For all his occasional stumbles, he'll still go down as one of the greatest Spider-Man writers of all time. He took big swings and will be remembered for the more successful ones. He doesn't have a Sins Past or One More Day to tarnish his legacy on the book, though some periods of his long run - like the current one -

The ongoing Doc Ock plotline is actually my favorite thing about the book still. It's shocking that Slott has been telling this story ever since ASM #600 way back in 2009. That is downright Claremontian long term plotting that you don't see anywhere else - probably because very few writers are given long runs on

It's been a long time since I read it, but I remember being shocked because it was the first time I actually thought the horsemen were a legitimate threat. Opena's art did a lot to sell the horror in how they used their powers. It did a great job of establishing the stakes and tone for the series.

I've been away on vacation, but I snuck in time for Saga Vol. 7 before I left. I really enjoy how the main crew is starting to become a very diverse group, similar to the Avengers or even the Fast and Furious family in terms of the different skills and backgrounds brought to the table. Generally, the series is still

A real waste of a great Tim Roth performance and some truly astounding makeup.

I haven't rewatched those first two Scream movies in a long time, but it'd be tough knowing how much of an unlikable douche Jamie Kennedy turned out to be. Randy was the fan favorite character from those movies, god damn it! He was a film nerd. He was supposed to be us!

I'm an apologist for Spider-Man 3, but I still remember the opening night showing for that movie in my college town. People had bought tickets weeks in advance and this was back in the day when you still had to line up for 1-2 hours to get good seats for a huge event like this one. The audience applauded the opening

He was legitimately hilarious on Undeclared, with the standout episode for me being the one where he and Seth Rogen blow their money using credit cards and he has to call his grandma in a baby voice. He was also great trying to teach Jay Baruchel how to fight.

I learned more about apartheid from this book than I did in any history class I've taken. It's the only "celebrity memoir" that I would encourage being taught in schools.

Adam Scott's appearances in those episodes go in the top of ranks of entertainment he's ever done. He's just as hilarious in those as he is in Step Brothers.

I think he's the best Snyder collaborator. Capullo is obviously incredible too, but Snyder tailors the stories to a more blockbuster level to fit his sensibility. At heart, Snyder works best as a horror guy, which is brought out well in Jock's pencils. (See also: Francavilla)

At this point, the question isn't "Who's going to die next?" anymore and has moved on to "Jesus Christ, is anyone going to be alive at the end of this series?!"

Yes I don't understand the contradiction here. My older brother recently had a kid and that somehow turned me into an uncle without disrupting the time-space continuum.

Sweet cover! That X-Cons idea sounds awesome too. Lila Cheney also has to be in there somewhere too. Maybe with her own Celine Dion / Britney Spears-style Vegas residency show.

It just ended this month. Really good conclusion that felt like a planned ending, though I would have been happy if it just went on forever.

Yeah I really have no idea how they're going to write an ongoing book about this, especially since I've become very fond of this current incarnation of Kaine who sounds like he's going to be the nominal antagonist of the series. Instead we're supposed to be following this attempted mass murderer?

That Steranko story is one of the all-time greats, and I experienced a similar amount of glee when I first read it. It's a shame that Steranko recently went on a big, ugly anti-immigration rant on election day. I saw him at a convention a few weeks ago and wished I could erase it from my mind because the guy is

I'm a bit younger, but I had a similar feeling when I was working my after-school comic book job when the first Spider-Man movie came out. It was, for lack of a better term, AMAZING. I even wrote a long rambling blog post about how much I loved it, which I'm way too embarrassed to share now.

Oh, you'll also be down Moon Knight as well, since Jeff Lemire is leaving Marvel and that book is likely ending. = (

I would rate The Fade Out at about the same level as most of the Criminal stories, except The Last of the Innocent and maybe a few other standouts. I might be more of a sucker for noir tales set in Old Hollywood though, so the uniqueness of the setting probably bumped it up for me above some of the excellent by still
