Preserving My Previous History At Blogger Part 11


Blogger Sake Mangusto said...



NOTE: My shop didn't get Demon Knights #3, so I hadn't realized that it came out. Will be reading it digitallywhen I have more time.

WTF??? What happened with "PLEASE HELP TO KEEP THIS COMIC GOING ON FOREVER BY ACTUALLY BUYING THIS BOOK ?"

Me and my Team read comic books digitally because we are foreigners with no budget to expend with buying and import the real thing, we may be thieves but we are the kind of thieves who stolen the seeds from Nothingham and give it back to the poor, we are Hooded Claws - go figured it.

For a passionated fun ‎from a few weeks ago this digital move looks like a shoot in the foot, not something really made to complain about but a bad P.R. move anyway.

Readers Across the Top of the Fourth Wall Please Buy it Demon Knights #3 and following issues, it's a good damn book so far, forget what Lewis said about go digitally because that was probably bad edited - slow down Lewis, you are obviously tired and didn't really mean it when you write that.

Thanks God Christmas is coming.

P.S.: Thanks for keep the TAIS Alive ! And if you like it you buy it, unless of course you can't, like when somebody is like you and the budget don't allowed or when someone else is like us and we have conflicted interests about and really stretched moral fibers concerning "DC COMICS GREATEST MISTAKES AND THE REASONS WHY WE DON'T BUY IT".

Did you see it DC ? It's not just us, even Lewis can became tired enough to be corrupted by your digital vices. Praise for the heavens if he stays lawful good after his 20's.

Sake, I'm working on a double feature of Atop the Fourth Wall. I don't have time to travel to my comic shop to pick up ONE comic they may not have on hand because Diamond screwed up in shipping to them or whatever other reason.

I love Demon Knights, but in the end it's a fictional story that has no larger bearing on my life.

And by the way, I don't know how long you've been here, Sake, but I've been pushing for digital comics for YEARS. I am a STRONG proponent of digital comics and yes, I'm going to be buying Demon Knights #3 digitally. I have not been "corrupted" by a service that I have WANTED for several years now.

I was joking about the "being corrupted by" part, i start giving my thoughts and comments only recently and i really missed the "buying digitally" kind of solution for things that happen when the distributor screwed things up at the local bookstore.

Anyway Across the Jungle Cities of Brazil, the Kazakhstan's Travelling Camel Hords, the Freaking Raining Suburbs of Liverpool and all the way across the World Wide Web the Hooded Claws are strong proponents of read first and buy it when the book deserved to be buy it and the company made it available in my neighborhood without picking up the money from my pocket at gun point.

I really missed the fact that when you say reading digitally you already imply "buying digitally" also. Sorry for this misunderstanding.

Back on topic and i quote : "I'm working on a double feature of Atop the Fourth Wall. I don't have time...", it's not about time for you to stop playing with holograms and start to, let's say, recruit a real crew to help you with the Fourth Wall ?

I know it's your show, people want to see and listen to you, etc, etc... but probably the League-of-one sort of job may be working it's tool on you and without you there is nothing to show anymore because you are the main character here.

Let's face it : "Who wants to watch Star Trek without Captain Kirk, Captain Picard or Captain Sisko in their respective shows ?" Nobody, but all this guys had their own crews to get the job done, i am just suggesting you could add some pro-bono helpers on behind the scenes instead of burning your candle from both ends on a daily basis, you must take better care of yourself.

Liz is a good start as a regular cast member and behind the scenes field agent and she can be probably a great Number One too, the trouble is who's next and what he or she can do ?

P.S.: No more holographic reflections of your own character please, there are so many already that may be about to became unionized and start to ask for more power switches and mobile emitters.

Strong Proponent of Comics going Digitalized you say : is that kind of thinking that made Bio-Dreads like Soaron and Blastarr proud (i hope the nerd reference is not too ancient geekery for you but the in-joke still fits like a glove, indulge yourself and Google It please).

Worthless they say ??? Coward Faceless Scumsuckers, i don't know how can you still allowed this kind of tasteless dickery goes along so far.

Lewis your are probably braver than and with a mind set discipline that rivals Leonard Nimoy himself (and he dares to direct William Shatner twice, he is braver than i thought).

I would like to defy you for a face to face on line duel on the MMORPG of your preference anytime you may be available because :

A) Called that Channel as Awesome is well deserved;
B) You guys are an inspiration, anything else good coming from that is an direct consequence of your hard work and quality services;
C) A Face to Face on Real Life and Real Time demands a budget beyond my wildest dreams;
and D) Despite the fact you live in the slightest at the left corner State closer to the infamous Wisconsin's Slave Salt Mines of The Eternal Frozen North of Doom, that doesn't mean Minnesota is not freaking cold as well because is just slightly at the left on the map, Thanks God i live in the far South of the South where snow is the stuff of the legend.

Back In Topic : how many of the "New" 52's survive your scrutiny so far and remain as desirable comics to be buy it, keep it and read it ?

Can you provide a list when and if you have time please ? Thanks in Advance.

P.S.: Captain Power and The Soldiers of the Future could had been the one and only Real American Power Rangers instead of the actual stock footage rippers and that's a shame.

quoting :I'm liking Teen Titans,...okay that's reasonably fine...

though sometimes I need to remind myself that itIS Teen Titans since it's so different from all the teams that have come before. ...still reasonable considering the fair criticism and the fan fact factor card you can pull out of your sleeve...

I am curious about the Kid Flash scenes, though, and I agree on the coolness of Kyle's rainbow status. ...that single word made me speechless, you must be the living incarnation of criticism fairness, i don't know why DC didn't hired you yet. You probably can be a good lawyer if you want and i really meant it...

There is an outburst of words coming from my mind right now but since you decide to keep the TAIS alive and well i will consider the Peace Treaty Agreement as a precedent guideline for the kind of criticism i allowed my self to deliver when your opinions about some comics rivals the opinion of guys like let's say Michael Bay about his own movies.

Every person has the right to have their own opinion and i will keep mine to my self because you made me speechless with just one word.

Quoting Captain Kirk on Wrath of Khan :COOOOOLLLLNESS!!!!

Probably thanks to the lack of time looks like you forget JLI #3, not that i really liked by the way.

Looks like the story is finally getting itself on track despite inherent structural flaws like Greedo shots first and PR Eextraordinaire and Wall Street Poster Boy of the Certain Doom aka Booster Gold is the appointed team leader by reasons beyond my ability to link the missing dots.

I wonder what you have to say about the issue when you have the time for it.

Just to made it clear i like Booster Gold and i am a fan of classic JLI, i just don't like the way the New 52's version has been written so far and i am not against bright colors either but ...grinding teeths... a Rainbow ...clenching jaw... Lantern ???

*add your favorite righteous indignation picture here*

That's what Clearly Loudly at All We have to say : "No!"

I know Lewis probably didn't forget to check the storylines he liked Alex.

We just didn't listen or read anything he has to say about JLI #3 yet and i blame his lack of time on that for do it so and that's ok because he has a lot of work to do on keeping this show just going on.

Lewis is just a human being limited by the laws of physics.

Nothing like some New 52's characters who should have die already several times fighting against overwhelming odds in a monthly basis like Tim Drake, Ollie...something, i forget his real name despite the characters CoOLlNeeSSS..argh, Barbara Gordon, Bruce Wayne, and a few others i didn't read yet and those are just the "HUMANE" ones, image what they have in store for the metahumans who are NOT FROM KRYPTON!!!

I know, i know, those are comic books, and as everybody knows a well regulated fictional environment being necessary to the security of a free state of mind, the right of the people to keep a little bit of suspension of disbelief shall not be infringed.

And even keeping that in mind i have to deal with Batgirl hitting the door of a car with her butt in full impact and walk away in high heels like nothing happened except a few ribs broken ??? No Way !

Once i ask if everybody was from Krypton now but i guess i was wrong, they are not from Krypton, they are from Warner Brothers and therefore everybody is subject to Wile E. Coyote sort of reality and physical endurance now, the writers can do whatever they want except killing the main character because if they die you can't torture them anymore.

Torture dead people is not sadistic, is necrophiliac and necrophilia is for perverts only.

If you are a pervert go to TMC, Warner Brothers only deals with healthy sadistic producers and the masochist audiences who follows them urging for the next big hit.

Back on topic :

Lewis, if you don't say or write anything about issue #something of the A,B or C storyline that means you drop the book and is not following anymore ? And if is that the case which ones are you still buying and reading ?

Answering my own question and briefly reviewing the whole TAIS so far Lewis reviewed all New 52's #1's comic books then drop away more than half of them and so far at the beginning of the reboot crap third month only 6 comics deserved any kind of attention.

Despite any schedule improvements i guess you are going to keep things this way Lewis unless of course a miracle happen, DC Comics take over the world and Frank Miller give up drawing and writing to become a farmer in some lost Amish community around the Wastelands of the Frozen North American Glacier Lakes of Eternal Certain Doom know as MidWest America and Canada - my own country is known stereotypically as a Wastelands of Humid Tropical Jungles of Eternal Certain Doom know as Brazil and some latino non-united states at the left corner of the map, free yourself to mock about.

Anyway i going taking a shot my self, i will read all New 52's from #1 and ahead and see how many i'm going to following and how many i'm gonna keep reading just because i love to hate them.

The tasks ahead are :

how many comics an average guy can read on a regular basis without going nuts ?

As rules i'm going to read them all digitally, cover to cover versions if i can find it on line and my job, family and social life and home chores must not suffer any delay in order to "simulate" a Lovhaugish environment of 24/7 busyness and resolute entertain's man Craftmanshipment - i guess i bend a few grammar rules here.

Let's see what may be done and report later.

Meanwhile : Lewis, do you have any plans to readKnights of the Living Dead #01 ? Looks like the kind of thing you would like take a sneak peek.
