Life & death of Ferro Lad

by Josh Crawley

For some reason the past few years, the winter season puts me in the mood to checked out legion of Super-Heroes. While i don’t have a excellent number of legion comics, my collection of them grows slowly every year. The past two years have been particularly excellent for reprint collections, whether it’s the many showcase provides collections, An Eye for an Eye complied with up by The more things modification by Paul Levitz, Keith Giffen & Co., or the book I’m itching to get to soon, The Life & death of Ferro Lad (as part of the DC Comics classics library hardcover line). If you’re thinking about reading some L.o.S.H. yourself, 1,050 Years of the Future has a excellent sampling from many eras. (Normally I’d be torn about recommending excellent Darkness Saga, because of the lack of a excellent introduction/set-up), however it’s out of print for some reason. My assumption would be DC is waiting to make it an entry in the previously mentioned DC Comics classics library line, however at this point I wouldn’t hold my breath. After all, this is the business that has let born to Run as well as terminal Velocity (two outstanding Wally West Flash stories by mark Waid & Co.) go out of print.

And on that tangent, time for some quick link-blogging, as well as then I’m out of here. as well many holiday gifts to get completed (and as well much Phantom hourglass to play).

‡ I don’t have much by mark Schultz. Most, if not all, of what I have are comics he’s written. I have ended up being a excellent fan of his art (even if some people just think about him a “poor man’s version” of Al Williamson). I’ve truly enjoyed looking at the different Drawings books Flesk publications has put out, however I’ve never bought any type of of them. I believe I’ve discovered the very first one. Blue book will not be offered with book or comic stores, so be sure you comply with the link for details. It seems like a high high quality version of an ashcan you’d buy at a convention, however I truly don’t mind; 8.5 by 5.5 inches is nice size for preliminary artwork.

‡ last week you may keep in mind me discussing X Necrosha: The Gathering, which had some coloring by my good friend Chad Fidler. Well, he just recently published a few of the colored, non-lettered pages in his deviantART gallery. He likewise published pages from Witchblade #88 (written by Ron Marz as well as collected in Witchblade volume 2: Awakenings) that he worked on, in addition to more top Cow work as well as Athena Voltaire pages!

Parker the Hunter

‡ It seems a bit early for end of/Best of the Year lists, however they’re out there. looking at the Barnes as well as Noble listing (by Douglas Wolk), I made an fascinating observation: I haven’t checked out any type of of them. Not in full, anyways (Final Crisis). I do want to checked out Luba, as well as the others all noise interesting. as well as the Honorable Mentions I haven’t even partially read, however I definitely want to checked out Darwyn Cooke’s Parker The hunter adaptation as well as Scott Pilgrim volume 5. I’m believing of working on my own list, however I usually end up forgetting stuff. Plus, I like to really wait up until after the end of the year. I’ll most likely just end up doing my own listing after I checked out a lot of others to remind myself what came out this year.

‡ ever wondered exactly how comics went primarily from newsstands to comics book stores? Jim McLauchlin of Hero effort published a nice essay on Phil Seuling, the response to your question.

Gossip Girl

‡ While I don’t always agree with her, Johanna Draper Carlson’s comments on the Gossip woman manga preview were quite much area on. as well as no, I will not admit to understanding anything else about Gossip Girl.
