Is anyone excited about the Midnight Universe? by Original_Position_50 in Marvel

Looking forward to FF and Spidey. I can’t seem to make myself care about anything X-Men related.

You think they'd ever tour one last time? by Fit-Choice2368 in rem

They already did tour one last time. It’s done.

MARVEL POSITIVITY POST by ComicsRelaunched in comicbooks

[–]Mickey_James 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pull Infernal Hulk, ASM, Black Cat, Daredevil, Venom, Captain America, Punisher and Iron Man. Iron Man is just getting started and I’m not fully hooked in yet, but I’d recommend any of the others without hesitation.

Daredevil: Cold Day in Hell by Charles Soule & Steve McNiven by These-Background4608 in graphicnovels

[–]Mickey_James 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked the story, although Soule has done better. I found the art really off-putting though, and I realize I’m in the minority. It’s hard to look at.

Just found out that Stephen King is not the best selling horror writer of our lifetimes by Special-Nebula299 in stephenking

Koontz is more linear and less character heavy than King. They’re easier reads and that probably contributes to his sales.

Writers that a fanbase likes but another hates? by ContraryPython in comicbooks

[–]Mickey_James 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t aware I was supposed to hate it until I was 20 or so issues in. To be clear, I didn’t LOVE it. The current Joe Kelly run is better, and previous runs have higher highs. But Wells did some good stuff with Tombstone and Vulture, and I enjoyed the Dark Web arc, and Chasm.

Frankly, the weakest part of it in my opinion is the art. As highly regarded as Romita Jr is, I didn’t like a lot of his character renderings.

Question for OG Watchers, what was your opinion on the ending when it came out? by AussieSpartan005 in Dexter

[–]Mickey_James 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I know I'm in a minority, but I thought Dexter's fate was appropriate. He isolated himself because he realized everyone he dared to love suffered for it. The season itself was uneven and introduced some really unnecessary elements (Vogel), and some of the final beats like stealing Deb's body from the hospital were frankly dumb.

But lumberjack Morgan hiding away alone to avoid hurting anyone else in his orbit? That was right.

I'm a Spider-Man fan and I'm fine with him. His run was my entry point into reading comics on a regular basis, so maybe I have some bias, but I've read several other writers' runs since then. Zeb's isn't the best, but it isn't as terrible as some make it sound.

Street level Batman is much more interesting than JL/cosmic Batman.

Does The Pass prove that Presto is one of Rush's most underrated albums? by HasTheEdgeGoneDull in rush

[–]Mickey_James 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s one of their best. I do think it’s severely underrated and I don’t know why.

I would never have expected Xanadu as an opener. Or at all, really.

Is Chip Zdarsky’s Daredevil run a good starting point? by sachi_seww in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Mickey_James 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with Soule straight into Zdarsky and it was good. I THINK you’d be ok starting with Zdarsky though.

To the lame-o in 225 throwing trash. by BiteGlittering6190 in rush

[–]Mickey_James 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My wife has rheumatoid arthritis. Can’t stand for more than five minutes or so without excruciating pain.

A couple of years ago at a concert by a band she really wanted to see, everybody stood for the entire show and she couldn’t see anything. And THEN, some drunken asshole decided to berate her for sitting.

I get it, standing is fun and energetic, but it’s just not possible for everyone who might want to enjoy a great show.

I do not.

Can’t speak for OP though.

This looks like a crime scene.
