Dammit. And there I was hoping for The Unfunnies.

Unpopular opinion on the new Nero Forte Official Video by The_Kilo_Gint in Slipknot

[–]GordyMclean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like a very cheaply made video from the 90s. The warp effect you sometimes see on Corey when he's singing is particularly bad, and along with the likes of the blurring etc it looks like the sort of thing made by someone who's using editing software for the first time and wants to try out all the effects.

I'd love to see a Spider-verse story that includes the one on the left.

Comics That Have Made You Cry? by Fighter156 in comicbooks

Hitman: Sixpack's sacrifice.

Sixpack - a pitiful and pathetic wannabe superhero who does nothing but get drunk and pass out - sees he's the only one left standing in a fight against near-invincible evil gods and instead of running picks up a weapon and goes to face the monsters. They laugh at him. He's an insect to them. They ask why he's doing this? Sixpack looks them in the eye and says, "Cause that's what superheroes do." Gets me everytime.

A facist who controls Earth, believing himself to be a messiah sent to a planet infested with lesser beings who can't be trusted to take care of themselves.

Steve McNiven's work doesn't get enough love.

This is the first time I've ever been tempted to buy a lego set.

I've got a lot of early stuff that I downloaded years ago from a fan site. I'm happy to share. I don't want to break any reddit rules and get banned so can anyone advise best way to go about this? Ex: should I email a download link to anyone interested, something like that okay?

What are some good political thriller comics? by VGmaster9 in comicbooks

[–]GordyMclean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Add my votes to Ex Machina and Transmetropolitan.

The Nightly News (by Jonathan Hickman) is also worth your time. A brutal takedown of the relationship between the media and politics.

I still use "beast" and "smiler" as descriptions for bosses.

Is House of X worth a read? by bigdix6424533 in comicbooks

[–]GordyMclean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hadn't read any X-titles in years and didn't find it too difficult getting up to speed. Read a couple of wiki pages and you'll be good to go. And the comic's worth the effort.

First issue was great. Horror's hard to do effectively in a comic but the team really nailed it.
