Kodansha Comics June digital-first debuts
By Dustin Cabeal
None of these titles really grabbed my attention and I doubt we'll see review copies so you're on your own on whether to read these or not. If you do, come back here and let us know in the comments. Believe me, I'll check... okay actually my email will tell me, but same thing.
Don't Confuse The New Lieutenants of Metal With The Bronze Age Lieutenants of Metal... or Something
By Dustin Cabeal
I will read this because Ulises Farinas is a unique voice in comics. That said, sometimes that unique voice can leave all his work feeling the same. Point in case, when I read the preview (see below) I got the same vibe I did with his last two or three comics. That doesn't mean it's a bad read or that it won't be enjoyable. With any creator, you want to see them continue to expand and create while maintaining their voice and not get stuck in the same type of story over and over. Is that the case here? Find out in July... supposedly on the 4th.
Lion Forge Launches "Caracal" Imprint... That's "Caracal" With Three "A's"
By Dustin Cabeal
I'm trying something new in which I'm still just posting press releases, but because I'm not always going to be first or on the same day, I'll instead try to give some of my thoughts with the press release. If you don't want those, keep scrolling.
The first thing I have to say about this is that the name is not one that I think most people, let alone middle schoolers will instantly know and not struggle with. Don't ask me to say it, I won't get it, and if a bunch of MS'ers can then shit, our public schools have improved... and also utterly failed me. The next is that while Lion Forge is killing it on the market and growing quickly compared to other publishers, I worry that they have too many imprints and that it might eventually backfire on their brand. Its the norm of sorts with comics right now, but how long until it dilutes the brand? I wonder these things even if I don't have the analytical data to back any of it up.
Liefeld Gets The Monies By Embracing Every Joke About Him and Creates A Character Called "The Pouch"
By Dustin Cabeal
I have said this numerous times on the now-defunct CBMFP; Rob Liefeld is one of the smartest men in comics. He's second only to Stan Lee in getting fucking paid. Why? Because as much as he's bagged on, the dude gets paid, embraces jokes about himself and turns it into paydays. I mean The Pouch is just fucking Cable... made of pouches... and we all know that fucking Liefeld can draw the shit out of some pouches. Shit, it might even help him draw feet if he just pretended they were pouches, to begin with. I am not encouraging anyone to buy this variant. I know you all will still, so it doesn't matter what I say and that's why Liefeld wins in the end, morbid curiosity and the illusion of value. I'm just here to say "Kudos" to Liefeld because I saw this shit and was like, "you've done it again." And if it didn't line Liefeld's pockets, I would actually get this just because of Michel Fiffe.
