When the Red Skull was captured by Magneto
Sep. 4th, 2014 01:11 pmarrogantcur(Triggers: multiple mentions of suicide, with a character actually being encouraged to kill himself and wanting to die. He doesn't, for what that's worth. Also trigger warnings for imprisonment involving prolonged sensory deprivation and starvation--while those things aren't among the trigger tags, I can certainly imagine how they could be triggers for anybody having gone through certain ordeals. Finally, there is some dialogue here which could potentially bring back memories of child abuse.)
One page from Captain America #367, two pages from a five page backup story in Captain America #369 and seven pages from Captain America #370.
Scans have already been posted of Magneto vs. the Red Skull (or to be more accurate, Magneto hunting the Skull while having to deal with every obstacle and distraction the latter can throw at him). The links to those images seem to be broken, and I thought of posting new images, but decided to play it safe and wait until I got the okay from a mod here. For now, I will just post what happened afterwards.
To briefly recap: after meeting the Red Skull, Magneto wants to know if he's the same Skull who was with the Nazis in World War Two, which the Skull admits. Even though the Skull didn't actually run the death camps, he still willingly served Hitler and Magneto wants to know what he has to say for himself. The Skull stalls by giving him a "We're not really so different" speech, since both of them want to see their respective "master race" inherit the Earth, before trying to kill him. Long story short, it doesn't work, the Skull tries to get away but fails, and the issue ends with this page:

espanolbotIn the new season of Legend of Korra (which is VASTLY improved over the previous two, by the by), they're exploring the family of Toph Bei Fong, and as such, I thought that I'd post some stuff from the recent Rift mini-series from the interquel comics from between Airbender and Korra.
Spoilers for the Rift and Korra season three

espanolbotMore horrifying than Mignola! More messed up than Junji Ito! More Perverse than a Mark Millar deconstructionist superhero comic! More lacking in its basic understanding of medical law than that one Veronica Mars episode!

I've long been a fan of Dean Trippe, diehard comic book fan, excellent artist in his own right, creator of Butterfly (one of the most delightful and charming webcomics I've ever read) and one of the lights behind the ever-enjoyable "Project Rooftop" superhero redesign competitions.
He is also one of the most articulate and thorougly decent chaps you could hope to communicate with, and a loving and devoted father (This was Dean and his son three years ago, and they're still going trick or treating as the Dynamic Duo again this year.), and when you realise what he went through to become such a person, it's even more impressive.

icon_ukOne of the best things about the internet is the sheer variety of media you find, more or less by chance. From the whimsical and amusing, to those which are so scorchingly painful you can practically FEEL the cost of writing it to the author as you read it.
This is very much the latter.
"Lighter than my Shadow" is a forthcoming autobiographical graphic novel about growing up with anorexia and coming to terms with it in adulthood by a British creator; Katie Green.
I'll say up front there are trigger warning for issues here involving an eating disorder as well as a reference to sexual abuse in the material linked to, so proceed any further bearing that in mind.

In honour of International Women's Day
Mar. 8th, 2013 09:28 pmicon_ukThis seems singularly apt. Though not a happy story, and indeed horrifying in more ways than I can articulate, it's a story about courage, and determination in the face of unimaginable opposition.
The piece is called Malala Yousafzai: I have the right. (Those of you familiar with the name will know that this is a story involving violence against a young woman, and bravery beyond measure, for those of you who aren't yet familiar with it, read on...)
Because this is a real person, I'm being cautious with the trigger warnings, and include them for bullying, child abuse, misogyny/sexism and violence towards women.
( Not just BASED on a true story, but an ACTUAL true story )

Catwoman: Crooked Little Town - Part 1
Jan. 12th, 2013 12:10 pmespanolbotStarted watching the Wire lately, and it's put me in the mood for some of Ed Brubaker's Catwoman run, which I'm going to share as it's a far better series than most things published now or since.

Hulk: Season One - Part Two
Oct. 1st, 2012 03:28 pmblinkytreefrogI was going to post more of this, but I think I want to encourage people to go check it out for themselves rather than totally spoil it all. Therefore, I'm just going to post this scene here because I love Bruce in it, even though it breaks my heart a bit.
( Trigger warnings for child abuse and parental death. )
So, passion versus will. That's what the Hulk ultimately boils down to in the end, and it's what Marvel tends to default to when they try to re-introduce the character to new audiences. It's when this dichotomy is at play that I generally find the Hulk the most enjoyable to read about (YMMV, of course), and so I clearly loved this story :-).

Hulk: Season One - Part One
Sep. 30th, 2012 09:38 pmblinkytreefrogI've been on a bit of an Iron Man and Hulk blitz of late, and I've been catching up on a lot of trades and issues via my local library and local comic shop. The "Season One" series that Marvel has been publishing lately is a set of hardcover graphic novels that provide updated origin stories for their major characters.
Yeah, I know what you're thinking. "Again?"
I admit that I was a bit hesitant about picking this up, because it was a 100 page hardcover with a pretty hefty price, and it didn't seem like it was covering anything new. Then my library got it in, and I read it and then went out and bought it straight after, because dammit, I wanted my own copy, expense be damned. This is an awesome little story, which recounts the original Hulk origin with some nifty twists and shows a Bruce Banner who's damaged but resolute and brilliant.
( Trigger warning for child abuse here - this does touch on Bruce Banner's childhood and it's pretty awful. )
That's it for now, but I'll post another part later, because there are lots of cool bits!

Sandor's Story
Sep. 3rd, 2012 04:35 pmcyberghostface
This will probably appeal more to people who are familiar with the series A Song of Ice and Fire or the TV show Game of Thrones. Lots of exposition to deliver if you haven't, although the following pages mostly stand on their own.
Those who have read the books know that they cut out a major scene from the show; the one where Sandor Clegane tells Sansa Stark the story about his scars. It's to this day IMO one of the worst things they did. Fortunately, the comics saw fit to include it. This is from the ninth issue of the series.
Finally a trigger warning for a scene of child abuse.
( Scans under the cut... )
Heads up: Spoilers in the comments
cyberghostface
Unlike Junji Ito's other stories, there's no supernatural horror here and it's all the more scary for it. Also a trigger warning for depictions of child abuse.
