I glazed over it to see if there was anything funny to post but it's all just gross and reads like someone's jack off material. The ending joke is that she thinks the farts were a curse but she's actually just lactose intolerant. That's the level of "comedy" they're working at. I didn't even pay for the thing and I feel ripped off.
There's not a lot that's bad in it in my opinion. Some people would say to avoid the later stuff in Uncanny and well it isn't as good as Claremont's ealier works I still enjoyed it. I found the later part of X-factor to be kind of bland as well, but I really don't remember why I thought that. Also the miniseries during his time can just be skipped unless you really like the characters in them. Some of them are good, but most don't actually have any effect on the world overall.
God Loves, Man Kills is the most overrated shit comic ever.
What's wrong with it? His Daredevil run is up next for me, so I'm curious what the complaints are about his writing style and overall quality.
Chip zdarskys everything is bad, he's just one of those millennials who the industry has psyopped into being successful. In reality, all of them are fucking terrible. Lot of people say zdarkys daredevil shit is good but I suspect it's more of the same. I feel the American comic industry will improve once it destroys the Tumblr rot and the emo foundations built by Alan Moore, gaiman and the faggot generation. Nothing is gritty or edgy or nuanced or deep anymore, it's just slop.
Prog politics, his women characters are very whiny and bitchy, his fights feel like punctuation for dialogue scenes instead of something meaningful, lots of the sex drugs hippie shit. It feels like theater kid writing, like the scribbles of an emo kid. Even if it's better than mariko tamaki, theater kid writing is not meant for superhero comics. There's like a distinct flavour to each generation of writer and each camp of comic book writers, Morrison was the faggot hippie alongside Alan Moore and gaiman, ennis was the gritty violent guy alongside mills and wagner, miller was an americanized version of gritty violence, neal adams is like batman pulp novel edition, millar is edgy shock value man and so on. Zdarsky is Canadian and his writing goes in the faggot hippie camp with a twinge of cuckery.
The problem is a lot of the people who brought in those tumblr activists to try and get the 'young crowd' refuse to admit that they fucked up and hired bad people. Sort of like how no matter how many times they see that getting Peter and MJ back together would be good for business, they refuse to do it because that goes against what they think Spider-Man needs to be. Comics aren't being made to make money these days, they're about what the editors want the comics to be.
Those can be fun.
Didn't Earth's Mightiest Heroes cartoon do something similar? It was one of the season finales iirc. I remember it being great.
Its not a total 1 for 1, but that kinda reminds me of the Thunderbolts introduction. Well, the part where all the A-List teams are out of the picture at least.
I forgot about that little era. A lot of the heavy hitters 'died' defeating Onslaught or were otherwise gone for about a year or two. Marvel tried introducing new versions via 'Heroes Reborn' but it went over like a lead balloon, so Marvel instead went "lol never mind" and brought everyone back.
