Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #63

Special-Man, Freedom Female, & The Good Knight

On News About The American World Protectors Of America Movie

ccc-63-specialmanfreedomfemalegoodknight

I like “Batman”. It’s basically impossible not to like “Batman”. It’s annoying when people make him better and smarter than everyone else though.  The worst is when people make “Superman” dumb to make “Batman” smart.

So with this “Justice League” movie everybody is saying it’s “lighter” than “Batman V Superman”.  This is a bad sign.  When something is “pushed” like this it usually means something bad.  Also the in the description for “Justice League” it basically says “Batman” regains his faith in humanity after seeing “Superman” sacrifice himself”. Why would seeing an alien that you were trying to kill 5 minutes ago sacrifice himself (and its questionable if he really had to seeing as “Wonder Woman” could have done what he did without dying) make you regain your faith in regular human people?

That’s it for this week. See ya next Tuesday-Thursday for more Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The History Of Comics With Q-boy #55 &*@% That! We Fin’ To Ride! (Censored)

With this one I thought “what if a superhero team acted like a straight up gang?”.  For good measure I threw in a “Menace II Society” reference. Also in this one I introduce “The Spider” which is my version of “Cobra” from “G.I. Joe” only they’re not really that evil at all.  You’ll be seeing more of these guys over time. The panels of this comic are based on the work of Ramona Fradon.

That’s it for this one. Next time a man called “The Illusionist” is called in to solve a big problem. Check out new Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations this Tuesday-Thursday.  Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The History Of Comics With Q-boy #52 The Colorful Countess AKA The Secret Weapon (Censored)

Marlene Severie is based on Marie Severin whose was one of very few female comic books artists during the Silver Age of comics. She started out as a colorist and eventually moved on to doing penciling and inking.  She is probably best known for her work on Marvel’s comedy magazine “Crazy” and the comedy comic “Not Branch Echhh”.  She also helped to co-create the original Spider-Woman.

Panel 4 is based on two panels from two pages from Not Brand Echhh #3 (panel 3 on the first page and panel 5 on the second page) which you can check out here http://comicsworkbook.tumblr.com/image/135398438602

I hear some people have been talking about that 3rd Captain America movie that came out…. So yeah I ended up seeing it twice on Saturday.  Some have said it’s the best Marvel movie… Other say it’s the best comic book movie period…. Does it live up to the talk…. Is it truly the greatest of the great?

(spoilers ahead)

Well first to be very clear it is a very good movie.  BvS can’t even be mentioned in the same sentence. The big showdown is absolutely awesome and ranks up with the best fights ever…. But no it’s not the best comic book movie.  It’s not the best Marvel movie.  It’s not even the best Captain America movie.  Marvel’s weakness in it’s movies are usually the villains and this one has a very weak villain with a plan that make little sense and with a weak motivation.  The big problem with this movie is in trying to keep the villain and their plans mysterious is make them confusing. Here some other nitpicky stuff

  • The movie tries to be a Captain America movie but it really should’ve been named “Captain America & Iron Man : Civil War”, “Avengers: Civil War”, or “Marvel’s Civil War”
  • Cap’s position is dumb.  I just can’t get behind it. They make Tony and the government go too far, but it just seems like there was a way to easily comprimise
  • Wanda literally just killed a bunch of people and Tony is like “she should lay low for a bit” and Cap’s reaction is like “you MONSTER!”
  • Aunt May being young and hot just feels wrong.  I think it’s important that Aunt May is kinda old and frail and Peter always has to worry about taking care of her.
  • Spider-man in general could have been fit in more neatly. You just change the “college” speech/grant scene to a “gifted student” scene and have Tony see something that gets him to figure out Peter is Spider-man
  • They just kinda wasted Crossbones
  • The kiss with Agent 13 didn’t feel earned
  • Kinda weak to introduce all these “other Winter Soliders” and then do nothing with them

The unsung hero of the movie is Falcon. He really kicks ass in the movie.  I was really cool seeing a more “typical” Avenger’s mission. No one feels like the they were over powered and underpowered in the fights. One small exception is toward the end when Iron Man and Cap are fight it seems like Iron Man’s armor suddenly get damaged way easier than normal. I’m not sure where I rank this movie about I think the top 5 comic books movies are…

  1. The Dark Knight (honestly may be unbeatable with Heath Ledger’s “Joker”)
  2. The Avengers (also may be unbeatable because you can never recapture the magic)
  3. Captain America: The Winter Soldier (just plain a great film. Avengers only beats it because it has all the other heroes)
  4. Guardians Of The Galaxy (another just plain great film. Cap 2 only beats it out because it’s darker and he end credits scenes are better.  It’s that close)
  5. Deadpool (pretty much every second is violence, something funny, or both. Honestly this might rank higher if I re-watch all these)

Next time with see the comic Marlene created with features a big fight with Kill-man.  Also Tuesday-Thursday new Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #41 Succubus, Red Witch, & Drizzle On The Possibility Of The Revenge Squad & The Fresh-Men Being In The Same Movie (Censored)

Succubus, Red Witch, & Drizzle On The Possibility Of

The Revenge Squad & The Fresh-Men Being In The Same Movie (Censored)

ccc-41-succubsredwitchdrizzlec

Supposedly Marvel has been talking with Fox possibly about an “Avengers VS X-men” movie.  If Fox and Marvel make a deal DC REALLY has no hope being escaping being number 2. Could we actually get a good Fantastic Four movie? Deadpool in the MCU?  Avengers with Wolverine and Spider-man?

That’s the saddest part is. Marvel has literally been winning with both hands tied behind it’s back. And winning by a lot. I know I’ve gone on a lot about “Batman V Superman” but people aren’t grasping how big a failure it is.  DC pretty much gave you all of it’s best in one movie.  Again it put the 3 most recognizable names in the world in one movie.  You take the Batman and Superman logo anywhere in the world and people know what they mean. Marvel has no equivalent. The closest you could get is maybe Spider-Man, Wolverine, and Deadpool (after the movie) and you’d still probably have to add the Avengers and it still not the same.

I think the key is Marvel is still hungry.  You hear the Russo brother (the directors of “Winter Soldier” and “Civil War”) talk in an interview and you know these guy aren’t taking anything for granted. They write as if they know Spiderman is going to be in the movie so that Marvel has to fight to get him.  They don’t settle for less.

That’s it for this week. Next week starts with a new “History Of Comics With Q-boy” and Tuesday-Thurday we’ll have some new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations”. See ya then, and 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!

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!
