      Jim Steranko… His work at Marvel was amazing, one of my absolute favourite Captain America story-lines. And he revolutionised Nick Fury.

                Anyone check out the new Before Watchmen yet? I want to check it out even though the whole series is kinda a sacrilege. I was curious what you guys thought, though.

                  I must admit that the idea intrigued me, but DC are shitting on so much stuff at the moment. They're hiring the writers that nearly killed Marvel 15 years ago.

                    Yeah, I don't read comics that often. I picked up a few when "the new 52" from DC came out. Some were okay. Most were bad.

                    I'll still probably check out Before Watchmen. Curiosity always gets the best of me.

                      I just read a load of the Fables graphic novels while on holiday, really enjoyed those stories.

                        I tried to cheer myself up about the shitty state of my beloved DC by re-reading all the classics, now I am finished I feel all sad and empty when I look at what they're doing now  😞

                          I keep wanting to. I know it's a really cynical attempt to generate more cash, as a friend of mine said "Watchmen is perfect, it contains its own backstory".

                          On the other hand, I am slightly curious… £3.00 per comic is too much though, I may wait until it's all collected.

                          Or it gets cheap in digital form. I feel the holding back of the last two story arcs as a really, really cynical move though.

                                  Never been man, I'm in the UK so it's a fair trek  😃

                                  But if it sells comics, and is inhabited by individuals who believe that a man can fly, I would most certainly love it  😘

                                      I've also wanted to check out Transmetropolitan by Warren Ellis for awhile too. I thought his novel, Crooked Little Vein, was pretty hilarious.

                                      Looks like I can get it digitally (my preferred medium), so I may give it a shot.

                                        Thanks Nate, I do love a good geek out  🙂

                                        Who's everyone's favourite writers?

                                        For me, I roll with Alan Moore, Grant Morrison, Warren Ellis, and Mark Millar (Moore is my number 1).

                                        Artists, I love Alex Ross, and for some reason I absolutely love the style of Frank Quitely.
