cheeselogger Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Wildstorm Comics is set for a major relaunch this coming August. Wildcats will return, pencilled by Jim Lee himself, with a story by Grant Morisson! Other titles to be relaunched for Wildstorm are The Authority, Gen13, and Deathblow. Personally, I'm more excited with the upcoming Wetworks, as my current fave writer, Mike Carey (of Lucifer and Hellblazer fame) teams up with Whilce Portacio on this title. I'm a little apprehensive of the Wildcats relaunch though, because they want to take the title back to its superhero roots. I've been following the Wildcats over the years, and i'm pretty much impressed to where the are now (no more spandex, no more superheroes--everything is covert or undercover. Lord Emp is gone, the Daemonites are non-existent. They've also got a new direction: changing the world by improving technology--it's kinda hard to explain, but just think how the world would change if the Halo corporation sold batteries that lasted forever, or a car that never needed to refuel.) Anyway, Grant Morisson rarely fails to impress. Hopefully he can pull this off like he did with the X-men.Jim Lee on WildcatsWildstorm Relaunch<{POST_SNAPBACK}> if they're gonna relaunch Wildstorm, can I ask what happened to Stormwatch?

thirteen Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 if they're gonna relaunch Wildstorm, can I ask what happened to Stormwatch?<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Warren Ellis (one of the best comic sci-fi writers IMHO) killed off most of the veteran Stormwatch members. The remaining Stormwatch agents reformed under Jenny Sparks and formed The Authority. The first Authority run is well worth the money (there are 4 books that collect this run). Some people say that Marvel's The Ultimates is clearly inspired by The Authority. I'm not surprised many people think that since both the writer (Millar) and artist (Hitch) of The Ultimates both gained recognition on their respective runs with The Authority. Quote Link to comment

I was following that story sort of but the last issue I bought was the one that they made of the future. I mean they made a comic book that's dated for the next year but released it that year... I apologize if I'm not that clear about what I'm saying... Quote Link to comment
badongskie Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 If I'm not mistaken, Liefeld was one of the "trinity" back then (the others being jim lee and todd mcfarlane) that left Marvel to start their own company (Image). Considering that he's being mentioned in the same line as lee and mcfarlane means that back then their art was considered awesome... (hell, I thought it was amazing back then) unfortunately I guess, mcfarlane's and lee's art evolved... liefeld's didn't...<{POST_SNAPBACK}>actually there were seven founders of image(todd mcfarlane, rob liefeld, jim lee, marc silvestri, erik larsen, jim valentino, and whilce portacio) . it's just that mcfarlane, liefeld and lee were the most popular of the lot :thumbsupsmiley: . OT: i also have portacio's uncanny x-men #282(1st bishop appearance) if anyone's interested :hypocritesmiley: . Quote Link to comment

I apologize if I'm not that clear about what I'm saying... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Its collected in the last Stormwatch TPB, Final Orbit. I wouldn't buy it alone though. Better to buy it along with the previous Stormwatch books (The books in chronological order: Force of Nature, Lightning Stirkes, Change or Die, A Finer World, Final Orbit). The last few issues of Stormwatch were rushed and it was obvious either the edtors or Warren Ellis wanted to end Stormwatch as quickly as possible so they could launch The Authority. BTW, I saw a few Stormwatch books sa Fully Booked Powerplant. Its probably still there, or you can ask the desk just in case they put it in storage.

eibmor Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 (edited) Hindi ba na-realize ni Peter that he screwed himself up? I bet may gagawin yung boss niya (Jonah Jameson) about this... Galit siya kay Spiderman eh.. Para ganitong comic cover na to.. Ang nakakatawa dito yung kakampi ng aso nagbato ng granada sa kalaban na aatakehin din ng aso... "Nice one soldier!"

revi Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Was able to buy DC's Brave New World.. a one shot (just 1 dollar - 60 pesos lang sa atin) which features several story arcs from the new Shazam lim. series, Martian Manhunter lim. series, OMAC lim. series, Uncle Sam and the Freedom Fighters lim. series, the new Atom series.. Its just like a sneak peek on the latest titles DC is offering.. Of all the series there are two there that I seem to be curious with.. Martian Manhunter and the new Atom.. There is a new Martian Manhunter and it looks like its not J'onn J'onzz.. The New Atom.. Well, its not Ray Palmer.. --- With Marvel, you may wanna pick up the new issues of the Fantastic Four.. (they are tied-in to the Civil War series, but that is not what is important).. coz it looks like a Thunder God is coming back to the Marvel Universe.. I just hope its not Beta Ray Bill.. the hammer of Thor came tumbling down to Earth.. and somebody was able to pick it up and fly because of it.. and his luggage had the inscriptions DB.. "Don Blake?" Hmm... Quote Link to comment

"Nice one soldier!"<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Actuallt after coming back to New York from Washington, a lawyer from the Daily Bugle approached Peter and was suing him for 'misrepresenting' the paper. JJJ felt he was betrayed by the 'one-person-he-trusted'. Spidey naman, sorta warned Tony that if something ever happens to him, Tony must take care of Aunt May and Mary Jane and to make sure that the opposite never happens (with Spidey surviving and MJ or Aunt May being killed). I think Tony should have his butt kicked by Cap. He's turning into a manipulative SOB... Quote Link to comment

eibmor Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 In my opinion, I think its possible na magiging Anti-registration siya.. Kasi pagtinignan mo siya sa poster (isa sa mga poster) ng civil war, nandun siya sa gitna. Right side (pro) "Iron" Spiderman Costume and then yung Left side (anti) yung Normal Costume niya.. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/7f/Marvel_Civil_War_2_Cover_-_McNiven.jpg/800px-Marvel_Civil_War_2_Cover_-_McNiven.jpg hmmm... http://www.geocities.com/shining_devil_cry/Crotchattack.jpg Impress ako sa mga superheroes na to.. yung isa gamit ang kanyang crotch sa pag atake tapos yung isa naman aatakehin niya yung crotch ng kalaban..

Last issue I read (New Avengers), he was already a high school science teacher.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Also saw that.. but Peter Parker was never an employee of the Daily Bugle.. he was more of a freelance photographer.. but he regularly gives his photos to J.Jonah Jameson.. So, he did not quit.. He just stopped being a photographer for the Bugle.. Correct me if I am wrong, guys.. Quote Link to comment
