Amph What was the last comic book you read?

Star trek The Last Generation. Myriad Universe comic. A parallel history in which Kirk could not safe the Efrosian prez and now the Klingons took over the Federation. 7/10

 

Daredevil #9. Mark Waid's Daredevil is either the best or second best thing coming out right now, depending on who you ask, and frankly, you ought to be reading this. The art's great, the writing's great, the mystery's intriguing, I could just go on, and on, and on... Plus, it's one of the few big two books you can read guilt-free, since Bill Everett died well before he could get screwed over.

 

I never liked superhero comics.

 

Last night I read Winter Soldier#1 and #2 back to back. It has a gorilla...with a minigun...and a jetpack...who screams "Death to America!" in Russian. It may be the greatest thing ever.

 

That's by Brubaker, right? I really ought to be reading that.

 

Yup. It's really a continuation of the same Cap story he's been writing for the past 5 years or so. I wasn't originally going to pick it up because I was pretty frustrated by Bucky's death and almost immediate resurrection in Fear Itself, but there was a lot to be frustrated about with Fear Itself so I didn't let it stop me from enjoying a good book. And it is quite good so far.

 

Yeah, well, Fear Itself is, in hindsight, shaping up to be a kind of Marvel equivalent of Zero Hour. Something best forgotten about as quickly as possible.

 

Star Trek asiignment Earth which is based on the episode of the same name. Its about a genetically altered human named Gary Seven who works for a misterious agency called Aegis. Their goal is to save civilisations from destroying themselves. Sevens responsability is humanity. It has 2 sidekicks, a cat who could turn into a human and Roberta lincoln her secretary. He averts a nuclear war, stops a rival time-trasveling agency from destroying Earth, destroys a clone army, tries to save nixon from being replaced by a commie agent and in the he ends not knowing if the real one survived or not. But Nixon has to resign because of Watergate anyway. 7/10 for me.

 

I think it was in... 7.1? I seem to recall 4chan's comic book board exploding over that issue.

 

It's been awhile...
