Comment on Top 10 Women in Comics last Decade by Erica McGillivray

Queen & Country is about British spies. Think if Bond operated in the real world. There’s definitely military aspects to it, but more spies than military.

Really good article. I totally agree about Frau Totenkinder and Jessica Jones. I have only read the first two trades of Power, I like Deana but I havrn’t seen enough of her to make my list. I’m inclined to make my own list now.

I was just at Amazon; as my daughter & I just finished book #2. We tried Barnes & Noble first with no success. The ones at Amazon are $48.09!
You’d think with all the buzz on all sorts of sites, there would at least be a US run of #3.

Comment on How many comics does it take to get to the center of the internet? by Martin

Martin — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 15:10:07 +0000

Hmmm... yet another reason to lust after an apple tablet. I've been talking about the possibility of such a device for over a year now, and it's still exciting to me. I think the original article that gizmodo summarizes is interesting in that it basically ignores the existing comic book distribution channels for the iPhone, assuming a new player (this "longbox" company) would be brought in by Apple, presumably to perform some kind of content middle-man role. And while it might be cool to buy comic books directly from iTunes, rather than having to download a 3rd party app, that would probably run the existing players completely out of the market. At present, I think there are dozens of ways to buy comics for your iPhone (which of course I'm assuming would also be available on any new tablet device, because frankly, if the "apps" aren't there, it seems unlikely to me that the market will be). Probably the most popular one is called Panel Fly, (but honestly I have no idea which of these is most popular, and I fully admit I could even be missing the most popular ones), but there is also ClickWheel (whose name, at least, has been around since the original iPod), and Comic Zeal. Incidentally, here is an article over at Newsarama from back in February talking about this same possibility.

Comment on Wonder Woman Art Auction for a Good Cause by Martin

Martin — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 14:28:01 +0000

I think you had the date wrong on this. Looks like the event was on the 25th, (the day you posted this). It looks like there was an auction, but bidding closed on the 24th. (The only way to bid from offsite was via email anyway, and you had to know what you wanted, without seeing pictures of it.)

Cool event, but that’s an awful website.

Comment on Bollywood movie from 1988 features Superman and Spiderwoman dancing and fighting crime by Susie

I am curious to know what the plot is. Why are Superman and Spiderwoman dancing? I kind of expect better choreography from Bollywood.

Comment on Are Motion Comics the future of Comic Books? by Susie

Susie — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 20:41:10 +0000

I dont think it works very well for comics that were created the traditional way and then converted. It might be interesting to see an original comic, created for the medium.

I agree, Mike. This might have been an impressive invention before cartoons, but it’s hard to see how this could be an improvement over printed comics or tv.

Glad to meet you Michael!
Gaylaxicon was a lot of fun, and I hope the fans had as much fun as I did.

Gotta spell-check my last name though!

Just came upon your review — thanks for giving the books a chance. I’m glad you enjoyed them! It’s true, volume 4 won’t be out for a while, but it’s definitely not 2+ years between volumes — 14 months, and 19 months between previous volumes, and the final one shouldn’t be as long. Sometime in mid 2010. I’ll be sure to list the date on gobblin.net once it’s nailed down.

Comment on Next Book Club by Melvin at Mouchois

Melvin at Mouchois — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 08:35:11 +0000

Marvel and the Wizard of Oz? OMG it’s like my dream come true!!!

PS: Melvin is up to 4 pounds now. He’s getting a bit bigger, but the vet is pretty sure that he’s done growing (minus the fact that he’s getting fatter by the day). Thankfully we feel that the dwarfism may not have been why he is so small rather than severe malnutrition at a young age.

Very cool review. I had no idea these existed. Like Florence, I think I’ll wait for the final installment, but now I’m definitely intrigued! I wonder if there are Dark Crystal comics… OMG, there are! There are two of them, even. An adaptation of the movie (sounds like it was even reprinted in TPB in 2007) and a prequel called Legends of the Dark Crystal. Crazy.

Thanks for the review! I want to read more, after starting the first volume at your house, but now I want to wait for the final volume to come out.
