loved this article so much i went ahead and clicked on several of the ads

And The Walking Dead is a book that gets people in the door in the first place, like SAGA. There are a lot of folks who go to comic shops for their weekly Marvel Zombie gigantic pull— but there are also a lot of folks who only walk in that door for one of these gigantic titles, and then pick other stuff up in addition…

uhhh the comment you’re responding to is not about “plot holes”

No, a recent action comics arc concluded that subplot

I was surprised, because it sounded like they were going to set up Snoke as having an actual backstory.

casual fans find it easier to believe that Han Solo is Hella Old and the Empire secretly existed when Palpatine was still just a senator, than The Scary Dude Didn’t Die?

they focused so much on half of him being a robot-man specifically for the people that didn’t follow the EU or new canon Animated series. The movie practically shouted “hey, you know that guy that was cut in half? He’s ok because that half is a robot now! IT’S THAT GUY FROM BEFORE AND HE SECRETLY SURVIVED UNTIL NOW.…

I understand. At the *very* least, skipping over the one controversial writer’s name in the list in order to avoid letting your reader’s know that you’re recommending they buy a Shitty Dude’s book is a bit questionable (even if recommending said dude’s Great Book is not)

It’s *EXTREMELY* weird anyone would write this article and bring up Max’s biography, but not Mary Karr’s actual memoir addressing this period, including, extensively, DFW’s behavior. I mean, come on folks. Obviously we want to support her art, not the art of the people this article is criticizing, right? At least…

Agreed with pretty much all of the above— but Millar’s Adventures of Superman issues are weirdly lacking in his typical misanthropy.

Not mentioning Max Landis’ name doesn’t make including his work on a list like this any less problematic.

Is.... is dead a verb now?

io9 really shouldn’t be repeating the lie that ToysRus execs have put out about the reasons for closing when it’s been made clear that it’s actually closing thanks to some awful moves by the vulture capitalists that took it over and drove it into debt.

I mean, Jesus, it’s like these people haven’t seen Ep 6

Clickbait? The title is about the Last Jedi making clear certain rules in Star Wars. The article features a video which explains just that. “Clickbait” doesn’t mean “things I Don’t like.”

this site really loves to make money via getting clicks on minor stories concerning very popular scifi and fantasy franchises. That is its whole deal.

You deserve the notifications. Even if you hadn’t commented before reading the article, you’d still be bitching about the fact that a director still enjoys talking about a movie after it’s left theaters.

Well, this article is about a documentary on the new release of the film. I think Rian Johnson talked about the film in this documentary because it was part of his job?

Weird headline. It’s “Wild” that the Joker movie might adapt part of a well known Joker story?

More cynical take: they didn’t even bother to watch it.
