Tuned in to Comics & Cartoons!

Recently finished "When the wind blows", I think it depicts the nuclear war in a very pessimistic way and i don't like it.

>>5
I think that's what made it beautiful in a way. It's a solemn look into the tragedy of mankind.

I still never read or watched that, I haven't read anything in awhile but the last one I did was Heavy Liquid by Paul Pope which I liked a lot, pretty simple and fast story but it works and Pope art always nice to look at. I liked the whole comic exist because he was listening to a song.

Sometimes artists have the weirdest inspirations, I once read of this yaoi mangaka that got her story by eavesdropping on a group of friends in the park.

Lol that's crazy music inspired stuff is always pretty cool to me, the comic had a another book set in the same world called 100% which I actually read first and might like more, both solid though.

Only webcomics at the moment:
3rd Voice
Bad Machinery
A week ago I was re-reading the Usagi Yojimbo storytimes. Last non-storytime I remember is Thomas Ott's Cinema Panopticum. picrel just a sample from last few years.

I shall be 11

Skybound's been doing pretty good work with Transformers and the GI Joe stuff. Basically take your pic, you're likely to get something decent.

Well I'm reading a manga now but I did recently finish a volume of Astro City
This particular story was about an ageing hero couple coming to terms with their years of service catching up with them. They have no powers and cringe at the idea of running around in heavy-duty power armor, or just teaching the new generation of heroes. One of them reflects on their past (supervillain father), while the other fears a future out of a costume and goes to great lengths to try and power themselves up.

I'll have to check that out, I watched the movie a while back but I never knew that there was a book for it too, if they're related. The movie I saw centered around an elderly couple who didn't really pay the evolving crisis around them too much mind and didn't even change much after the bombs dropped. Is it the same? I remember it being very frustrating to watch

I haven't read a webcomic in years.
>>11
Never heard of it.

I hope they save TMNT from IDW.

i KNOWN Astro City for years but never read it, I really should read it, seems like pretty classic style superhero stuff put into a modern lens.

>>12
I was reading the early issues when they were setting it all up but kind of fell out of it. Honestly, I'm mostly waiting for a big crossover and/or arc to happen and then I can catch up all at once.
Might be too much of a trade guy for my own good.

Astro City is great! Busiek is one of the greats, for sure.

right now reading rick and morty comics. i feel kinda nostalgic and at the moment i'm excited to see what good has in this comics. in my opinion they are really fun and interesting. some stories are able to carry themselfs way better than some episodics episodes of the show. its a really good tv adaptation. highly recommend for people who want to see the characters be used in a more fresh and drama/comedy/slice of life way

Astro City is awesome. I purchased 5 of the Metrobook collections at the start of the year and have finally gotten around to them this month. The Nearness of You is probably one of my favorite stories in comics or any other medium.

The Rick and Morty comics are quite neat, the Doofus Jerry arc is one of the few trades I own, I love that guy so much.

>>59
It's great!
I used to bounce back and forth on whether or not I'd make that choice but ultimately I decided it would be for the best too. To have a love that deep that your memory pushes back against a timeline rewrite is nothing to sweep away

>>108
Same! Jerry in the comics is one of my favorites characters! The fact that there is a Jerry in a alternate reality capable to be even more practical and persuasive as Rick is a neat fact. Probally one of the few beings equally or as poweful as Rick. Have you seen the season 8 trailer? Seems like there is a new studio animating the Show and so far the art in the backgrounds looks amazing.

I've been reading the old DC sword and sorcery books, Night Master is pretty trippy.

Never heard of it, care to post some art?

I thought I was the only one to actually like them over the mainiline series. Although they're not always all that funny, they can at least work some good jokes in, like the fact they keep insisting that character X is in no way related to the copyrighted counterpart. My biggest issue with the Rick and Morty comics though is that some of the art is objectively awful. For every story like Doofus Jerry's arc there's like a couple that look basically like an intern phoning it in.
