It's pretty recent. Emma Frost figured out that his lack of control over his optic blasts isn't due to brain damage but a self-imposed mental block due to trauma he suffered when he lost his family and developed his powers.
Secret Invasion has been really good. I feel like if Bendis had written Civil War it wouldn't have petered out and ended up so shitty. That being said, Millar did a decent job. The delays were harsh, but I think that was mostly because of Steve McNiven's workload and perfectionism.
Seconded...
I would disagree about Marvel. It seems relatively easy to get into if you just know a few basic facts. I can't even begin to figure out what the status of the DCU as a whole is - and even if I did, they'd change everything in six months anyway.
RonPerlman is right - the Ultimate universe is...
Yeah what the fuck, how could anyone ever think the Hulk was a DC comic?
DC is so bogged down in ridiculous continuity and constant reboots that I simply don't care about any of their major events. I read Batman, Detective Comics, and various other character based limited series and one shots...
The Shield is awesome. Vic Mackey is one of the best characters in television history. I haven't seen a trailer for Sons of Anarchy but I've heard it looks rad.
I caught the first few episodes of Damages and really enjoyed it but my schedule is so hectic that I have to catch up with most...
Looks pretty cool, but I had no idea it was in first person. Reading about it made me think it would be better suited to third, but after seeing those videos I'll probably pick it up.
100 Bullets is really, really good.
If you like that, I highly recommend Ed Brubaker's Criminal (can't remember if I mentioned this book earlier in the thread). Best book on the shelves right now.
I can't praise Whedon's run on Astonishing nearly enough. It was absolutely perfect. Kittie's eventual fate made my eyes tear up. I know that no one dies in comics, but fuck, that was heartbreaking.
Oh, and fuck anyone who says Cyclops isn't a badass:
Warren Ellis just took...
I dig Alexandre Aja's work. Haute Tension was really well made and I love, love, love his remake of The Hills Have Eyes.
Kiefer Sutherland is also the fucking man. So yeah, I'll probably check this out eventually. Matinee probably.
Yeah! I love that segment.
I was re-reading some of it the other night and another scene that really stands out is when Jesse tells his mother what he did in Angelville.
If I can find scans of the panels I'll post it, typing the text out doesn't do it any justice at all. Steve Dillon, who...
