revi Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 May nagbabasa pa sa inyo ng Spawn? Bumili kasi ako ulit nun, eh gawa ni Whilce Portacio. Di ko agad nabasa ito.. Well, I am getting the "new" Spawn of Whilce now.. Issue #185 ang start.. Endgame.. Hindi pa tapos ang buong storyline but I think mapapakuha din ako nung susundo na issues after the Endgame storyline kasi siguro big event sa #200.. Al Simmons ain't the Spawn anymore.. Yun ang tema ng Endgame.. Di ko pa nabasa ni isang panel, hahaha.. Dami ko back-log.. Re-reading Watchmen muna, dahil gusto ko panuorin yung movie.. Quote Link to comment

khumpleetist Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I know that you like Azrael, bro.. :cool: Bad Dog is somewhat like Savage Dragon but with a meaner attitude.. Bad Dog is a werewolf who refuses to change back to human form.. Bounty hunting ito.. I have not read the first issue but it looks promising.. Tamang tama pala ang title na yan. Hahaha. Slow week din for me, pati ata next week.

khumpleetist Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Sir, sa Comic Quest po madami pa. try nyo po sa Megamall. Naked nga lang 'yung book. I bought one last night. I say the issue is not that great. It counts as a set-up but nothing biggie. Unless the ending (with Det. Bullock) is really that connected to the main event. I suggest collecting the main event but who knows, maybe DC will pull something off with the tie-ins (ala FC tie-ins. ARGGGH!!!). I don't know if there'll be a curveball on this but they say that the Oracle tie-in is the one to look for... Quote Link to comment
khumpleetist Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Hahaha! I agree. I really like a Bendis written Spider-Man. Really funny (Minsan hindi, Hehe). The internet comic book circle is quite alarmed at Ms. Marvel's leaning position and Cap's eye direction. Hehe. Good issue. Mali nga lang 'yung drawing ni David Aja kay Iron Fist. 'di in-sync 'yung costume sa ibang pages. I blame the editor. Bendis writes a a good Spidey pero minsan nasosoborahan dahil lahat eh nagiging komedyante. Buti na lang may kapartner (jonathan HickmAN) siya sa Secret Warriors. It's no surprise na maraming inconsistnecies dun sa issue na yun kasi nga parang anniversary issue at kaya medyo dapat mababa ang expectation pero may point ka din kasi nga dapat napupuna ng mga editor yung mga inconsistencies na ganyan. Pero mas nakakabadtrip kung side by side mong babasahin yung New Avengers #50 at Dark Avengers #2 dahil marami kang mapupunang inconsistencies sa art saka parang hindi nga related yung mga nangyari kaya use ur imagination na lang. Hehehe. Quote Link to comment

Hehehe. I think Marvel is taking a "I don't give a crap" attitude on inconsistencies for sometime now. Kasi si Wolverine na lang, eh: Nasa New Avnegers s'ya, Wolverine (of course), Wolverine: Origins (Siyempre, ulit), X-Force, Astonishing X-Men, Uncanny X-Men, at guest pa sa maraming ibang titles. on the same month, sometimes week. Galing 'di ba? :upside: Speaking of Wolverine: Origins, sa issue 33, sapilitang kukunin ni Cyclops at ng X-Men si Daken. Whoo! Patayan na! Prelude ng X-Men VS Dark Avengers sa June.

I agree w/u on this. Kung saan san lumalabas si Wolverine pero pangit lang kasi na sobra namang inconsistent kung magakaparehas nangyari sa 2 titles na si Benids lang mismo ang nagsulat tas hindi pa consistent yung pagakaka sulat. Although yung sa art talaga yung obvious na inconsistency pero sa istorya eh parang meron din. Yung pagdating ni Spiderwoman eh parang di man lang natouch sa Dark Avengers pero katulad ng post ko kanina eh use ur imagination na lang. Quote Link to comment

We, the fans, will just have to fill in the blanks or should I say "editorial shortcomings" of today's editorial team. Remember the days when comics have "editorial boxes" inside the panels? When a character states a certain happening, that line will have a mark or asterisks on the end and there will be a box that says "See issue x of title x," I miss those. It adds a real time feel to the story and we won't have to make our own interpretation/explanation of certain "blanks" For example, Thor #600 -Ginulpi ni Thor at Bor 'yung Dark Avengers pero sa Dark Avengers #2, ni 'di man lang nabanggit 'yung nangyari. Wow. Major point kaya 'yun. Sana naman maayos na 'yung mga ganitong pangyayari. Masyadong "Written for Trade" 'yung style ng writers at approach ng editors. Quote Link to comment

Those "astericks" also give new readers a jumping point of sorts.. Continuity ang importante noon and Jim Shooter (as the editor) is (IMO) a master in that craft.. Look at his Valiant line.. It was a good read.. But I guess, forgiveable naman dahil magagaling mga writers natin ngayon, but still continuity should not be put aside.. I also feel that Wolverine has too many appearances just like those early mid-90's years, wherein, together with Spiderman and Ghost Rider, Wolvie had too many appearances.. Marvel should know that there is a saturation point on Wolvie, I believe that after the showing of Wolverine: Origins the movie, uuntihin na nila yung titles.. Right now, Wolverine also has many one-shots (check Previews) which makes the saturation point easier to achieve.. tsk, tsk.. Marvel should learn from the mistakes of the 90's and they should make readers salivate for characters that they want to read.. Hindi puros pera lang, baka mag-back-fire ito sa kanila..

I've read somewehere -Wizard 'ata or Comics Buyers' Guide- that Jim Shooter is a very strict editor. Very professional. Galit sa mga hacks and pretenders 'yun. Tangkad pa. 6' 7" daw, eh. (Hahahaha! Hala. Wala nang kinalaman sa topic). Talagang seryoso. Kaso sobrang seryoso; maraming kaaway. Kaya 'di s'ya makabalik ng Marvel tapos 'di nagtagal 'yung Defiant n'ya. Sa Valiant naman inalis s'ya. Kung 'di nga nga lang sana s'ya masyadong high-blood, 'di sana natin dinanas ang Clone Saga... Retailer dictated kasi ang Marvel editorial planning, eh. Remember back in the day na ang comics ay talagang serial? It would take more than just 4, 6, or 8 issues before the current story is ended. Yet, the story goes forward. I remember reading a Joe Q interview na kaya daw arc by arc ang story planning sa mga comics ngayon na -of course, sinimulan ng Marvel. Kasi Border's at mga book stores ang nag-mandate na ang ideal Graphic Novel or TPB format ay with-in the limits of a 4 to 8 -maximum of 12 issues. More than that will be a bog down to young readers (??? WTF?! Bakit ang lintik na Harry Potter at Twilight series eh napakahaba din naman, ah!). What the bookstores are trying to tell is na they want the graphic novels to be as complete as possible in one cover. Kaya apektado na rin ang monthlies. Hence, wala ng "editorial boxes" kasi if they will be printed into a trade, it must be complete itself. No more checking other titles so that new readers won't be turned-off by idea of "must buy this book to check out what happened" mind set that the regular geeks like us are known (infamously nga lang) for. Kaya 'yun ang pinatupad ni Bill Jemas na nadala ni Joe and his gang of Anti-Mary Janes. ________________________________________________________________ Oo nga pala, Battle for the Cowl na. Nagpa-reserve na ba kayo? Or better, bumili na ba kayo? Hehehe. Wala munang magkukuwento, ah. Sa Friday ko kasi bibilihin 'yung akin. Speaking of a Batman title, SPOILER ALERT...........Nag-labas na kasi ng press release ang DC, eh. Sa June may bagong series titled Batman & Robin. Guess kung sino ang Robin? . . . Si Damian. 'yung Identity na lang ni Batman ang dapat nating alamin; Let's read Batle for the Cowl. Yey! Quote Link to comment
revi Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 ^ What a spoiler, bro! Eh sino daw si Bats? Hulaan ko.. Si Dick Grayson ano? hahaha.. Sobrang daming pasakalye ang DC tapos si Nightwing din naman ang papalit.. I mean, c'mon! Even in Wizard, their polls on who the fans want to replace Bruce Wayne show Grayson eating the competition.. Much like when Winter Soldier/Bucky replaced Captain America, everyone knew that that would take place.. Well, I have reserved my copy for Battle for the Cowl.. Up until now, pinag-iisipan ko pa kung kukuha ako ng variant.. Pakiramdaman muna bukas ng umaga kung ano ang reviews ng Ign.com.. At kung ano ang mga sasabihin ng CBR sa reports ng sales nila.. haha.. But at 1:10 copies, hindi siguro ito masyadong magiging HOT.. Quote Link to comment

Nafi-feel ko na si Nightwing kaso baka ibahin din ng DC kasi masyadong obvious. If "being worthy" ang pag-uusapan I'll vote for Dick Grayson. kahit na mas established na mas magaling na detective si Tim. In regards sa variant covers, 'pag equal ratio, pumipili na lang ako ng pinkagusto ko. Pero 'pag chase variants, kahit maganda pa, 'di ko binibil kasi ganun 'din naman ang loob, eh. I'll immediately shut down my "collector's desire" towards the item. Ang dami kasing pinagkakagastusan, eh: Books, Toys, Comics, DVDs Games, Magazines tska Babes. Hehe... Quote Link to comment

Tim Drake and Damian do not see eye to eye.. And I feel that Tim is too young to take over the mantle of the Bat.. I'd say, 90% niyan si Grayson ang susunod na Batman.. Who are the other people battling for the cowl? Azrael? -- four words: Been there, done that.. One more word: Flop! So, I don't think so..Hush? -- Naah! Too crazy to be the next Bats.. Face too deformed too.. hahaha..Jason Todd? -- Can be, but ain't he mad at Bruce Wayne? Tim Drake? -- A kid in a Batman suit? No, thanks.. So, all fingers point to Nightwing.. If ever, baka si Jason Todd.. But Tim, Azrael and Hush? Naah.. ------------ I only buy variants that mean something.. Much like yung Uncanny XMen #500 Variants and the pot-mouth version of All Star Bats #10.. Kumbaga hindi lahat.. I am planning to get Flash: Rebirth #1 variant as I expect this to be big.. Kaya iniisip kong kunin yung variant nitong Battle for the Cowl.. But I have decided not to (Tony Daniel lang kasi ito eh - at 1:10).. Baka yung variant nung Morrison's Batman and Robin na lang ang kunin ko.. That is a fresh take on the Caped Crusader and I feel that it won't suck.. Isang variant at yung original cover ang balak kong kunin.. Natawa ako dun sa Babes part ng koleksyon mo, bro.. Sa akin, NBA Cards, NBA paraphernalia, Marve/Spidey figs, DVDs, and Wife-Daughter stuff.. Kasi may anak na ako.. Babes? Pa-minsan-minsan na lang ako diyan at muntik na akong madale diyan.. nyahahaha.. Edited March 12, 2009 by revi Quote Link to comment

Pero 'di ko ma-gets DC: after a successful movie, DC decided to replace Bruce? What about the new fans whose only exposure with the Batman mythos -thru the movies- is with Wayne in the suit? Tsaka sabi ni Dan Didio they are trying to bring back the "iconic representations" of their characters kaya binalik si Hal as GL and babalik na si Barry as The Flash. Bakit tsaka naman inalis si Bruce? ______________________________________ About the "Babes" po: Naku, baka akalain ng mga nakakabasa na talagang gumagastos ako sa girls. Isa lang po kinakaadikan ko na girl. 'yung taga East to West Spa. Limited budget na kasi, eh kaya kahit 'di ko karelasyon na maayos, or wala pa akong GF ulit, s'ya na fave ko kasi familiar na ko sakanya. Hehe. Hala. Napalayo na naman ang usapan. ______________________________________ Nabasa n'yo na po ba 'yung Battle for the Cowl? Ano po masasabi n'yo? Nabasa ko na po 'yung Battle for the Cowl #1. Bukas ko pa po makukuha 'yung copy ko pero nag-torrent na po ako ng copy kanina kaya nabasa ko na. 'di ko na kasi mahintay, eh. Edited March 12, 2009 by NeoXorn Quote Link to comment

Dito ako sa Good Life pumupunta.. I try to visit once every month kaso minsan dahil sa limited time (and budget-haha!), once every two months na ako nakakapunta.. hahaha.. Sarap pa-massage eh.. Hmmm... Going back to Batman, I believe that Didio feels that Batman needs some spicing up.. I also think that they decided to "k*ll" Wayne because they want a new, but familiar title to come to life.. Enter: Batman and Robin.. Its a jumping point for new fans who are not familiar with what has happened I guess.. Malay natin na kung bumalik man si Wayne eh pabayaan na niya na merong bagong Bats.. In the first place, if Grayson becomes the new Bats, Wayne would be happy to retire and just watch from the sidelines.. Who knows what Morrison is thinking and planning.. Right? Hindi ko pa nababasa Battle for the Cowl #1.. Still re-reading Watchmen, bro.. Tsaka na siguro muna yan at gusto ko na mapanood yung movie.. nyahaha!!!
