Between The Staples

And now for the triple win in the “Which editor was smoking what?” category along with “There are apparently no new ideas out there” and “Lord, we have a king of the lazy imaginations” I give you the tie of everyone who thought this was a wow wizz idea and green lit the bloody thing into my local store. Civil War made me long for some brave young lad to stand up and burn Marvel to its foundations, this makes me want to follow along behind salting the earth.

Yes Robert I liked the movies and will go line for line, scene for scene on fan boy ‘OMG that was so Awsome’ gushing, but this is molestation.

Okay, super, it’s a good comic, I’m happy you had a awesome time reading it Zeek because that’s what comics should be about. Having a good time reading.

But the base idea for it was ‘lifted’ from an existing product. My difficulty with that is if a writer is capable of writing a good comic, with all the bells and whistles, strong characterizations, witty dialogue, a plot with few holes then that same writer should be able to come up with a unique way of setting the story, not just taking a proven idea and shellacking his additions onto it.

I do realize that in it’s current media form comics have been around for a big damn long time and that sometimes you just can’t find the new, but I want to hope that people will realize that such an overt act of laziness as the base idea for the telling of this comic is unworthy of them and their dollars.
