Voodoo Hoodoo

[psychopathicus_rex]

More Ducks! (Don't worry, I'll be taking a break from them after this.)
I'm a little late for Black History Month, but I thought this story would be appropriate for such. I shall proceed to explain why.
As I'm sure you're all aware, racial depictions in comics have had... well, not a very good track record over the years, especially during the first few decades of their history. Carl Barks, overall, was much better about this sort of thing than many of his contemporaries - he wasn't above the occasional stereotype, but they were, as a general rule, very mild and innocuous.
There are exceptions to every rule, though, and this story, 'Voodoo Hoodoo', is one of them. Personally, I think the story as a whole is quite effective - it IS Barks, after all - but there are some elements to it which... well, see for yourself.

[sherkahn]

There has been a lack of EPIC! as of late, so let me hope that March starts off with a fresh batch of BAM! BOOM! POW!.

The Warriors Three continue their quest to stop Fenris, the Asgardian Wolf who would end all Asgard.

But that's not important. What's important is that the the Three continue to bring the awesomeness.

Brightest Day #20

Because Brightest Day #21 was published today, I'm assuming that it's fair game to post seven pages from the last issue.

Age of X Chapters 1 and 2

[long_silence]

So in previous posts I've tried to explain the plot of the current X-Event, Age of X.

Well last week the first two chapters both came out on the same day, due to that odd tendency where every month all of Marvel's major titles are all shipped out on the same week and here are some pages from each.

In a perfect world, everybody would look like this

[stubbleupdate]

Currently, I've only got Alexis Denisof and John Slattery as people who look like Phil Noto drew them.

For want of nothing better to do, I give you ( all the Phil Noto you can eat )

On a scale of 1 to 10, I WANT his New Machines so hard.

Just one panel from the comic adaptation of Splinter of the Mind's Eye.

He's supposed to be wearing a stolen miner's uniform. Uh-huh.
