After reading the above post it occurs to me that it’s not just dyslexia

Let me put it this way, when you’re watching a Monty Python skit are you reminded of The Three Stooges?

Holy cow, you ain’t kidding. There is some seriously GORGEOUS graphic novel art out there. That’s half the reason I’d pimp the “Suicide Kings” GN — sure, it’s Deadpool, but it’s a very awesomely rendered Deadpool.

There’s not always that much detail, ya know?

…Makes me want to watch Unbreakable again. Listen to Sammy L talk about comic art quality versus kid store cartoonism. Sweeeeet.

hrmmm…we seem to get only so many generations of threads. anyway, there had better be a graphic novel setting of the ipad or i’d only by one for a frisbee/trivet! i thought it would have the pinch = zoom out and inverse pinch = zoom in function the iphone has. IMO, it’d be pretty cool to blow up a single box on a page to the whole screen, well at least for the graphic novels with good art, but there’s no shortage of those nowadays

Replying here, since I can’t seem to reply to your reply:

Hmmm…I wonder if you COULD get the graphic novel on ipad? I honestly don’t know if it’s available that way. I can only imagine that the comic book dialog(ue) would be too small to read on an ipad screen…?

As for instant access, I totally got mine from the local (new) comic book store that I instantly fell in love with upon entering. Unfortunately, I’ll have to order anything else, because I pretty much cleared him out of Deadpool stuff, individual comic and graphic novel alike. *sigh*

Sorry – went to my stash. The graphic novel is a little pricey, so you might want to check out “The Amazing Spider-Man” issue 611 instead (you can just google “amazing spiderman 611″ and it pops right up). It’s like $3 (cover price) as compared to like $18 and it introduces Mamageddon.

I really, really want to hear Mamageddon. Curiosity doesn’t even begin to cover the depth of my need to know.

Dude, while I hesitate to admit to anything resembling girlishness, I must admit that the adage “Chicks dig scars” applies. Heh.

And seriously, read up on some Deadpool, AKA the merc with a mouth, AKA the regeneratin’ degenerate. DO NOT, and I repeat, DO NOT watch the origins of Wolverine movie. Okay, Ryan Reynolds does an awesome job at the Wade Wilson aspect of Deadpool, but then FOX took over and totally screwed up the post-added-healing-factor Deadpool completely.

Wait for the movie coming out in probably 2012. I’m seriously. Still Ryan Reynolds, but with better scripting because he’s truly a fan and wants to do Pool-o-vision and the arguing voices from the comic books. *snerk* LOTS of fun.

If you just want a quickie introduction to such bliss, pick up the “Deadpool: Suicide Kings” graphic novel. It’s the one with a shot-up teddy bear on the front.

Ah. Good times. And yes, I am a geek. *polishes geek badge*

I like to think I’m good company. I’m pretty sure you are. We should start a club. Between the two of us, we’ll have at least a dozen members.
