The Comics Thread !!!

I am interested in 200AD. Gonna have to look into that.

I think it might be out of print but look out for this 2000AD/DC Judge Dredd/Batman crossover. Beautiful artwork by Simon Bisley again...

Never been much of a comics guy, but I did pick up Watchmen at the book store today. Seems like I've been meaning to get it for years, just never got around to it. Its one of three books named by writers/producers of Lost as an influence on the show. So my Lost obession lit a fire under my ass to get this and read it! I'll let you all what I think when I'm done.

One of my fav comic's of all time!

Hmmmm, so back in the day I got started with The Amazing Spider-Man w/ the Todd McFarlane art and then Uncanny X-Men towards the end of Silvestri's run and beginning of Jim Lee's. Did buy a couple of Batman issues but never really got into DC.

Artists I liked back then: Jim Lee, Marc Silvestri, Todd McFarlane, Whilce Portacio, Travis Charest, Michael Turner, Jason Scott Campbell, Joe Madureira, John Romita Jr.

Been collecting sporadically until about 2 yrs ago and have been following Uncanny X-Men and Amazing Spider-Man as a staple. Then I picked up The Immortal Iron Fist, Daredevil, Iron Man: Director of SHIELD, Capitan America and The New Avengers. Thanks to Marvel's storyline of Civil War, they got me back hook-line-sinker!

Artists I like now: Leinil Francis Yu, Chris Bachalo, David Aja,Steve Epting, Michael Lark, Carlo Pagulayan

Also, this is on of the best stories ever printed. If you have never read the original Crow, do yourself a favor and get it. GET IT. The movie is really nothing like this and I love the movie.

I did some graphics work for James O'Barr back in the day, James sent me a whole bunch of goodies and a note and everything just as icing on the cake. The guy is very cool. I've got a print of his framed in my bedroom.

Lookin interesting! Rorschach is lookin like a total BAMF. Would have loved to see a pic of Dr. Manhattan. Not so sure about Billy Crudup playing him either, whenever I see him all I ever think is "I'm a golden god!"

Finally started Watchmen yesterday.  I'm only a few chapters deep, but already in awe.

Cut my teeth on classic Stan Lee and Jacky Kirby creations.  They will always be kings in my mind.  I miss my shopping bags full of their art that I mistakenly sold off years ago :(.

[bearass]
