The music of Joan Jett and the Blackhearts is simplistic, low brau, loud, basic 3 chord progressions and... I love it... Joan has a song entitled, "I hate myself for loving you." It's going through your head RIGHT NOW...isn't it?
Anyway, do you ever find yourself loving a movie that you KNOW is a bad movie? For example, Starship Troopers. I KNOW it's a bad movie. It's a REALLY bad movie...The storyline is stupid! There are bugs hurling rocks through space to smash into earth, the good guys are essentially nazis, military cliche makes up the bulk of the dialogue, and Dougie Howser is a tough guy?!?! and yet, (head held low, eyes downcast) I love this movie...Forgive me.
So...With that in mind, let's talk comics... I hate timeline problems, I hate lack of continuity, I hate villains becoming good guys, and I hate sexually disturbing implications in comics... So put them all in one comic book and I should hate it. I really should..... I really REALLY should.
So, I just read Uncanny X-Force 1 and I'm sorry to say it looks like it's going to be pretty freaking good....
(ooops! I just realized I had things that should have had a spoiler alert warning... I've put that in now...)
And yet, with all these things that I obviously hate....I loved issue one of this comic and I think it's going to be a great series... I love the way it's drawn. I like the dialogue. I'm happy to see Puck back in spite of the fact that he's basically a short guy with no powers whatsoever. I really love Psylocke's new attitude.
Storm: Hi Betsy.
Psylocke: *&^% you!
Puck: Hey! You're Psylocke aren't you?
Psylocke: *&^% you!
SHIELD: You're flying unknown and unregistered technology in Los Angelos airspace without Avengers permission!
Psylocke: *&^% the Avengers!
How could anyone NOT Love this newer, sweeter, more prolific version of Psylocke?
I think it's going to be a good series... We'll see..
