Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I've got 'em all as rar files on my hard drive.

Pop Matters reviews Miracleman.

Miracleman is Alan Moore? I didn't know that. It sounds really interesting. Huh. I want to check it out now.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Miracleman is Alan Moore?

Yep.

It sounds really interesting.

Yep.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It's great stuff. I prefer it to Watchmen, though it doesn't cohere as well and doesn't have the advantage of one artist throughout its run. However, I still think it is the very best examination of the Superman mythos ever done (though obviously it leans a bit more on Captain Marvel in structure), and does the Nietzsche/Superhero thing better than anybody ever could've imagined. Plus it's dark and savage and spine-tingly.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Miracleman is AMAZING. But I never would have read it if I didn't have a friend push it on me -- even second-hand, it's really hard to find.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I haven't read Miracleman, but that's because the only person I know who would loan me their copies foolishly left those copies over in England. But how can it NOT be great?! It's Alan Moore. All bow down before the genius of Alan Moore.

I'll make a note to put it on the elist for you.

See, normally, I'd agree with you, but then I read Judgment Day and was left scratching my head at the supposed genius. But I still want to read Miracleman.

So I read AXM. I agree with a lot of the complaints re: the art, Beast's new look, the costumes, etc. The reveal at the end somehow didn't register for me, because it felt like something they must have already done a thousand times during the run. The impact for me came from the fact I figured she was going to end with the KILL ALL MUTANTS message we all know and love, and so that was a small surprise.

Aw, Harry Potter reference.

I also read Secret War. Is it wrong to like Secret War? Cause I really like it. Not only is it pretty, but I'm a fan of the whole superhero/military intrigue stuff, like in Ultimates and Ultimate Six. And Spidey's not wanting to run into the Green Goblin, or the Hobgoblin, or the Antigoblin, or any other goblin-like creatures was hilarious. I really do need to read Ultimate Spidey, don't I. Damn you, Bendis. Daaaaamn yooooouu!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Ultimate Spidey ROOLZ. Though I'm not crazy about Ultimate Six because I don't really warm up to the (para)military stuff.
