You'd think you would call out the song they simply cannot seem to move away from, yet it seems to go oddly unmentioned in many a review of this…

This is the second time I've seen these covers referenced and the second time they've been terrible. I'm sure they're flattering, Ryan, but they aren't good.

"this past summer"

If you're hoping for that—like I was—this will be MONSTROUSLY disappointing, as it's nothing of the sort. It takes immense liberties and suffers, instead of deliberate anachronism, casual and incidental ones constantly.

It's a shame that band Can never recorded another song before or after "Vitamin C", though.

Coming out of issue 12 of Hip Hop Family Tree this has been pretty intensely disappointing, though largely based on expectation, and the seismic shift from the portrayal of the early days of hip hop as I've most recently seen them depicted (which felt, as it is a more historical/researched work, a little more like a…

Maybe it's a reference to the SNL skit he was in!

For the record, this isn't going to help you with that, unless you want a *completely* fictional account.

I think you misunderstood a lot of this show including this scene. Cadillac and his associate are not heartbroken, and this makes sense for their characters. I'd be more surprised if their first thought wasn't assigning blame and covering it up. The point is to show how accustomed to violence and cold they are, not to…

Is that confirmed? I assumed that was exactly what happened, but never knew for sure…

Far be it from me to defend lots of Bendis…but I actually do say "…woof" in response to an unexpectedly weighty thing (figuratively OR literally!)

Yes. Valiant is awesome.

Yeah, I mostly forgot Dead Drop. It was so completely…"Uh….okay?" and irrelevant to everything ever that I just kinda let it be.

I suppose I should—I wasn't avoiding them on the whole "I'll refuse on principle!!" sort of grounds, I just wasn't going to pay exorbitant amounts for them.

LaFuente's art is neat but a bit misplaced (very interesting layouts and panel decisions, but distracting)—I felt the same about, well, his covers for Wrath, actually.

I pick up every Valiant book there is and have done since I came back to comics, and went backward—I've got everything but the incentive Geomancers books.

Honestly, so would I.

He has an inexplicably large fanbase. I don't understand either. But he really does.
