they pulled it off cause Disney now owns the rights to Captain America and all other Marvel super heros. (DIsney bought Marvel Comics for $4 billion.) put the story in Hot and Spicy.

The book has been great since Steve Rogers died - they are bringing him back too soon and with a less plausible explanation than they used for Jason Todd.

Hopefully they'll leave Bruce Wayne dead for another 2 years - the Dick Grayson Batman books have been really good so far.

Wait Bruce Wayne is dead? Man I really need to catch up. Last thing I read was planet hulk and World War Hulk.

I would not know. I stopped reading "Comics" over 40 years ago. except for "The Fab Furry Freak Brothers, and Elfquest

Sirgod · « **Reply #5 on:** September 03, 2009, 05:49:17 am »

LOL, man I haven't read Elf quest since the 80's.

I think I recall the other one on some Documentary I watched on Ovation and underground comics.

Anyone been watching Wolverine and the X-men? I've been really amazed at how complex it has gotten already. They haven't even finished the first season yet and they already have had Master Mold and the Sentinels, Wolverine vs The Hulk, The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Genosha, Mojo and Spiral, The Weapon X Project, The Mutant Registration Act, a cameo by Mr. Sinister and the future storyline with Bishop. By the end of the season they will have Angel turned into Archangel, The Phoenix Saga (at least a truncated version of it anyway) and they will begin The Age of Apocalypse storyline (with more of Mr. Sinister). The amazing thing is that they have managed to tie most of all that together into a cohesive storyline that is connected by events and characters that weren't happening/together in the comics.

Hey Soreyes, how does that saying go?... Dope will get you through times of no money better that money will get you through times of no dope?

It seems to work for the Freak Brothers

i caught 2 episodes of this and it's not bad at all - nothing compares to the DCAU (90s Batman Animated series through JLU) though.

Bruce Wayne died in Final Crisis (frucking horrible story) in a battle against Darkseid. Though there was a body which was buried and all that they've left a loophole for him to come back.

The current batman is the first Robin; Dick Grayson. The current Robin is Damien Wayne, the son of Bruce Wayne and Talia Al Ghul. So far the stories have been excellent, they've got good writers on the books.

Check out the episode Future X. You'll change your mind when you see Bishop and Domino in action. They repeat them to death so you can still catch the whole season.

Oh heck I forgot they had The Shadow King and Silver Samurai too.

Just a plug for a friend, but if anyone is still reading comics, get "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep". Went to high school with the artist.

On my reading front, I've just started going back to the comic shop after a decade hiatus. I've been reading some of the Ed Brubaker stuff. Criminal and Incognito. I've been afraid to even attempt jumping back into the Marvel train (except I have to pick up Captain Britain and MI13 because the Cap was one of my old faves from back in the day). Things have changed so much, it's rediculous, and I can't keep track of all these alternate universe things.

FPF-DieHard · « **Reply #15 on:** September 03, 2009, 01:00:54 pm »

Brubaker's Captain America run has been outstanding. The current Avengers books are good as well, mutants are all a bloody mess so i won't read their books at all. Best Marvel book is 'The Incredible Hercules."

Speaking of Batman, and thanks Diehard,

I know I've posted this before, but man I wish they would make it into a real movie.

Grayson is out to avenge Batmans death.

Steve (and the rest of the world) - buy or illegally download "Kingdom Come." it's by far the best "dark future" story ever told in the "Super Hero" genre.

Sirgod · « **Reply #18 on:** September 03, 2009, 05:27:53 pm »

ill do man. Might as well ask here also, There was once a DC story about Superman going off to the middle of the sun to meditate, Brood whatever he really wanted to do cause hell he's super man...

Anyway, what was the name of that story line? Was it Kingdom come?

The 1990s X-Men series was pretty good.
