Next they'll be covering Sienkiewicz.
Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yeah, I don't get the point.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I like the ones that take the original and go somewhere with it, like Sam Jackson as Nick Fury or the fact that clearly Elektra needs two hands to hold that gun. But the ones that just redo the original with better composition, like the Fantastc Four, NSM.

I can see why most of those were rejected but I love the R Crumb one.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Yeah, I don't get the point.
Well, cartoonists swipe from Kirby all the time. At least here they're acknowledging it.
Though I can see the value in the same sense that art students used to spend time at museums copying the Masters to learn their technique.

Does anyone here buy comics digitally? I'm looking at the DC digital site, and interestingly, they're reprinting Camelot 3000 digitally. However, they're only up to #19 of Batman & Robin, whereas paper is up to #24, at least. Which would drive me nuts.
However, the reboot should fix that.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Dide we know this was in the works?

I was talking about the difficulty of drawing Aldis with John. I wonder if it was for that, or for some upcoming comic. Apparently it's not just the fanartists having problems (seriously--it's worse than Jensen).

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Matt,
I saw someone at the con I went to last weekend with the guide book. Didn't get a chance to ask if I could look at it.
