I didn't appreciate that in the Daredevil movie, not only was there no Karen Page, but they gave us Elektra instead of Electro. I haven't seen the director's cut, which everyone says is better, but overall I thought they did a competent job with the film, if a little too serious for the feel I thought the comic purveyed. With all the artists who pencilled Daredevil, we can get a glimpse by the cover what a Jack Kirby version would look like. The King is still the king, but I don't see his style for Daredevil.Jim Barwisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06621993116774388708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6830827465735526826.post-18530576433473820912011-10-19T17:16:41.481-07:002011-10-19T17:16:41.481-07:00I have to agree with Professor Seabrook as I too w...I have to agree with Professor Seabrook as I too was left scratching my head at the landmark issue designation for Mysterio, a good, but far from great bad guy. He looks like he has the potential with the mysterious marble head and green cloak. Still, I can't seem to recall him mixing it up with too any other villains besides Spidey. <br /><br />Regarding witch series is worse between Ant-Man/Giant-Man or the Torch: When both titles suck as bad as these two have, I guess it comes down to whomever has the super-power you would prefer. I like Giant-Man just because the character reminds me of The Amazing Colossal man, albeit a far wimpier version. <br /><br />Hard to get worked up over a guy made of flames unless maybe you are a pyro that enjoys running around, setting abandoned buildings on fire, then getting your jolly's waiting for the fire dept. to come put it out.Jockohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16292833295819266389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6830827465735526826.post-69771780788415913442011-10-19T14:48:37.046-07:002011-10-19T14:48:37.046-07:00So much for the old memory.

At least Sue Storm got better looking as the series progressed.Jack Seabrookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02216640325305820140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6830827465735526826.post-12188796397655720452011-10-19T14:29:56.203-07:002011-10-19T14:29:56.203-07:00Professor Jack-

Jealousy in the ranks of professors! I've never had to correct a professor with as many letters after his name, but here goes: you'll have to wait 16 months to see the wedding of Reed and Sue in Fantastic Four Annual #3. I can't tell you what happens until then. That would be spoiling the fun. If you read Professor Jim's 30,000 word synopsis of Journey Into Mystery #105, then you know what he was up to.Peter Enfantinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04317575598411394944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6830827465735526826.post-59355008652369732092011-10-19T14:16:17.239-07:002011-10-19T14:16:17.239-07:00Did Spidey get a Landmark Issue designation just b...Did Spidey get a Landmark Issue designation just because Mysterio is a cool villain? As I recall, Reed and Sue finally tied the knot in issue #100, so you've got a LONG way to go. I have not seen that issue in about 40 years, but if memory serves, Subby tried to interfere. As the designated Human Torch reader, I take issue with Giant Man being the comic most deserving of ridicule. And where was Professor Jim when we had the staff meeting re Daredevil? Out repairing his inflatable Jane Foster doll?Jack Seabrookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02216640325305820140noreply@blogger.com
