Which makes me feel severely narcissistic. <br /><br />And yeah, it seems that way. Even though I only know a little bit about the Green Lantern, I at least know about the rings situation.Mr. Hellfirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01757158101905486054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818971287067350807.post-26672353118832770792010-05-06T09:38:40.188-07:002010-05-06T09:38:40.188-07:00Oh my, Louis Garrel, I never overcame "The Dr...Oh my, Louis Garrel, I never overcame "The Dreamers"...<br /><br />Also, Alphona rocks, period. But the whole "Artifacts" thing bored me to death (oh, by the way, your thoughts on "The Darkness" are pretty much the same I have), seems to me too similiar to what Johns made in "Green Lantern" (which wasn't invented by Johns at all, but I think it's too soon to make something like than again and try to avoid comparisons).captainfurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16670507464525794046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818971287067350807.post-61937148549173106922010-05-02T14:04:28.057-07:002010-05-02T14:04:28.057-07:00Yeah, I think that was her name.

And I think she ended up dying in the end anyway or something like that.<br /><br />I find it hard to believe that Magdalena is now getting her own series. Not so much for her, but her surroundings, a corrupt church is nothing new and I really don't think a book can go far with a bunch of those sort of cliches.<br />Well, unless, the writer adds a new dimension to it, or refuses to go down the path of stereotypical characters.Mr. Hellfirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01757158101905486054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818971287067350807.post-13844542524734693072010-05-02T14:00:03.275-07:002010-05-02T14:00:03.275-07:00Haha, I think that was..

So I was just over it, plus the dialogue was REALLY cliched.

He should be getting ALL the work.<br /><br />I mostly like the Magdalena because she was a supportive female friend for Sara when she (the version I knew, anyway) was in Witchblade, which was.. pretty darn rare. Plus I just find it hard to say no to Catholic Secret Weapons. It's unoriginal, but what can I say?GPROAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05034272718112065198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818971287067350807.post-61403390449618863752010-05-02T11:35:49.100-07:002010-05-02T11:35:49.100-07:00Yeah, the designs for this one were based on alter...Yeah, the designs for this one were based on alternative scene looks, and for the most part it looked pretty current. I don't know how she is with just general style, it'd be amazing if she was like Adrian Alphona in Runaways because that was going above and beyond. Like I saw Alphona's style designs and I wanted to wear half of them. <br /><br />Egh, I have the Magdalena introduction thing in my issues of The Darkness and I could not stand her at all. But of course, I think the one I saw died during that arc, so yeah, maybe later ones were better.Mr. Hellfirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01757158101905486054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8818971287067350807.post-58148226028632128612010-05-02T04:04:36.787-07:002010-05-02T04:04:36.787-07:00Re: City of Bones, it always sucks when good art g...Re: City of Bones, it always sucks when good art gets paired with lazy writing. I'll definitely check out that artist though - believable YA character designs? Please!<br /><br />And as for Top Cow - yeah. <i>basically amazing ideas with great vibes and looks, with no work past that, just shallow cool factor</i>. I really dig the premises of the Witchblade, Aphrodite IX and the Magdalena but.. I read Witchblade for ages and apart from the nipplefest that it was I always wanted more from the stories. "It's over already?" was my basic reaction. Which sucks, because the whole universe-wide Artifacts thing is really nifty, too!GPROAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05034272718112065198noreply@blogger.com
