I fucking hate that book. Lamest suicide pact ever.

Paul Smith is the fucking balls. His figures are amazing, and he drew (draws?) maybe my favorite backgrounds ever. I want to live in Mariko and Logan's apartment from Uncanny #172.
Silvestri gets some flak in a lot of X-Men retrospectives for indulging in some cheesecake, but I don’t think that’s warranted. The occasional “sexy pose” showed up, but more often he just drew good-looking people, and it’s a lot easier to forgive a slice of cheesecake when the artist is also incredibly adept at…
If I recall, Bumgarner has arguably been one of the best hitting pitchers in baseball this decade (non-Ohtani Division.) For that reason, I had kinda hoped that maybe he’d have developed a more open perspective.
He can’t write characters he didn’t grow up loving, that’s the problem.

“Why not just ignore the ones you don’t like?”
So... the X-Men DON’T fight robots named after Beany & Cecil in an effort to save Jean’s life?
I admire that you went a long way for that one, so the star is for effort more than quality.
1- that stretch includes “The Winter Soldier,” so... no.
That whole final season was a mess. Whedon had some good ideas, but his head was clearly focused elsewhere (probably Firefly,) and the people who were left in charge of the show had no idea how to execute his vision without him.
Some superlative Dr Doom badassery aside, the original Secret Wars is pretty bad, too.
It started as a slow, kinda clumsy construction of a neat group of characters that was increasingly more connected. Then there was that great episode where the human bad guy is revealed to be a pretty good guy, but he sacrifices his good memories of his daughter and voluntarily becomes a real bad guy because it’s the…
The biggest problem with the Seinfeld finale was that it was just a clip show, with maybe fifteen minutes of new material (and a lot of that was just wasted on returning characters walking into the courtroom.) Finishing a show with a greatest hits montage isn’t a capital crime, but it was made even worse by the fact…
He's living proof that "cranky" doesn't necessarily mean "asshole."
Good boy, Hank!
They could tank at the box office and still be worth Disney's time. Their primary goal is to keep the name Disney synonymous with fairytales. No one's allowed to make a Cinderella or Arabian Nights because people will keep comparing it to the Disney version(s). Or ask Coppola how his attempt to make a Ponocchio movie…
Any excuse to bring this back into the public eye:
“I just told him, ‘that’s what little dudes do.’” (pause) “I mean, we ALL do it."
