Mark Millar has declared Jupiter's Legacy Finale the best comic he has ever written. Time to find out if that is true!>I've done this job since I was 19. The best issue of anything I've ever written is on sale tomorrow. Why are we here? Where did we COME from? Why are we programmed to love our children so much? DON'T MISS!https://x.com/mrmarkmillar/status/1858803238054883811
I'm sorry, I meant to say this issue. Quire drunk right now.
This ain't it Mark.
This was genuinely awful. Millar used to be great, what happened?
>>146448166I can’t believe Netflix paid millions for the rights to this
>>146448226>>146448219>>146448213This art sucks.
>>146448599>Millar used to be greatWhen?
>>146448599Millar has had flashes of greatness. From the moment this arc started with, “Of course it didn’t fucking last,” we knew this was not one of them.
>>146448341>>146448352Why do they all instantly believe this alien dude? Nothing he says makes any sense if you think about it for more than a few seconds.
>>146450601I would say Jupiters Legacy first volume was great.
>>146450601Ultimates, Wolverine, Jupiter's Legacy, Huck, Starlight, American Jesus 3, etc. There's a ton of good stuff by Millar.
>>146448599Millar always sucked. He just has good ideas but horrible executions. The premise of Wanted sounds interesting but the protagonist having the "super power" of shooting good sucks.
>>146448734and look how that turned out
>>146454556What was wrong with Adventures of Superman?
Time for Millar's real best comics.
>>146448599Millar has always been a shitty writer, at best he's had moments where he was just okay.
>>146452319Carried hard by the art, the writing was nothing special.
>>146456153>Superman! There's orphans being stuck in a flood in Cambodia!>No, I must stay still while Lois is sleeping, just so she feels a little bit more loved
>>146448599I feel like when Miller has something to say or has a feeling he wants to express he can do a solid job, but when he's writing scripts to be sold as TV show or film pitches he just phones it in.
>>146448599He is not signing Grant Morrison scripts anymore.
Surely all of those are better than this shit.
>>146459924Thanks. I will have to read this.
>>146459924Thanks for the effort.
>>146448219Was there a time skip or am I missing an issue? All I remember was that this series left on a dumb cliffhanger involving a black hole.
>>146448341Oh-uh, those are clearly traced tau stealth suits.
>>146463952missing an issue, this is #2
>>146457790Damn, that's a really buffed architect
>>146458780New reaction image right there
>>146459763Inject this stuff straight into my veins.
>>146456336Thanks. Just reread this the other day. Always been one of my favorites.
>>146448166>The Best Comic Mark Millar Has Ever WrittenLow bar to clear, and sure enough OP's choice is another one of Millar's trash TV/movie pitches.
>>146467857>OP's choiceIt wasn't, did you even read the OP?
Does Mark Millar still have that deal with Netflix? All of his shit bombed for them.
>>146468642Its almost up. Either next year or the year after.
>>146448341>>146464190Give credit to the artist, he flipped the canvas and gave them domes, clearly different, original design.
>>146459406>what if Superman was sent to the Invincible universe?
>>146459227>>146459219That was a really nice touch. Genuinely brilliant writing
>>146459683Exactly what I wrote there >>146457187It really feels weird to have Clark Kent spending time doing unimportant stuff, or even nothing at all, like >>146456153, when each seconds he spends doing that means he's not saving someone's life somewhere.
>>146470363Wasn't there literally an episode where Clark talks about how if he was Superman 24/7 he'd go insane?
>>146459814>Predominant religion: Racism
>>146470383I prefer the take from... what was that comic book again? was it Astro City? Where their Superman-equivalent is just completely absolutely busy all the time, but still deliberately takes his time when it's necessary.Like, you see him save a cat from a tree, and taking an additional two second to hand it to the little girl owner, so she's not scared.Knowing when it's good that you take time and exactly how much time to take, is part of the heroism, I think. It carries basically the same meaning as that >>146456153 comic, but in a way that's more coherent with the character.
>>146471020So you admit that you're bitching for no other reason than not liking Superman, got it.
>>146471300Nah, quite the opposite.But something like>He is holding me in his arms when I fall asleep>Somehow every morning he is by my side, when I wake up>I know he barely needs to sleep and instead goes to places and saves people when I'm asleep. But I appreciate blah blah blahSomething like that.Him having tons of little attentions to make Lois feel loved is great. It's a nice touch. It's part of what I like about Superman, actually. But wasting 8 hours every day for one very very small thing feels out of character.Even worse, it feels incoherent, actually. I mean... eventually the bad guys would pick up that Superman doesn't do anything between midnight and 8am, no?
>>146448303So the big reveal is the same human harvest plot from that other Movie with Jupiter in the name?
>>146448166Starlight is the best Mark Millar comic.
