If you even have a slight interest in comics this should be a required read. If you have a interest in comics and haven't read this series shame on you.
Yaaaaayyyyyyy! Way to go ComicVine! You took some notice and did a feature on a smaller Indie comic. Not just the same old DC Marvel superhero fervor. An actual thought-provoking original story, with an original universe and characters. Anyways more to the point, Brian Wood is such a talented writer and I'm a sucker for most of his stuff (Northlanders, DMZ, The Massive) those are some of the books you guy SHOULD be talking about more often, books that are more compelling then the same superhero genre that get pumped out every week. Don't get me wrong, I love Snyder's Batman right now, and Hawkeye is soooo different and sets itself apart it's basically a indie. What Im getting at is just do more spotlights on indie stuff, get guys like Brian Wood, BKV, Ed Brisson, Nick Spencer or artists like Derrick Robertson, Riley Rossmo, or Sean Phillips to be on the podcasts..... But.... you probably wont and you'll use the "Not enough people look at those pages excuse"
The show is good, not great but good. It really irks me that people hold this show in such a high regard when it's really not doing anything that special. I enjoy it, but it will never match what the comics have done, no matter how hard AMC tries.
