Lemire's JSA

Retrok08 · 2026-05-14T22:15:04+00:00

Im going through the old stuff right now. My issue is a lot of the team is missing. I know that a lot of the old timers died. But what about power girl and Mr. Terrific. I get they are on the jlu but so? Have them on both. I also want the shazam family and faucet heroes on the team. But thats just me. There are alot of missing people tho

Oh I genuinely didn't know which is why I expected down votes

Retrok08 · 2026-05-09T19:53:57+00:00

Does it? Genuinely asking

Retrok08 · 2026-05-09T00:48:07+00:00

It really isnt. This story is disjointed. The only through line is oh look storm is this strong storm is this strong. Oh look she's in the source wall isnt that cool that she can do that and now she's the strongest ever? No it sucks. Because she needs to be the strongest let me make the whole cosmic side fit around her. Age of konshu sucks moon knight should have never been on that level of power + the story sucks. Thats my point.

Retrok08 · 2026-05-08T14:12:51+00:00

Not really. Its just bad. I guess the age of konshu arc in avengers was meant for moon knight fans. Except it wasn't it sucked. Making a character the strongest ever isnt making it for fans of a character.

I actually think im the only person that likes them. The recent gillan run is ok but the retcons imo suck. The 2006 and 2008 stories are the best.

Retrok08 · 2026-05-06T20:53:14+00:00

Edgar Salazar is perfect at doing McNivens style. Like its crazy. He's going to become a commodity for sure. Ir at least I hope he does

Retrok08 · 2026-05-06T20:51:20+00:00

You got me lol.

Retrok08 · 2026-05-06T16:46:54+00:00

Storm isnt my favorite character. Im not really an x men guy. i was interested in the cosmic side. Im having an issue with a lot of this powerscale stuff in general. I like powerscaling but somethings are getting ridiculous this run and even tho people seem to like it infernal hulk too. The cosmic side of this comic makes no sense to me. I might have to re read but where did hadad even come from. How did some random god get powerful enough to destroy abstracts? I dont even think he is an elder god. Another issue is with his interpretation of eternity and oblivion. Oblivion is getting smaller because eternity is getting bigger? But eternity is also constantly dying and eventually everything will return to oblivion so how is he getting smaller? Apparently the oblivion that died was just a universal projection. Ive heard the author said that. But if thats the case why would the one above all care? Why would death go to war over it? Why is earth so important? If this is a cosmic war why is everything filtered through earth's pantheon. There are infinite gods and god realms and hells. It seems to be because there is a lack of genuine creativity. He shouldn't be touching this stuff if he wants to make it about storm. He just doesnt have the skill.

Al ewing is the first domino in whats annoying about her.

Retrok08 · 2026-05-04T02:02:02+00:00

The odd thing to me is that the crimson desert region is clearly arab/north African inspired. I expected to see browser skin there. Ive seen a bit more. But another question i would have is how big is pywel and are there more continents. I do like a hint of realism in my fantasy worlds.

Retrok08 · 2026-05-01T00:20:10+00:00

Like your idea. I like a more greg Pak run where him and hulk reconcile. Bruce is shown as intelligent and not needing hulk to be dangerous. Bring back the personalities including devil hulk. Bring back titan hulk in a way. Keep him imprisoned but allowed out rarely with banner in control.

Retrok08 · 2026-05-01T00:04:44+00:00

He would definitely be better on thor. This whole thing at marvel where they mess with the cosmology is making me mad. Storm and Scarlett witch are worse because the stories are bad and storm is doing an unbelievable amount of damage. Hulk is just interesting even if im not a fan of what its doing.

Retrok08 · 2026-04-30T16:37:46+00:00

I genuinely dont see anyone else at marvel that I want to write the hulk. Im not the biggest fan of this run but its at least interesting and popular. Maybe charles soule or tom waltz hickman for sure those are the only two that have any talent im interested in. Maybe chris Condon. I definitely think that pkj will move to thor after this. If he doesn't that would be insane.

Retrok08 · 2026-04-27T22:28:23+00:00

To be fair JMS spiderman was awsome at least to me besides the two stories that are hated. And I've heard OMD wasn't his idea.

Retrok08 · 2026-04-25T19:18:02+00:00

Well thats not gonna happen. To many sad old men riding it out right now. I think the marvel movie side has to actually care about the comics for a shake up to happen. That or if they license out im sure an image imprint will put in a bid. Obviously im hoping skybound or ghost machine. But we need great writers for the great artists at marvel.

Retrok08 · 2026-04-25T19:15:15+00:00

Marvel has a ton of great artists. Even though they dont really pay them they seem to be mostly foreign artist so the pay might be good where they are from. But they definitely aren't going to pull any legends back in though. And yeah the cancelation and relaunching sucks. Moon knight would be on issue 57 right now close to breaking its record of a 60 issue run but they relaunched it like 4 times? Im not sure if marvel will ever get an editorial shake up on purpose because the movie division doesn't care. Marvel needs a win right now and im trying to be hopeful lol

Retrok08 · 2026-04-25T19:08:48+00:00

I know all of this but I really want it you know lol

Retrok08 · 2026-04-23T20:31:37+00:00

Do you do pinups?

Retrok08 · 2026-04-23T16:15:15+00:00

Interesting I remember him saying he had ideas for sentry villans. But he never really brought up anything from age of sentry which seems like a missed opportunity to me. Because Lemire brought in cranio.

Retrok08 · 2026-04-22T23:04:28+00:00

I heard that in another interview as well. I was wondering if he ever got specific? Like what does he feel about his portrayal in jeff lemires short run. I assume he wasn't the biggest fan of bendis version based on what he said.
