I'm glad that someone did something good with Kraven but undoing a character's definitive ending is still bad.
It doesn't help that Grim Hunt was Edge: The Comic.

Spencer knew it and once he got his hands on the Spidey line, gave him a fitting ending.
The truth is, both men had a positive and negative effect on their respective companies, and while we can point to specific decisions in either direction, we'll never truly know the full scope of their impact.
But I admit, I disliked some of the specific decisions that both made that we concretely know about.
I wanna see that Legion pitch.
The thing is Axel approved characters who are now icons...and also approved the Inhumans are X-Men push.
But yeah, Didio is is odd one because I'm not sure who he approved of other than Jamie Reyes. Jessica Cruz?
Jaime, Jessica, New Super-Man, Jon Kent, the entire DC career of Tom King, Shazam Family, both black Bat-people (Signal and Batwing), Batwoman.
There may have been some issues in the handling, especially Batwoman, but they were under his tenure.
Snyder's Batman contributions alone are top-tier all time. Court of Owls has staying power.
Bendis Daredevil is such a crazy tonal shift for the book, I'm shocked Marvel even kept the issue numbering at the time.
That said, I also love how much lip service it pays to prior runs so far as well(well, only the Miller, and short Smith/Mack run at least so far). It feels and mostly looks so different its hard to even imagine this being in the same universe sometimes. Strong start with the early arcs I've dipped into though.

I only read the two DD Miller Omni's and the 15-ish issues that make up Kevin Smith and David Mack's run leading right into Bendis. So there is a gap of like a decade of DD I didn't touch(Nocenti?)
Yea it was nuts. The art alone really brought home going from the 90s style comics to the dark and gritty tone of the 2000s after Ultimates. And I guess it never lets up again until the Mark Waid run.
I really want to go back and check out the Nocentti stuff especially. Then Joe Kelly did a shortrun while also starting his Deadpool series, which I'm curious about. But man will it be hard going back after lol.
Yea I'm curious myself, but it's a lot to add to a read list.
Did you start vol 2 of Bendis yet?
Invisible Kingdom's start is not bad at all!
Been wanting this. Is it sold out already or is it just early releases being sold for a markup.

Thanks!
It feels like Didio had a ton of bad shit accredited to him.
Whether its all his fault we will probably never know, I just hope things don't get worse with him gone.
I feel DC is not in a great place at the moment, but things could always be worse.

I'm on like the 2nd to last arc in vol 1. Just got vol 2 in the mail today.
I think Nocenti created Typhoid Mary. But yea it's a lot to go through, and I want to start Brubaker's run next.
Welp, looks like White Knight is getting three action figures. Is it time to admit its good?
Please no...
Please no...
That's it. I warned you. Calling the keyboard cops now.
There is a swathe of people that would take umbrage with that statement.

You both misunderstood. I'm saying having merch like action figures doesn't mean something is good.
I love this run to bits, you're in for a treatI received my package today. I can't wait to start reading these.
I think the thing is that the Big Two aren't like other companies because they're IPs that are constantly being worked on by multiple people. It's a lot more fluid and less permanent. To be honest, that's what I find appealing about it. "Follow the creators, not the characters," has been my ideal for awhile now except for a select few properties because I'm just like that. People testing their ideas on characters, though those characters still have their own identities. Sometimes stuff does stick, but then sometimes it doesn't. Carol Danvers is still Captain Marvel. We'll see how long Thor stays King of Asgard this time. While Ock as Spider-Man wasn't gonna happen because I don't believe it was Slott's plan for that, and Lex being Superman was never gonna be for long because it's really not his character. He's always been power hungry and that's just the next thing he finds his "meaning" in. Same with Perpetua.
Returning Doom to a villain? Yeah that sucked, but like I said some stuff sticks and some doesn't. Some makes sense and some doesn't. Honestly it's like life. Sometimes people fuck up and backtrack. But think about it: How many Robins are on their own now? Harley's fully emancipated from Joker now, and she's much closer to hero than she ever was before. We have stuff that has stuck, though small. It's happened over the years and I know it's not necessarily as satisfactory as what you're saying, but it's there.
Baby steps are steps at least
Oh baby!
It works BECAUSE 2000AD is a "tiny little comic" (never forget that Rebellion ended up buying the whole thing because it worked out cheaper for them than only licensing Dredd for the Dredd vs. Death game). It has way fewer masters to serve. The person at Rebellion whose actual job description is approving the lunchbox designs or some shit is not going to stick their oar in and demand Dredd and Anderson bang because it'll play great with a new demo they want to reach.
I didn't know Asano changed his method from the photography style he used to do. That way is also super cool. Fascinating.Damn this is cool. Asano using Unreal engine to lay out his backgrounds.

That can't be true. Demon's is much less SAD than Pun. But I can see misery on the horizon.

Back when there were only, like, 3 volumes of DDDDDDDD I said that it was super happy but now it's almost all sadness. Asano tricked me.

IT WENT SOUR
He's working on a page in that video that can't end well lol.
I can't deal with the stress and pressure of the end of the last volume.
Don't hurt Kadode you fuck.
Also I thought vol 3 was super sad. That's the volume with the tragedy right :(

It's time to accept that Asano will always hurt us with his incredible works. They start off happy and cutesy and then turn real sour lol. I love him.
I can't read the last volume and a half of Pun Pun. I'm terrified of what will happen to Aiko. Poor Sachi too.

I know a few people were interested in that Wonder Woman board game from Ravensburger. Game Informer did a write-up.

Invisible Kingdom v1 was pretty decent! An interesting set up for the universe and I liked the twist at the end of v1. But I am not really sure where they could take it from here? In for v2 though.
