"I've seriously been toying with the idea of pitching a four issue 'Awesome Andy' mini to the guys at 'Marvel Age.' Four done-in-one stories for all ages about what Awesome Andy does on his weekends and days off. Kind of like Curious George stories. Like, 'Awesome Andy Goes to the Zoo' or 'Awesome Andy and the Treasure Map.' What do you guys think?"

It really is very very very good indeed - and his Spiderman/Human Torch is BRILL as well.
― MJ Hibbett, Tuesday, 18 January 2005 12:41 (twenty-one years ago)
I really like the Spidey/Torch thing, but I think it would have been better if they had run it on newsprint. I think the effects they're going for with the colouring and inking don't translate to this newfangled glossy paper.

I've been excited about Two-Gun Kid showing up, because although not many people know Matt's not just a gunslinging honorary Avenger, he's also a Harvard-educated lawyer, I'm betting Slott does.
― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 1 February 2006 18:17 (twenty years ago)
I totally thought Starfox was the Avenger-in-stasis, tho, & have had to delay my Starfox-joy for 2 months, which is surprisingly hard!
GIVE SLOTT A SPIDER-MAN TITLE PLEASE! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!
DAMN IT PLEASE!

I think I'm just saying Slott should write all the Marvel books from the Shooter era of my childhood. Slott's Beyonder Follies! Slott's Iron Man in Red And Silver Armor! Slott's Cloud And Andromeda -- Remember Them? Guest-Starring Firebird.

But yeah, Slott's Spidey/Torch is well worth getting, and I don't think Huk had read much Spidey (right?), so its appeal doesn't rely on memories of those eras nearly as much as I thought it did.
It's like if you subtract Geoff Johns from Kurt Busiek, you have Dan Slott. Or something.

Correct, however, I have seen every single episode of the 60s Spider-Man cartoon several times (because we didn't have cable TV until I was about 8). And, the Spider-Man therein correllates well enough to the Spidey/Torchy version (especially in the first two issues) that I was hooked. PARRRRR-KER!

There are TWO FULL ISSUES of She-Hulk available online. One's @ MileHighComics.com, and one's @ Marvel.com - I think Marvel.com is hosting #1 of the 2003/4 series.

Sensational was a disappointing reread, yeah. The comedy's about as subtle as Mad magazine, and I'm not saying subtlety is the essence or requisite of comedy, but ... ungh.

There's a lot of talk about his Spiderman above, and I like the way that his JJJ is the opposite - a lot of dumb and crazy stuff has happened to Peter Parker over the last 40 years, so you basically have to pick and choose or end up burying him under the weight of it. Whereas with JJJ the more you pile on the funnier.

Should I continue this thread to talk about the Tas Mas vehicle. Or go to MCU.Anyway, quite deeply fun. I do like a bit of Tas Mas. She's awfully good. & I'm sue she loves being called Tas Mas . Well anyway, glad this is another good tv show from Marvel. Was i seeing a LatinX element in the credits. Interesting if so.
― Stevolende, Friday, 19 August 2022 09:34 (three years ago)
THat is to say, looking at end credits I was thinking there was LatinX presence in the crew etc, & pretty female.Which is good. Hoping that inclusivity and actual diversity is rising. I was watching a lot of the Film Fatales webinars a couple of years ago which seemed to indicate it was. not sure how clear a lens that would be though. May be its own gaze or something.
Now seeing that Head Writer is Asian American. which is cool in itself.
― Stevolende, Friday, 19 August 2022 09:57 (three years ago)
Anyone been reading the current (Rainbow Rowell) series? I preordered the Vol. 1 trade on spec… been itching to read something new, and it sounded potentially good.
― Panda bear, my gentle friend (morrisp), Sunday, 21 August 2022 01:03 (three years ago)
^Vol. 1 was good – cute and offbeat – and Vol. 2 (which just came out) is even better… kind of next-level, actually, in a few respects. Highly recommended!
― Day 1 fan (morrisp), Thursday, 8 June 2023 06:18 (three years ago)
I just took a look at the previews for Vol. 1 on Amazon, it does look promising.
