Haven’t had back-to-back weeks like this.  Yowza.

  • Buzzkill #4 (Dark Horse): One of the best minis of the year comes to a close.  No need to crack open a cold one to enjoy what Donny Cates and the crew have brewed up–but it certainly can’t hurt.  In fact, let’s drink to what they’ve accomplished thus far and to the promise of a perfectly choreographed booze-fueled father-son throwdown.
Buzzkill #4

Buzzkill #4

  • Dark Horse Presents #31 (Dark Horse): A hefty price to pay for a sliver of of the sublime Mind MGMT.  Oh, I’ll be paying it, all right!  Just like I paid…for…this…
Mind MGMT #17 pp. 22-23

Mind MGMT #17 pp. 22-23

  • The Massive #18 (Dark Horse): Over the life of The Massive, Brian Wood has put on a clinic in understatement and tension–no single issue more successful than the revealing #17, which put Callum Israel’s hatred for Bors Bergsen in context.  Brilliant.
  • Batman and Two-Face #26 (DC): I’ve said it before; I’ll say it again: despite what you’ve been led to believe, this is the best Batman book going.  Peter J. Tomasi and Patrick Gleason deserve far more credit for what they’ve been doing with Batman, particularly post-Robin.
  • Wonder Woman #26 (DC): Still worth my $2.99.  One of the few DC books worth my time.
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #29 (IDW): I don’t know, maybe.  I really enjoyed “City Fall”–and not only because of Mateus Santolouco’s artwork, surprisingly enough; so, I’m actually leaning toward yes.  At least a flip-through, right?
TMNT #29

TMNT #29

  • A Voice in the Dark #2 (Image): #1 was mostly tedious, but Taylor has twisted my arm with a pretty terrific plot twist.  I want to–I have to!–see it play out.  Man, it’s the same problem I have when it comes to watching any cop show: if I watch the first two minutes, I’m stuck for the full sixty–even if I’ve never seen an episode of that particular show before.  Such a sucker!
  • Black Science #2 (Image): Surprise!  Remender’s playing with dimensions.  Oh, sorry: Yay!  If I end up buying it, it’ll be definitive proof that I have no self control.
  • East of West #8 (Image): Hickman’s been east of efficient in his storytelling.  That’s not a fault; in fact, I appreciate his frugality–especially considering how much reading I have to do!
  • Mind the Gap #16 (Image): One of my favorites is back with Act II.  I can’t wait to see how McCann and crew outdo themselves.  It’ll be tough, though, especially after the brilliant dueling-artist dual-narrative that closed out Act I.  Highest of expectations.
Mind the Gap #16

Mind the Gap #16

  • Saga #17 (Image): Guaranteed goodness.
  • Ten Grand #6 (Image): Dragged down–waaaaaaay down–by Templesmith’s departure.  More than likely, I’ll pass on it.  Sad, too, because I had finally gotten into it.
  • Zero #4 (Image): An amazing three-issue run to kick off the series.  Yeah, there’s a 0% chance of my missing this one; in fact, I’d give up my left arm for a copy!  Can’t wait to drink up another 24 pages of Ales Kot’s creative juices.
  • All-New X-Men #20 (Marvel): Hey, it is what it is.
  • Daredevil #34 (Marvel): I’m looking forward to the end of the run–just not sure if it’s for the right reasons.
  • X-Men #8 (Marvel): Bringing on the Dodsons was as genius a move as can be.  They’re perfect for this book.  It’s keeping me around, that’s for sure.
X-Men #8

X-Men #8

  • Department of Monsterology #3 (Renegade Arts): I loved #2.  Looking forward to seeing what they’ve got in store for us this time around.
Department of Monsterology #3

Department of Monsterology #3

  • Eternal Warrior #4 (Valiant): So far, so good.
  • The Extinction Parade #4 (Avatar): I’ve been picking it up for my wife.  Yeah, well, she hasn’t read #2 yet.  I’m caught up, though.  Nothing special.
  • Hit #4 (BOOM!): The solid hard-boiled crime drama from Bryce Carlson and Vanesa Del Rey comes to a close.
Hit #4

Hit #4

  • The Midas Flesh #1 (BOOM!): Time for another adventure from Ryan North!  Sounds fun!  I mean, everything he’s touched so far has turned to gold, right?
  • X-O Manowar #20 (Valiant): I was really surprised by–and really liked–Cary Nord’s artwork on #19.  Hoping to get more of the same here.

What are you looking forward to this week?

Turning pages,

Scott

Impressions: New York Comic Con

21 Monday Oct 2013

It’s been just over a week since the New York Comic Con descended on our fair city in a whirlwind of, if not glitz and glamour, then body paint and wishful thinking. And while seven days seems hardly sufficient to digest this pop cultural smorgasbord, I nonetheless humbly offer the following  highly personal, utterly non-comprehensive account of the weekend’s festivities.

scott

Scott, my partner in crime, about to go down the rabbit hole

First of all the size. I went to one of the earlier incarnations when NYCC was still sharing space with three or so other events. In the few scant intervening years it has metastasized to fill all eighteen miles of the Jacob Javits Center. It took us twenty minutes just to get our bearings.

derek-terrordomeAnd yet (like many of the costumes there) it was still bursting at the seams. Untold masses of pilgrims winding their way from one temporary chapel of plastic tubing and garish banners to the next. Caught in a sea of spandex and fishnets amidst a cacophony of miked-up segment hosts and video game sound effects. An iridescent fusion of Arab market and downtown Tokyo. Wonderland and TerrorDome at once.

dclegocar

The show was split into six major areas that I could discern. First, something called ‘The Block’. The name, suggestive of the title of HBO’s latest foray into the penal system, is perhaps not apt for anyone whose sensibilities have a volume setting under ’11’. Truly one’s senses were assaulted by an endless array of toys, gadgetry, accessories, statues, t-shirts and miscellanea, mostly of the mash/up or ironic kind (sidenote: if irony has spawned an entire industry, does it cease to be ironic?). In other words this was the place for high-octane (in your best Mel Brooks/Yogurt voice): ‘Merchandising! Merchandising! Merchandising!’ In keeping with my general skepticism, and appreciation for comics history, I referred to this place as ‘The Blech‘.

derek-southparkNot to be outdone, we next had the main exhibition space. This is where the publishers (and some major retailers) set up shop. This was nominally more interesting; at least this had something to do with comics, what with with editors, assistants and the occasional creator manning the booths. But what really seemed to be emphasized were the corporate bona-fides (‘synergy’ if you so choose) and the big events needed to prop them up (Look! It’s that car from “S.H.I.E.L.D”!) So, again the Aesthetic of the Exclamation Point reigned: bigger,better,faster,shinier. Sure there were islands of interest; an unknown publisher, a hard-to-find book.  But ultimately we were fleas in a thousand-ring circus.

derek-shieldcar

Am I being sarcastic? Or does some part of me think it’s kinda….cool?

There was the autograph section, with all the personality of an airplane hanger, housing long undulating queues of people clutching Hulk Hogan dolls.

The Food Court offered a range of selections from grease-bomb heart attack to actually edible. Its central location made logistical sense I suppose. But it did throw into high relief the outlying relegation of what were, after all, the two most interesting areas: the Panels and Artist’s Alley.

Perhaps it was too much to expect of a four day event that the panels would be ensconced in more attractive surroundings. But given the hyperventilating visuals of the Main Floor, the Spartan look of the panel rooms and attendant waiting area stood in stark contrast. Imagine an unused hockey rink with giant, unfinished cubicles, and you start to get the idea. But no matter; this was where you could hear creative minds wax creatively, expounding on craft, influence, the politics of the day, etc. (OK, maybe the Sonic the Hedgehog and Mega Man panel don’t quite fit this bill)

Some personal highlights:

-Greg Rucka’s political rant during the Lazarus panel, in which he got visibly angry at, among other things, the surveillance state, the highjacking of Washington DC, the ever-increasing power of the oligarchy, and mass manipulation by the media. He seemed to be aware of the danger of putting too much of this stuff in the comic, thereby risking alienating his audience; but I say caution be damned! I wanna see more of that! Michael Lark, on the other hand, perfectly played the comic foil to Rucka’s histrionics with well-timed barbs puncturing any impending pomposity. Best moment: Rucka, bemoaning current security practices, explaining to his audience just how easy it would have been for him to kill everyone in the room. Lark, not missing a beat, slowly backed away.

rucka/lark

The comedy stylings of Rucka and Lark

–CBLDF: Raising a Reader – A panel on the educational value of reading comics that managed to be informative and entertaining, featuring current rising stars of comic kid-lit Jennifer Holm and Matthew Holm (Babymouse), Colleen AF Venable (Guinea Pig), Matt Phelan (Bluffton), child literacy expert Meryl Jaffe, and indie comics icon Larry Marder (Tales of the Beanworld). The roundtable discussion covered the current boom in childrens’ comics (after a long dearth of such material), advocated for comics in the classroom to promote literacy, and defended against the charge that comics “dumb down” readers. Particularly insightful was Eric Wight (Frankie Pickle) recounting his experiences in using comics not just to get kids reading, but to help them write, focusing the type of visual storytelling skills that are becoming increasingly important in this day and age. The panel wrapped with some of the featured creators demonstrating a useful idea-generating exercise, while taking direction from a child in the audience.

Finally, there was Artist’s Alley, with all the ghettoization the name implies. Far off the main exhibition space, and sharing a floor with the coat check, this was nonetheless the place to be. Here, after all, were the very creators upon whose talents Comic Con, and much of the entertainment industry, is built upon. Those, in other words, who put the Comic in Comic Con. (Without them it’s just one Big Con.) And quite a who’s who of artists, writers and editors it was; everyone from Adam Hughes to Yanick Paquette available to converse, debate, and of course, promote. Our man Scott chatted up Peter Tomasi on the current state of the Bat-universe. We drooled over Matt Kindt’s original art. And we spent some time with table-mates Jeff Stokely (Six-Gun Gorilla) and Vanesa Del Rey (Hit). (Really enjoyed talking process with Stokely. Nice to see a relatively young artist who still gets ink under his fingernails. I’ve got nothing against digital art – how could I in the age of Fiona Staples? – but there’s something so beautifully tactile about pages with nib scratches and ink splatter.)

Of course, I can’t end an essay about Comic Con without mentioning what, for many, is its raison d’etre: the costumes. The make-up, the wigs, the giant wings, the giant-er artillery, the latex, the leotards – body type be damned! I viewed these hodge-podge concoctions with a mixture of admiration for the inventiveness (and in some cases, even artistry) that went into their creation, and a tugging sadness at the willful obliviousness involved in transforming oneself into a walking advertisement for something one doesn’t even own. The elaborate artifice employed to faithfully mimic a favorite characters held just a whiff of desperation. And yet, there was a disarming innocence about these folks. And they seemed, by and large, to be having fun; posing, taking pictures with fellow cos-players; in short, being seen. In fact, they’ve adopted the ethos of Comic Con so thoroughly – big, brash, ridiculous, corporate, with an undercurrent of genuine creativity – that they’ve become the perfect metaphor for it.

-exodus

Exodus

And so, New York Comic Con, you three-hundred pound gal in a Catwoman costume, I bid you adieu. You bewilder me, you repulse me, you intrigue me.

See you next year.

Probably.

Yours in Comics,

Derek

Kickin’ off Comictober commodiously:

  • Occultist #1 (Dark Horse): Even though I’m off Revival as of #14, I don’t see why I shouldn’t give Seeley and Norton another shot.
  • Hinterland #1 (DC/Vertigo): Now this has the hook and the look of a Vertigo book.
Hinterland #1

Hinterland #1

  • Trillium #3 (DC/Vertigo): Lemire set a high bar for himself with a remarkable #1; and wouldn’t you know it took the slacker a whole month to clear it!  That’s right: I thought #2 was even better than the now-famous flip book!  So, if I’m doing the math correctly, this one’s going to blow my mind!  And earn a bunch more exclamation points, too!
  • Bedlam #9 (Image): Unless this one leaves me feeling the way I feel after reading a top-tier book, I’m done.  No sense in hanging on anymore.
  • Lazarus #4 (Image): #3 was our #1 book for August, so you know I’m looking forward to this.  As engaging a series as you’re going to find.
Lazarus #4

Lazarus #4

  • Mara #6 (Image): Been waiting for this one for what feels like forever.  Here’s what I thought of the brilliant #5.
  • Mind the Gap #15 (Image): For the last two issues, McCann, Esquejo, and McDaid have been the comic book equivalent of Crosby, Stills, and Nash.  Masterfully layered with a twist of sublime.
  • All-New X-Men #17 (Marvel): The real battle is between my OCD and my better judgment.
  • Captain America: Living Legend #1 (Marvel): Andy Diggle hasn’t impressed me very much, but I’m going to buy this darned thing anyway.  Aaaaargh!  I’m absolutely desperate for a good Cap story.  Give it to me, man!
Captain America: Living Legend #1

Captain America: Living Legend #1

  • Marvel Knights: Spider-Man #1 (Marvel): Yet another panel of the counterpane Matt Kindt has tossed over top the industry.  Maybe–just maybe–we’ll get a good Spidey story out of the deal.
  • Codename Action #2 (Dynamite): Oh, why not?  Guess that makes me Codename Sucker.
  • The Mocking Dead #2 (Dynamite): Flesh-eating fun!  Look out, folks: no one is safe from Fred Van Lente and his biting writing!  He’s more dangerous than the undead!
The Mocking Dead #2

The Mocking Dead #2

  • Quantum and Woody #4 (Valiant): Just when I thought I was going to drop my first Valiant title, Jason Asmus and Tom Fowler hit a high note with the E.R.A.  That’s right: stupid just got clever–and just in time!  It’s got my vote!
  • Shadowman #11 (Valiant): I’m always a bit wary of a holiday special–especially a Halloween special; screams “filler issue,” dunniit?  Now that‘s scary!
  • God Is Dead #2 (Avatar): Certainly can’t say this one’s on par with The Manhattan Projects or East of West–not after one issue, anyway; that wouldn’t be fair, would it?  Well, if I can’t say it after #2, then this book, I swear to God, is dead to me.
  • Uber #6 (Avatar): Kieron Gillen is killin’ it–and everything else!  Hey, it’s OK: it’s an Avatar book.  Seriously, though: this has been very good–much better than I expected it to be.
Uber #6

Uber #6

  • Hit #2 (BOOM!): Expected baseball analogy: after one at-bat, Bryce Carlson and crew are batting 1.000.  Recalling the end of #1: this time around, let’s see how they handle the curve ball.

What are you looking forward to tomorrow?

Turning pages,

Scott

All-New X-Men, Avatar, Battle Royale, BOOM!, Brian Michael Bendis, Bryce Carlson, Caanan White, Carlos Magno, Codename Action, Comeback, Daredevil: Dark Nights, David Lapham, DC, Deathmatch, Di Amorim, Dynamite, Ed Brisson, God Is Dead, Hit, Howard Chaykin, Image, James Asmus, Jeff Lemire, Johnnie Christmas, Jonathan Hickman, Justin Jordan, Kieron Gillen, Lord of the Flies, Marvel, Matt Fraction, Paul Jenkins, Quantum and Woody, Satellite Sam, Shadowman, Sheltered, Stuart Immonen, Tom Fowler, Trillium, Uber, Valiant, Vanesa Del, Vertigo, X-Men: Battle of the Atom

An odd week: I’ll be picking up more books from BOOM! and Avatar–two each–than I will be from DC–a lonely one.  If you’re keeping score: I’m avoiding the onslaught of villain books–because nothing good can come of that!

  • Trillium #2 (DC/Vertigo): Like a sweet bouquet bought and bestowed just because, #1 surprised and satisfied.  Felt like a labor of love and read that way, too.  Looking forward to this.
Trillium #2

Trillium #2

  • Satellite Sam #3 (Image): Easily one of my favorite new titles.  The team of Fraction and Chaykin is shakin’ and bakin’ a sinful delight in stunning black and white.  That’s the truth!
  • Sheltered #3 (Image): All the uneasiness of Lord of the Flies, Battle Royale, and similar adolescent survivalist fiction.  Sadly, smacks of reality, too.  How scary is that?  Seems Brisson’s making up for the disappointing collapse of Comeback.
  • All-New X-Men #16 (Marvel): Getting into the Battle of the Atom.  Gosh, I hope that’s good news.  In the Battle of the Bendis X-Books, however, this title’s taken a backseat–especially after the last issue of Uncanny X-Men.
  • Daredevil: Dark Nights #4 (Marvel): I liked Lee Weeks’ arc a lot, but this is going to be a Comic Day decision.
  • X-Men: Battle of the Atom #1 (Marvel): I really, really hope this is good.  Maybe if enough of us hope together we can make it so.  Of late, however, Marvel crossovers, unfortunately, have been impervious to hope.
X-Men: Battle of the Atom #1

X-Men: Battle of the Atom #1

  • Codename Action #1 (Dynamite): Why not?
  • Uber #5 (Avatar): I never expected to be this far in, mainly because I didn’t expect much from Gillen; God, I hated his Uncanny X-Men.  But it’s undeniable: Uber‘s been very good.  If you haven’t been following along, keep an eye out for the upcoming trade.
Uber #5

Uber #5

  • Hit #1 (BOOM!): It just so happens I am a fan of Criminal.  So, if the pitch is to be believed, “Hit is the series for [me]!”  Hmm.  Seems like it may also be a Left Coast version of Red Team.
  • Quantum and Woody #3 (Valiant): If this one doesn’t do it for me, I’m off.  All the other Valiant books were must-buys after two issues; this one hasn’t followed suit.
  • Shadowman #10 (Valiant): One of those Valiant must-buys.
  • Deathmatch #9 (BOOM!): Jenkins is killing it–and plenty of heroes–on a monthly basis.  Another one of those books that you should be reading if you aren’t already.
  • God Is Dead #1 (Avatar): The name at the top–above God, even–is all the reason I need.
God Is Dead #1

God Is Dead #1

  • American Vampire Vol. 4 TPB (DC/Vertigo): Finally!!!!!!!!!!

What are you looking forward to tomorrow?
