Now, is this better or worse than ALL-STAR BATMAN?
I think better. Maybe.
― Matt M., Wednesday, 9 March 2011 20:59 (thirteen years ago) link
All-Star Batman was readable and had a story and was in English, so it seems not very crazy in comparison now.
― mh, Wednesday, 9 March 2011 21:57 (thirteen years ago) link
yes but this is way BETTER

It pleases me to think that we're not even half way through the series.
May your adventures be long and bounteous, naked Batman.

7 amd 8 have been resolicited and the rest have been cancelled tho
― dom p's rusty Nuts (sic), Tuesday, 15 March 2011 03:51 (thirteen years ago) link
The news reports I've encountered say the orders have been cancelled - standard practice in ref. to whatever # of copies the shops have requested - not the series.
Though I'd love to see whatever resolution Adams would conjure up on the quick. Maybe it'll involve ghosts.

― My Boyfriend Could Be A Spanish Man (R Baez), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 01:36 (thirteen years ago) link
Yay! Maybe they'll collect the first chunk in a trade to coincide.
Maybe I should just hold out for the Absolute edition.
― EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 01:40 (thirteen years ago) link
Reading the summary, it's Neal Adams' own BATMAN R.I.P.!
Plus: NOTED USE OF THE WORD "ODYSSEY". Look out!

Did they renumber this to coincide with the DC universe restart? That's hilarious!

I saw they're making a Batman t-shirt with an image from this on the front. I'd totally buy it if it was hirsute Bruce, but alas it is just running Batman.
― EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 02:37 (thirteen years ago) link
If it was hirsute Bruce talking about being on a t-shirt in a non-sequitur manner, I would wear it every day.
I'd only buy one shirt, but still wear it daily because being smelly and weird kind of fits with the tone of the comic

man even the synopsis makes no sense
― No Broehner (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 18:18 (thirteen years ago) link
i was talking about this series with a friend while we were in a comic store and the guy behind the counter had clearly not read it and clearly didn't know adams and couldn't figure out why i was so excited by its existence
― generous doler out of lollies (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 21:01 (thirteen years ago) link
how can you work at a comic store and not know Adams
that seems like working at a jewelry store and not knowing about bracelets

he interrupted my diatribe to ask how it was any different from any other cape/tightfest and i showed him the iceaxe splash page and he glanced at it, shrugged and said it didn't seem any different from morrison so go figure
― generous doler out of lollies (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 21:04 (thirteen years ago) link
well there's the thing where Morrison's sentences all seem to be related to each other, for starters

― Philip Nunez, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 21:09 (thirteen years ago) link
sure, but Morrison's stories tend to be crazy in the sense of "I can't believe he just did that", not in the sense of "what the fuck does this mean"
― a variable (sic) "League of Nations" (DJP), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 21:13 (thirteen years ago) link
eh I dunno some of his stuff can be pretty oblique, especially if you aren't paying close attention to seemingly minor details. otoh the clerk's comment just seems wrong
― No Broehner (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 21:16 (thirteen years ago) link
maybe Morrison is in control of his madness, where Adams is not
― No Broehner (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 21:17 (thirteen years ago) link
Morrison does a lot of big picture crazy where all the details really only make sense if you look at the whole storyline (and have a deep understanding of kabbalah).
Adams is just nutso
― mh, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 21:18 (thirteen years ago) link
the only Morrison thing I've read that I thought didn't make sense no matter how many times I read it was Mr Miracle and that was only because it relied heavily on assumed knowledge outside of the book; even Shining Knight had a massive "A-HA!" moment that made the first two issues intelligible in retrospect
