Hawkeye #11

By
Man, just when you thought Hawkeye couldn't get any more awesome, the Pizza Dog issue comes along and might have been one of the best comics I've ever read.  Why can't this series be biweekly like all the other Avengers books?  If you want a lesson in sequential storytelling without dialogue, this is the one to pick up.

    Guess I'm putting this series on my hit list soon, still waiting for the mail to deliver Wolverine Season One

    Marvel's three best series right now: Daredevil, Hawkeye and Captain Marvel. None of them A-listers, yet somehow they're all Avengers.

    The book will never be biweekly because the artist drawing it is slow as fuck and can barely keep a monthly schedule. And Marvel knows that people are buying it mainly for the art, meaning that they can't put a faster artist on the book so it can come out biweekly....

    Captain Marvel is crap, tolerable only because it's still better than the abortion that was the Brian Reed Ms Marvel series.

    They should just fucking kill Carol and stick her into the fridge and be done with it. Give the Captain Marvel name back to Monica Rambeau, who should never of been stripped of the name to begin with.

    A lousy 80's character that only got any good after Warren Ellis turned her into a farce.

    Monica was the second Captain Marvel. Led the Avengers in the 1980s and was an awesome strong female character who had a cool visual power-wise and was absolutely shitted on in the 1990s when they stripped her of the Captain Marvel name for that piece of crap Genis.

    I subscribe to Hawkeye through the mail from Midtown Comics, so I won't get this issue for probably about a week, but I've been hearing great things about it. I loved Francavilla's issue recently and wouldn't mind Francavilla and Aja splitting art duty on this book. Can I get some spoiler talk real quick, but who else was seriously depressed when Grills died? I mean, that was the worst! That month had a lot of deaths in comics, (Robin, Cliff Baker, Abby Arcane) but Grills' hit me the hardest. I was so sad.

    Fraction has been killing it lately and he's also working with some of the greatest comic book artists ever. Allred, Bagley, Aja, Chaykin (on Satellite Sam) am I forgetting someone?

    Hmmmm. Read Avengers all through the 80s (even the Dr Druid days.) Don't remember her. At all. Must not have been particularly memorable.

    And Peter David's Captain Marvel series was one of the best, multi-textual works ever. Sorry man.

    Is there a cure for shit taste?

    The only reason people gave a fuck about PAD's Captain Marvel was the fact that he was allowed to use Rick Jones and Marlo in the book, where they were given center stage and effectively made the book an INO Captain Marvel comic, where PAD instead, basically used the book to continue what he was doing with Rick Jones and Marlo in Hulk, before he was forced to jetison them due to editorial fucking up the comic on him in his last couple of years on the book.

    And it says something about how widely reviled Genis was, that Fabian N. ended up having Baron Zemo dismembering the fucker and tossing his remains across time and space....

    Guess the whole "I'm aware of everything and responsible for everything, and its driving me into insanity. No, wait, I'm not really insane, I just wish I were so I can avoid responsibility" and sons trying to figure out what happens when you can't fill your father's shoes subtext was a little too heady for you.

    Its ok, it happens. Here, I have a ball…
