 From Ressentiment, volume 2, page 22, I think. Because it's what I'm reading. While most anime and manga is pretty terrible, you occasionally get something which, like Animal Farm, dolls a current or extremely prescient theme up in just enough fantasy that you can laugh at it and, at the same time, can't help but think "Oh, wait, that's kind of really happening."

digibomb posted:Honestly, gently caress Ennis. I'm tired of that face. I'm tired of people's faces being dicks or butts. Seriously: gently caress Garth Ennis. Dude's a writer, not an artist. If the faces appear to you as dicks or butts than that is either the fault of the artist or your own desires for the faces to be dicks or butts. Now go read some old Hellblazer and develop your appreciation for drunk Irish comic book writers, or find a good therapist.

Derek Dominoe posted:I also seem to recall that there were a few comics back when that implied that Batman preferred Kyle, who he could pretty much boss around in his early days. I like to think that's because Batman is secretly a huge anime fan, putting on the costume and fighting crime allows him to cosplay, like, every single night.

Defiance Industries posted:Hawkeye's second book can be like Avenging Spider-Man, where he just teams up with a new character every issue. We can call it "Hawk and Guys." We'll make Hawk and Guys really huge and the word and really tiny. Before the bandwagon gets to heavy, ask yourself "Do I really want Hawkeye ending up as the next Deadpool?"

Defiance Industries posted:In this Imaginary Story(tm) Hawkeye's second book is ALSO the best book in the world. That is the key difference-maker. I.....see.... Ann Nocenti coming back to Marvel as a writer. I...see... Hawkeye accidentally cutting off his genitalia with a trick arrow. I...see.... the rest of the book primarily focusing on his struggles with gender and identity. It may end up being the best book, but All-beard will always be the best pirate  From Sven Soldiers of Hoekery, Gaurdian #2

You know what, yes, I am. Matters of sexism, "the artist has never actually seen a real live girl" and good taste aside, skeletal elasticity seems to be a thing in comics. Can spiders spin their heads 180 degrees? Is it o.k. because it's Jameson's paranoid delusion? I want a canonical answer to rule out the possibility that the artist doesn't understand anatomy.

Ghostlight posted:Because while keeping a character's face, and therefore expression and large source of personality and tone, visible at an angle that you really shouldn't be able to see it is a poor compositional choice, it's not quite as poor or sexist a choice as keeping a characters boobs and butt visible as those parts of the body do not perform anywhere near the same function as a face in human communication. TOTALLY ACCEPTABLE ANSWER. Thank you. Except, what about the large percentage of super heroes who keep their identity concealed behind masks?

This isn't exactly the place for it, but could someone explain the whole Deadpool/T-ray thing to me in under a paragraph? I read through all of v1 of Deadpool and that was one of the most perplexing comic experiences I've ever had. I mean, what? Is, like, T-ray the zombie corpse of Wade Wilson?

Jerusalem posted:I find the best way to think of things is that T-Ray was a psycho with a band-aid on his nose and leave it at that. You're probably right, but I can't help but think that the stolen identity thing would've played out pretty well, as the sort of grand motif for the first run of Deadpool was redemption and becoming a hero, had it come to some sort of conclusion rather than, as Gavok just illuminated me, getting scrapped, like, midway through. I should post some funny panels to make up for the derail, but the only scans I have on this computer are MLP:FiM. Anyone want to see a Blade Runner reference in a My Little Pony comic?

Jerusalem posted:I never really considered Blind Al a true nemesis of Deadpool's anyway, even though they had a hugely hosed up relationship. Or maybe I'm blinded by how much I enjoyed the "Deadpool and Blind Al travel back in time and impersonate Peter Parker and Aunt May" story I was mostly joking, but what else do you call someone who routinely swaps your sugar with salt? Man, the Blind Al "If you love something, set it free" issue totally belongs in the touching panels thread.
