I don't know if anyone else reads http://www.ninthart.com/ but you should. They often have excellent little essays about whats going on in comics.

This article I especially enjoyed.

interested, its the house of BMB's ideas.

My favorite quote from this article:

It seems more and more as though editorial control for Quesada these days just means following whatever the esteemed Brian Bendis decides. The recent Avengers revamp looks like the result of a brief conversation the two had in a pub. (No doubt Mark Millar was drinking Tennents and tossing a caber in the background.)

I could totally picture Mark Millar doing that in the background and I actually laughed out loud.

for xmas i got the remainder of the USM hardcovers i was missing and the pulse tpb. so i read them and i honestly understand why people make fun of BMB for having too much dialogue, he does. i found myself putting down the pulse and reading other stuff, and when i returned simply skimming through the pages of dialogue. its like a really bad tarrantino movie, they are either saying nothing or repeating the same thing in different ways. i also grew tired of his constant jewish slang, not everyone uses that. i live in new york, and it has been almost a decade since i have heard have of the sayings that he threw in there.

i guess its safe to say i am not a fan of bendis and my days as an avenger fan are numbered.

i just didnt enjoy it, at first it was ok, and i guess every once in a while the overwhelming text is cool, but it is constant.

****ing FedEx hadn't delivered my stores comics yet when I went there on my lunch break. Now I have to wait until I get off work.

Grrrrrr.

On days like today (it's snowy here), I always call to make sure the shipment has come in. It's at that moment that I really feel like a drug addict.

Thanks. I don't buy that so I might have missed it.

I always look through all the Marvel comics, even the ones I don't regularly buy, just in case Nick Fury's in it.
