So how many of ya’ll been watching (or have a watched for you super binge watchers) “Luke Cage”? I’ve watched about half of it and it’s pretty damn good. “Marvel” and “Netflix” has done it again! One thing I really like about the “Marvel” “Netflix” shows is that each show feels completely different than the others. It’s damn shame we’re not getting a “Ghost Rider” show like this.  Instead he get’s to hang with “Skye” from “Agents Of Shield” while she been annoying.

Speaking of which, tomorrow Luscious Trapp returns with Blind Fury and we’re introduced to Hell’s Hunter. They’ll be talking about his character being on the show “Operatives Of A.R.M.O.R.”. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The Minstrel, Q-boy, & Freedom Female On Anxiety (Censored)

ccc-87-theminstrelqboyfreedomfemalec

Can “Wonder Woman” break “DC’s” streak of bad movies? It’s possible. The trailer was pretty good. The only thing is there’s still no clear villain.  I see this as a bad sign.  This seems to indicate there’s either no real villain or the villain sucks.  This is a tough area for “Wonder Woman” as she only has 2 villains that a decent amount of people would know.  That’s “Cheetah” and “Giganta”.

On top of that you gotta fit whatever you plan to do around World War I. Having the movie take place during World War I as opposed to World War II where “Wonder Woman” actually debuted in  the comics is a decision I find particularly strange.  The only reason I can think of for doing it is to avoid comparisons to “Captain America”. Those comparisons to are unavoidable. It’s already noted that both feature soldier’s named “Steve” played by a guy named “Chris”.

I guess only time will tell… Tomorrow The Minstrel and Q-boy return to talk about school along with Slowku. Hope you emjoy and see ya then!

The Minstrel, Q-boy, & Muffina Winters On The Olympics

ccc-86-theminstrelqboymuffy

I haven’t watched one second of The Olympics.  I just don’t care.

So I decided I’m going to run with this whole “trying to make the comic relatable” thing I started last week for a while. Also as the comic suggests I’m keeping The Minstrel (my “Harley Quinn” based character if you didn’t know) around to ride on the wave of popularity “Harley Quinn” has gotten from “Suicide Squad”.

Muffina Winters (my “Buffy The Vampire Slayer” character if you didn’t know) if you notice is referred to as “the former
“Murderess Of Monsters”. She appeared a few times in this comic and “The History Of Comics With Q-boy”.  I have a whole story about it if I ever get around to it.

Tomorrow The Minstrel and Q-boy return and are joined by Freedom Female (the “Wonder Woman” character) to talk about anxiety. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The History Of Comics With Q-boy #59 Broad City AKA The One With The Other Comic (Censored)

I was 6 of these comics ahead at one point then I totally changed my mind on what I wanted to do, and blew through that.  Then eventually I got 6 of these comics ahead again, and now… I’m maybe a little over halfway done with the next one.  “Writer Ricky” keeps wanting to put too much material in each comic and “Artist Ricky” has to tell him that means it got to be a double page. “Writer Ricky” says “so be it”, and that’s how I got where I am now.

All that aside, “The Bastardized Ninja” is actually the title character of my other comic (which is currently on hiatus but will return at some point). You can check out those comics here http://qr.net/bWPD8

Anyways like last time this comic is based on the work of Will Eisner.  Let’s get to the panels:

Next time a man known as “The Outlaw” tell his story of how got involved with Q-boy Comics. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #84 The Minstrel, Q-boy, & Nodachi On The Struggle To Eat Healthy

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #84

The Minstrel, Q-boy, & Nodachi On The Struggle To Eat Healthy

ccc-84-theminstrelqboynodachi

“Katana” is a woman named after a sword so I just picked a different sword for this chatacter based o her, “Nodachi”. A nodachi is a super long sword like the one the “Sephiroth” from “Final Fantasy VII” uses.

So the general idea about this comic was making fun of attempting to make this comic more like a “normal” webcomic (many of which are focused on gags based around relatable topics).  Enough of this, back to talking about “Suicide Squad”. Let’s get to “Harley Quinn”.

In previous comics I made it pretty clear I wasn’t a big fan of “Harley Quinn” being part of “Suicide Squad” or her costume changes over time.  It just makes no logical sense why anyone would pick “Harley Quinn” to be part of “Suicide Squad”. She is unstable, unpredictable, and has no powers.  If any fairly athletic chick with a bat can make your black ops team you need to shut that team down and start over.

“Katana” much like “Jubilee” in “X-men: Apocalypse” is given very little to do. I think she only has two lines that are actually in English.  She’s just kinda thrown into it, and that’s it…

“Captain Boomerang” is given the big intro treatment (that leads to a “Flash” cameo (and he still looks stupid)) that “Deadshot” and “Harley Quinn” get but again he doesn’t do much.  There’s no part of this movie that really required the use of a boomerang.

“Killer Croc” looks really stupid and barely even speaks. I wish they made him like the version in “Batman The Animated Series” but that’s purely personal preference because that’s the version of the character I know.  He does actually use his special abilities by swimming through the sewer at one point (you don’t see it) and using his strength to throw something.

The other characters I either covered last time or it would be spoilery to talk about them much. The villain is stupid and their plans completely change without explanation. The plot shows no need for this particular group of characters besides maybe “El Diablo”. The action is weak. These so called “worst of the worst” are actually pretty tame and damn near heroic. All that and all the humor falls flat.

We’ll finish up with “Suicide Squad” as Q-boy, The Minstrel and in his first appearance (the “Joker” character) The Mad Jester discuss dating. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #82 Spiderous-Man On Picking Sides (Censored)

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #82

Spiderous-Man On Picking Sides (Censored)

ccc-73.4-spiderousman

In the original story of “Spider-Man’s” origin from “Amazing Fantasy” #15 “Spider-Man” gets a taste of fame and immediately acts like a total dick. Then some criminal runs past him as some super old security guard is chasing him. For some reason it’s suppose to be his responsibility to stop the guy.  He easily could’ve, but it needs to be pointed out that he literally has seconds to do it. It’s one panel. The next panel the criminal is on the “express elevator”. Then “Spider-Man” REALLY acts like a dick and says “he’s only looking out for number one”. Then as we all know the criminal kills “Uncle Ben”.

It seems like every version since has tried to make “Spider-Man” more sympathetic, but it changes the lesson from “don’t act like a dick” to “let people push you around”.  In the first “Spider-Man” movie now the people the criminal stole from  just cheated “Spider-Man” out of money. Also the criminal usually has a gun in other versions of the story.  Even with his spider powers he ain’t bulletproof. So now “Spider-Man” is suppose to risk his life for people who cheated him otherwise he’s a bad guy?

With that we end this week. Next week check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” on Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The Innovator On The Story About Him And Ms. Majors Beefing (Censored)

ccc-76-theinnovator

As this comic might suggest “Civil War II” #4 pushed me to really disliking “Civil War II”.   The argument makes no sense;”Ironman’s” position makes no sense; and good characters are being killed for no reason.

(SPOILER ALERT for “Civil War” #4)

So “Iron Man” discovers that this kid that can predict the future can only see the most probable future (which I could’ve swore he already found out last issue) and somehow that’s suppose to change everything. So “Iron Man” assembles the “Illuminati” to tell them this, and they’re basically useless and say little more than “I dunno”. Then dumb stuff happens and it’s finally a face off with “Iron Man” and his heroes vs “Captain Marvel” and her heroes… Except “Captain Marvel” calls in the “The Guardians Of The Galaxy”… I don’t buy it… Even if some tie-in comic explains it better I still don’t buy it… People traveling from space to be a part of this dumb fight breaks my suspension of disbelief.

Next time Ms. Majors talks about this stuff. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

ccc-79-theminstreljadearcherandquickiec

I don’t get all the hate for “Arrow”.  I’m not trying to argue with anyone about it, but I don’t get it. On the other hand, “The Flash” gets way too big a pass for doing the same things over and over again, and having ridiculous nonsense science all the time. All the “DCComics” “CW” shows are good, but have flaws. The trailer for the next season of “Arrow” looked pretty cool with him training a bunch of new guys.

With all that’s been shown of “Suicide Squad” I’m still not sure about it. My bet is the movie is going to be “okay” to “good”, but not “great”.

That’s it for this week. Next week starts off with a new “The History Of Comics With Q-boy” where there’s a big search for a man known as “The Virtuoso”, and then Tuesday-Thursday there will be more “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations”. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

This one is about “Civil War II”.  The big “Marvel” event going on now.  Looks like “Iron Man” and “Captain Marvel” are squaring off over whether to use or not use this new “Inhuman” (surprise!) who can predict the future to stop things before they happen.   Not hopeful about this but whatever.  Gotta say I haven’t really liked an event comic in a long while.

Tomorrow more with The Innovator and Ms. Majors as they talk more about people who can predict the future. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
