I like the over-the-topness of it. Especially the "Shut up" from Wonder Woman every five seconds...LOL.
Have you heard about his Holy Terror, Batman! project? It's basically a Batman vs Al Queda propaganda piece.

I get the feeling that Miller is becoming more conservative in his old age. Just based on my own gut. Nothing else.

Watchmen is the ultimate graphic novel; no story I know of has come close to surpassing it.

It would make a fantastic film if they could get a director to completely reproduce the story/images faithfully at each and every point. It had the most compelling and realistic take I've ever seen for "super heroes" and what their lives would really be like. It deserves an equally realistic translation to film in my mind, one that captures all of the character drama and doesn't try to insert a bunch of special effects or other sensational crap.

Though I seriously hope they do a version that actually has the ink-under transparent material from the book. A Rorschach mask that doesn't change from shot-to-shot isn't a Rorschach mask.

He would be a WAY better choice, IMO. Perlman is good, but Butler would be better.

Fables is great guys, give it a crack. Lots of plot threads running all the way through it, tonnes of potential even this far into the series. But start from the beginning, don't just jump straight in.
My girlfriend actually BEGS me to borrow the next volume. That's how good it is.

I was tempted by the Omnibus myself. What do you guys think of Kirby's work? I've never read anything of his, to be honest, and I was thinking of making this my first Kirby book...
Sage, you don't know how lucky you are, reading that book for the first time right now. It may not seem like it at first, but it really is one of the greatest things you'll read. Period.

I'm reading Justice League, Justice Society, Brave and the Bold, Countdown, the Spirit, Detective Comics (when Dini's on it), All-Star Superman, Welcome to Tranquility and Action whenever Donner and Johns are at the helm.
The Spirit is very clever. Great one-shot stories there. Brave and the Bold is brimming with old-school magic too in much the same way. Supergirl and Green Lantern were hilarious together. Detective has some pretty good one shots as well.
The Red Tornado storyline in JLA was promising, but now things are feeling a bit sub-par. I don't know if JSA is as good as the critics are saying, but it's still pretty good.
All-Star Superman and the Donner/Johns Action line feature some of the best Superman stories ever - which is not hard given the muck he's been dragged through over the decades, but they're great nonetheless. I'm finding Morrison's run on Batman to be almost as fun as All-Star Superman too. So refreshing to have fun Batman stories after all these years.
Countdown is shaping up to be a good, fast-paced TV series kind of comic. Like Heroes, I guess you could say.
I recommend Welcome to Tranquility for those who appreciate a different take on the superhero genre, of the geriatric kind!
I'm up to the final volume of Sandman (Endless Nights), and I don't know what I'm going to do with myself now that I'm near the end.
And does anybody know what the hell happened to Loeb and Cooke on Batman/Spirit? I've got issue #1, then nada...

I read Sandman for the first time about 2 years ago. Great stuff.
Loeb went to Marvel, so not sure if he'll finish that or not.

But it left everything so up in the air! Perhaps it was just to get Spirit on his feet...
But I did suspect that Loeb's move to Marvel may have done it as well (although, we're still getting Superman Confidential from the Loeb/Cooke team, aren't we?). I always thought that Loeb was a freelancer, still.
