Give me an honest answer...

[Kefky]

What'll you do if Loeb turns the Ultimates into this lame silver-age throwback crap that he's doing in Supergirl right now? 'Cause seriously, the only thing I can think of right now is running like hell. :sad:

[Seltzer Water]

not buy it?

[Gregory]

Oh, I dropped the book once I found out Mad was drawing it. His work never appealled to me.

[amy racecar]

Dropping already. If they turn out to surprise everyone with a decent follow-up to Millar/Hitch I'll pick up the eventual HC.

[Angel of Distraction]

Millar/hitch hasn't been as perfect as you all make them out to be, so I'll still be giving it a shot.

[RegularJoe]

he earns a shot.

What would you do if you were offered tickets to see:

Hall and Oates shot from a cannon into a net filled with cupcakes

or

the corpse of Robert Urich reanimated and made to star on a Broadway production of his former show VEGAS

and you could only pick one?

(oh, and Loeb is your date)

[Cth]

I'm no Loeb fan, but I'm interested in seeing how he'll use Ultimate Hulk on the team.

[Olivier E.]

stop buying it,

.....Duh? I'm afraid this is too witty even for me. :mistrust:

[Kefky]

stop buying it,


Why do you always end your sentences with a comma? Huh? HUH?!? What're you tryin' to do, huh? You're up to somethin' aren't you? I just kNOW it!

[anthony the ghost]

joe mad worries me more than jeph loeb. joe mad blows and his preview images were sad.

[GabeLogan]

I'd wipe my ass with it, put it in a paper bag, place said bag on my neighbor's porch and set the bag on fire.

What? To honest? :mistrust:

[WAKKAJAWAKKA]

Kill Like, 3 Hookers.

Wayno.

[Blake Sims]

im skeptical of it but im gonna give it a shot if i dont like it i wont get it

[a_garza]

first we hang him then we kill him

If I would have used a point, it would be sure, but so, something can follow

like stop buying it, but maybe the HC later on, even if it sucks ;)

[Garra]

Luckily its only a comic book and not a life changing decision, so I will give it a go for a few issues and if I like it, keep buying it. If after a few issues I think it stinks, I will stop buying it.

[JeremyDale]

Oh, no-- someone is doing something different with the Ultimates. As it is my right, I shall drop it without giving it a chance, all because I think Mad! is overrated and draws too cartoony and Loeb will ruin it with his on-again, off-again writing.

Ultimates is a classic series of over 20 issues in what-- 5 years? To change something so classic is to go against the will of God himself! How will I EVER deal with this? Whine whine whine.

Heaven forbid.

[JeremyDale]

I'm all for seeing if a change this radical can work. I'll be picking it up-- I look FORWARD to it.

Jeremy

[Mr. E!]

It all depends on how they end this arc. if I like it, I'll keep reading. If not, I won't.

[Adam Witt]

I'll give Loeb a fair shake, since I haven't read anything of his I haven't liked. But Joe Madureira on the other hand, I can live without. I think Loeb will do well, but Mad worries me. I look forward to the bi-yearly Ultimates 3!

[TIP]

.....Duh? I'm afraid this is too witty even for me. :mistrust:

See, I would think the Hall/Oates Cannon and Cupcakes spectacle would be the way to go. Can you imagine your companion-for-the-evening Loeb giggling in delight as the Pop Duo land safely in a cascade of pastries?

Good point. Because Loeb has only ever written one type of comic ever.

Hall and Oats, no question.

:shock:

The Ultimates will be late!!!!1 OH NOES!!!@!!2132rejd

[Artie Pink]

It'll all work out. Loeb's a pro when not hindered by tie-ins. I've never seen Joe Madieura draw any character I was interested in before, so I'll give him a chance, too.

Silver Age homages are usually pretty cool by me. I will say that Loeb's run on Superman was un-freakin'-readable, though.

[Kefky]

Good point. Because Loeb has only ever written one type of comic ever.
Hey, all I said is that I'm SCARED. I'll read it. But I have no interest at all in this useless nostalgia crap Loeb does. If I want nostalgia, I'll just go back and read the real thing, not pay 3 bucks for a cheap copy of it.

[TIP]

Hall and Oats, no question.


Methinks I need to forward this to Ask AAl.

Have you read any Loeb books besides Batman/Superman? He does write stuff that is not Silver Age stroke fests. And he's damn good at it.

nah!

I read some of his things and apart of his Batman everything was bad

Yes, I have, sir. I know he can do different, sir. But I'm afraid he may choose to do the same here, sir. Am I not allowed to think that way, sir?


(Hush was an overhyped piece of crap with a shitty ending, btw)
