MARVELS:EYE OF THE CAMERA...whatever happened to it?

[MattBearPig]

Anyone know???

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Delayed indefinitely, as far as I know.

 

[Darthphere]

Joey Q just released preview pages for this on Friday.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Or not as indefinitely as I thought, as it turns out.

 

[Darthphere]

End of this year according to Joey Q.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Who's the artist again? Did Ross actually come back for it?

 

[Darthphere]

Jay Anaceleto (sp?)

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Oh, right.

[TheCorpulent1]

Nice.

 

[MattBearPig]

Now I know and knowing is half the battle. I love Anacleto's Spider-Man!

Does anyone have a version of the 2nd pic w/o all of the text?

 

[Blader5489]

Looks good...hopefully they get a better writer this time around.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

It's by Kurt Busiek, the same writer as Marvels.

 

[Darthphere]

Yeah, what the ****?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I guess, statistically speaking, someone must've hated Marvels.

Yeah, that's pretty cool.

Guess I'll pass then. Only thing I really liked about Marvels was Ross' art.

Btw, first issue of the Marvels sequel comes out this October. Just announced in today's Cup of Joe panel.

What exactly was wrong with the writing on Marvels? You know, other than being Eisner award winning, fan favorite, must read Marvel?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The only thing I can think of is that it wasn't Avengers Forever, which is obviously the greatest story ever told.

I don't know, I just didn't find it all that compelling. It was also way too expository and melodramatic. I don't care if it won an Eisner, that hardly affects my own opinion of the book.

I also started reading Astro City, which I'm finding even less interesting than Marvels. Is it even worth continuing?

Jesus Christ was quoted as saying "Heck, this even beats Superstar."

That's odd from someone who says Lost is the greatest show ever. I mean, you want to talk about way too expository and melodramatic. WOW.

You hate Astro City too? You should probably just stop reading comics at this point.

Lost is anything but expository. And while it may be melodramatic at times, I find something like Lost (or to use a comic example, Y: The Last Man) more compelling than Marvels.

I never said I hated it, and I never said I hated Marvels either. They're just not that fun to read and feel like more of a chore.

Did you just ****ing compare Y:The Last Man to Lost. Kill yourself please.

 

[Blader5489]

After you.
