Comic Review for week of October 9 2019

Booooooring.

Calling this the “Pyro” issue is technically correct, but man is it missing the point of the issue.

I’m still saving these for when I have them all, which I think I’m like one issue away from having them. Then I’ll need to find time!

A great wrap up of the Black Cat story, laying the ground for her to come back later as a less bad person.

I can’t tell about this book. Is it actually racist? or are they doing a poor job at satirizing someone that’s been satirized more effectively by others?

Purchased both at the same time due to the LCS forgetting to pull one for me last week. Good short horror stories!

Not much happens here, but then again, nothing ever really happens of note in these lead-in comics.

Saving for a rainy day.

Fantastic cover, absolute garbage story and art.

I think I missed a couple issues here, but I’m somewhat familiar with what’s going on, so maybe I didn’t. Regardless, this is another “nothing is going to happen” prequel, this time to a video game.

Fantastic battle between bounty hunters and Vader.

This is it, my final GI Joe comic for a while. It’s not a bad one and in fact makes me think that maybe I should buy the rest of this story.

Ah, Watchmen #1, a great start to a long story that really said some cool things but drug on way too long to really hold my attention.

Iron Man 3

Directed by Shane Black. With Robert Downey Jr., Guy Pearce, Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle. When Tony Stark’s world is torn apart by a formidable terrorist called the Mandarin, he starts an odyssey of rebuilding and retribution.

Easily the worst MCU movie to date, with inconsistent internal logic, a story structure that just never gets off the ground, and I’ll never forgive them for not including any of the previously mandatory music from ac/dc.

The best thing I can say about it was the orchestral soundtrack was amazing, the acting was on point, and the special effects were what I would expect from a MCU movie.

Iron Man 2

Directed by Jon Favreau. With Robert Downey Jr., Mickey Rourke, Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle. With the world now aware of his identity as Iron Man, Tony Stark must contend with both his declining health and a vengeful mad man with ties to his father’s legacy.

4k/hdr review:

this is it, my favorite iron man film. there’s a few reasons for this, but there’s two that immediately come to mind: 1 – war machine is amazing here, and this was really the first “big universe” feeling movie, in which Nick Fury, Black Widow, Agent Coulson, and even for a brief moment, thor’s hammer all make appearances.

Iron Man

Directed by Jon Favreau. With Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Terrence Howard, Jeff Bridges. After being held captive in an Afghan cave, billionaire engineer Tony Stark creates a unique weaponized suit of armor to fight evil.

4k/hdr review:

This sure is a pretty movie, still holds up amazingly well after 11 years, but I’m still somewhat bummed by Terrance Howard only getting a single movie, though that’s tempered somewhat with how well Don Chedle handled the role of Roady.

Warm Suicide

A beautiful woman is standing on a bridge, looking over the side and thinking about jumping off.

A homeless man walks up to her.

She sees the man coming and says, “Go away! There’s nothing you can say to change my mind!”

He says, “Well, if you’re going to kill yourself anyway, why don’t we have sex? At least I’ll enjoy it.”

“Absolutely not! You’re disgusting!”, she replies. The man turns and starts walking away.

“Is that all you’re going to say? You’re not going to try to convince me that life is worth living? Where are you going?”

“I have to make it down to the bottom. If I hurry, you’ll still be warm!”, he says.

Comic Review for week of August 28th 2019

Not-snake eyes is under surveillance by Cobra! Yo Joe Cola makes an appearance!

More ninja on ninja violence, when will it stop? Hopefully not any time soon!

I absolutely loved this cover, it’s a fantastic celebration of the wonder of Marvel Comics. The content inside was a waste of time reading and had absolutely no redeeming value.

Poe belongs to the stars, but they shoved in someone else for this story to take the punch out of a story that should have been his alone.

I’m still missing #2 and #3, so I’ll hold off to review until those are done.

Love the cover, love the story, just wish we got more Trek comics of this quality.

Who knew that the cry baby general from the First Order came from a troubled childhood?

The end of an interesting story that ultimately went no where.

3-D gimmick! McFarlan is a great artist to do this with, as he’s always throwing extra stuff in for the backgrounds and his spidey art is highly dynamic. Specifically there was a scene with some pigeons flying around, then a scene with spidey in the air and his webs flying all around him that worked really well for the 3d effect.

continues to be the first thing I read when it comes time to reading my weekly pulls.

Not a great book, but come on, the parody cover alone was worth the price of admission.

I think I’m back on board with what’s going on here, the villains are more better well explained and there’s a guest star in the last panel!

The creative team on this book is just mind blowingly good. May they always have access to the Batfamily!

I love this cover and I love what they’re going for here.

And now, some reviews for books that didn’t just come out, but I just read:

An interesting concept and I’m surprised as how well it worked. LCS was having a half off sale on their hardcovers and I’d had my eye on this one for a while, and at that price it was well worth my time to read.

I actually bought the 8 single issues and the covers for them are pretty dope, they spell out AVENGERS and looks amazing all lined up. The story inside is not as interesting and seemed to meander for most of the mini series with no real point to the whole thing. I also bought the first mini series, it has the same situation, cool covers, but I’m assuming the story is going to be less exciting.

I think I bought these because I found them for three or four bucks each on amazon and I had read the Image Firsts version of the first issue and was somewhat interested in the story. It’s a great story and some good art, but at the end of the day I don’t think this series is for me.

Comic Review for week of August 21st 2019

Events on the cover do not happen in the book. Not to say that this a bad cover (might complain about what she has on it though), or that the story inside is bad, just a weird fetish of mine is to complain when the advertisement on the cover doesn’t reflect the story being sold inside.

First issue of her third or fourth series, she finally has a name, though that was given to her in the previous series. Marvel has really leaned into the idea of just re-numbering the series when sales start to lag, luckily they’re also using the legacy numbers along with this, so it’s the best of both worlds. This was my first issue of any of her series that I’ve read and my only exposure to her has been through the spider-verse storline, then the spider-verse movie. I love the concept, and I love her costume, but as of this issue I’m learning that it’s alive somehow? Might be a symbiote? I dunno! I may or may not go back to buy previous issues to find out, but I feel like she’s one of those characters that has most of her growth in series that are not her own, primarily the spider-man books, and to figure out her story is going to be a serious pain in the ass.

She’s getting into politics! What a waste of a fantastic character!

They’re still on the run from the bad guys from the first issue, I’m on the fence on if I like these characters or not.

Star Wars story about the bad guys killing the good guys, but being sympathetic while they kill them. ehhhhh.

MODOK is triumphant! Mostly!

The art direction is pretty weird, but I’m still enjoying the Marvel Action books more than the mainline Marvel books.

I can’t remember if 616 Black Cat had luck based abilities, all I remember about her is that she was a burgler that hooked up with Spidey a few times. She’s a luck based burgler here in the MA universe, but there’s been no Spidey flirting yet.

Golly I’m enjoying the Adventure books!

… I only bought it because of the Art Germ cover, but this storyline is weak sauce, throwing out the last 20-30 years worth of story and just pick up where the author previously left things when he left the character in ye olden days.

A Reminder Do Not Park Your Car At The Gas Pump You Terrible Debased Heathens

With a half hour left to the start of the work day, I was confident. I’d driven back from Jalopnik’s track day at Monticello Motor Club after an early start so that I’d have plenty of time to fill up the gas tank and grab breakfast at the Wawa down the street from my apartment. There was just one problem: every single goddamn fucking pump was taken.

This is shocking to me, that you have to explicitly tell grown adults to not be assholes. There’s a couple high volume stations that I’ve been to that have large stickers that tell you to not leave your car at the pump, and yet people still do it.

Bomber Crew Complete Edition

Players will find themselves deep behind enemy lines, attempting to destroy their most coveted assets, while dealing with various hazards such as flak guns, enemy radar, weather and dreaded Ace Pilots. Recruiting, training and guiding the right crew, and keeping them alive, is vital in turning the tidesof war and achieving success on your bombing campaign. Bomber Crew: Complete Edition is a management-sim where you complete high-risk missions and earn bonuses and upgrades, all with your crew by your side. Strategize your way to victory by assembling the best crew for the task! Bomber Crew: Complete Edition includes the original game plus the Secret Weapons and U.S.A.A.F. DLC.

This is a fun little mass murder simulator that has you managing 6 members of a bomber that has 8 seats, so you’re constantly moving back and forth from seat to seat trying to keep your murder plane up in the air while getting shot up by enemy planes. I gave up on it when I noticed that it has some mobile gaming drawbacks that made me feel like I was never really moving forward with upgrading my airplanes and after 3 or 4 crashes I was back to using the starter plane but doing advanced missions.

MCS Top Posts for the week ending 2018-11-09

Here’s this week’s Top Posts

Tiki Asks: Have you ever had a surprise gift in something you bought?

I recently (this last weekend!) bought a large collection of first run Star Trek books, they were $30 on facebook for 60+ books, which is a great deal for these first edition paperbacks.  They mentioned that there were several Trek fan club things too, which were included in a large envelope.

When I got home, I found several welcome letters from Gene Roddenberry, and signed by Gene.  I thought that was awesome, but then I found a picture of Spock and Kirk, signed by Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner.

Well worth the $30!

Have you had any pleasant surprises like these?

Another Life

Astronaut Niko Breckenridge and her young crew face unimaginable danger as they go on a high-risk mission to explore the genesis of an alien artifact.

I’m a big fan of Katie Sackoff, but this isn’t her best work. There’s some extremely uneven writing here, but I feel like it’s the start of a great storyline.

Unfortunately though, the negatives far outweigh the positives and i can’t really recommend the series.

Comic Review for week of August 16th 2019

The end of a relatively interesting story that never really captured me. This was my first real introduction to the character and for all intents and purposes she’s a fairly irredeemable character

Two fun stories in a book that has a legit spine.

Good wrap up of a story that I would have read 10+ issues of. I hope they revist this planet and history again.

Spock rocks the vote, all while the Enterprise is helplessly floating around space doing not much of anything because of a mutiny attempt.

Good wrap up, I suggest this mini series, it’s goooood.

I have all the back issues for this on order and they should be to me by next review!

I’m still surprised at how earnest and wholesome this series has ended up being. Sure, it opens on a decapitation, but that served the story well.

Hit-girl makes some new friends!
Hit-girl’s new friends get all shot up!

“You wanted Vader? Well here he is!” he says as he runs from Vader. i’m happy to see this bounty hunter back in action, and i’m really happy I read star wars 108 before this series started.
