  1. I usually just use a drycloth...would alcohol deteriorate the paint over time? Thats what I worry about
  2. Aside from the marvel milestone exclusives, I actually found out that waldenbooks slightly beats them in having better selection. Or maybe its just the one by my house. But I do agree the marvel milestone grey books are cheap and have gloss paper...very cool.
  3. I've still got the original series I bought at age 13 in 1988 or whenever it came out! I am understandably a tad nervous about the movie. If they dont' glorify the fight scenes I reckon it might not be too bad. My main worry is if they make it all cool and matrixy and construct big set piece action sequences when the voilence in the book is not dwelled on at all. I saw some shots on the official site from the film sets and they did look great. PS - thanks to this thread I bought 9 TPBs from Amazon yesterday.. 4 vols of Walking Dead, Batman Dark Victory and The Long Halloween, Arkham Asylum, Kingdom Come and Fables Book 6. Spent the weekend re-reading the entire series of Preacher for the (at least) 10th time. 377591[/snapback] I heard one of the last fight scenes is glorified but all the other previous ones are done well and in a believable matter very similar to how V is in the book. My beef with the film is that I screeners who saw it at nycc said that the story was altered to reflect current political conditions(bush administration)_...which to me wasn't needed since I REALLY REALLY wanted to see the original story preserved and intact(which was basically slamming parliament in the early 80s and margaret thatcher). Aside that screeners still said it was good and one of Moore's/Lloyd's former students from the london cartoon college way back when thought it was good. One thing to remember is that Alan Moore requested his name REMOVED from the film. My buddy did point out however that Alan Moore has done this a lot with other movies. And Golden Arms, you were right, Jason Todd is another Nightwing. There will be 2 in the upcoming books, Dick and Jason. Not sure how this will pan out but I'm glad Joker did not off him in the recent issue otherwise it would have been a waste to have brought Jason back in the first place.
  4. It pains me to see someone refer to these designs as somehow belonging to the rennaisance. Not to be an ass or to flame anyone, but if you know that there WAS a western Rennaisance, how do you have almost no idea when it was? oh, and, eh...I like shockwave but the a train is pretty weak as it needs rails, and those airplanes are horrible. 375619[/snapback] Yeah... Shockwave my pref too. A german tigertank or u-boat would e cool. Or that chunky high profile british tank in afrika... 377626[/snapback] But the story takes place in the 1800's....
  5. Im assuming raw, since most pilots going to topgun are mostly used to fighting their squadmates in the same planes....totally different ball game once they fight something smaller handled by an instructor rather than a pilot who probably started out on the same tour as said pilot. Whoo hoo page 100!
  6. Found this on 4chan http://bin.4chan.org/m/src/1141707567306.jpg Cover has eureka 7, flap has VF-1, apparently this covers everything inbetween as well. And comes out NEXT WEEK! Talk about under the radar. I HOPE this has some macross 0 art!(assuming it will since it also has his later works like aquerion and eureka 7) HELL YEA!!
  7. What was the last squadron to use the F-8H? I also think it could beat the skyhawk but if in a turning fight, might have a hard time against the A-4R. however wth an afterburner and higher speed/acceleration, I don't think the F-8 would have a problem outdiving and swooping in for the kill.
  8. Pics where? and its all not in english when I load it up....
  9. Voltron vs Gundam Wing in lawn dart Race, who will win? form Blazing Sword! lol
  10. I've read some of it. I did read identity crisis and some of infinite. Infinite is so big that I'm waiting till it all hits TPB to read it all. I doubt Jason Todd would replace Nightwing, Nightwing doesn't seem to be gravely injured or dead at the end of Crisis. I have read part of the OYL Batman. Theres a new vigilante in town but I didn't read enough into it to find out who.
  11. I think he has, just not sure exactly what went down. Last I read, Nightwing was stuck in Bludhaven, and Jason Todd took Joker hostage after torturing him. So he's trying to lure Batman, into making a choice, either save Dick or Joker....in the latest Nightwing batman shows up at the end when Dick is about to pass out. So I'm not sure what else is supposed to happen, I take it he's going to try to go to Gotham and take out jason as well and aprehend Joker, but not sure. Jason's just really pressing his buttons.
  12. Not even the Buckster is immune to the resurrection Virus. Captain America has been relauched. In this new title Bucky is revealed to be alive and going by the name of the Winter Soldier. This Storyline was rated as the Best by Wizard magazine. I highly recommend it. Jason Todd now goes by the alias of the Red Hood. He's out for a little revenge. I heard that it was a landslide in favor of offing Jason Todd. 376808[/snapback] I read that it was pretty close in the "a death in the family" tpb where he dies. It was 640 something to 640 something in favor. I think, I'm pretty sure it was in the 600's for each. And Jason Todd is pissed that Bruce did not off Joker after he died. He sees clippings of newspapers documenting the numerous times Joker escaped from jail and murdered people repeatedly and yet still, always escapes justice. Jason goes on a killing spree, killing drug dealers and mob bosses during the the issues as Red Hood when he first shows up. Black Mask is starting to catch onto the fact that Batman knows who the Red Hood really is. What I do like about Todd's return is that he came back radically different and pissed for a reason. ANd not pissed where he goes emo and blames his parents or something, but pissed and takes out a good portion of criminals AND doesn't hesitate to kill in the book. This is what makes him radically different than any of Bruce's former sidekicks, and its nice to see one actually do something bad rather than beat around the bush so to speak. And I never liked him too much as Robin but I DO like him a lot as Red Hood. I'm perfectly content with him being a vigilante pissed as hell yet still serving justice in a hardcore way, while still against bats. With Winter Soldier its the case of "ARGG im gonna kill you cap'n america, oh wait...wow I was yoour friend thats why I keep remembering you...*runs away then shows up in wolverine somehow*). Also the OYL(One Year Later) storyline from DC has already started, and Catwoman(Selina) is pregnant, then delivers kid, and theres a new catwoman in her place.
  13. Geekiest geek. ever. 376806[/snapback] Definitely. LOL who knew 15 years later he'd get PWND since they brought Jason Todd back. I bet that dude's pissed his contribution to comic history just got erased.
  14. Yup jason Todd is alive. HAs something to do with one of the other earth's superboys punching stuff, Jason not knowing he was going to come back, Talia, and other spoilerish stuff.(I ddin't spoil the entire main thing so don't worry). Basically the reason he''s pissed at Bruce? Because Bruce didn't kill Joker, aka avenge Jason And....Bucky is back as Winter Soldier(which I feel was really trying to rip off the Jason Todd returns(under the hood) storyline that DC was doing beforehand). For what its worth, the art was good, but the winter soldier ending SUCKED. And with Jason Todd, the original vote to kill him off back in the late 80s was only won by I believe 8-12 votes. IT was VERY close. Theres a rumor that one fan had his computer wired to his phone programmed to call every 8 minutes in favor of killing Jason Todd.
  15. Did he care to say what specifically made the H a lot better than the J? I forgot there was an H version.
  16. Yep officially back. Reading more into it now, has something to do with another superboy, Jason was DEAD for sure, but lets just say he had some help from Talia. And he's real pissed Bruce didn't off the Joker after he died, "exact vengeance".
  17. I always thought mine meant "new destiny" but for all I know of now I have no idea what the hell it means LOL. Kai for custom and 7 because 7 is a perfect number although I am not perfect. But it sounds cool!
  18. And that my friend, is exactly why many people resent/hat them till this day. I already had a problem with Pat Lee making all of his characters look like zombies with their expressions, and I hear the only reason he's got work after all that was because he is fast and has a team with him to help out I guess with inks. For what its worth they started out with a LOT of promise, I believed in what they were doing back in 2000, but after all this, not anymore. I was already tiring of his obese thunder thigh optimus primes and other transformers but what he did to fellow artists was the nail in the coffin. IDW is handling the license pretty well and printing some of the old dreamwave stuff, I hope they eventually recollect and reprint all the war within books.
  19. Knight26 and other engineers and those in the know here.... How feasible are these designs in reality? I think some of the planes are hit or miss.....most of them look cool, one of them in particular(I don't know the name but its really really really weird looking), but I do love the main fighter, the FSW, and the navy one a LOT! I actually think the designs in the original novels would work better aerodynamically than the OVA ones. FOr what its worth, I still have not watched it but the trailer animation looked spectacular. I'll probably pick it up but I am not expecting much storywise. I think bandai should do a SIC or soul of popynica 1/72 Yukikaze line with retractable gear. DROOOLLLL!!
  20. Not at all! Go ahead 376226[/snapback] THANK YOU!! I'll message you this weekend. I just picked up Ultimate Wolverine vs Hulk. VERY cool. Hulk rips wolverine in 1/2 and wolverine has to find his legs 3 miles away while crawling on a snow filled mountain. PLus its Leinil Yu on art....love the guys work! The batman annual explains how Jason Todd came back.. ehhh.....nothing unexpected...basically however you think he came back? Yup thats probably how he came back......nothing over the top, and nothing unexpected if your a bats fan. Lets just say pit....I think you'll get the point. I also got Beast wars#1. I LOVE the artwork. Even characters like polar claw look badass. Lio convoy looks awesome in here. THe colors were done good, I especially like the flashback scene. And Don Figueroa's work is always getting better, so I do like it a lot. I have not picked up IDW's mainline TF book. I think Ej Su is okay but I'm not a big fan of his work. His robots are a bit too simple in some areas, his vehicles are not very accurate in regards to proportions and they are a bit boring to look at as well as the way he draws people. The transformers themselves look okay but for what its worth, I like Joe Ng/james Raiz/Don Figueroa's work a lot better. It doesn't help that Su's got big shoes to fill in. If his work gets better or if one of thee above artists gets a stab at the pencils I'll definitely pick up the mainline book.
  21. I try to do both whenever possible, but as Radd said, Tag & Bink are Kevin's characters. I love working with him, when you read a script written by Kevin Rubio, the images just begin to pop up in your brain The image is the 4th page of the first issue. What happens is that Kevin decided on re-write an old T&B short story he did for the late SW Tales magazine, a story Kevin wasn't quite satisfied with. Hence the "Special Edition" tag on issue 1 I don't remember who was the artist back then, but I had to draw the same scene and maybe that's the reason why Radd thought it was from an older comic. I tried not to look at the original art when I was doing my version but they turned out very similar (great minds think alike ) Anyway, I owe you guys a teaser, so here's another page from the same book. Enjoy. Edit: Double post, sorry. 376189[/snapback] Sweet!! I like your style man, very clean and crisp. Btw I gotta write a paper on businesses or how companies work in the illustration world, you mind if I send you interview questions through PM?
  22. reminds me of the more humanoid looking destroid that hikaru once used in the tv series. I think it was the gladiator?
