The Outhouse - The Greatest Comic Book Forum

I don't actually remember what I nominated, but the fact that none of my entries showed up on day 1 leads me to believe Bubba probably "misplaced" my list again.

There's a lot of indy stuff higher on the list, but it's possible he lost a couple of lists due to the changeovers on here and the computer issues he had, plus the sheer volume of lists he received.

Night Force is a series that I'm interested in. I enjoyed the 90s series and I've added the DC Comics Presents reprint series of the original run to my pull list.

Quasar at three points -- WTF? It was number three on my list so it should at least have 8 points. Something is wrong here.

I never read Power Company, but I liked Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E.

It's entirely possible some addition on Bubba's part was off before he sent me the list. He might have meant to give it 8 points for a third place vote and instead gave it 3 points for an 8th place vote and no one else had it on their list. His computer died over the weekend though, so I don't know when or if he'll be able to double check.

Lo siento.

also, it will be real easy for y'all to tell which runs i did write-ups for; apparently i wrote like 10 times as much as anybody else.

My posts for RULK, Fables, and Peter David's Hulk are pretty awesome and fairly verbose, but once I realized I had to do all these, I stopped being so wordy until we get higher on the list. Otherwise I'd be spending too long getting these done.

Its been too damn long since I've been able to do a run of posts in a top lists thread.

I enjoyed reading it.

[rdrsfn82]

It's a ridiculously huge series. 20+ trades at 300 pages each. I've only read up to v.5.

That's a lot of reading. I doubt I'll ever read it, even though it seems like something I might enjoy.

So tomorrow we got Wolfman/Perez Teen Titans, a book that doesn't belong on the list but got nominated and allowed me to rant (though not the one you guys are thinking, as I actually enjoyed this book), a three way tie, a couple of foreign books, and two books that are way way way better than they have any right to be.

Its not a big deal. I do realize that stuff happens.

It just surprised me to see it with only three points.

I enjoyed reading it.

Cool.

You know, I just realized something.

This thread isn't going to be the same without Twigg.

Manhunter - Never read it but Ostrander is a great underrated writer.

All New Atom - I tried it and it never really clicked with me.

Groo - A buddy of mine when I was a kid loved Groo. I always thought it was fun.

Superman Busiek - Yeah about Busiek and the DCU? I was a little wrong. His Superman with Pacheo was fun.

[Jack Burton]

LW&C -- should probably read this some day

Sgt. Rock -- should probably read this some day

Black Hole -- will never ever read this some day

This.

What do people have against Black Hole? That was a great story.

Just so that he has some presence here.

Ever so happy Gail Simones crappy Atom didn't get higher.

Night Force - I wanted to like it (Marv & Gene) but never got into it.

Quasar - Loved every issue (even the later ones with the fugly art.

Power Company - Looking back, I'm not sure why I bought it.

Stars & S.T.R.I.P.E. - Took me by surprise with the first issue. Very under-rated.

Manhunter - The late 80's had so much magic, and this book had it in spades. Loved it!

All-New Atom - Some cute stuff but it looked doom the moment it came out so I never really loved the book (even tho I loved the characters introduced in it).

Groo - I was a big Groo fan for a long time but then I just stopped, not sure why.

Busiek's Superman - Loved it all and sad that it been forgotten. Oh, and can never forget that Krypto issue.

Lone Wolf & Cub - This was on my short list. Absolutely beautiful stuff.

Sgt. Rock - I still have no idea why Sgt Fury got all the fans. Kanigher & Kubert created pure magic.

Black Hole - Never read it.

[Stephen Day]

Stars & S.T.R.I.P.E. - Took me by surprise with the first issue. Very under-rated.

I feel the same way.
