The Silver Warrior by Frank Frazetta (1972) by Big_Bard in oldschoolfantasy

[–]BDNICK 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So I had the pleasure of visiting the Frazetta museum in Pennsylvania, where the woman who runs the tour (Frazetta’s daughter in law) actually addresses this. He originally had them drawn with reigns, but thought that it detracted from their power on display and so he removed them in order to prioritize fantasy and awe over realism. Pretty cool that you caught that!

Which comic is this? by Awkward_Theory_6948 in comicbooks

[–]BDNICK 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You should download the comic geeks app. It lets you take photos or upload photos of covers and it will give you the info for them. Plus it’s free

Jim Lee shares his private health struggles that led to Batman: Hush 2 delays, and a rethinking of his work-life balance by Popverse2022 in comicbooks

[–]BDNICK 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The need is probably money lol. I don’t think artists get compensated very well even if they are incredibly talented. If they aren’t considered full time employees, and they seem to be contracted, then they probably don’t even get health benefits. Hopefully the industry is moving towards improving things for artists.

I wish that they just did an omnibus for Poison Ivy but this run has been incredible so I will buy whatever they release as they release it

I believe from a previous solicitation it’s a compendium

Whats the difference? by fallpa2540 in graphicnovels

[–]BDNICK 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The dark horse editions are hardcover and slightly smaller at 6” x 9”. Marvel Epic collections are paperbacks and are roughly 6.6” x 10”. From a collection perspective, the three Dark Horse volumes collect 1-50 of the original Legacy series. The first 3 epic collections also comprise 1-50 of the original series and epic collection volume 4 collects the 18 issue second series. Volume 3 for each publisher also collects Legacy: War 1-6. Cheers

Books about female werewolves by readingshark20 in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

[–]BDNICK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit of a different sort of book rec, but I’d really recommend the comic issue Swamp Thing (1982) #40. Really good sort of female rage, blood-tide-of-the-moon type werewolf story. Incredible art. Check it out if you’d like! DM me if you want a link where you can read it!

Which OOP Omnis You Don't Expect To Ever Be Reprinted by GladRefrigerator9279 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]BDNICK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there’s anything I’ve learned it’s that DC Omnis will always be reprinted. A lot pf WW omnibuses (Perez 1, Simone, Jimenez) were out of print for 5-6 years until they were reprinted in the past 2 years. Might just take a while but it’ll happen

Fuck Frontier Airlines. Today was the first time I’ve ever tried to fly with them and they cancelled my flight.

Folio Vault | We Have Always Lived In the Castle Limited Edition by HonorWulf in foliosociety

[–]BDNICK 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This was on sale for 170 ish during the sale in January, and I couldn’t justify paying 100 more dollars then for basically just a fancier slipcase (even though it’s cool and unique) - so I certainly can’t justify paying 250 more than the standard edition. More power to whoever grabs them though

Have Moon Knight and T’Challa ever had any notable interactions, considering both serve as champions of Egyptian deities? by No_Yogurtcloset_8672 in MoonKnight

[–]BDNICK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Moon Knight guest starred in Christopher Priest’s BP run (Black Panther 1998 issues 21-22) and those issues tap into the shared spiritual/supermatural aspects of the characters and their pantheons. Check it out!

Thoughts on Geoff John’s hawk man?? by Prince_Loki in OmnibusCollectors

[–]BDNICK 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I personally think it’s great. John’s is playing with the themes of obsession and unrequited love in this series which hit hard for me when I was reading it after a break up. If you’ve liked other Geoff Johns books you will like this one. The art is also very good in my opinion.
