By Edgar Miraculous Dyer (2021, October 22) 2nd Ed. Comixeurs know that  Marvel Comics  (even in the Timely days), the self-styled  House of Ideas,  has always mixed an element of  horror  into the iconic DNA of its most beloved heroes. From the Frankenstein-inspired elements in Captain America to the more obvious flashes of horror in the original Human Torch, the amazing Spider-Man, incredible Hulk, invincible Iron Man and uncanny X-Men - even the supernatural possession of Dr. Donald Blake, by the mighty, Viking sky god, Thor - this is and always  has been  Marvel's secret sauce. This is the  Marvel brand... And even the publisher's greatest  superheroines  would not escape it. One need look no further, than  Sersi the Terrible!  Half-naked in the apocalyptic green of Eden, Sersi is a cosmic sorceress and member of Marvel's  The Eternals  (now, titular stars of a proper, live-action superhero flick) - who reall...

By Edgar Miraculous Dyer The first TEN issues of Michael W. Conrad' s, Becky Cloonan' s and Travis Moore' s tour on the  Wonder Woman comic, called Wonder Woman: Afterworlds,  is an exceptionally written and illustrated literary work - all the more exceptional, ..being a comic book story. I suppose you could call it, " a good start", since the creative team just wrapped its opening story arc, Afterworlds, and is moving swiftly onto its next one, already much anticipated, by fans. However, I think calling it a good start  diminishes it, somehow. It is, simply put, one of the most entertaining story cycles, to be featured in the Wonder Woman comic, in recent memory. It may be said to herald a second Golden Age, in crafting the sort of wildly imaginative, far-flung, pulpy adventures, we haven't seen, since Mike Sekowsky' s work on the comic, ..in the Mod Era 1970s. Afterworlds is plain good reading. Let it stand, as that. In reading it, I recall films, l...

By Edgar Miraculous Dyer I think comics illustrator superstar, George Perez, left the comic and the Wonder Woman, inside it, on the right track, in 1992. Perez returned her to her original mission and independence in Man's World. His Diana promised 'visits' to Paradise Island, to her heartbroken mother, Queen Hippolyta, in Perez's last issue, which he wrote, himself. Seeing her visit the Island again, was something I could live with - even look forward to. Discarding the Amazons, as I see it, is out of the question, because I think the Island has always been a special part of the Wonder Woman comic… And should remain so. Wonder Woman can't even go for a morning dip, without three thousand Ama...no wonder she left that damn island! Prob'ly. (H. G. Peter art) It's been kept so much more special, over the years, because of Diana's visiting it, whenever she needed something to aid in her mission to protect Man's World from evil - sometimes to protect ...
