Fresh Ink: Red Hulk, Revisionist Spidey, Etc.

Posted by Mike D'Alonzo - Friday, January 11, 2008 5:35 PM

Ga-Schlapp! Blair Butler is back and she's giving you the best of the first crop of comics for 2008, including The Hulk, Amazing Spider-Man, Infinite Horizon, Pax Romana, and The Twelve. Sure is a lot of comics, don't you think? We thought so, too, which is why we made this a super-sized episode of the Ink.

Enjoy!

I completely agree at how SILLY Spiderman got. And I'm telling you... as a fan, I don't like reading a story line, since, oh, I don't know, 1978??? and finding out it was all magicked away. Sigh.

Well, my $3/3x month can go for more coffee :)

I'm really enjoying The Infinite Horizon, and am glad I picked it up based on Blair's recommendation. (In fact, I also picked up The Sword based on her suggestion, and I love that one, too. I love your taste, Blair!)

The Infinite Horizon could make for a potentially cool television series.

I wish I had more money to buy Blair's recommendations. She's fantastic at finding comics that I haven't even heard of which are absolutely wonderful to read.

If you are reading this Blair, thanks.

Just want to say a great review of Pax Romana, i bought it having not read his previous work and not sure at all what i was buying, but the art looked good, which it is, but he is also a fantastic writer, i can't give it high enough praise, it's certainly one of the best comics I've read in a long while.

I was disappointed when Blair hadn't shown it already, but I'm glad you didn't let me down :)

I'm also going to be purchasing Infinite Horizon & The Sword from your reviews.

As fur the spider-man thing, I'm not into superhero comics, but if i was, I'd be so angry with that BS, i couldn't read it any longer.

Im like Berry in the fact that I dont really care for super hero comics, but hate what they are doing.

But I cant find prety much anything she recomends where I live. We have only one comic book store, and the person running it prety much only get the crappy comics that came out a long time ago, and no one really cared much aout.

Although I don't raed comic books, other than mangas, but wtf! How does no one remember that Peter Parker is spidey. Don't they have TiVos in the Marvel universe, because I seem to remember that spidy unmasked himself on national TV. Don't any of the networks have footage of it. CNN, NBC, G4TV! I guess Earth 616 is just f-ed up.

i always wished she would review spawn i love it and nothing can change my opinion but none of my freinds read comics and would love to see what other people think about it and it could fit on the show because todd macfarline is doing a reprint of them

If the new issue of The Amazing Spiderman is that bad...I may never read it again. That just sounds SOOOOOOOOOO stupid! They must have run out of ideas. If they were going to start from scratch they could have gone about it in a different manner. I have a feeling I will be very disappointed.

The real question I have is that they completely destroyed 2 decades worth of history and screwed over the fans of Spidey, just to appease Joey Q and his insane obsession with erasing the existence of the wedding to Mary Jane from the Marvel universe. That's 21 years of dedicated readership that means NOTHING. NOTHING. That's nearly a quarter of a century of your reader's invested time and energy that has been completely nullified. Does marvel like wasting 21 years of it's reader's existence? Who knows.

But... why should anyone start reading now, then? I mean... if they're willing to completely destroy 21 years worth of continuity... who is to say that in another 10, 20, 30 years from now, they'll completely wipe out THIS continuity that they just started? What's the point of investing anything in the series anymore? When I'm in my late 50s, I don't want to look back and realized nothing I've read in my life since I was 7 years old has mattered.
