"I'd say the show made it through the first year (TPB Vol. 1-2), roughly. Yorick and 355 had gotten to Dr. Mann's lab in Boston, and had set out for California. The last big scenes took place in Marrisville, Ohio (I guess: not sure if the…"
"I was interested in Y: The Last Man the TV series, but I don't have FX on Hulu so I haven't had the opportunity to watch it.
I've read Y: The Last Man the comics series from Vertigo, thanks to my friendly neighborhood…"
Y: The Last Man TV series
The whole first season of Y: The Last Man is available on Hulu:FX now, and since there has been no discussion I wondered if anyone else has been watching it. I was a big fan of the comic--I still own the whole thing, mainly in TPB form. But the first year I was still buying individual monthly issues, and was pleasantly surprised when I dug them out and remembered that I had the first issue signed by inker Jose Marzan Jr. (never had a shot at co-creators Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra,…See More
"It sounds like an interesting premise. I'm somewhat familiar with that area, but I have never heard of Proctor Valley Road. "Grant Morrison" sounds promising, but "predictable" and "YA cartoon territory" do not.…"
"Short Cuts 56
Ice Cream Man Vol. 6 – Just Desserts; The Stone King; Lost Dogs; and Outer Darkness Vol. 1 – Each Other’s Throats. Comics new and old, including a ComiXology Original."
"I have read both of them, and not alike at all. Not even a little bit. Remember that Moore famously insisted on calling Lost Girls "pornography." Friday is definitely not that."
"Last weekend I volunteered at the Giant-Size Charlotte Mini-Con (a two-day event midway in size between the full HeroesCon and the one-day Mini-Com they usually have in the Fall). There was a requirement to prove either vaccination or a…"
"Wow, great rundown! I count myself among those who didn't get the Helen Slater reference; don't think I've ever seen that movie. Otherwise, great ending, despite all the little weak spots you pointed out."
Deadly Class Volume 10: Save Your Generation
Deadly Class Volume 10: Save Your GenerationRick Remender, writer; Wes Craig, artist; Lee Loughridge, coloristImage Comics, 2021Back after a long hiatus, the narrative jumps around chronologically, as it has in recent volumes (the early ones all had a year on the cover, focusing on a single class year at Kings Dominion). The story begins in Phoenix, Arizona in 1991.…See More
Ascender Vol. 4: Star Seed
Ascender Vol. 4: Star SeedJeff Lemire & Dustin Nguyen, storytellersImage Comics, 2021Star Seed is the big conclusion not only to Ascender, but the whole Descender/Ascender saga (which began in 2015). Descender was set in a universe where robotics had been outlawed after an apocalyptic event caused by planet-sized robots called Harvesters. It centered around a young…See More
"Mr. Vertigo Reviews 93
Canopus; Destroy All Monsters – A Reckless Book; and Underground.
A bit more current than usual. Dave Chisholm sent me a pdf of Canopus, because I've reviewed his music-related comics for All About Jazz."
"Well, crap. It's been gone so long I didn't even think to look for it. Hopefully BBC America will have it available on demand."
"Just terrific! How was the cake?"
Outer Darkness Vol. 1: Each Other's Throats
Outer Darkness Vol. 1: Each Other's ThroatsJohn Layman, writer; Afu Chan, artistImage Comics-Skybound, 2019This is a strange tale set in an interstellar future, but one where science meets horror and magic. It is not exactly unique--G. Willow Wilson & Christian Ward's recent Dark Horse series Invisible Kingdom comes to mind--but this series employs gods and demons in…See More

Heroes Convention 2009
Posted on June 19, 2009 at 11:26pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
After a late start, spent almost seven hours at the convention. I attended one panel discussion: "The New Power Generation of Comics" with Brian Michael Bendis, Ivan Brandon, Ed Brubaker, Jonathan Hickman, and Matt Fraction. Matt Brady of Newsarama attempted to moderate, with limited success (at one point Fraction turned a question around and basically interviewed Brady instead of the other way around). These writers all know each other, and had a good time tossing the questions around,… Continue
