Not really. I think this cover is disgraceful. As are most of his private commissions. He's like a different person on pro work. His Harley and Wonder Woman covers are all very well done without a hint of this.

Well of course. Major publishers will go out of their way to avoid anything offensive. But you can't fault the guy for drawing whatever for private commissions. He's gotta eat too.
And Hydra who "used him" in Secret Empire(he was happy to join up)
Okay, fuck this shitting on Rosenberg's run.

Sure, he can draw what he likes and people are free to think he's a piece of shit for doing it. He's actively courting a certain type of comic fan... One that is no use in today's market.

I find it hard to cape for a guy who is selling these for 1k a pop. Food on the table? Gimmie a break.
It's ok for him to be a piece of shit. He doesn't care what I think and he doesn't care if you defend him.
Heres my setup. Need another shelf, but dont have the room for it atm.
Let me know if they are too big.

Seems like he'd just use it to go kill supervillains, since that's generally out of his weight class.
I thought AN Ultimates was ok...wasn't New Warriors though.
The kicker was Ford got better post Silk.
But obviously no supervillain Marvel likes even though people like kingpin are easy to kill
I wanna say it was Tom Grummet on the early issues? That dude's art is 90's DC for me, since he did that and Robin for a bit. Superboy only lasted 100 issues and most of its good until...maybe the last ten issues? When they're transitioning him to Teen Titans Superboy.
"Only" :P
I have a challenge for people who've read more Aquaman than me: Name as many villain on this piece as you can. I have trouble with the ones in the back

The only relevant villains in the back are Nereus, King of Mera's people, the girl is the Dark AquaBat from Metal, and the dude is the king from Geoff Johns' run.
Also, I guess "only" is a misnomer. 100 issues is a long time. Impulse didn't last that long and Nightwing fell off a cliff way before 100.
It's fun art. I rarely ever enjoy 90's art as much as I do his.

Black Manta
Trench
Drowned
King of Mera's crew
The old king of Atlantis
I will never understand whoever signed off on this.I still have nightmares about The Killing Joke's recolor doing away with the original's nightmare fever dream vibes

Not defamation if you're actually a known sexual predator, as it turns out.
BOOM's panel at Power Morphicon is ongoing or just finished. Not much we didn't know. Some looks at Deathryuger's PR counterpart and another Original Generation character (I think):
And some mad stuff altogether happening in Go Go Power Rangers: Back to School;
I hope that's not another alternate universe thing. Let us have a "The Rangers have weird daydreams" arc and have this be Trini's one.

Fun fact: roughly subtracting covers and other additions to the collections, the Clone Saga is around 4800 pages long.
I just stopped by my local Barnes and Noble's comic book section.
Apparently, Swamp Thing collections are a bust, but now I know where to go if I need a hardcover Homestuck collection.

I feel like the story was like the O5. It was selling so despite the exit strategy things just kept going.
My local bookstore is mostly manga and a ton of unsold New 52 Suicide Squad and Harley Quinn. They seem to have bet big on that movie.
It was apparently pitched to only last 6 months and then Ben would take over as the "real" Spider-Man. But then editorial did their dumb thing and by the time Ben became the "real" Spider-Man everyone was angry and it only lasted a year. Crazy to think how different things could've gone.
Honestly in terms of crazy retcon ideas it allowing Peter to retire with MJ and start a family isn't really that bad.
I don't know why people think attempting to invalidate long-term fans' memories will ever end well, tbh. You wanna replace Pete, let him ride off into the sunset some kinda way, and introduce Mayday Parker. You don't tell fans "The guy you've been reading for twenty years? Not even the real Spider-Man."
Marvel put out a mini about a decade ago that followed the original plan for the Clone Saga.
Next issue of the ongoing. There is a special Shattered Grid Finale issue on the 28th that will be double-sized and will lay the groundwork for what's to come.
It's still terrible but I'll give them a little credit for giving "fake" Peter a happy ending. Didn't Iron Man get a 90s retcon that he was secretly evil or something? But Marvel needs to keep Peter young and relatable* forever so we'll probably continue to get dumb attempted retcons in the future.
*self-insertable
I'll have to check it out (yes I'm probably going to check out the Clone Saga soon).
Thanks ! I never read Kabuki but i really should try it in the futur because i love the style of David Mack.
Yeah, that's one of the things I was referencing when I said they have a bad habit of invalidating long term fans memories. The Crossing revealed Kang had been controlling Tony Stark for...well, I don't think they ever said quite how long.

The guys with Katana shoulder pads are the AquaMarines (I think) US soldiers with powers, from Rebirth"Only" :P

Solar Ranger is Quorra confirmed?
To be fair, that's pretty much what being relatable means.
Saw some collection posts, let's get it fellas:
My bookcases atm:
Got a few comic things hanging up, so here's what I have up on one of my walls right now:
And some commissions and a print I need to hang up:

I have a bunch of other books lying around, so I may need to do some kind of purge soon or get more shelves. I've put a large hold on buying physical books recently due to lack of space in my room.

There are two different kinds of self-insertable imo, the "I could be in this situation" type and the "I can live out my fantasy through this" type like a Persona protagonist. Marvel tries to pretend Peter is type A (and for the most part he's been that way historically), but in reality he's become type B. Marriage? Not fantasizable enough. Cute Asian girl that as an irresistible desire to screw you when she's in your presence? Sounds great!
