morrison: finished up "7 soldiers" vol 1. and "kid infinity"
wow that late 80s/early 90s painted-stylee dates like a motherfucker.
this 7 soldiers seems to be morrison trying to outdo Moore again, but that's a good thing.

re: granny morrisey: i gave up on seven soldiers pretty early on.. i've got a few issues each of manhattan guardian/klarion/zatanna and shining knight. liked klarion the best. apparently it's gotten better?

re other comics, if we're talkin em on this thread:
old conan b&w magazine-sized deals. B-
fell #4 by warren ellis. B+
cerebus up through melmothish... recently re-readings reveal funnier and funnier joeks.

allan moore hasn't really done much worthwhile since League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, has he? i mean, does he still do weird princess lesbicon porn or whatever?

reading:
i still haven't finished that lomax book i was reading. i want to read more fiction. i want to read a lot of fiction quickly. how do you guys feel about Iain Pears? he was recommended to me, at some point... also Peter(?) Ackroyd?

Peter Ackroyd wrote a book called London.

― Adamrl (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 23:54 (eighteen years ago) link

AND he writes fiction

― Adamrl (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 23:54 (eighteen years ago) link

he wrote a biography of... dickens?

― Special Agent Gene Krupa (orion), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 23:57 (eighteen years ago) link

would i LIKE his writing, adam?

― Special Agent Gene Krupa (orion), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 23:57 (eighteen years ago) link

it...doesn't seem likely!

― Adamrl (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 23:58 (eighteen years ago) link

could you be a bit more descriptive?
this coyness is tiring, adam.

I'm sorry! It's hard for me to write long posts sometimes.

― Adamrl (nordicskilla), Thursday, 9 March 2006 02:03 (eighteen years ago) link

Peter Ackroyd writes historical fiction and non-fiction on very British subjects. I don't know your tastes, but I wouldn't have thought he would be your kind of thing.

Did you MEAN Peter Ackroyd or someone else?

― Adamrl (nordicskilla), Thursday, 9 March 2006 02:05 (eighteen years ago) link

no, i think i meant peter ackroyd. sounds right. i dunno if i'll like the way he writes, but it's definitely the guy.

― bb (bbrz), Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:02 (eighteen years ago) link

tried starting the simon reynolds book on post-punk but it's crap especially considering what he thinks of as post-punk i think of as punk, but then i'm not english and don't have some one note definition based on the sex pistols. VIVA AMERICA!

― Jack Cole (jackcole), Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:43 (eighteen years ago) link

haha, you are incorrigible.

― Adamrl (nordicskilla), Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:44 (eighteen years ago) link

i keep wondering about buying that book as i dont know much about either punk or postpunk, i have the fall records and thats it, but then i never get round to it

― terry lennox. (gareth), Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:45 (eighteen years ago) link

I've never read a Simon Reynolds book. I don't read much about music, really.

― Adamrl (nordicskilla), Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:46 (eighteen years ago) link

the fall is a good example -- PUNK (and even directly inspired to form by the sex pistols playing in manchester to boot). example of weak ass brit def that has unfortunately also become weak ass american def. oh well -- VIVA OHIO!

― Jack Cole (jackcole), Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:49 (eighteen years ago) link

I used to live in Ohio!

VIVA SPRINGFIELD! VIVA YELLOW SPRINGS!

― Adamrl (nordicskilla), Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:51 (eighteen years ago) link

The only "punk" I like isn't punk.

― Adamrl (nordicskilla), Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:53 (eighteen years ago) link

not a bad definition, adam -- unless you go Kogan Humbert Humbert.

― Jack Cole (jackcole), Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:54 (eighteen years ago) link

I don't know what that means!

Honestly, I know nothing about music criticism.

― Adamrl (nordicskilla), Thursday, 9 March 2006 17:01 (eighteen years ago) link

i know several people from yellow springs, ohio. none of them are dave chappelle, though.
