I liked Ocean a lot. Which was nice because Orbiter was kind of a letdown.

Spectacular Spider-Man was actually good this morning. Or maybe it was just that I liked how they handled the symbiote so much better in the cartoon than the film.
Did you watch the cartoon in the '90s? They did a good job too.
I caught what I think were the first two episodes of Spectacular Spider-Man in a hotel a few months ago and was pretty impressed.
I must have missed that. I'm surprised D hasn't gotten it from Netflix. The last Spidey cartoon I watched regularly was Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends. I used to watch the 60's one in syndication when I was a kid. I loved it but Mom would watch it with me and critique it to death. I thought she just didn't get it until we bought the whole series a few years ago. Another lesson that Mom is always right. I think we've only tried to watch it once.
The Spidey and X-Men cartoons in the '90s were where all my comic book knowledge came from before I got into comics. I loved them.
I'm told it's obvious I learned about X-Men from the cartoon since Gambit is my favorite.
Hee. He was pretty awesome in the cartoon, yeah.
Me too,Laga.
I saw the sneak of the trailer for Wolverine a little while ago and I'm pretty sure I saw a guy in a trenchcoat chucking cards. Also, if I'm not mistaken, Liev Schreiber is playing Sabretooth.
I just finished Grant Morrison's All-Star Superman, which did not feature Supes saying, "I'm the goddamn Superman." I'm not really a Superman person beyond Smallville, so I wasn't familiar with most of the characters in their comics incarnations. It was a...weird series. Superman has some weird adventures, man. But I liked how cohesive it ended up being, with little things from previous issues popping up later. It was rather clever in that way.
