Early ,'Objects In Space'
Discussion of comics, graphic novels, and more. Except for capes. No capes!
Please use spoiler font for new releases until after the weekend following release.
I think Dean trying to protect Sam in that way is very in character. Which is probably why it was the thing I like most about the first comic.
I'm not gonna fanwank the station wagon--I suspect one of the upcoming issues will be about the acquisition of it. We don't have any canon support for the idea that the Winchesters owned the Impala all along, do we? So it could just be that John did own the station wagon, and when he decided to become a hunter, bought the Impala.
I mentioned the art to Ailleann in the comic shop. It doesn't convey the pretty. But I assumed the wagon was the Winchester family car. Makes sense with two kids. Loved how lost John was.
Yeah, I agree on the artwork. Do we know if they're planning on a rotating group of artists, or will it be the same folks for the whole run?
The wagon doesn't feel out of place to me. And it wouldn't surprise me if John left what was arguably Mary's car behind. (Or sold it for ammo.) He was also a mechanic, so acquiring a classic muscle car and restoring them to use them to hunt demons probably wouldn't be all that challenging.
We don't have any canon support for the idea that the Winchesters owned the Impala all along, do we?
Actually, we do. In the pilot, John is sitting on the car as the house burns. It's clearly the Impala, say those who know cars.
Covers and other infor for Buffy #5 - spoilery for subject. (This is the standalone.)
Oooh, that standalone looks like it could be a lot of fun!
I think so too.
The third cover seemed very Frayesque to me.
Yeah, it does (both look fun and seem very Frayesque).
I went to the link and said "damn. Alien vs. Predator is a really interesting standalone. I don't know what to think about this....oh."
Anybody see Maakies on Adult Swim last night? It was excellent. I missed the incredible architectural detail of Millionaire's drawings, but it was a completely undiluted transfer of his world. Emmett laughed his head off and declared it "Very disturbing!"
You know what I love about YouTube? You can find all those odd little animation pilots that never got off the ground. Amazing Screw On Head is gorgeous steampunk, and funny. You can find the Peter Bagge animation for Hate (kinda sucky) and there's an incredible Japanese animation of one of Jim Woodring's Frank strip.
There are also the original Maakies shorts that were done for SNL.
