Nextwave series discussion (Spoilers!)

E said:
I got the second PHC the other day and reread it almost completely in one sitting.

Baby MODOK. Devil Dinosaur. And Joe Quesada wants to retroactively set it in an alternate universe. For shame.

The series is 10/10 and is one of the greatest things ever made.

I demand that, despite how good it is, he drop Thunderbolts and get back to making Nextwave Part Deux: Bigger, Harder, Stronger, Faster, Sexier.

Nextwave is so ****ing good. I miss it so much.
 
I finally read the second hardcover, I Will Kick Your Face

Wow

Wow

Just simply....wow

Tabby spelling her name without the second B, and being unaffected by the mind guy because she's stupid

Machine Man not caring he was stabbed in the chest, and more annoyed by the fact he was getting turned on by it.

All of Captain's names.

Elsa Bloodstone having to kill creature at the tender age of six months old

The six page splash page, with all the NEXTWAVE logos.

MODOK and MODAM having a baby MODOK

Devil Dinosaur upset at all monkeys because one rode on his back when he was younger. And somehow a pic of it was taking.

I loved it

I'm going to go read it again
 
Does anyone know if there are any special features in the trades/hardcovers? Like scripts, art, random comments, song transcripts?
 
An omnibus with all letters pages, the crayon butchery variant, and some interviews and stuff would be great. I'd buy that.

Nope, nothing

I got both hardcovers, there is no letter page no scripts, nothing like that, just pure awesomeness of NEXTWAVE on every page.

The letters page was awesome.

I like the one where they write an essay-length analysis of the song "Africa" by Toto.

Yeah. I asked Warren Ellis who's idea that was and he shook his head, cackling, going, "That was all Nick [Lowe]. He's going to get fired [because he's crazy]."

You could tell Ellis had a real joy working on NEXTWAVE in part because of Nick Lowe. Also, I felt that Ellis was slightly worried about NEXTWAVE's reception: He very humbly asked the audience if we liked NEXTWAVE fearing the fan backlash of "you're ruining our childhood characters!" but instead everyone cheered and yelled "NEXTWAVE!"

And now Immonen is on a Bendis book. :(

NEXTWAVE!
 
I'm not sure if Photon or Machine Man were anybody's favorite childhood characters.




BUT THEY ARE NOW!
NEXTWAVE!!​
