Hey guys, NPR is covering the Marvel Civil War.
you can go listen it here, the audio will be avaliable around 6PM Eastern Time. >.> I missed the later part of the interview. >.> http://www.npr.org/templates/story/s...toryId=5376903 There's nowhere I can't reach. |

the whole idea of this just sounds kind of.......lame.
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Why is it lame? I think that it's great. It's a much better concept than Infinite Crisis.
I was speaking idiomatically. |
Becuase it is. It sounds like the government is making them register their id and some heros agree, and others do not. Why is that a civil war? So becuase they disagree over a piece of legislation, they're going to fight over it?
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Uhh... you obviously don't understand this thing. It's much more than that. It's about an idea, a way of life. The government is going to hunt down those heroes that do not abide by the law using other heroes to do the job.
Just read the first issue, you'll understand. It was a great book btw. The art is amazing and the writing was up there with his Ultimates stuff. FELIPE NO |
I'll concede to that. I haven't picked up a new comic in probably over 5 years, though I still check up on what's going on. Is this the book by Joe Mad? He was always one of my favorite artists.

The first issue is alright. I wasn't expecting much, so I wasn't disappointed. Storyline-wise it's pretty standard stuff, nothing we haven't been expecting for the last few months. Art-wise it's definitely better than Infinite Crisis, but it all looks too smooth for my liking, like it was airbrushed to death. I dunno. Iron Man v4 has the same feel to it. Some people may like it, some people may not, but it certainly isn't my cup of tea.
Jam it back in, in the dark.

I love the art. I don't like how Marvel basically told us what was in the issue before it got here though. At least they haven't spoiled the rest of the series yet.

It was sort of interesting, yes. But the proposed legislation wasn't as bad as I thought. Vacation pay, a pension, a fed ID... just like SHIELD agents. Methinks they be making mountains out of molehills though.

The art rocks. I really adore McNiven's art, although sometimes the faces don't look right. But still, his angles for his panels are great. As for issue #1, I enjoyed the part where Cap busted out of S.H.I.E.L.D.... nobody messes with the Cap.
heh. but the new BPRD overshadowed this, IMO How ya doing, buddy? |
BPRD?
McNiven's art was amazing. I can only imagine what the crazy fights in future issues will look like. I was speaking idiomatically. |

This Civil War seems a bit eerie to me. Through this, I've been able to draw at least five different parallels between the Big Three of Marvel and the First Triumvirate of the Roman Republic. I have to rearrage some traits, like the one dying not being the wealthy one, but it still works. I guess this means Cap dies when the whole thing's over.

There is no way that Marvel is going to kill Captain America. Well, then again, Millar did say that he wanted the death to be meaningful... maybe you're on to something.
FELIPE NO |

Keep in mind, Caesar didn't die until after the civil war was over. Though, if Marvel killed Cap, they could continue the parallels and have him become some sort of god. Steve Rogers: God of Democracy.

Read Civil War #1 and Infinite Crisis #7 in the same day.
I can definately see which is going to be the winner already. Miller is getting to the point and showing us what we want. He's not bringing in 12536 D-list characters in an effort to jerk off the 4 fanboys that actually give a shit about them. Also McNiven needs to be on more books now. Jam it back in, in the dark. GI Joe is the codename for America's highly trained special mission force. Its purpose: to defend human freedom against COBRA. A ruthless terrorist organization determined to rule the world. 24 can't jump the shark. Jack Bauer ate the shark long ago. Now 24 can only jump the water, and that doesn't mean anything. - Jazzflight <Krizzzopolis> acid you are made of win. <Dissolution> And now my god damn scissors are all milky |
Millar is just great. I need to read everything that this man has written. He has been on such a good streak lately.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
You want to read Wanted! that is a good series

I'm not sure about McNiven's art, yet. Maybe it has to grow on me or something. It was just sort of uninspiring for me. Spoiler:
How ya doing, buddy? |
What did you not like about the recent Ultimate FF stuff? I've loved the book ever since Millar jumped aboard. Haven't they announced that Reed and Sue were going to be on opposite sides of this thing? I was speaking idiomatically. |

Huntress: So what are you wearing?
The Question: Blue overcoat. Fedora. Huntress: You really stink at this. The Question: ...Orange socks? |

Captain America won't make it as a super-hero, if he were created today.
Think about it. A scrawny guy gets an injection, and develops secksy muscles. Illegal steroids anyone? How ya doing, buddy? |
