The Innovator, Q-boy, & The Minstrel On Sudden Popularity (Censored)

ccc-89-theinnovatorqboytheminstrelc

Names can be hard to come up with.  Sometimes I find it to be the hardest part of making these comics.  So what I’m about to say isn’t being said without sympathy…

… In the comics “Iron Man” has this 15 year old black girl protege named “Riri Williams”.  It was looking like “Riri” was going to take “Iron Man’s” place after “Civil War II” possibly even using the name “Iron Man”.  Yesterday it was revealed she’ll be using name…. *drumroll* “Iron Heart”…..

“Iron Heart”?!  Really?! I mean “Iron Girl” or “Iron Woman” aren’t great but “IRON HEART”?!

Maybe I’m missing something or it’s just me, but I’m not feeling that name at all. Anyone feel the same? Different?

Tomorrow Q-boy returns with Death Poll and Kill Screen to talk about the perks of popularity. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

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 Smasher 

ccc-66.2-theinnovator

Anyone who’s not a kid or a rube knows that no major characters ever stay dead in comics. The worst thing about killing the “Hulk” is that there was no tension leading up to it.  It just felt like “okay this is what we’re doing for issue 3 ( of “Civil War II”)”. Give the “Hulk” a final rampage, or something huge to fight. Don’t just kill “Banner” basically out of nowhere and end it with that.

That’s how characters always die in comics now. They just suddenly get killed in some event. Then they come back. Rinse repeat. I guess what I’m trying to say is make deaths count.  I don’t care that the character is certainly coming back.  I watch “Dragonball” (which is usually pretty great about making deaths matter despite the fact characters ALWAYS get wished back). Just make remind me why the character is cool and let them do something awesome before they die.

That’s it for this week. New “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” Tuesday-Thurday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Ms. Majors On Reports On The Death Of The Smasher

ccc-11-msmajors

So “Marvel” has this new version of the “Hulk”, “Totally Awesome Hulk”.  He’s this character “Amadeus Cho” who’s super smart or something.  I don’t know much about him.  Part of “Marvel’s” plans after “Civil War II” is to take a bunch of the younger characters ( “Cho”, “Miles Morales”, “Ms. Marvel”, “Nova”, etc.) and put them together as a new version of “The Champions”.

I also touched on the “Kanye/Kim/Taylor Swift” thing and I don’t even care enough to get into it.

The Smasher On Reports Of His Demise (Censored)

ccc-smashertemplate

*SPOILER ALERT if you haven’t read “Civil War II” 3*

“Hawkeye” done went and killed “The Hulk”.  Character deaths in these crossovers aren’t even annoying anymore they’re just like “yeah whatever”.  Ya know what’s a great idea “let’s aggressively confront a guy who become a monsters when angry with a gang of superheroes, make accusations, and hack into his personal files”. Mind you this is after him not becoming “The Hulk” for over a year, and working to continue that streak.

Gotta say for the many faults of the original “Civil War” it had novelty and the art going for it.  The art in “Civil War II” is good but there seems to be far less action.

Tomorrow Ms. Majors dispels rumors about the death of The Smasher. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The Spider is at it again, and again things don’t go well for them.  Here we meet this world’s version of “Nick Fury”, Dick Anger.  Figured since “Marvel” eventually made “Nick Fury” Black I’d just start with him being Black. All of the panels of this comic are based on the work of Jim Steranko, and specifically…

Next time there is a great search for a man known as “The Virtuoso”.  Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” on Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
