Well, it's been a long time since my last post. I suddenly got tired of the internet.
Here's scans from six wednesdays' worth of comics; everything I bought 6-13-07 through 6-18-07.
and once I'm caught up, no more of these mammoth posts, I promise.
Just the highlights first!
ALL-STAR SUPERMAN #8
Grant Morrison- writer/ Frank Quitely- penciller/ Jamie Grant- ink & color
Second half of the Bizarro storyline. You should be reading this.
FALLEN SON: the DEATH of CAPTAIN AMERICA #5
Jeph Loeb- writer/ John Cassaday- art/ Laura Martin- color
Cap's funeral issue. This sort of thing is never interesting in comics, so this issue was interlaced with absolutely gorgeous splash illustrations of some of the key events from Cap's history. wow.
*spoilers*
MADMAN ATOMIC COMICS #3
Michael Allred- writer & art/ Laura Allred- color
This issue is almost entirely made up of Frank's inner dialogue while he attempts to re-establish his identity. During which, every panel of the comic is drawn in the distinct style of one of well over a hundred different famous illustrators. Holy fuck.
HELLBOY: DARKNESS CALLS #3
Mike Mignola- writer/ Duncan Fegredo- art/ Dave Stewart- color
In my opinion, this is the greatest Hellboy story so far. I'm blown away.
NEXUS #99 (SPACE OPERA part 1)
Mike Baron- writer/ Steve Rude- penciller & ink/ Gary Martin- ink/ Bob Wiacek- ink/ Glenn Whitmore- color
Nexus returns after more than a decade, and picks up right where it left off. I have never read this title before but I've been fully aware of it's huge following and apparent awesomeness. I had no trouble jumping right in and it is really, really good.
the SPIRIT #8
Darwyn Cooke- writer & art/ J. Bone- art/ Dave Stewart- color
Definitely one of my favorite issues so far. the Spirit teams up with Agent Satin to disarm a bomb. Comic book gold ensues.
And now here's scans from the thirty other comics I bought since my...
