Re: What comic did you last read?

Is it just me or is the art in Iron Fist somewhat going to poop?

It might be Fraction, spreading through the narrative like the virulent little STD he is.

Re: What comic did you last read?

Heh, I thought it was just me. The last couple of issues have looked rough as fuck. Shame. Isn't the latest issue the end of the road for both writers and art team anyway? Marvel are obsessed with taking Fraction off of his good-but-low-selling books like this and 'The Order' and moving him to more high-profile characters like 'Iron Man' and 'Uncanny X-Men'. Hopefully neither of those will be as poor a fit as the hilarious-for-all-the-wrong reasons 'Punisher: War Journal'.

Hahaha.

Get into shite teenage girl manga and secrete digest-sized books around your person. If nothing else, the x-ray machine operators will be confused as fuck.

Has anyone read The Goon yet, or is everyone still just assuming that its going to be gash?

Re: What comic did you last read?

I only ever read the first trade (or thereabouts) of 'The Goon' when I borrowed it off a mate back in the heady days of 2005.

Still though, I put it down feeling bitterly disappointed.

Think he meant the new X-Force. I'm not a fan.

. the mini 6 part series thats out aye? That's the one I meant. Read one and 2 and thought I'd see where it was going but 3's just left me feeling cheated out of my money

Still, at least it doesn't have as shit a name as X Factor

Re: What comic did you last read?

X-books don't have to have sensible names, its in the Marvel book of the law or something.

Just thought it was weird using the trilogy syndrome as a way of describing a touch under 70 pages of comics. That, and I can't remember really anything oof note happening in the first three issues. Lots of grim captions, yeah?
