Re: Retro Comics are Awesome

Green Lantern #71 September 1969 The City that Died! Script - John Broome Pencils - Gil Kane Inks - Joe Giella It's been a long time since we had two stories in an issue, and we've got the classic combination of Broome, Kane and Giella on this first story. Interesting to see Broome give Hal this di...

Re: Transformers 2019 (IDW comic series) discussion

I've started re-reading this series now that I have all of it in collected form, which is honestly how it reads best. It's nice to be reminded of just how much I enjoyed it and why.

Re: Fall 2023 Hauls

Finally got the final IDW2 Transformers volume "War's End", so I have that entire continuity in hardcover. Looking at the contents, it collects Transformers #37–43, Transformers: War’s End #1–4, and Transformers: Fate of Cybertron which wraps it all up. I still hate that this continuity en...

Re: Comics are Awesome III

Green Lantern #6 - Another good issue, even if I can sum it up pretty succinctly: Hal and Sinestro have a major fight, with some interesting incidents taking place when it comes to Hal's ring. Sinestro escapes Earth using the rage-powered ring (which is still his yellow ring). Hal can't follow. Raz...

Re: Retro Comics are Awesome

I ran across another book I've wanted a copy of for some time: Batman from the 30s to the 70s. I have the Superman volume covering the same era, both were published in the early 1970s, a few years after the 30th anniversary of both characters I'd imagine. Back in the days before the comprehensive re...

Re: Comics are Awesome III

Great find today: the alternate version of Batman 428, part three of "A Death in the Family", where Jason Todd survived. It's not that different from the original issue, maybe four pages and a few panels. Some of the narration around taking the body home is now about Jason's mom instead o...

Re: Comics are Awesome III

Shazam #6 - "Meet the Captain" wraps up, and the solution to the problem of the gods who give Billy the powers of Shazam is not only fairly obvious once it's stated, but it references the Golden Age Captain Marvel concept of Billy and the Captain being two different people. There's the us...

Re: Retro Comics are Awesome

I finished up the Green Lantern: Kyle Rayner compendium. Like all of these thick paperbacks, there are a few instances where the art or lettering gets partially lost in the gutter, but overall I like this format because of just how much they can fit into a single volume. - After his adventures out i...
