One Perfect Moment: Ninja High School

[q99]

In order to understand this perfect moment, you must understand Tetsuo Rivalsan.

Namely, he's a failure.

His three great ambitions in life are to beat Ricky Feeple, his sister Yumei, and to become Ninja King!

At which he failed utterly.

You don't truly need to know the rest beyond that, there's a fair amount of spoilers from the Ninja High School Shidoshi arc and it's plenty Perfect even without, but read if you want the background :)

Sometimes, meeting the parents can be tricky.

A Perfect-Ish Moment: Gen

[stolisomancer]

Chun Li's oldest living teacher is an old guy named Gen. He used to be an assassin. Now he's slowly dying of cancer while he and his grandsons, Yun and Yang, run a restaurant in Hong Kong.

It's a few years before the Street Fighter tournament, and Chun Li is a patrolwoman in the Hong Kong PD, sometimes working alongside her celebrated father. When one of Shadoloo's thugs takes a shot at Chun Li and her father while they're having dinner with Gen at his restaurant, they immediately take cover. Before they can do more than figure out where the sniper is, though...

A spasm...

[seriousfic]

I've seen this making the rounds of the blogosphere, but I haven't seen it posted here, so all the way from Batman: Widening Gyre...

One Perfect moment: Kate and Jake Kane

[requiem2adream]

I started reading Greg Rucka's run on Detective Comics for one reason: the back up feature about the Question, Renee Montoya. At first I only read the man feature because hey, I'd brought the book, I may as well read the whole thing. I liked it but still it was the backup feature that was what really made me keep reading it. Then something happened. Issue 859 was released.

I don't have the words to describe how this issue - how the page I am posting in particular - made me fall in love with Kate and her father and with Greg Rucka too. All I know is that the moment is about as perfect as father-daughter moments go in comics. ( I couldn't say what he needed to hear... )

I cry every time I read it. It's so simple and yet so beautiful. Everything from the art to the storytelling in this issue is so damn perfect.

I was lucky enough a few weekends ago to meet Rucka himself at the London Film and Comic Con for a signing and a panel. When it came to deciding what I would get signed, the answer seemed to elude me for a while but then, while I was waiting in line and talking it over with my friend it kind of became obvious which issue would mean the most signed: ( Retain Honour )

( Anyway, turns out this issue has practically perfect behind the scenes story to tell as well.  )

So there you have it. One perfect moment, and one perfect behind the scenes story from what I consider to be one of the most perfect comic book issues I have ever read.

X-23 Innocence Lost

[strangerface]

I'm a big fan of the Craig Kyle and Christopher Yost X-23 miniseries(es), but particularly the first one, Innocence Lost (that whole book is my perfect moment), because X-23 is still little and not over sexualized. (I'm not opposed to her being hot, I just find the character more powerful as a little girl, like she was in X-Men: Evolution, where she began.)

This scan is from issue three.

So, yeah, I love the OPM bewareofgeek chose for Traci 13, but I have another idea for her. Two and a third pages from Blue Beetle 16.
( They're facing the wrath of God. Literally. )

Excellent issue if you haven't read it BTW. All it needs is moar Brenda to be darn near perfect.
