  • Steveinthecity: I wonder why it's always readers that catch mistakes with art, powers, plots, continuity, uniforms, etc. and not the creators and editors?  I hope they're not secretly laughing at us. ;)

  • Steveinthecity: When Thor pulls the hammer back to throw, his momentum stops. He has always been able to float or hover once airborne, and he'll remain until the hammer comes back to him.  I guess the winds keep him aloft.

  • Biollante: ok so shouldn't Joe Quesada know that? lol  It made him look a bit stupid imo.
    May 21, 2012, 07:57:37 AM
  • Jabroniville: Yeah, that's odd- Thor usually has the Hammer out in front. Though I don't think it's ever explained how he can throw it while in mid-flight and not just plummet like a goof. I wish artists would stop having him do things like that :)
    May 21, 2012, 07:23:13 AM
  • Steveinthecity: @Biolante:  Thor uses the hammer to fly. He can throw his hammer during flight and float in one spot until the hammer returns to him. Don't know what Joe Q. was thinking there. I've never seen Thor fly on his own.

  • Biollante: Joe Quesada was drawing Thor on some Disney promo, and he drew him flying with his hammer on his side, now I'm not a Thor junkie, but isn't that actualy inaccurate, doesn't he fly by being dragged by his hammer???

  • Biollante: I'm just glad he's giving back to his fans by revisiting Blade Runner and Alien with Prometheus, I'm sure he's going to deliver too, his legacy as a film maker is on the line since those are his more iconic films

  • Biollante: aesthetics*
    May 20, 2012, 10:58:08 AM
  • Biollante: gonna be hard for anyting to catch up, Ridley Scott is pretty much the top of dark visual design imo, and he drew a lot from Moebius for that film, most fillm makers are not really connected to aestheticas of good fantasy film making in the same way

Free Comic Book Day!
« on: May 01, 2011, 07:15:11 AM »
I am going off of Comicsrod post in the shout box.  Does anyone else love FCBD?  I like it because most of the LCS has some type of sale to piggyback the event.  I am looking forward to picking up PEP.  If my LCS has any extras of the next tier, I am hoping to get John Stanley's Summer Fun, Inspector Gadget and of course, Batman/Young Justice.

Here's the list:  http://www.freecomicbookday.com/comics.asp

The LCS here has really done a great job over the past 10 years and is bringing in at least three pros to the event.  They have also announced "specials" which I suspect are going to be discounts on merchandise.  I'm not sure what I'll find, but they let you take a couple free books and you can buy as many as you want at cost following that.

There are a couple of hardcover omnibus books that I would really like and hope they offer on sale.

The LCS I go to some times will get the full array of comics and makes bags for those on their pull list.  They keep telling me to get on a pull list but I am not reading anything monthly right now.

What did everyone score today?

I got a handful of freebies and picked up some B&V Spectacular magazine style issues and American Virgin 1-4.

Darn, when is FCBD anyway?

I think that artist Norm Breyfogle has shown remarkable restraint by not having Mr. Lodge twirl his mustache in every panel as the character's evil traits become more and more defined.-Chris Cummins http://www.toplessrobot.com/2011/04/the_10_craziest_moments_from_life_with_archie_the.php

If I took a shot at writing an Archie movie, would anyone mind?
