Ask a Question, Get an Answer Week #3


Weekly Feature where me and Xylon ask a question and we look to fandom and pros for answers/ Stay tuned, every now and then you may see a familiar name,

Question of the week: Favorite Super-hero costume ever?
Answers


Nick St. Amant: Golden Age Sandman, Jack Knight-era Starman...you get my drift...:-p

Nick St. Amant: oh, Rorschach, too. Gotta love the inkblot bask!

Noel Luperon: Ultimate Thor; from campy to awesome.

Stephen Ganschow: Obviously...we ALL know it's BLUR from Smallville...! JK.....!::stop hating me in your minds!::

Damion Hendricks: Classic Namor with the pants and the vest.

Chris Striker Dalpe: Ultimate Thor, Midnighter and Red Robin.

Aristides Iliopoulos: Classic Namor to me is the green undies and nay ankle wings. I am a fan of the Golden Age. For me it's Hourman. Love the yellow, black and red...with the hood.

Carlos Pedro: Spider-man.

Nick St. Amant: I'll second Midnighter and Spider-man. To add to that: The Flash (Barry Allen/Wally West version), Ultimate Captain America (WW2 version), and Kick-Ass (it has a gaudy charm to it).

Jon Carroll: Gonna go with DC's Captain Marvel. Great colors, nice iconography and the half cape brings it all together.

Mark Morales: The Hal Jordan Green Lantern costume. Simple and Sleek. The original Billy Batson Capt. Marvel is great too!

Michael Rea: Night Crawler and original Colossus.

Ask a Question, Get an Answer Week #2


Weekly feature where me and Xylon ask a question and we look to fandom and pros for answers. Stay tuned, every now and then you may see a familiar name.


Question of the week: Would you buy 128 page black and white newsprint anthologies of new comics (not reprints) from Marvel and DC for $7.99?


Answers

Stephan Ganschow: No...probably not. I would if it was say...$2.50 though!

Xylon Otterburn: Why yes I would.

John Carroll: From Marvel, Probably not. From DC...Hell's Yeah!

Aris: I would definitely pick it up. Then again I'm a comic book Mikey...I'll buy anything.

Hank Cannon: Hell Yes I would buy it!

Marc Deering: Yep:

Russell Hillman: Depends how interested I am in the content. I'd give it a go, definitely.

Todd Gross: I think it would depend on the content and creators involved. I really don't see top talent being on a book like this for very long, if at all. If nothing else, it would be a great place to break in new and up-&-coming talent. I don't see it staying for the run though.

Steve Higgins: Yes I would.

I appreciate all the folks on Facebook that responded, next week we will run an Olivia Munn question...just kidding...maybe not...nom nom nom...

Ask a Question, Get an Answer Week #1



Weekly feature where me and Xylon ask a question and we look to fandom and pros for answers. Stay tuned, every now and then you may see a familiar name.


Question of the week: In what order do you read your comics? Favorites first or last?


Answers


Damion Hendricks: First. Honestly, sometimes I don't even get to the mediocre one.


Lonny Chant: Always. Favorites first.



Aris: I go the other way and let the suspense build. I was going notes when Siege and Blackest Night were out.

Hank Cannon: Favorites last. I tend to want to end on a high note.

John Layman: I read Walking Dead first.

Dion Bickman: I only buy stuff I like. Then I read them in alphabetical order...I have a taste of the good old OCD. LOL.

Brandon Thomas: Always save the best books for last. Don't read books by the same creator back to back. Alternate between solo and team books. But that's just me...

Steve Higgins: Alphabetical

Russell Hillman: I put the best ones at either end of the stack and B-list ones in the middle. I try to avoid reading ones by the same author or starring the same characters back to back.

Stephen Ganschow: I take it week by week. It partly depends on what I bring home. For example-I intentionally wait to buy Amazing Spider-man until there is an entire arc in head - as to lessen the blow of how horrid it is. Even then, I get the arc and wait another month before I read it...as I have to prepare myself for the let down of Brand New Day, thanks to the Epic Fail that is one more day.

Chris Batista: Favorites last.
Graham Scherl: I used to set up my entire stack from "meh" to perceived "must read", and it's only recently so I can get spoilers and reviews up for those must read books immediately.

Chet Presley: Best for last. Always makes them that much more worthwhile.
Will Eco: Normally it's "save the best for last". It depends on the story arc. For stuff that I buy for eyecandy artwork and could care less about story, I get out of the way early as well. :p

Pete Hernandez: Favorites last.

Thanks to all my friends and pros on Facebook who take the time to answer these questions.
