August 29 – What comic book issue (that you don’t have) but would like to own?



The Waid/Wieringo Fantastic Four run has been on my list to buy/read for some time now. Its not that I have high expectations, I just keep thinking that I'll be disappointed because I hold the Millar and Hickman runs at such a high level that another cherished run might not take well. Which, admittedly, is odd considering I don't have that kind of favoritism against Batman or Flash stories.

No question. All-Star Comics #3. The birth of my favorite super hero team. I want this even before All-American #16.

August 26 – Someone approaches about getting into comic books. What tips, advice and suggestions would you give this person?

I would first ask what their interests are and what types of characters they’re drawn to: detectives, heroes with abilities, anti-heroes, etc. For established stories, I would suggest that TPB is the way to go instead of collecting massive volumes of books. I would also tell them to avoid Land, Tan and Liefeld art, if possible.

Reeve’s Superman flying around the Earth and then smiling at the camera as he flies away is to me, iconic and captures the essence of Superman.

August 28 – When and/or where do you usually find yourself reading comic books?

Either on the train when on the road or on my bed when at home.

Iron Man, Jessica Jones, Red Arrow, Wolverine, and Emma Frost so she can laugh at them.

The Justice League of America; specifically, I guess Clark, Bruce, Hal, Diana, Barry, Arthur, and maybe Ollie.



Of course, if it was about playing the field, I'd maybe alter that to Arisia, Supergirl, Wonder Woman, Harley Quinn (that would be interesting), Catwoman, Mera, and Lois.

I have to say that this is a great choice. The amount of times that this cover has been paid homage to is staggering. JLU even paid homage to this cover.

I'm tempted to just pick the characters that were in the issue of Hulk Peter David wrote for Rick Jones' bachelor party. That issue was hilarious!

Oliver Queen

Guy Gardner

Thor

Fire

Deadman

the Wasp

Tigra
