Another good comic to read (not an ongoing) that covers superheros is DC: The New Frontier, by the late Darwyn Cooke (wonderful Canadian artist). His drawing style is way different than Ross but just as interesting. The comic covers the same kind of deconstructing and reflecting on a whole era of a superhero comic history in a short series.

If you want to read the bare minimumn (aside from not reading any, also a great choice) of superhero comics (and you do), then Kingdom Come, DC New Frontier, and Watchmen will serve you well. Don't need to read any of the ongoings.

Darwyn Cooke also did the excellent Parker: The Hunter, which isn't about superheroes at all! It's about film noir and revenge and heists. It's great.

Love this book. Have Vol1 beside me here, it's such a good one.I love any detective noir stuff. Ever read Brubaker's Criminal series? That was class.

Probably was meaning to, but I haven't read many comics in yeaaaars. Looks like a short run so I may just pick it up from the library and burn through it.

Ah yeah like I probably read it about ten years ago at this stage. I'm sure it holds up. Always liked his writing, his Daredevil run is amazing.

going to assume that comic is about how even superman loses the support of the public when he starts rocking a pony tail

How does Superman get a haircut or clip his fingernails if bullets and swords and laser beams just bounce off of him, anyway?

And anybody who doesn't find farts funny is choosing to have less joy in their life while having the same amount of farts.

He uses his lazer eyes reflected in a mirror. I'm actually pretty sure this is canon.

Look I'm just saying 99% of the time a movie drops a fart joke in it is "nonmedy" or whatever term Rich made up.

He doesn't, if he blew a load in Lois lane it's rip through her like a freight train.

I think this might have actually been in a What If? comic actually

Star Trek: The Motion Picture is a boring movie

piratepilates posted:

Kingdom Come is a great comic book that deconstructs the superhero comic genre well. It still holds up and is just as relevant 24 years later.

Alex Ross also has that cool ultra realistic look. Also he used gouache, which is pretty cool!

Alex Ross style is fine the first time you see it, but once you've seen better comic art, it's garbage. It doesn't convey action, motion, or emotion well at all. Everyone looks so goddamn stiff.

If Superman can open a door without destroying the doorknob, surely he can control his own knob well enough not to shoot someone with a cum bullet. How is this even a topic worth of discussion?

I mean I'm pretty strong but that doesn't make my cum stronger than any other mans

Why would supermans cum shoot out at deadly velocities. Then wouldn't his farts and coughs level entire city blocks. What if when he runs he accidentally plants his foot too hard and explodes a street

Because the muscles that project his cum are a billion times stronger than ours. Like when you pump a super soaker way more than you’re supposed to and gently caress some kid up with it

And yes Superman has to constantly be aware of how much strength he uses or else poo poo breaks or people die. He probably wouldn’t be in total control while jizzing, but farting would be far more manageable.
