for every marvel exec that says audiences are tired of origin stories two origin stories grow back

Into the Spider-Verse is fucking phenomenal. It is easily the best comic book movie I’ve ever seen. It is an absolute joy to watch.

They nail the visuals, the characters are spot-on and perfectly cast, the emotion beats hit just right, the pacing is perfect, the story is somehow fantastic, despite trying to merge 5 different story lines together into one.

Wow that was great.

i finally read tom kings mister miracle tonight and god what just an incredible thing it was

As someone who has only a vague awareness of the comics industry I found this Tom King post pretty interesting

And the reaction to it has been equally as bizarre:

the power of spider-man is so great that my joy at seeing a comics-accurate(ish) mysterio costume in live action is dulled by the fact that i can’t help but be disappointed that this isn’t into the spider-verse two already

but like

mysterio

(the spider-verse version of mysterio would clearly be voiced by like scott aukerman or something and be incredible, alas)

just snagged the shop’s last 30th anniversary hardcover of Crisis on Infinite Earths

edit: i couldn’t even make it through the first issue. the foreword had already put me on the ropes, and then i took one look at that first cover- all the detail there was to take in- cringed, and shut the book.

edit #2: can’t decide whether to press on or take another stab at Astro City and/or Grant Morrison’s run on Doom Patrol.

both of your alternative choices are better than crisis on infinite earths

it’s driving me crazy that it’s a modern squarespace style long site instead of actual individual pages
