Mike Mignola pre-Hellboy bibliography/chronology. Having got my Hulks today, thought about the journey he’s been on to Hellboy. Rocket Racoon. Mid 1985. Very few of Mignola’s style in effect yet. Mad to think where that character has ended up. 1/1 https://t.co/yJuiIqgXBL

@zyblonius Also, I got Riddler which was ok. Definitely not fun though. Curious about Howard Porter on Bane and the Clayface one by Xermanico who I basically know nothing about but think I saw some Batman by.Then there’s Ras. By Tom Taylor who I like but Ivan Reís who I’m indifferent about

@KrsJams But he’s a “local colour” guy. And a painter in his own right. And the colours were sprung on him without consultation. We don’t challenge George Lucas’s later choices about Star Wars

Dylan Horrocks. Horrocks wrote Batgirl on the most amazing small run with Leonardi. But he’s on this list for his amazing Hicksville book. Imagine a town dedicated to comics, a Mecca where creatives go to relax and realise comic dream projects.Then a 90s guy who steals from there https://t.co/EWWDYjWw1p

If you’re a fan of JRJr/Silvestri era X-Man and haven’t read Marvel Knights X-Men, seek it out. It’s a love letter to that era by Brahm Revel (Turtles, Guerillas) and colours by Cris Peter (Casanova). Revel is a storyboard guy and it shows. Beautiful, clear action and character https://t.co/DpXlez96uB
