Yeah,.. I dunno.... Someone's reading X-Men. lol.
BTW,.. Havok is off world right now too.

Buck Rogers meets TRON.

Hey, I'm sure Alex Ross stayed up all night to come up with that design!

.....but it still sucks.........Hope the story is ok?

[The Toyroom]

Ross' design work has basically sucked lately IMO

[HardyGirl]

He looks like Automan.

Mostly because that seems like all he's been doing, redesigning every character they dreg up from the bottom of the Golden Age.

And the Buck Rogers preview did nothing for me. They lost me as soon as I saw Wilma Deering's name was changed to the much more modern Wynona Deering. Whafore? Huh?

This is another reason why I elected no to read comic books. hahahaha

Yeah me either....if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

[BlackKnight]

wow... I didn't realize this was More Ross re-inventing the Wheel Crap Design.... Is it still True that He is gonna re-Do the Batsuit for Whoever ? Dick's Gonna be in a Batsuit with Scaley Undies & some Pixey Shoes, & a Rainbow Cape.

... Man,.. I am a big fan of Ross when he draws something like it's suppost to be,.. but 1st the Cap suit, & Now this... Man,.. whats the saying ? 3 Strikes you be out ?.

On a Side Note,.. I am Eagerly awaiting His JLA Figures from DCD... They were Suppost to ship this Month,.. Maybe next then..

The Batman and Robin covers that have been released so far look pretty much the same for Batman's costume. So I'm guessing no Ross Bat redesign. As far as Buck goes, I really didn't like the Lone Ranger from Dynamite, pacing was slow for the Trade Paperback, so I really don't expect this to be that great.

Yeah, something like 3 years in and he STILL hasn't had the final confrontation with Butch Cavendish....yawn

[johnnystorm]

Dynamite has optioned just about everything now, haven't they?

The Lone Ranger is ok, but yeah, it's ponderously slow in coming out and going anywhere. Same with Zorro, which I dropped. I picked up Sherlock Holmes #1 yesterday, but haven't read it yet.

I read a few of the Golden Age Super Powers books, but again, lots of flash with the Ross covers, incomprehensible storyline with no resolution.

Highlander was bad too, a book I had high hopes for but they bogged down in some stupid parallel time story. And they must have paid extra money for the Kurgan, as they overused him to the extreme, considering his total story was tied up in the movie. What a waste of a property, the potential for all those great stories set in different time periods, the future, etc....thrown away with recycled movie plots and bad spy storylines. Bah!

As a division of Dynamic Forces, Dynamite's main purpose seems to be selling overpriced variant covers signed by Alex Ross. And what's with the Stan Lee stuff at $150-200 pricing? Did you know if you send Stan a couple books through the mail he'll sign them & send them back to you for free on about a week & a half?


They should concentrate on quality books instead of gimmicky covers and multiple variants. Did you realize there are like 12 covers to Lone Ranger #1? God knows how many Red Sonja ones are out therre. And hey, Dynamite...the "reverse negative" cover is probably the ugliest thing ever produced.

[Earth 2 Chris]

Buck looks like he borrowed back a bit of Adam Strange there as well.

I love the Lone Ranger, but Dynamite's series is ridiculously slow-paced. It took them 6 issues to get him in the mask! The Gabriel mini-comic did it in like 8 pages.

Yeah I stuck with this for the first arc but they aren't getting any more of my dough for sequels or spin-offs....which is too bad because I REALLY wanted to like these great Golden Age characters but the nowhere story and muddy artwork underneath those swell Alex Ross covers just wasn't doing it for me.

Same sort of applies to Ross' Avengers/Invaders over at Marvel. I thought the best of the bunch of these Golden Age revivals was JMS' The Twelve but I haven't seen a new issue of that in a while....
