I liked Frank Miller’s art way more when he was younger than I did after he turned 30. That's because when he was younger, he used a pencil. With Dark Knight Returns, he did a lot of pages with just ink, usually marker. No planning, just whatever struck him at the time. He and Lynn Varley got ONE MILLION DOLLARS for that. Let's not even talk about how HER art changed with that book... sheesh..... And the piles of coke he was doing in the 80s didn't help either...

And there's that infamous panel from X-Men #1 where Iceman makes "pie a la mode" by using his powers on a pie. Thanks for ruining the pie, Bobby. And there's that infamous panel from X-Men #1 where Iceman makes "pie a la mode" by using his powers on a pie. Thanks for ruining the pie, Bobby. This happened in X-Men #6. X-Men #1's Bobby ice-related-hijinks-of-the-month was him putting on a hat, two buttons and a carrot to mimic a snowman. And yeah, that pie a la mode would have tasted horrendous. Yep. I didn't know Bobby has the power to shoot milk and sugar out as well to produce ice cream.

The biggest thing to remember is that fans are generally terrible. There is nobody who hates, for example, Star Wars, worse than a "Star Wars fan." By and large most people want the illusion of change. Make it look like it's changing but keep it comforting and familiar. Why? Because humans are a superstitious and cowardly lot. This is pretty much on point with how I see things as well. The old farts of the collecting age are afraid that their beloved comics or whatever is going to outlive them, going into places where their minds didn't want to go or thought it should be going. Humans like familiarity and want things back to status quo. I'll admit there's somethings I don't care about todays Big 2 comics. It's more of the severe dark outlook that's in their books but as for characters changing, orientation or introduction of new legacy characters, I don't give a flying f**k about that. New writers and artists will bring their vision to the characters. It might hit; it might sink. Vote with the wallet has always been my motto when it comes to comics. I'm trying to not to make this political but a lot of the new comics deals with this; but change hurts the fragility of their old collecting bones. Star Wars fans. Comic Fans. Whatever small niche of collecting has been weaponized for the worst.

I've been on fire with the pick ups! My LCS got a private collection of silver age Marvel. I'm good friends with the owner got to look through the 4 short boxes. I pulled a few books for the future to purchase (including a FF50) but pulled the trigger on this Daredevil 16! So happy I got a pretty sharp looking copy.
