Drop any recs you have for anglo comics in here and I’ll see if I want to check them out. Also I put this in chat because it’s not manga so I can’t put it in anime.
Superman: Son of Kal-El is about Superman’s cool bisexual antifa son, Superman.
Like the sound of that.
It’s pretty good
Hellboy/BPRD are great big commitment tho.
Thanks for reminding me, I had some Hellboy comics years back and I enjoyed them.
Saga is good
Ah yeah the author of that is slanted to do the story for the live action Gundam movie iirc. Thanks!
Oh neat I didn’t know that!
So the trouble with “Fables” is the author is a reactionary Zionist. It’s a very cool concept though, if you’re into fairy tales/folklore in a modern setting.
Read and liked, space/sci-fi oriented: Planetary, Fantastic Four by Jonathan Hickman, Annihilation, Annihilation Conquest
Haven’t read but heard they’re good: Gotham Central, Silver Surfer by Slott & Allred, Uncanny X-Force by Rick Remender
Mark Russell does some good political satire and Tom Taylor does good action/pacing/character work. I like Jim Starlin’s ‘psychedelic space fantasy’ style as well.
I eventually got around to reading “Y: The Last Man” after trying to watch the live action adaption on Hulu a year or two ago. It was a pretty good read that was surprisingly normal compared to the live action version.
I’ve been meaning to dig around the internet for “Iredeemable” and “Incorruptible” to see how those turned out. (Iredeemable - what if Superman says “fuck the world” and proceeds to wreck everything and its up to his former super friends and villians to figure out how to deal with him. Incorruptible - happens in the same world as Iredeemable, a former super villain sees the hell Superman is up to and decides to try to help the people around him however he can.)
Umbrella Academy, was a fairly fast read through from start to finish. Gave me the same vibes as reading Hellboy, BPRD stuff.
