Many thanks indeed for that very encouraging comment; I am delighted that this tale is appealing to some readers at least - and particularly in that the two of you are both proven writers of very...
Perhaps they do "get it" - but just don't happen to agree......? That is, one supposes, entirely possible...?
Why thank-you! I'm very glad that the tale appeals to you - and grateful for the feedback, too (One never quite knows - lots and lots of views but no comment can look rather ominous... so it's good...
Oh PLEASE - No! Don't encourage them - just don't! DC-infected MotU comics are already ineffably silly and trivialised enough; this will only make things far worse!
Quarantine the virus - don't...
Attaboy, Maxx! That is bloody (literally....) funny.
Carnage; the Tooth Fairy... Surreal!
Priceless! Hah!
Many thanks for posting that, Tallstar. It looks like history is rather repeating itself.
And, the nature of subjectivity being as it is, my view is the contrary one; that there is a great deal of negativity and that the positive trend is smaller - and shrinking.
But Quot homines, tot...
This review explains it really very well - albeit somewhat scathingly: http://neftyshouseofrants.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/dc-motu-comic-rant-part-deux.html
Hard to disagree - for all the post-hoc...
Me too - please! Or anything written by a sentient being with some understanding of and respect for Eternia!
Why is this - apparently - such a lot to ask for?

Firstly - welcome back!
And - yes; there is a great deal of very negative reaction to these DC comics, both among fans on this site, on other sites, in posted reviews and from those unfamiliar...
You may very well be right. Oh dear.
I can - in effect - excuse the dark and violent aspects of these comics (though I'm far from accepting that it's being done for genuine reasons of narrative...
I'm very much of your mind on this; the abysmal writing standards and the complete lack of understanding of or respect for the Eternian mythos have indeed made a travesty of these comics. And - yes;...

That seems, to me at least, a very well-reasoned and balanced argument; if these comics average 20k sales (and my guess is that they will hold steady at c.16-17k, not least on account of 12-month...
It is indeed a shame; that's one of the chief reasons that I feel so let down by these comics; I feel MotU deserves - and requires - everyone's BEST efforts, not some slapdash one-buttocked piece of...
You most certainly did!
I have very real doubts that these fundamental changes are good for the property - namely because they alienate existing fans in favour of pursuing a potential younger...
I agree wholly; but, as a writer, in the particular context of these DC Comics, he is deplorably third-rate in every way.
Perhaps he was being lazy here as well! If so - then what a pity that he...
Yes; something the writers thought sounded cool is about it. It has no actual meaning, since dead is - well - dead - irrespective of method. It's merely a figure of speech.
And you are, in effect,...
Your work is always impressive; I particularly like the blend of the light-hearted cartoon-theme with the more serious aspects underlying this. It shows in the sombre backgrounds, as opposed to the...
Skilfully answered, if I might say so?
Imagination is indeed key - and it's just not sensible to try to curtail the creative capacity of - presumably - imaginative and intelligent people within...
Now that is some SERIOUS critical erudition - I'm impressed! (And, also, you are completely right on both points!)
Broadly I agree with you - and I think you make the point about the essential difference well; all that I would say is that there is a significant difference between stasis and stagnation.
Also that...
Agree with you entirely; He-Man never needed (or wanted) to kill because the Power he served granted him strength and skill at arms and wisdom so that he could triumph without doing so. That made him...
What the heck is an "overkill battalion?" They seem very fond of using it - the Horde apparently have them too - but does it actually have any meaning? None in any military setting I've ever come...

I'm sure that would suit a great many fans - though the inclusion of the rather more mature 200x/MYP/MVC would be important to many, too.
Yes indeed; it could most certainly be done a whole...
I most certainly do, Stanley....
Broadly agree - though the chain mail is just downright silly; whoever heard of chain mail and bare legs? The stuff chafes like the devil - and was ALWAYS worn over thick padding. Not to mention the...
But not - presumably - tastefully impaled on Despera's sword in accordance with strict DC policy of killing-off all available females? (Oh - apart from their version of 'Teela' - who so richly...
