"Cap, I would say your taste in comics run closer to Jeff's than they do mine, so may very well enjoy the Crumb book"
"With Bifrost, I went with the pronunciation that didn't sound like English. Little me didn't know exactly what Vikings spoke, but he was pretty sure it wasn't English.
With Sub-Mariner, I took my cue from an early issue where Roy Thomas had some…"

"The movies pronounced it "the Buy-Frost," so you were on the money, I pronounced it more or less the second way. (biff-RAWST), and hang my head in shame."
"But a driven detective in a city that's falling apart? Any city can have one of those.
Good point. And a prime example of that is The Question (Vic Sage flavor). In the Denny O'Neil/Denys Cowan series, he operated in Hub City, which was violent and…"

"I don't doubt you're correct, Dave. But I still call it poor design. Note that on the two flags in your example the colors aren't the same, nor are they in the same order. You'd have to memorize the colors and the order, since they don't represent…"
"Aw, shucks."
"Y'all talked me out of Crumb's Genesis, and back into it again. Just call me Captain Wishy-Washy.
SPECTRE: THE WRATH OF THE SPECTRE OMNIBUS HC: I have this already, and it's a great book...
We have a DISCUSSION of it, too.
I went back and re-read…"

"I remember liking it at the time as well. Apparently, it predates my blog, so I can't point to a review. I did give it four stars on Goodreads."
"I have a hunch your hunch is correct.
Bifrost is one of those words that, having only read it, I mispronunced until I heard it in a Marvel movie. The list of such words, I'm afraid, is rather lengthy."

"It was so amazingly bad, one wonders what the thinking was. "We must make sure the readers know he's gay," maybe. Or "This is what gay people are like," maybe. I really can't imagine. I don't think professionals would deliberately offend any part of…"
"That's possible."
"I was online earlier and read Travis's comment. I was going to refute it then, but figured "Why be contrary?" I've read it twice and really enjoyed it. I didn't read it recently when I was reading a bunch of Bible-related comics, but only because I…"
" I know some people love this book, and I can see why, but it feels a bit on the silly side to me. ("Dead End Kid" Voice) "Dat's me!" "Silly" is kind of the point for me, not being such a serious-minded, strait-laced fellow as yourself."
"I would be perfectly happy if it was Howard. The character started as a mildly entertaining satire, but after the movie and Bill Mantlo's version, he's just an embarrassment. If he joined Mopee in the memory hole, I wouldn't mind. Better still if…"
"That's the only "Cosmic Odyssey" I know of, and I can't remember mentioning it recently (or ever). I mean, it was okay, but but I'm sure you've read it...?
Yes, and dismissed it instantly. Then I THOUGHT I read somewhere that you really liked it.…"

"Yikes! I was planning on getting it, since I haven't read Genesis (and other Bible books) since high school. I thought, "Great way to refresh my memory!" But maybe not?"

I have one scheduled for week after next. What's up?
Are you going to write an article on the show Cloak & Dagger, which debuts June 7 on the Freeform cable channel (formerly ABC Family)?
After all these years, that's all I get, "Welcome aboard" ? Geez, it's not like I've only know you longer than any human on this planet outside my siblings. Seriously, I hope all is well. Speaking of siblings, how's Clyde, Bethany and Persilla (sp?)? Hal, Randy and Karen (mine) are still alive and kicking. I hope you're doing OK. My life has been eventful, good and bad. You must be in hog heaven with all the movies finally able to match people's imagination with the CGI and all. Every time I go to one or read a comic, I can't help but think of you, old friend. Yes, you're living rent free in my skull. Stop it. Stop it now...damn, didn't work. I live in Charleston, SC. Great place. Come visit...or else...

Hulk now part of army of Hulks. A-Bomb, Red-Hulk, She-Hulk, Red She-Hulk, Paisley She-Hulk, Hulkcetera. Hulk in big-budget movies. Hulk on red carpets. Hulk's introversion clearly a ploy to get attention.
Hulk still not sure about this social media stuff, kinda defeats the whole purpose of being an introvert, if you ask Hulk...
Just received a spam message on my profile page from someone named Frank David asking me to invest in his gold mining business.
