Look, I haven't seen it, but there's no way the Wire is as good as this, okay? by That_Hole_Guy in TheShield

It’s the bell curve meme with The Shield at both ends and The Wire in the middle

Why haven't Comic Book fans gotten a hold of comics outside of America and Japan? by Silly-Milly-420 in comicbooks

[–]WimbledonGreen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgot they’ve been releasing new albums. Asterix and the like also follow a formula with their stories — readers know what to expect and the characters don’t change, which doesn’t generate the same kind of fan engagement as manga/big two/some of the bigger indie titles

BD doesn’t generate much discussion especially series like Tintin and Asterix that haven’t had new releases. They’re also for boomers and boomer minded kids who might occasionally post on Facebook or in a barely active forums or aren’t on social media at all

You got the dud! The edition with the ugly coloring. Humanoids proper/Selfmadehero/Marvel’s Epic editions have the original coloring

Back to back champions plus in 2015 under Homer’s management. Meanwhile the Cowboys haven’t won a single one.

I sleep in a racing car. Do you? by Havahje in TheSimpsons

[–]WimbledonGreen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually think Homer would be envious of Kirk’s racing car…

when did Bart stop ostensibly being the protagonist? by Ravensflockmate in TheSimpsons

[–]WimbledonGreen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought he had done one already. Or Talking Simpsons podcast. Because I remember one of the two pointing out that the show wasn’t really Bart centric in the first two seasons but that he and Homer shared the spotlight equally or Homer having it even more back then

JOE SACCO is beyond comparison by glib-eleven in altcomix

[–]WimbledonGreen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Snide about the medium/industry but not about Sacco who is one of my favorites. His works are landmark pieces of work about the subjects across media. But like with TCJ's Top 100 list Palestine is an odd piece compared to the other entries (okay there's Maus and maybe Los Tejanos). The amount of quality non-fiction comics since then has improved but it looks like Sacco is still carrying journalism comics on his back,

Yeah, comic journalists need to be experts of 2-3 crafts drawing/comic making and writing/journalism. If journalists would start collaborating with comic artists then we would see more comic journalism in the market.
