Re: Comic Book Fans....

Both of those graphic novels are amazing.

Since One More Day the series has been the best it has been in a while. Even though at first I hated the decision, I've really enjoyed the route they have taken. I thought it was a good sacrifice since it cleared the whole mask fiasco.

As far as MJ, you're right, something is coming as we've been teased a couple times now.
OMD has had some good stories come out of it (though i still hate HOW its come around). 600 was as awesome as i thought it would be, especially with the interactions between Spidey and the (Real) Avengers and Wolverine. (Pop a Claw. In your ***) and i was right about MJ, and i hope to god it doesn't end up something stupid that Quesada has in his head (though next year's(!) storyline "TheGauntlet" is gonna be badass.)

One last thing though, i don't know where i stand in regards to Doc Ock's new look...one one hand it makes sense, but on the other its ugly.

Re: Comic Book Fans....

Has anyone read the new Batman graphic novel out? At least I think it's new...I saw it in Barnes and Nobles the other day.

Don't remember the title or anything, but it was the one where Batman dies and all of the villains are paying their "respects" to him by telling stories?

"Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader" It was a 2 part story in Batman and Detective Comics between Final Crisis and Battle for the Cowl that Neil Gaiman wrote. Good story, but odd. Typical Gaiman basically.

I just got to 600 as my issue didn't arrive till today. Late... but it was worth the wait because as you mentioned, EPIC stuff all around.

I figured MJ would be back but I didn't think it would be at the end of 600. Can't wait till 601.

As far as Doc Ock's new look, I'm on the same boat as it is interesting but as you mentioned, looks kind of ugly. Really interested to see where they go with Doc from here on out.

Thanks, yama! I gotta check and see if it's out. I loooooove my colorist.
You're incredibly talented. I've been dabbling with character artwork since I was little, but I'm so envious of you.
