Read This Blog!

I've made it no secret that I despise One More Day and it's successor, Brand New Day. If you're on the side of the camp that believes Marvel screwed the pooch on Spider-Man, then you should check out Killer Writer's MySpace blog. Regardless of your thoughts on fan fiction, I think you'll be pretty impressed with what he's doing here. He begins the story in Amazing Spider-Man #545 and rather than urinate all over everything and eff things up the way Marvel has, he actually moves forward, and by forward, I actually mean forward, not backwards like Joe Q. Peter and MJ are still married and written in character, which is reason enough to read it but he also weaves a lot of interesting plot threads.

In all honesty, Killer Writer's work is a lot more creative than anything currently going on in the pages of ASM (which is a pitiful attempt to recall the glory days at best.) He's even got a story going that involves Norman Osborn and his green alter ego.

I've exchanged some back and forth messages with the guy on MySpace. Not only is he a good writer, he's downright funny. So check out his page and enjoy.

Thanks, Bob! I always enjoy reading your blog and your opinions on Marvel Adventures Spider-Man, which is now one of my fav comics.

That was a better way to conclude things! And unlike the actual end of OMD, it has me eager to see what's coming next.

Justice League: Doom

Watching DVDs on the computer is nice but sometimes it's better to watch them on TV. So after some thinking, I decided to get myself a new DVD player. This one is by Sony and it only set me back $40. Why didn't I get a Blu-Ray player? Because I'm not 100% sold on them. Besides, I hear the PS3 is a good Blu-Ray player as opposed to the PS2's DVD playback functionality, which was crap. When I get a PS3, I'll have Blu-Ray, so I can wait. And yet, when I bought my new DVD player, I picked up my first Blu-Ray movie. Well it came with Blu-Ray and DVD. Justice League: Doom is the latest DC Universe animated film. How prepared is Batman? Prepared to take down his own teammates, if it becomes necessary. Based off the Justice League of America: Tower of Babel story written by Mark Waid, JL: Doom explores Batman's paranoid nature. Batman has taken measures to stop each member of the Justice League should they ever go rouge or sub-come to mind control from ...

Marvel Wants to Hear From YOU!

In the letter page of Amazing Spider-Man #565, Spidey editor Steve Wacker filled the page with nothing but negative letters from readers that hate Brand New Day. Who says Marvel doesn't listen to the fans? And what's more, Mr. Wacker has even asked us to write in and tell them how we feel. Can you believe that? It takes class to run nothing but angry letters and a couple of those to the right are pretty nasty. My mother actually suggested I write to the editor and state my feelings on the molestation of Spider-Man in ASM. I'd been meaning to write them, but I just never sat down to do so. With the editor of the Spidey books kindly saying that the letter's page is "the place to vent," I think the time has finally come for me to express myself. I don't know if it will get printed since I've stopped reading ASM, but if they take my letter and many others that are outraged by BND to heart, then that's all that matters. Dear ASM Staff, Do you know what ...

Spectacular Art of Andie Tong

Andie Tong is the regular artist of the Spectacular Spider-Man's UK comic book. Now I haven't read any of the issues, but I did come across his deviant art page last night, which feature some of the pages from what looks to be a superb comic. I love all the quirky posses Andie draws Spidey in. He also does a terrific job on the webbing and the half-mask. I can take big or small eyes on a Spider-Man mask, but I think Andie gets the right combo. The eyes aren't too big and they aren't too small. Andie also draws a very excellent Green Goblin. It'd be sweet if he could do the art for some of the Spider books in the states. James Offredi does the coloring on Andie's artwork. Needless to say, James does an amazing job, making Andie's already gorgeous art look even better. I know its only artwork and I haven't read any of these issues, but from what I've seen, it looks like the stories in the Spectacular Spider-Man UK book are a heck of a lot more interes...
