Jason Todd rocks!

Yeah. That's why the fans voted his underage a$# dead back in "A death in the family".

Oh yeah. Jason Todd is masqurading as Nightwing now in Nightwing's solo book. That's incredibly freakin' lame too.

Howard Chaykin/Walt Simonson's Hawkwoman is pretty dope though...

Thanks for the Challengers of the Unknown review, I've been meaning to pick that up. Now I shall!

Well, I like it, and as far as I'm concerned, that's all that matters to me.

Toxie, you're very welcome. It was Sam's suggestion that I pick this up and review it, knowing what a fan I was of the Kirby originals and the Loeb/Sale version. I was blown away by it, as you can tell.

I'm a huge Chaykin fan. Love American Flagg!.

I met Chaykin at WonderCon in 2005. He wasn't a registered guest. He had his acoustic guitar and was singing a crooning duet with Al Gordon at the end of the day. Not your usual fanboy moment, that's for sure.

Sounds pretty cool, Mad! I can no long find my copy of Black Kiss. Just ordered it off Amazon and am looking forward to reading it again.

So, the Thor storyline in FF seems to be a pretty big hit. Anyone read the latest chapter in the Planet Hulk arc? I've got it but haven't read it yet.

BTW, for any Dallasites that are interested, Howard Chaykin will appear at Zeus Comics from 6 - 8pm today! Signing, shaking hands, etc.

I remember Black Kiss. I still have the original comics and that was a hard series to put together if you missed an issue or two.

I made a conscious choice with Planet Hulk to wait for the Hard Cover. I figure with the comic in isolation from the rest of the Marvel Universe, it will not lessen my enjoyment if I don't read it in a timely manner.
