Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Wandering Sensei: Moderator Man's discussion What Comic Books Have You Read Today?"Yes, I've read it. I wasn't impressed; I thought the writing was weak. I think I reviewed it here, and it's in the queue to run on my blog. Horse races, as always."
Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Wandering Sensei: Moderator Man's discussion What Comic Books Have You Read Today?"Some things I've read during the last week:

Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Alan M.'s discussion So, What Are You Reading These Days? (besides comics)"I recently read Charles Soule's first novel, The Oracle Year, which I really enjoyed. I recommend it.
Now I'm reading Stephen King's 11/22/63, which I've had on my Kindle for years. At about a third of the way in I'm…"
Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Alan M.'s discussion On the Chopping Block"You really should give the original series a try, Rob. I think it was the best of the Sandman spin-offs by far. I keep meaning to re-read it, especially after reading the recent series."
Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Wandering Sensei: Moderator Man's discussion What Comic Books Have You Read Today?"David López's Panel Syndicate eComic BLACKHAND IRONHEAD #5 is described as the "season finale," so hopefully there will be more. It's a satisfying conclusion to the first story arc, full of shocks and surprises, and it…"

Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod)'s discussion Re-reading Stray Bullets: Über Alles Edition"Wikia to the rescue again. She hasn't appeared yet (the first collection covers issues #1-8). And it turns out the earlier Kretchmeyer things weren't really appearances. SB #7 includes art in the back that was later used for Sunshine &…"
Jeff of Earth-J replied to Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod)'s discussion Re-reading Stray Bullets: Über Alles Edition""I don't remember much about her."
I'm gong to have to go back and check when she first appeared. (Maybe you haven't gotten to her yet...?) I don't want to give anything away."
Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod)'s discussion Re-reading Stray Bullets: Über Alles Edition"Never mind, answered my own question. The Stray Bullets Timeline Wikia actually has a search function! Apparently Kretchmeyer made a brief appearance in SB #7, and in Killers #7-8. So my memory is officially, uh, not great."
Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod)'s discussion Re-reading Stray Bullets: Über Alles Edition"Annie? I don't remember much about her. I think my Hoopla copy is still checked out, so I'll look. So I must be mis-remembering not seeing Kretchmeyer before. Do you remember where he showed up in the original series?"
Jeff of Earth-J replied to Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod)'s discussion Re-reading Stray Bullets: Über Alles Edition"Actually I was referring to Annie."
Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod)'s discussion Re-reading Stray Bullets: Über Alles Edition"That's Kretchmeyer, right? As I mentioned in my summary, I don't remember him from the original series, so I'm guessing his whole story plays out in this series. He's a pretty slippery character. I do have some trouble believing…"
Jeff of Earth-J replied to Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod)'s discussion Re-reading Stray Bullets: Über Alles Edition"So what did you think of the "new major character" I mentioned October of last year?"

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
