i really really liked that many of the stories in the volume were one-issue wonders! i guess i've gotten used to extremely drawn-out plot arcs at this point (viz daredevil again... which is like the slowest arc ever... although i dig that too) so there's something really refreshing about it. i've always been on the fence in terms of narrative compression (largely because grant morrison is always getting props for it & i tend to think that despite his other skillz he's not very good at it) but it really works here. or maybe this isn't "compression" at all but just old-school comix storytelling.
also: funny!
also: i love the art! guess i better not get used to it huh

There's a lot of talk about his Spiderman above, and I like the way that his JJJ is the opposite - a lot of dumb and crazy stuff has happened to Peter Parker over the last 40 years, so you basically have to pick and choose or end up burying him under the weight of it. Whereas with JJJ the more you pile on the funnier.

Should I continue this thread to talk about the Tas Mas vehicle. Or go to MCU.Anyway, quite deeply fun. I do like a bit of Tas Mas. She's awfully good. & I'm sue she loves being called Tas Mas . Well anyway, glad this is another good tv show from Marvel. Was i seeing a LatinX element in the credits. Interesting if so.
― Stevolende, Friday, 19 August 2022 09:34 (two years ago) link
THat is to say, looking at end credits I was thinking there was LatinX presence in the crew etc, & pretty female.Which is good. Hoping that inclusivity and actual diversity is rising. I was watching a lot of the Film Fatales webinars a couple of years ago which seemed to indicate it was. not sure how clear a lens that would be though. May be its own gaze or something.
Now seeing that Head Writer is Asian American. which is cool in itself.

Anyone been reading the current (Rainbow Rowell) series? I preordered the Vol. 1 trade on spec… been itching to read something new, and it sounded potentially good.
― Panda bear, my gentle friend (morrisp), Sunday, 21 August 2022 01:03 (two years ago) link
^Vol. 1 was good – cute and offbeat – and Vol. 2 (which just came out) is even better… kind of next-level, actually, in a few respects. Highly recommended!
