scored the first you could SEE Philly's body language saying "well shit, we ain't gonna win" ... UNREAL.  Fafa's one on one fail pretty much is the perfect summation of what's going on there.  i mean ... WOW.

     

    FCD is the only unbeaten left after taking care of SKC 1-0.  

    Also, welcome Atomic Ant .. the 2017 MLS season is glad to have you.
