You're waiting to get to issue #60 for Jim's amnesia letter, and I'm patiently-anxiously waiting for you to get to issue #62 'cause I have a piece of artwork (of Sandman) on The Drawing Board-Fan Art page as a 1st runner-up!
Man. I had completely forgotten about Untold Tales of Spider-Man. I just loved that series. So solid.
The oversized Omnibus is all of it. And Pat’s art is exquisite at that larger print size!
The omnibus was re-printed last year. Includes Busiek's Amazing Fantasy 16-18 as well.
Speaking of which, I recently brought a bunch of comics into work that I now own in collected editions or got in random grab bags and started handing them out and placing them all over to try and proselytize new readers. My supervisor grabbed some and brought them home for her youngest. He's never had actual comic issues, just some YA (and younger) graphic novels. She says he's been reading them each night. Seems to love Spider-Man, Thor and Green Lantern thanks to the movies and getting more and more into the comics. I figure, why not give him some of my 90s stash of Untold Tales now that I own the omnibus?
Binging these Wizard episodes like it's Netflix
Thank you Jim and Ed for returning to these Wizard Kayfabe Videos. The Videos which made you both UA-cam Darlings...
Give a second look at Paul Pelletier's work guys.... his artwork is amazing. His run on Guardians of the Galaxy with Abnett and Lanning is beautiful. His designs are the inspiration for all the Guardians films.
Come for wizard, stay for the other 900 videos of content!
First time seeing dc property on the cover
Always rocking with the good years guys :)
Man I cried a bit when Jim just flipped past that 4 page Marvel Metal ad. I want a whole video breaking down the Marvel Metal series haha.
Perhaps Dave Sim's "Guide to Self Publishing" is worth a look.
These look at old Wizard magazines are FANTASTIC !! Keep it up 👌
The Adrian Tomine part was super inspiring and relatable. Thanks!
Mamaaa,
killed market cap,
Speculation went to my head, pulled my trigger,
Now it's dead
Mamaaa, gold foil edition,
But no one's gone and thrown it all away
Mama, oooh,
Didn't mean to make you cry,
There's just no way I could've sold them at all,
Variant, variant as if nothing really matters.
I dont know if you guys have mentioned this but I just learned that Gareb Shamus is trying to make it as a painter in the contemporary art scene in NYC and my brain melted a little bit
I picked up a few of Tomine's xeroxed & stapled Optic Nerves in 93 (I think?) that he'd placed in a local shop. I really liked what he was doing and sent him a check for the rest of the issues. I was so happy to see him land a title for Drawn & Quarterly in 95. In 2021 it was announced that his "Killing and Dying" is being adapted to film.
It’s funny because I don’t read comics anymore but I have all my old comics in a box in my basement, but not my issues of Wizard. I was going through my collection and it looks like I stopped buying stuff in 1997, but I don’t really have any recollection of these past couple Wizard issues from 1995. So I’m like Jim, I can’t figure out if I was still reading Wizard at this time 😁
Think it was in an issue of Howard the Duck that Ms Marvel said she got her stretchy powers from eating a hamburger from one of those Skrull cows...
Man, Great way to start a Friday!
Garab Shamus ( Wizard Magazine ) = Tony Khan ( All Elite Wrestling )
Let's Hear The Shoot!
A ransomware attacking creating scarcity of Red Room sounds all too perfect.
Oh back to the "classics" !
waiting for that Shoot Interview with Tom Palmer Jr... make it happen! :)
Amen
I have to tell you, that months Palmer’s Pick’s messed me up. I panicked and was never right again. But I had a lot going on in my head, that was the real reason of course. But the article brought the real! And you guys are right. You had to forgo a “normal” life and chain yourself to the art table. I didn’t have that in me.
Oh man, you guys have GOT to get the first 7 or 8 issues of Star*Reach. Starlin, Chaykin, early Sim, lots of other greats doing proto-Heavy Metal sci fi/fantasy.
I relate to the mail subscription
92-93 I still subscribed to several Marvel titles
Big fan of you two and love this channel. I will say, I think you should watch some Linus Tech Tips just to see how he wives promos and keeps engagement. It's important to sell the books but if you want people to listen to the end.
I loved Tom Grummet on Robin back in the day, but this cover is terrible.
I was curious so I just Just read Punx for a 90s valiant comic it was really good they make fun of understanding comics and other tropes of 90s comics while still having a kinda cyberpunk storyline underneath and Giffens art is awesome not quite Trencher but really nice to look at.
Can I go back when comics were readable
Samureeeeeeeeee is just too good to be true.
Did Jim do envelope art for the letter he doesn't remember sending to wizard? :)
Are we headed for another bust, without the boom? DC Comics is exclusively distributed by Lunar Comics distribution. Lunar has also agreed to distribute 2 or 3 small publishers on a non-exclusive basis. Marvel has partnered with Penguin Random House; Diamond still handles Marvel but gets them from P/RH and thus can't match their discount to retailers. If Diamond folds, all the independent publishers will be hoping their numbers are sufficient for the 2 remaining distributors to feel it's worth their while to handle their books.
Greg Capullo's tutorials were way better than any of the finished work he was putting out at the time. That guy improved at a terrifying rate, though..
I literally just bought this at my local comic/thrift store for $4
1:01:38 I’m triggered HaHa Capullo’s revamp design is sick as Hell! But you’ll both check out of the book before issue 32 right?
Have you guys thought about interviewing Busiek, Pulido or Giffen?
You should do an episode on Jim Woodring’s hilarious Jabba the Hutt series.
What? That's a thing? This, I must see....
It's amazing how many times I come back for a few months only to leave again after another Starman joke. Later jokers.
