He tries to solve problems by using everyday household items in ingenious ways, but eventually gives up and just blasts everyone with his chest bio-cannon.

Kovacs truthers.

That’s a shame - I’ve always been fascinated by Laurie’s last lines in the book, and what they mean for her future.

The Kefka laugh is taken straight from the SONIC.EXE fanmade horror game(s) that this is specifically mashing up with the movie trailer, red demon eyes and all.

Y isn’t even the best longform Vaughn has done (both Saga and even Ex Machina are better), and probably doesn’t crack the top hundred. However: Vaughn wrote a perfect first issue and a perfect last issue (with everything else diminishing rapidly the farther you get from those two issues), and that mere fact alone,…

This is typical Sam Barsanti nonsense. He’s often tapped to write these comic-book related pieces while doing absolutely no research before making lazy generalizations, as if he had a roommate five years ago who got into comics and used to summarize them to him while they got high. 

I found it to be quite the opposite: a solid middle chapter in a trilogy (the good guys are hounded almost to extinction, the bad guy came near to a breakthrough, but then doubled down on the evil, a protagonist gets to start on an uncharted path), but a clumsily paced, poorly constructed film.

God, that works so beautifully with kid’s voices.  Thank you.

Still not sure this isn’t some scheme by The Mittani

It is unfortunate that so many unique GMG visitors will end up clicking on this poorly researched article.  Surely someone at i09, where they have people who’ve actually been reading comics for more than a decade, could have written this instead?

You’re assuming good faith mistakes, when in fact the above line is merely the first sign among many that the writer has neither the historical knowledge to make such statements, nor has he done the homework to make up for that lack.

Gotta love that old Belter recipe, Cream of Scotland Yard.

One point that...leavens (but far from excuses) HPL’s horrid attitudes - throughout his work, again and again, it’s shown that humanity as a whole is pretty damn low on the totem pole of existence. We’re always depicted as, at best, blinkered, short-lived pretenders to stewardship of the planet who can’t hold a candle…
