Shorty Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 The kiss was certainly the most standout part, but everything looked very bold, the lines very thick and the blemishes on Mark's face a bit too... scratchy. This issue was out really fast wasn't it? Compared to Invincible's usual standard I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This issue was out really fast wasn't it? Compared to Invincible's usual standard I mean. I think it might have been just 3 weeks. Or 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmac Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 nah it was the usual 4 weeks between the issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorty Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 The usual 4 weeks? At one point Invincible was coming out every couple of months if you were lucky.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan_Dare Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 The usual 4 weeks? At one point Invincible was coming out every couple of months if you were lucky.... to be fair, Conquest has possibly been the best looking arc yet. Frankly, Ottley, Crabtree and FCO must be bending space/ time to produce art this good on such a tight schedule. It's phenomenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Does anyone know any good sites that do TPB reviews? I always seem to find single issue review sites and the occassional trade mixed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmac Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 another good week for me Deadpool, Batman & Robin, Green Lantern, Dark Avengers were all excellent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Dare Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Agreed. Really good week. check it out: EPIC SPOILER GRADE map of The walking Dead It shows all the real world locations of all the major events of the series and the route taken by Team Grimes. I had no idea Kirkman et al had actually planted their protagonists in real locations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happenstance Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Been reading a lot of Batman issues lately after Arkham Asylum has got me back in the mood for them, enjoying it a lot so far, especially the stuff I missed with the Red Hood. Also got 2 trades on the way. The Killing Joke and Year One, although im not looking forward to Year One as all older style art is crap, shouldnt even be called art really.

ReZourceman Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Yeah I think Judd Winnick does a great job on Batman, liked the Red Hood stuff a lot. I've been reading Brubakers Daredevil, and it is so fucking good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Ive never been able to get into Daredevil, tried a few times but I dont like the character at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I would recommend dabbling in Brubakers run. Its from about 85-118/500 ish. Im upto 110 ish so far. The over arching theme is brilliant, I'm interested to see how it ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I just finished reading Final Crisis. Thats got to be one of the most confusing and poorly written/planned "events" I have ever read. I understood the basic story of what was going on but after every issue it was like we had missed one. Now im sure that there were tie ins as with most events but they just seemed to leave out loads of really important information from the main title. Tie ins should always be a choice, not a mandatory read. There are bits with Superman where he just disapears for 3 or more issues, Batman just appears from nowhere and no explanation, all the stuff at the end aswell with some new badguy who I never saw mentioned once until the last issue. Now I really enjoyed Infinite Crisis so I know DC can do good events and Blackest Night is going pretty well so far but Final Crisis was just terrible IMO.

That because Batman was going to die in Batman RIP but had to be changed for Final Crisis storyline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Still doesnt make sense with what happened: One issue he has been captured then a couple of issues later he walks out from the shadows and shoots Darkseid with no explanation.
