Comic book word talk. The first. January. 2014. part 1 of 1.


Backs.


Comic book quickies then ? Ayes ? Cools.


I'm pretty sure these comics came out this week. But you know. Time. That whole thing. Not really sure how it works any more at the best of times. Then big x-mass hit and I have no idea. Like its Sunday as I sit here and jab my hand sausages on the keyboard to type this outs but it may as well be Tuesday or some shit for all it feels like.


So ayes. Comics. Cracking stuff. Lotta stuff going on in them. I think. Probably. Its been awhile since I did a proper run down of a weeks comics. Stuffs apparently changed man. I was operating under the impression marvel were the hated mad men . Running about naked in some field somewhere killing off beloved cultural icons and replacing them with mad scientists. But of course. I was wrongly wrongers on the most basic of basic fields. Fields of. Like. Reference . Not sure what I'm trying to say any more. Basically folk hate DC and not marvel. Well people prolly hate both. But people are hella hateful hipster fucks. So that's a given. I can kinda sorta see what folk are saying about DC . I can. They seem to have weird relations with there creative teams. And theres been a slew of cancellations. Then there's the out right dickish bat woman affair. Don't care though. Genuinely don't. Iv become something of a DC fan boy over the past few years. Not sure how or why. Probably just find there books more entertaining. Like marvels entertaining ayes. But in that special lunatic way we discussed before.


Comics !


The flash #26


low five ?

written by christos n. gage art by neil googe

Mmm. Good comic. Hella gid comic. Its got all this crazy amazing goodness all up in it. Goodness that I'm trying to explain here. The pages. They had this thing in them. Goodness ! Ill stop now. Well. No. ill still be talking what with this being the first entry. Barry. Allan. Full. Stops. Barry allan is a bloody machine of good times. He turns up. Dose SOMETHING. Anything. normally running but not always. And then things just tend to work out well. He's just the single most solid guy in comics. As iv very likely harped on about here before. Of course I have. There's not been a bad issues of the flash since the reboot. That could well change though. That cracking first run came to an end last month ish. So I had my reservations about this isssue. Those reservations were hella fucked up during the reading process thankfully. Because flash #26 is Barry Allen is the solidest guy ever- the issue. It helps that its just stand alone filler. This like evil pilot woman is aww going about being a thief and a killer and such. But like as a SKY PIRATE. Ayes. Perfect. Job done. Ima going hame. When I got hame I read on. And my word. The whole issue is basically look what the flash can do. Like aye he's super fast yeah. But he's also you know. Basically a god. With the most broken power set in the history of. Of. Of. Em. History ! Barrys cutting about running on CLOUDS. Straight up. Hella just running on clouds. To catch a plane. There's even a wee flash fact box there. Explaining that yes. Barry is basically god. Well worth a read. Not a jumping on on point what with it being stop gap filler so its more a stand alone treat for the senses. Sense ? Vision ? Senses I guess if you also make your own sound effects to go along with the comics. Which I of course. Totally do.

swim in the sky ! fight dah powah !!

aquaman #26

written by jeff parker art by paul pelletier and netho diaz

Ahh duuno. It was like aquaman. Its a comic. It has pages and panels and coulers and like lines and guff. I ain't in no frame of mind to judge the quaintly of anything right now. I'm still crazy buzzen from Dat flash issue. Like damn sons. Its kinda the prefect comic. That iv read. This month. Its a shame likes. Id totally put it high on my list of the best comics of 2014. but I totes wont remember it loikes in December and of course I wont make a best of list. I don't have that amount of dedication or effort in me. Don't be ridicules. Oh ayes. Aquaman. Big aquaman. Cool guy. Kinda gets hella fucked over as we well know. By popular culture and that. I likes him though. He's like. Got a trident. Annnnnnnnnnnnd. Hes a cool guy. Ayes. This issue big Arthur curry fight like a giant squid /kraken /cuthulu/ kanju beasty. Which. Aye. Of course he dose. Its an aquaman comic. Not much to report really. It was pretty dullish. Again. Like not really bigging up aquaman here as I prolly should. Its hard. Iv always said they should have taken the opportunity of the reboot to make the new 52 aquaman basically the same as he is in the brave and the bold cartoon. Big and brash life of the party legend of human being fish man thing. But naws. They went the acknowledging him as a joke route. Which . Ayes. Did work out pretty well for a while there. Mainly what with it being a goff johns book. But the goff lads hella left nows. It looks to be pretty stormy WATERS ahead for the new creative team. Yes. I'm very proud of the thing I just said. What of it.


patty cake ? is that what that hand game thing is called ?

superman unchained #5

written by scott snyder art by jim lee

Not sure if iv reported this here on the auld blog. If I have I'm sorry for repetition . I am truly sorry if there's repetition here. On the auld blog. But we have to talk about it. See lex luthor. The arch Nemesis of the man of steal. Lex lets cut about in green in purple power armour luthor. Lex luthors SUPER into papercraft. Like big lex was using papercraft things to explain shit to super man in issue one or two . Back then it was only like a page or mibby two of lex with like a pop up book style thing that he had obviously made during his time in prison. It was weird then. But like only kinda. It wasn't a big deal then. Like it wasn't charter defining. Then that last issue happened. And yeah. Lex luthor is SUPER into paper craft now. Like has these wee bone tools specially for it SUPER into it. Like his papercraft has articulation SUPER into it. Its kinda the most magical thing. I don't even want lex to be a villain now. I want his entire deal to be paper craft. I want him to just be cutting about the dc world. Being the go to papercraft guy. Teaching classes. training noobs. Sadly as aww fuck. Lex Luther the paper craft king isn't in this issue at all. Aww we get are plot points from the first transformers film/ overtones of the over arching plan of the reapers from mass effect. And superman being superman. Which ayes. I do hella appreciate that. Kinda just wanted an ish of lex carefully folding up his own set of justice league papercaft dolls. Always next ishh. Always have to hauld on the the hope.







I here comic sans upsets folk. Dont particularly get it myself.

comic book quickies 16/3/12



GREEN LANTERN #7

written by Geoff Johns art by Mike Choi

Sinestro trys to rope Hal Jordan into investigating just how INSANE the guardians have become but both he and Hal are kidnapped by the indigo tribe. See I genuinely thought this issue was pretty meh. Mainly because I felt we had done this exact same thing like six months ago. Sinestro forces Hal to be a green lantern again. Yeah the circumstances were a wee bit different last time but not by much. Hal not wanting to be a green lantern. Yeah that's just made of guhh. I get what the big goff lad is doing. Painting Jordan's use of the ring like a slight addiction. And him wanting a normal life on earth is a step forward for him. BUT THATS SOOOOOO BOARING. And of course it will never stick. The guardians are balls out insane but at this point am sure you all know that. At one point in this issue there all for killing one of there own lanterns because he might ask too many questions. Yeah. I was hoping for some buddy cop character development for auld sinestro but if I'm honest I feel he regressed a wee bit back into space Hitler mode. That was really the main thing that spoiled my enjoyment of the issue. I think Its fair to that we're all just waiting for sinestro to properly mellow out so we can have full on buddy cop action at last.



SUPERBOY #7

written by Scott Lobdell art R.B Silva

Superboy returns home to the facility ware he was created to bring the beat down to n.o.w.h.e.r.e. Yeah so superboy's pretty gid. Like iv said in the past its an oddly bipolar book. Both the plot itself and superboy as a character. One issue he's working for n.o.w.h.e.r.e and the next he's not. Though now that I think about it most issues he is working for them. Well it at least feels like he's flip flopping between working for the man and running away to freedom. He dies this week so aw well no worry's. He dose get better though. Then he dies again. But then he gets better again. So alls well with the world. Superboys not that mind blowing of a read but its still got plenty of action and that's all a really ask of a comic.


FRANKENSTEIN AGENT OF S.H.A.D.E #7

written by Jeff Lemire art by Alberto Ponticelli

Frankenstein and the creature commandos fight against the putties from power rangers and the prototype creature commandos. YEAH. So the the non sentient vaguely slave work force of shade the humanids rise up and are basically the putties from power rangers. I like this. What I don't like is shades response to this new life from that being they don't negotiate with terrorists. Meaning the just slaughter them without a second thought. Right guy I get that they tried to take over your base and that's a pretty uncool thing to do but I don't remember the humanids saying they were gonna take over the world or even if they killed anyone. Like at all. Well they probably did. But still. We all love to see putties getting beat down but shades response just seemed overly harsh and kind of set a weird tone for the issue. Like a wasn't rooting for franky and the lads. Mainly because they were being so un lad-ish.


FANTASTIC FOUR #604

written by Jonathan Hickman art by Steve Epting

Its the epic conclusion to the current mad space god saga. And I felt a little let down by it if I tell the truth. Spoilers all that happens is future franklin and Valeria save the day. That's it. To me that's just very lame. Yeah it is cool to see future franklin wielding galactus like a pokemon trainer and yes its nice to see that the world could only be save because the fantastic four are a family and if they wernt then they'd be doomed like the rest of family less reeds from other alternate universes. Its just I think we'd have all rather liked Dr doom to be the guy that saved every one. I get that doom cant do everything and be every ware. Its just that I look at the mad space gods and I'm like yeah doom could take them. Sadly the books still going for the doom is dead thing. Well he's been to hell before and we all know how that worked out. This issue was $3.99. Naw marvel. Just naw. Really don't be that guy.




AVENGERS #24

written by Brain Michael Bendis art by Daniel Acuna

Norman Osborn has all the powers ever. Lets see how that plays out for him. Well its the end of this unfortunately at times utterly hateful and insane arc. I say unfortunately because iv quite liked most of it there's just a few wee bits that just kill me. Like properly kill me. So giving Osborn all the super powers. That's really hateful. Giving Osborn the super adaptoids powers ? That somehow makes it fun. I don't know what to say. It just works. It turns him into pink hulk. Yeah that's kind of awesome. The avengers beat Osborn by touching him. That's somehow crazy awesome to me. Spider man gets a line in this issue that actually redeems this entire arc for me. Bendis you beautiful troll. As much as I loved super adaptoid pink hulk Norman Osborn I cant help wondering why marvel just wont let him be the green goblin again. Yeah the corporate pimp look sorta works for him but lex luthor has that look down to a fine art.


AVENGERS ASSEMBLE #1

written by Brian Michael Bendis art by Mark Bagley

Well there's a fourth team of avengers now and I really don't know why. Well its to cash in on the upcoming film but as of issue one thieve not yet given an in universe reason for the new team. Knowing bendis we'll find out by the time our grand kids enter high school. There was super villain that thought the hulk was only a myth. I read that and my head exploded. I don't really have any words for that. For now I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt. It is a new villain that I don't know anything about so its possible his back story involves living under a rock for most of his life. Its very pretty book and its always nice to see bendis and bagley together. Lads that they are.

comic book quickies 2/3/12

Its week five. WHAT ? How dose that work ? MIND BLOWN!!!


AVENGERS #23

written by Brain Michael Bendis art by Daniel Acuna


AGHGHGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGHGHHHHHHHHGGHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHHGHGHGHGHGHGHHGHGHGHGHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHHGHGGHGGHGHGHGHGGGGGGGGGGHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHHGHHGGHHGGHGHGGHHGGGHGHHHHGGHGHGHGHGHGHHHHGHGHGHGHGGHGHGHHGHGHGHHHHHGHGHGGHHHGHGHGHGHGHHHGHGHGHHGHGGHGHGHGHGHGHGGHGHGHGHGHHHHHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGGHHGGGHGHGHHGHGHGHGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGHGHGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGHHGHGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGHGHGHGHGGHHHGHGGHGHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHHGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHG !!!! wait didn't we do this not too long ago ? like only two weeks ago ? That's really weird. Maybe marvel just hates humanity. Yeah its still really bad. Like really painful. Which is a huge shame as there are parts of this run that are bloody amazing. The G.I joe- ness of it is something I really love. By that I mean there are a lot of amazing mooks. Like plenty of foot solders standing about waiting around for a beating. There's plenty of gid banter here and there and I was pleasantly surprised with how much of a pimp the vision is. And the art. Its so very pretty. Its just EVERYTHING to do with Norman Osborne. EVERYTHING. He may be head of world security again by the end of this issue. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. We get it bendis Americas mental. We got that years ago. STOP GOING ON ABOUT IT.


JUSTICE LEAGUE #6

written by Geoff Johns art by Jim Lee


The justice league fights the final battle against darksied. Surprisingly this was really pish. Like it was really gid and really pish. As a stand alone issue it was amazing, full of over the top action and grate art with awesome splash pages. But as the ending to the first arc of this new era and the starting point for the age of heroes it just dosent live up to the hype. I don't want to say hype because I really wasn't hyped for this issue. I was angry really for how late it was and I was all ready cynical at the book in general for how poor the first issue was. Yeah that issue had buddy cop batman and green lantern but that's ALL it had. My dislike of it comes down to how they beat darkseid. Buy reset button. Well not really but it felt like a reset button ending. Cyborg boom tubes him home. That's it really. meh. Why is cyborg on the team anyway, I mean I do like him, he is pretty cool guy after all and I do get that you have to have a wild card on every super team these days its just he kind of ruins the all star vibe there going for on the book. It just felt very rushed like they were board of it and just wanted it over and done with already. We do get a back up story about the hooded woman Pandora. It's OK. Nothing amazing and I feel it spoils her just a wee bit like it was better when we knew less about her but because of the back up it dose mean we don't get any of that making of gumff at the back, none of that first appearance batman 2011 pish. So yeah that's a wee win for humanity there.


BATMAN BEYOND UNLIMITED #1

written by Nguyen Fridolfs art by Beechen Bretfogle. Yeah.


In a bumper double issue type thing the tomorrow night returns ! First the batman of the future fights against out of town jokers then with the help of the justice league bats fights even more jokers and human animal mash ups. Aye it was all right. Nothing too amazing happens. It was two comics in one so it was damn gid value. That's a plus. It seems to be going for an all star villain cast type of thing with big name villains from the tv show being set up for future appearances and that's cool. A little desperate but still cool. It dose feature the future justice league and maybe that's a big deal for some people , well DC seems to think so anyway but they just don't do it for me, ah duno there just nothing all that stand out about them. To me they kind of dragged the last few issues of the last batman beyond series down. Aww wells it is nice to have batman beyond back !



FF #15

written by Jonathan Hickman art by Nick Dragotta

Well the kids of the FF return to earth to help activate sol's anvil the super weapon from the last issue of fantastic four and are joined by the super team power pack. Gotta say I'm still loving FF. Now I had my doubts about it when they announced that the main fantastic four book was being brought back and that FF was still carrying on as well. You know auld marvel always out for your money. But dammn has it been awesome. Yes mainly because for Dr Doom and everything he says or dose's. Sadly Dooms not in this issue and the book suffers quite badly for it. They even try to make out the Dooms dead. Aye naw pal. Still pretty fun though and hopefully not all of you dropped it as soon as fantastic four came back.

comic book quickies 9/2/12

Only three comics this week . A sad heft indeed.


 
GREEN LANTERN #6
written by Geoff Johns art by Mike Choi

Sinestro go's all lone wolf cop as Hal adjusts to normal life again in an interlude issue. Ohhh the art change. Its fair to say that its more than a wee bit jarring. Now it is a in-between issue so no big deal in the long run but it did take me out of the story just a wee bit too much. Not that the story is all that mind blowing on its own. Yeah Hal shows that he's still bad ass without the ring but by the end of the issue he's a lantern again. So yeah. Sinestro is off in space doing spacey things with space people. In space. The issue sets up that sinestro is now aware of the plan guardians of the universe to destroy the green lanterns. I imagine in his head he's all like naw little blue dudes that's MA job! One really cool point that came up was some buddy cop character development for sinestro in that he has a begrudging moment of respect for Hal. See at this point they should just make Sinestro like Dr doom currently is over in the fantastic books. You know basically a good guy. See he is the strict no nonsense half of the buddy cop duo but he's still bloody space Hitler and why he's still a green lantern makes no real sense. See doom gets away with being on the FF for two reasons. One he's Dr doom and two its been like over a year and he hasn't done anything that even looks like betraying the team. Sinestro though just hasn't got to that place yet.



SUPERBOY #6
written by Scott Lobdell art R.B Silva

Superboy fights supergirl. Aww yeah. Yup that's all I need to enjoy a comic. None of this emo-shan pish. Just fighty fighting. Is there anybody out there that dosny like this kind of thing ? Well yeah of course there is. Damn cool kids and there trendy no fighting talky comics. Makes me sick really. I do like this current superboy run but I am getting a wee bit sick of the n.o.w.h.e.r.e plot. You could say its going nowhere. Ohohohohohoho. Well played me. But yeah not digging the hole secrets and lies feel its got going on. Superboy just keeps doing what he's told by the the obviously evil organisation then starts questioning what he's doing then go's back to the evil organisation. PICK A GOD DAMN SIDE. I guess he is like two weeks old so for now I'm letting it slide. So what did destroy krypton ? Its not something iv ever thought to look up I just kinda assumed it was a natural disaster type thing but when superboy reads super girls memory's there's a text box that says the planet was ravaged by war. Weird right ? Also there was a clone uprising that's used as a plot point as superboy is a half human clone thingy or as a super girl puts it an abomination. Yeah so that krypton not as paradise like as I thought. To be fair though I'm not too up to date with superman continuity but its still a bit odd to me.



FRANKENSTEIN AGENT OF S.H.A.D.E #6
written by Jeff Lemire art by Alberto Ponticelli

Frankenstein fought in the Vietnam war. You win DC. You win the decade. There's nothing marvel can come up with that's more awesome than Frankenstein serving in nam. The issue is about franky and the creature commandos being sent to nam to assassinate col. Quantum, a very powerful Dr Manhattan like super hero that franky fought alongside during the war. He's basically red Dr Manhattan but with a lot more humanity as he eventually leaves the army as he cant take all the killing. So that's cool but in the present days he's mutated and has killed thousands after going a tad mad. It really pretty tragic as franky has to mercy kill him. Now that was only the B plot as back at base the synthetic workforce starts an uprising that's vaguely smiler to that flesh two parter story in the last season of Dr who. A DAMN fine comic that still continues to be one of the surprise hits of the new 52 for me.

The NU look comic book quickies 12/1/12

Week two week two its week two ! Have I explained the week system ? I feel like I have, I spose I could go back and check but that would take effort so here's a quick recap for you. Since DC launched the new 52 the weeks have been clearly defined as a four week cycle, last week was week one now that's a hell of a week with both action and detective comics oot. This weeks sort of a breather week as there's not too much oot to wreck the wallet with. Well now you know and knowing IS half the battle! Though you all probably know this already sorry to talk down to you my internet comic masters.


 
GREEN LANTERN #5
written by Geoff Johns art by Doug Mahnke

Sinestro leads his former people against his own yellow lanterns. Then his former people tell space Hitler to get the funk off world. So well played general public of korugar you've proved your already miles ahead of the marvel universes mental health. Pretty gid issue though I'm starting to wonder what sinestros long term plan is because the feeling I get from the events of this book are that its entirely possible that sinestro wants to be a proper green lantern again, there's really no reason for him to keep the ring on and he could have gone back to being his old self all ready. Maybe the grate space dictator just understands that he's part of a BUDDY COP TEAM and just gets at a very deep and primal level that to be a buddy cop is to be the most AMAZING thing in all creation, the very peak of all galactic EVOLUTION ! The guardians as of the last page of this issue are the big bads of the current ongoing arc. They actually say NOTHING CAN STOP US NOW !!! MAHAHAHHAHAAAHA ! Well they might not have laughed. There's a small chance I made that part up.



SUPERBOY #5
written by Scott Lobdell art R.B Silva

Super boy wares a bad ass hood and cape and turns his tron lights off to go rescue an old friend. He is only like three weeks old but he still gets to have old friends. So I'm sure last time I talked about how bi poler superboy is, like one issue he's all emo and thinks he's just a weapon but the next he's all its my life I'll live it the best I can. Well now I'm thinking its not the character that's bi poler its the entire book that's like that. So superboys back working for n.o.w.h.e.r.e which is like a less subtle nerve from neon genesis evangelion that's after “dangerous” teen meta humans. There gendo kills a bunch of his own mooks. I guess that all just fine and dandy. Not a bad issue by any means id just like it to be a little more consistent in favour of the those awesome I'm NOT a weapon issues.


 
FRANKENSTEIN AGENT OF S.H.A.D.E #5
written by Jeff Lemire art by Alberto Ponticelli

AWWWWWWWW HELLLS YES ! Frankenstein fights omac. AND IT WAS AMAZING. That's it really. This issue was part of a cross over with omac #5 but I never knew that till I read the first page of this book. WELL PLAYED DC. Wait not well played not well played at all, I might have got omac if I had known before hand. Happily you didn't have to buy omac to understand what was going on so points to franky for that. It was a nice all fight issue that starts with franky sort of on holiday in Tibet bringing the beat down to some man eating dwarfs. awesome. He gets called in by s.h.a.d.e and checkmate to bring in a run away omac. This leads to a fight and like I said earlier It was AWESOME. I went into this with some doubt think that it was a cheap cross over trying to drum up some new readers for omac but dammmm this is just what I needed after that last issue that left me depressed what with it reminding me of that god damn dark age comic that you can see still haunts me. It just left me with a warm fuzzy feeling inside my manly guts. Gotta say though the arts not for everyone with its sketchy jumbled look and even I found some of the panel layouts had to follow on first glance but give it a go its well worth a look.




Also what do you think of or new look ? Leave a comment and tell us what you think !

The blazing comic book quickies 26/11/11


 
I'll try not to talk about buddy cops but I'm not making any promises.



THE FLASH #3
Written by Francis Manapul and Brian Buccellato art by Francis Manapul

The flash saves a plane from crashing after a electromagnetic pulse hits central city. I'm certainly enjoying this new rebotaverse flash book its delivering all the thrills and spills that you'd expect plus Barry Allen isn't being all that emo sure he's no kamina type but he's being fun and not driven like he was in flashpoint or bitching with kid flash like he was in the road to flashpoint. Heh yeah iv not read all that much flash. Right so spoilers then ? You guys cool with that yeah ? Barry Allen gets shot dead on the last page. Oh wells so much for Barry Allen then guess its time to bring on wally west cuz there's no way that Barry's death could be some kind of fake out or anything that type of thing never happens in comics theses days. Oh yeah and the art god damn bloody funking awesome.


 
AQUAMAN #3
written by Geoff Johns art by Ivan Reis

Yup the world sure dose hate aquaman all right. Hates probably a strong word, pity's probably better. Well he is aquaman after all. AQUAMAN! He cant even swim alone. The big goffs really taking the running joke of aquaman sucking big time and really hammering it home. The world of the rebotaverse is just like our very own in that it just see's the king of Atlantis as a joke and that's pretty cool mainly cuz it works. Its just feels more real that the world would treat him that way rather than treat him just like superman. Well that's what this books setting up so they can show that aquaman is bad ass that he dose kick ass and that he isn't a joke. Its not there yet but it's aiming for it. The goff man really likes aquaman stabbing dudes. Not my cup of tea really id prefer that he just punch fools like his counter part in the brave and the bold cartoon. That or just summon cthulhu. He can do that you know.


 
GREEN LANTERN NEW GUARDIANS #3
written by Tony Bedard art by Tyler Kirkham and Harvey Tolibao

So about those gaurdians of the universe being total bad guy bastards. Yeah that's still happening. Its weird dudes like they are at this moment the closest thing to a big bad in current GL continuity. They want to replace the green lanterns themselves with a third army, thieve brainwashed gathnet and are currently kicking the absolute crap out of kyle ryaner just cuz he has more than one ring, something that's totally out of his control. Crazy issue but nothing that much happens other than larfleeze making his appearance. And really I think that's all we really wanted to see.


 
TEEN TITANS #3
written by Scott Lobdell art by Brett Booth

I have to say this issues knocked me back a wee bit. Teen titans has got banter. I didn't get that before maybe the writing and art just gelled this issue or maybe it was something I'm just missing but there were genuine laughs this time and that really struck me. See before titans was teetering on the edge of the drop list but after what I just read the book has potential and hopefully the next few issues will be as good.




Oh and there was one other thing ..... but I cant ... rember.... some thing blazing and old but also new .....something amazing no....incredible ....no.....something ell's.....
