"I recently watched both seasons of the series Lenny James created for the British TV company Sky Atlantic (maybe this should also go in the Fear The Walking Dead thread): Save Me and Save Me Too. He stars in it and wrote most of the episodes. Very…"

"Man, your rants are far more entertaining than the actual show, Cap! Glad I watched it for context, though."
Six Days: The Incredible Story of D-Day's Lost Chapter
Six Days: The Incredible Story of D-Day's Lost ChapterRobert Venditti & Kevin Maurer, writers; Andrea Mutti, artistDC Vertigo Comics, 2019Another late Vertigo entry I had overlooked, this World War II graphic novel tells the story of the 182 members of the U.S. 82nd Airborne Division who were dropped way off-course on D-Day. They found themselves 15 miles behind…See More
"The first Die!Die!Die! collection has been on my Hoopla Favorites list for months, but I keep overlooking it. I'll certainly have to read it now."
"Comixology has several categories on sale for half off or better this week. Includes selected Marvel, Humanoids, Dark Horse, and others. A couple of DC lists, too, which allowed me to clear about half of my remaining Vertigo wish list. I guess…"
"Short Cuts 51
Ascender Vol. 2 – The Dead Sea; November Vol. 2 – The Gun In The Puddle; Gideon Falls Vol. 4 – The Pentoculus; Farmhand, Vol. 2 – Thorne in the Flesh; and Ice Cream Man Vol. 5 – Other Confections."
Motherlands: Simon Spurrier, Rachael Stott & Felipe Sobreiro
Motherlands Simon Spurrier, writer; Rachael Stott, artist; Felipe Sobreiro, coloristVertigo Comics, 2018One thing I can say about the later Vertigo miniseries: they were still swinging for the fences, with wildly original concepts. Must have made a hell of an elevator pitch. This one takes place in a network of parallel realities where a nearly infinite set of alternate…See More
"I'm grateful as well. I bought and loved Basketful of Heads, and passed it to my wife, who loved it as well. That made me look at the rest of "Hill House" comics (which, as you said, is Vertigo in all but name). But none of them were…"
"Me, too. First discovered his writing on Lucifer--which I consider the best Sandman spin-off by far--and I've read most of the Felix Castor books, too. I liked The Girl With All The Gifts, too. I have Kindle edition of two later novels that I…"
"I agree about the episode being good. I've really missed John Dorie. I was afraid we were going to lose him during that scene with the walkers falling into the grave. Speaking of which, I am surprised that there are so many walkers finding…"
"Yeah, I can't say I'm invested in any of the characters. The whole YA drama doesn't interest me at all. At this point I'm watching out of habit, hoping it might get better."
"Mr. Vertigo Reviews 82
East of West Vol. 10; Farmhand Vol. 1 – Reap What Was Sown; and Pulp.
The end of East of West; the beginning of Farmhand."
"Thanks for the review, Mark. This is one that I read an issue of, and decided I'd wait to see if I wanted to get the trade later on. I'm still on the fence after your review, to be honest, but if I see this cheap down the line I'll…"

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
