Here I am, really enjoying y'all's blogs, thinking you two are pretty cool guys, even seeking out your input for my own projects.......but now I hear that you're fans of Children of Men!

Can't spend money on a new title featuring some guy that shrinks, because that might take away from me getting some new X-Men rubbish.<BR/><BR/>That's the way the world works though. It's why a movie like The Departed rakes in the cash and snags a best picture award, when the superior Children of Men gets nothing.Damianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09585574143924025490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1821499108764797648.post-45410272336615258822008-01-09T13:57:00.000-05:002008-01-09T13:57:00.000-05:00I agree with you, Rob.

Although I'm as well versed a horror movie fan as anyone could be, I'd rather not see the gore and gushing make it's way into the Atom name just for the sake of doing it. Or in some scrambling attempt to draw in more readers.Damianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09585574143924025490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1821499108764797648.post-51003560615733166882008-01-09T13:27:00.000-05:002008-01-09T13:27:00.000-05:00Yeah, this book has embraced the grotesque a bit t...Yeah, this book has embraced the grotesque a bit too often, but it is awesome enough to be forgiven. I haven't read this one yet, Damian, but I'm going to pick up my copy today. I read the last issue, and I was a little non-plussed by it. I felt like a little too much happened with a little too little in the way of explanations. Like, what the heck was the thing controlling the townspeople?<BR/><BR/>Anyway, it's going to be a real shame to see Simone and company go! People have been predicting the doom of this book for a long while now, and I'm afraid without the great creative team, it might just come to fruition.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1821499108764797648.post-6968541098601817872008-01-09T13:03:00.000-05:002008-01-09T13:03:00.000-05:00ive started buying Atom based on your reviews (DC ...ive started buying Atom based on your reviews (DC now owes you a % of the $2.50), and have been enjoying the book.<BR/><BR/>i liked this issue, too, it was fun and had a sort of War of the Worlds feeling--weird happenings in a small town.<BR/><BR/>my only quibble was seeing the professor guy actually roasting on the spit. it seemed too gruesome an image for a fairly light tale and i wish it had been more off-panel.rob!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17556471244882205031noreply@blogger.com
