I have no idea who those two people are.

I have no idea who those two people are.

They are both really awesome webcomics, go to the sites to check em out.

I just read Black Widow #4, and the train scene where Natasha completely schools Lady Bullseye was one of the awesomest scenes I've read in a while.

Sorry for the Double Post, but Fred Van Lente is writing a Power Man and Iron Fist mini!

Finished out Flags of our Fathers. if you haven't read this, I would really recommend it. It was a really nice paced story. I liked how at the end they tried to set it up with Ed's Winter Soldier with Fury giving the recommendation to a top secret Military panel that Cap needs a partner who can do the dirty things of the War.

So, after seeing this page on ComicsAlliance:

I've decided to read all of Kevin Smith's Widening Gyre. Wish me luck!

"When I was his age, a pair of bullets robbed me of my pluck."

God speed!

I hear urine is the ultimate aphrodisiac.

Daytripper is the perfect comic.

From Chris vs. Previews on Comics Alliance:

P. 38 - Beasts of Burden/Hellboy: I think the record will show that there are very few things the ComicsAlliance staff loves more than Evan Dorkin and Jill Thompson's "Beasts of Burden," the Eisner award-winning series about a group of neighborhood pets who do battle with the supernatural. It's sharply written, absolutely beautiful, and genuinely creepy, and if you're not reading it, you need to be.

And like pretty much everyone else, I'm also a pretty big fan of of Mike Mignola's Hellboy, and every time I see those two titles sitting next to each other on my dedicated Dark Horse Horror bookshelf, I hear that little Peter Venkman voice in the back of my head say "Oh we have got to get these two together." And now it has happened:

I'm pretty excited about this for a number of reasons, but chief among them is just how darn good Jill Thompson's Hellboy looks. The handgun alone, man!

HELL YES.

I see what you did there!

Just read it - that was pretty good. Very Batman-esque.

I didn't realize it was out so soon. Link?

I just can't force myself to even pretend to give a **** about this new power man, not interested in the least

Seriously. I also don't know if E is replying to the right post or not.

That Hellboy/Beasts of Burden thing looks neat though.

Normally I'd agree with you but Fred Van Lente has rarely let me down before, plus more Iron Fist!

That Hellboy/Beasts of Burden thing looks neat though.

Have you read the original Beasts of Burden mini?

 

[Zombipanda]

I need to check out Beasts of Burden.
