I was going to start with the next arc. Geez, lay off, I only heard that it was good a little while ago.

It's been dynamite since Civil War...you been in a cave?

God, Butch Guice is such a good artist.

Good to see him as a Marvel exclusive.

 

[Anubis]

That was pretty awesome the way Doc Samson Kaiser Soze'd Ultra's ass.

Bad to see him doing Ultimate books.

He's on Cap and Iron Man,so I'm happy.

He is only inking Cap,but I think it's made a really big difference.The art in #33 looked very smooth and much cleaner with the blacks.

No, I've just been uninterested in Iron Man since... for most of the time I've known about him, actually.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that he'll be penciling a few issues, too.

fair enough

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Good stories usually make me get over my inherent indifference to characters. I was indifferent to Thor too, once upon a time in my stupid, reckless youth.

I like Tony. I liked him more when I started reading his book than I liked Matt Murdock when I started reading DD.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

DD is one of the rare instances where good stories couldn't make me care about a character. I read some of Bendis' run, and I knew the stories were pretty good... but I just couldn't give a damn.

 

[PhotoJones]

Brubaker's better with the actual character of DD.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I haven't read Brubaker's DD. Mostly because I suspect I'll really like it, but I've grown accustomed to hating DD. It's kind of my thing.

 

[PhotoJones]

Weird, but whatever. It's a really good mixture of courtroom drama and superheroics.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Damn, that immediately sounds interesting. **** it, I guess I'll pick up a trade sometime.

 

[PhotoJones]

I'd start with Bru's second arc if you ever got around to it. The first arc is just as good, but if it's the courtroom stuff that floats your boat, it doesn't start until the second arc. The first arc deals with him getting out of prison.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Ah, good call. What issue did the second arc start in? I'm looking at trades.

 

[PhotoJones]

To the Devil, His Due is where he finally gets back to being to practicing.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Uh... the first three Brubaker trades are called The Devil, Inside and Out Part 1 (#82-87); The Devil, Inside and Out Part 2 (#88-93); and Hell to Pay (#94-99).

Huh, that's odd. Anyway, you'd want to start with that Hell to Pay trade. The To the Devil, His Due storyline starts with #95. Issue #94 is a standalone with Lee Weeks art and John Romita Sr. cover.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Hell to Pay it is.

Isn't Tony supposed to be losing his sanity or something because of fallout from Civil War? There was talk on message boards.
