Frag Count & America-Man On Frag Count’s TV Show

ccc-39-fragcountandamericaman

Marvel gets it.  It’s just that simple. They played coy with us for a while but we’re getting the “Punisher” show.  They give us a taste of something awesome and then give us more of it.  DC seems to have the opposite approach… We saw “Man Of Steel” and were like:

“Um we like the action… Like good job on that, but um… The movie seems kinda dark and gloomy… Which is odd for a Superman movie.  Also Superman’s folks should encourage him to save people cuz’ that’s kinda the whole point of Superman… See he’s like a God but he’s a hero because of the people that raised him.  And again the 20 minutes of action were great but there a lot of really boring stuff… Also Superman probably should actually save people and shouldn’t kill people. Especially not in his first adventure… And if he does have to kill… It has to be a really big deal…. In fact you guys should really start over.  Ya know you got this show “Arrow” that people like… You should base your movies in that universe.  And you know how Marvel has the little scenes after the credits. We really like those.”

DC replied with the giant “Eff you!” that is “Batman V Superman”.  “Oh you didn’t like our Superman movie, well we’re gonna screw up Batman too! And for complaining here our Lex Luthor! Now take this movie and like or you don’t even want to know we’ll do to Wonder Woman”.

“You know you already have a Flash people really like…. Nevermind”.

So anyways “Civil War” comes out this week. And wow does it look good. And the reviews are even better. People are saying it’s the best comic book movie yet.  Can it possibly dethrown “The Dark Knight” as the best comic book movie?  I hope to find out on Saturday.  Tomorrow (unless plans change) Special-Girl, White Swallow, and Quickie talk about an appearance on Quickie’s TV show.  Hope you enjoy, and see ya then!

It pretty annoying when Marvel and DC kill off characters for cheap shock value, but it’s even worse when they cop out and the character didn’t even actually die.  Captain America and Batman both had “deaths” where they actually just when back in time.  What’s great is that some people always fall for this and this stuff actually gets news coverage.

So “Civil War” is next week and it looks like it’s gonna be awesome!  Don’t really got anymore to add so that wraps up this week.  See ya next Tuesday-Thursday for more Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations.  Hope you enjoy!

Here we have White Swallow would might have seen a little while back in Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations ( #29 & #31 which sorta refers to what happens in this comic).  The panels of this comic are based on covers drawn by Carmine Infatino including

In panel 3 Special-Man makes a reference to The Good Knight making a joke before. This referring to waaay back to Q-boy #2 on page 3. We also have the first appearance of Insect Dude.  For him I figured I’d combine Ant-man and The Atom as the serve basically the same purpose powers-wise.  Next time we meet a lady named Marlene in a double page special.  New Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations comics will be here Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Happy 50th comic people!  I decided to rename the comic “The History Of Comics With Q-boy” from “Q-boy Shorts” because I think the title was confusing and didn’t really work anymore.  When I originally started this comic I intended to do a long-form Q-boy comic and a short comic that would be posted more often.  I also had a completely different story I wanted to do that really made no sense the more I thought about it.  So I changed that story to the what we have now which is this messed up version of the history of comics.

This specific comic is about the artist Carmine Infantino who among many other things created the Barry Allen version of the Flash (which basically started the Silver Age of Comics); and the Barbara Gordon version of Batgirl.  He didn’t create Spider-Woman but he did draw some issues of the comic. He also drew many Adam Strange comic which is where all the jet pack stuff comes from.  Now let’s break down the panels…

All that and I barely got Q-boy in here. That’s it for this one. Next time on “The History Of Comics With Q-boy” we meet the White Swallow, and I have a feeling we’ll meet her even sooner though.  Tuesday-Thursday check out “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations”.  Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The Good Knight On Being Part Of A Team

ccc-26-goodknight

When I thought about my version of Batman I thought about what Batman does completely out of context.  If you take everything away at the end of the day mostly Batman is a rich man who beats on mostly poor people. Take that idea to the extreme and you get The Good Knight.

What’s great about Batman is that he’s a normal man who can stand next to the most powerful people on the planet in the Justice League and even strike fear in many of them.  I figure that has to come at quite a price. A price far greater than the hard work necessary to be that strong, smart, precise etc.   To me that price is his humanity.  On the inside he’s basically a computer that can act like a person well enough to get people to do what he needs them to do to continue his war on crime. Anyways that’s my thoughts.  Tomorrow Blind Fury chimes in superteams.  Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

“Batman V Superman” the movie that will make you think you’re going color blind…

Seriously though if you liked “Batman V Superman” that’s great I’m happy for you. I guess even envy you in a sense… That being said some of the defenses for it are ridiculous.  The first one it that “it’s making money”…. Well yeah you have 3 of the most iconic characters in history in one movie. Hell there are grandparents who have waited their whole lives to see them all on screen.  Of course it’s making money! It’s too big to fail! If this movie doesn’t break every record ever I see that as a pretty big failure.  Marvel did this with C and D list characters and in most cases they were critically successful as well.

The other argument I see from the actors and other people is “this movie wasn’t made for critics”.  C’mon buddy… I’ll give you critics are generally wrong sometimes.  One example is “Juno” which had like the highest score ever on Rottentomatos and it’s terrible. Another is “Machette Kills” which was pretty great but got bad reviews.  9 times out of 10 though if something gets bad reviews its a bad movie.

Ya know I think I’m done talking about “Batman V Superman”.  Just be even handed here some stuff DC does well…

  • All there TV shows are pretty good except “Gotham” which sucks and are waaay better than “Agents Of Shield” and “Agent Carter”.  The Marvel Netflix shows are on a whole other level of great though
  • The direct to DVD animated movies are great (Marvel’s are terrible)
  • Haven’t played the Arkham games but pretty much everyone says they’re good

What’s frustrating is the Marvel and DC really could learn from each other.  I want them both competing as hard as they can for my time and my dollars. Alright enough already, that’s it for this week.  Next week more Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations Tuesday-Thursday.  See ya then and hope you enjoy!
