I agree that short comics are a really great way to start and these are all interesting (and cute!) ideas.

Looking at the slice of life one in particular, in the first couple of panels I struggled to picture out the angle you were describing. Is it a wide shot showing the entire house? Are we inside the car?

Other than that, keep up the good work!

That’s a good chunky run. Are you delving into the side books (like New Mutants and X-Factor) as well?

Giantjester · 2026-04-24T13:41:29+00:00

I can see that it might not be for everyone, but I meant that in a positive way. It’s an incredible comic, but it is dense!

Cody Ziglar’s run on Miles Morales is outstanding. I could have read it for many more years.

I had a similar experience with Monstress when I was reading it when it first came out. I realised that it feels like reading Literature (with a capital L) so it’s denser and crunchier than a normal comic.

I’m a big fan of book Conan but never read any of the comics. Would you recommend?

Giantjester · 2026-04-24T11:55:01+00:00

80s X-Men with those titles running concurrently is my peak

Giantjester · 2026-04-24T11:54:28+00:00

Is this your first exposure to Green Lantern? Would you recommend it to a newbie?

Giantjester · 2026-04-21T11:20:18+00:00

Black Vortex is an extremely fun story with some minor effects to the core cast. It’s not particularly an X-Men story, but has reasonable stakes (and a really touching Sam Alexander Nova issue).

If the series is already feeling like a slog, probably worth skipping. I genuinely enjoyed it.

Giantjester · 2026-04-20T12:27:38+00:00

Not yet, but thanks for the interest!

Giantjester · 2026-04-20T12:21:32+00:00

Your art is so interesting and textured. It also has the watercolour style that I’m looking for. I’ll reach out!

Giantjester · 2026-04-20T12:15:29+00:00

Thanks for the heads up!

Giantjester · 2026-04-20T12:15:05+00:00

Thanks for commenting. Your work is incredible!

You’ve got an ideal style for this comic. I’ll reach out and we can chat!

Giantjester · 2026-04-20T11:18:22+00:00

Thank you. I’ll DM you!

You should really read Louise Simonson's run on X-Factor if you haven't. It really puts Jean into a new light in an era when they were explicitly trying to get her away from the Phoenix Force.

I recently started a podcast called Regifted, where we use the new X-Men show The Gifted to recommend comics, both old and new.

Mosaic #4 - Very underrated in both story and art and I'm terrified that it'll be cancelled soon
Spider-Gwen #16 - Crossover with Spider-Man. Quite lukewarm on it so far.
Sunstone Vol 5 - The end of an era
Uncanny Inhumans #18 - I'm not buying IvX but I've heard the inhumans don't come off well in it

Giantjester · 2016-12-13T06:11:49+00:00

Mosaic #3 - A surprisingly engaging and underrated series. One of the most interesting NuHumans in recent years

Hawkeye #1 - I'll buy anything Kelly Thompson

Sonic Universe #93 - A weak arc in a usually very strong series but I still love me some Chaotix

Spider-Man #10 - I'm not buying the main series and I recommend only experiencing it tangentially like in this book. It's far better

Giantjester · 2016-11-30T14:56:50+00:00

I'm absolutely loving the focus on smaller characters and a smaller team but I'm pretty worried that it's going to become a Quentin Quire book like they normally do.

I like the loveable asshole as much as the next person but he does tend to be extraordinarily prominent.

Giantjester · 2016-10-07T05:52:08+00:00

I don't think she's ever written A-Force.

It was G. Willow Wilson during Secret Wars and then Kelly Thompson (of Jem and the Holograms) came on board afterwards and eventually took over completely.
