DEADPOOL #59 DANIEL WAY (w) • SALVA ESPIN (a) Cover by DAVE JOHNSON • Part two of “Blacklisted!” • The return of classic Deadpool Detractor, BLACK SWAN! • Will the now-killable assassin get assassin’d? 32 PGS./Parental Advisory ...$2.99
I think it helps that Johnson is a great cover artist with great sense of colour, composition and so on, much more than the average cover artist. He's got a real sense of style that made his work on 100 Bullets one of the highlights of the series - and it was 100 Bullets.
This, although I'm not amazing fond of Way in general; I just picked up the Monstrous trade for Astonishing X-Men, and whilst the concept is solid - Armor goes home to Japan with the X-Men in two, Mentallo is basically controlling the MU equivalent of Toho's Monster Island, mix the two together and stir - and has two or three great artists in Pearson, Pichelli and Bradshaw, the dialogue is just.. Blegh.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
