What happened there?

Out of morbid curiosity what does?

Definitely true but I'd also want to give credit to inker Danny Miki and colourist Fco Plascencia. Those two take artwork that's already compelling in its own right and bring it to a whole new level.

That's interesting. The most notable thing I found about the collection was that at the beginning of each issue, there would a page length essay about the people involved in creating the story. It made the book feel like a true artifact of its time.

I liked that series as well. Premise aside I thought it was a good story about a group of fighters trying to overcome impossible odds.

Trashed by Derf Backderf- I really enjoyed this. It was a nice slice of life comic that provided interesting facts about the garbage industry, which I thought was a great touch. Garbage collection is definitely one of those jobs lots of people would take for granted, so to read a book that looked at what the job would…

Christian Ward's art on ODY-C is amazing and is definitely the most consistent highlight in that series. That said at one point in the series he started doing all his work digitally, as opposed to earlier issues where he would do line work in pencil. I have no problem with artists doing work digitally but I feel that…

I haven't kept up either, due to other things I want to read. I am interested in BKV's other series Paper Girls, mostly for the Cliff Chiang artwork.

I had to read the first volume of Saga for a university course on science fiction. It's amazing how compelling it can be. I think a lot of it has to do with it the way it introduces certain space opera tropes and then subverts them.

Daniel Craig as some kind of veteran warrior.

ComicsAlliance actually wrote a piece that was inspired by what you originally wrote, and one that elaborates on the other kinds of issues that affect the sales of diverse books. More or less what you labeled in point 5 and 6.

It's definitely worth a read, not least because it is a good…

I would definitely recommend Perez's omnibus. Also Sensation Comics featuring Wonder Woman is a great anthology title.

There's this really sense of softness to her work, like it gives the line work this distinct texture. It's not easy for me to describe exactly why I like its effect and why I think it really stands out.

Glad to see Jordie Bellaire nominated, her work in They're not like Us and Injection is phenomenal. Also pleasantly surprised to see The Legend of Wonder Woman and Ladykiller among the list of nominees.

That's a good point; I'm not a fan of The Walking Dead series or Fables but that didn't stop me from enjoying their Telltale series.

Making Comics by Scott McCloud- I thought this was more interesting and insightful than Understanding Comics. Not that the latter was bad or anything far from it; its just I felt MC went into considerably more depth into the way comics work. I have to admit, I do find that the way McCloud classify things can be a bit…

In addition to the aforementioned Transformers vs G.I.JOE I would suggest ODY-C and The Goddamned.

I've been doing the video game equivalent of binge watching the Mass Effect series. I acquired the PS3 trilogy bundle, play all through ME1 for the first time, and I am now about more then halfway through ME2 for the second time. It's really cool to import your own character from ME1 and it’s even better when you get…

I have been curious about Tales from Borderlands. The fact that it plays well to people who are not even remotely familiar with the original series is quite reassuring.

I've played Wolf Among Us three times. I absolutely love that game. What do you think of it?
