My artistic tribute to the true #silversurfer #norrinradd despite the drama surrounding what #disney has done in the upcoming #FantasticFour film, the truth is that they missed a huge opportunity to bring this visually & narratively iconic #marvel hero appropriately to the screen

One good thing about classes going on field trips is that I got a free period today. Almost finished the pencils on my AzBat today. Always appreciated that #jeanpaulvalley was drawn Big physically. #BatmanKnightfall #Batman #ComicArt

I think it’s worse than that. The “Plan” seems to have been (if using Marvel as an example): Make a Thunderbolts animated series w/a cucking character arc was a major subplot. Then Iron Man 2 is the 1st film in the franchise (although even in that film there’s charm & Iron Man is the hero) Then, there was a wacky Punisher series that was billed as a direct follow-up w/muddy connections to Netflix era that featured a drug fueled bisexual orgy w/full frontal nudity. Then, they made Shuri movie where she’s an aggressive, obnoxious drunk that bombed. An R rated series about Thor as a broken old drunk taking place entirely on earth who gets shot in get head & replaced by Jane Foster called: Hammers. Then an R Rated horror movie about the Red Skull without any mention of Captain America. & finally a Rick Jones vs. The Leader comedy mockentary series.
So the plan was nothing but Superman movies. Imagine if Marvel had spent 8 years doing nothing but Iron Man.

Either lose the job or publicly apologize for awful antagonistic comments targeted at people that wanted better stories. Either one.
Hopefully means the end of this shit & these 2 clowns now

Ironically enough, I was already working on something #dccomics related today: an AzBat illustration to celebrate the upcoming release of #BatmanKnightfall Part 2. Honestly, this trilogy is bringing back excitement I haven’t felt in a long time by adapting the 1st arc of comics I ever collected. #Batman

This isn’t a bad thing. Making movies that appeal to the WHOLE family out of Superhero fiction should be the goal. I often say that my dad, a retired Army Helicopter Pilot, Air-Traffic Controller, Electrician, is the test for mass-appeal media. If you get him to watch a Superhero show? You’ve made something everyone can enjoy. & He loved Iron Man. Also, speaking as someone that grew up in the church but isn’t particularly religious, Superheroes were written & created w/A LOT of religious themes: redemption, self-sacrifice, family values. Those aren’t bad things. & what this guy is saying seems to be, “ don’t exclude families & people who have those values to force in crass humor” such as: a series billed as a follow-up to a Superman movie that features a full frontal drug fueled bisexual orgy.
The new face of DC we are cooked. RIP Peacemaker and anything rated R

Wait, has anyone checked on @CoyJandreau ? I mean, there are so many people who “ain’t worth livin” & shouldn’t “BE” celebrating right now. I won’t watch it but I’m sure his cope will be outstanding. #jamesgunnfired

Uh-Oh, looks like The Gunn back-Fired. Said it for awhile, but Gunn took some of the most sincere straight-forward stories about classic heroes & turned them into stories all about his fixations: man-children, daddy issues, & trying to meld Silver Age wackiness w/ his disillusioned “too-cool for it all” sensibilities. It doesn’t work to meld the Silver Age story-telling w/stories full of awful, childish people. Get back to telling sincere, classic stories of heroism & adventure #dcu
DC Studios Shocker: James Gunn and Peter Safran are stepping down as co-CEOs. Skydance, which now oversees the division thanks to its acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, has appointed former Marvel exec Jeremy Latcham to the post of president and chief creative officer of DC Studios. Gunn and Safran are stepping away from their leadership roles effect Dec. 1, four years after taking over the job. hollywoodreporter.com/movies…

Yeah… Temu X-Men. Peter Claffey is the only one I think is right for the role. Hated Sink’s Jean Grey in Brand New Day & the messaging it pushed. The Storm casting is good. I’m in on Inde as Rogue, but the original 5 being a mixed bag & the overall direction that #disney has taken the #xmen in w/Terrorism promoting garbage like #xmen97 & the fact that Sinks Jan Gray is going to be the focus of the film is a lot of Red Flags.
The original 5 X-Men in the MCU: • Sadie Sink as Jean Grey • Kit Connor as Cyclops • Asa Germann as Angel • Peter Claffey as Beast (rumored) • Ben Wang as Iceman (in talks)

Well, Spooky Season is a lot of fun, but it was nice to get things done around the house today & get some inking done. Finally got back to my #kylerayner #greenlantern illustration. Although I started w/Hal, Kyle was the Green Lantern I read the most of in #JusticeLeague #illustration #ComicArt
