ha. so, my facebook is full of comic pros.
95% have gone full NPC of course.

Yesterday, an amusing thing went around. another twitter/tumbler decides to "fix" art that has the audacity to not be fat.
its of course the classic Campbell Mary Jane cover.

not sure how many picked up on it. Mark Brooks was the one I saw, and tons of comments. His take, was both bad and good. Elitist nepotism, but at least defending artists..
he's since deleted it... but it was, "this is bad, you'll never get a job in this industry by attacking the established pros. don't do this, no one will ever want to work with you." paraphrased.

I deleted the post from last night. It seemed to be getting out of control and the point was being missed by many people. It was becoming an excuse for people to attack each other.
As a friend pointed out, it can be perceived as punching down and the amount of comments and shares proved that. I love having discussions around the subject of art and the comic business but think my knee jerk reaction probably wasn't the best idea.
Oh well, I live, I learn.
as you can see the comic book industry has of course been totally infested.

After watching the first season of Invincible last week on Amazon Prime I decided to read the series.

It was ok.

invincible is one of the rare instances where adaption is better than source

i'll even say xmen 90s was better than comics

hey man in the 90s you had to choose between more xmen comics and baseball cards, me and friends pooled our monies to share comics and read em over and over and on saturdays you actually tuned into fox (they didn't have cartoons back then) to watch xmen and wildcats.

Female hero powered by menstruation! Powered by period blood...swings from armpit hair. This will surely sell!

been meaning to ask, are there anything good recent scifi comics out?
Check out Descender. There's a sequel series called Ascender but it looks like the creators just fucked it off halfway through.

edit: oh shit, looks like they got it worked out and Ascender is back on track with issue 16 releasing this month. Nice.

Claremont/Byrne Xmen run is the pinnacle of comics as far as I'm concerned. Diamond Comics are dogshit and shifting to a different distribution is all upside.
