MA$$APPEAL [Member Since: July 03 '08]
grew up in Canada and matured to a sweet ripeness in Brazil. I now live with my wife in Kelowna, BC. I’ve always been a huge X-Men fan. I started to loose the faith around 2000 when the editors at Marvel kept fucking around the those books. I pretty much stopped reading all comics because of that. It wasn’t until later, when the dust had settled that I discovered books like “The Dark Knight Returns” – which was published while I was in diapers, and some other classics. I heard the reviews on Millar’s Ultimate X-Men and on Morrison’s New X-Men and I started reading my X-books again. Today, I’m in the mortgage business, as well as a part-time music producer & DJ. I try to read everything Mark Millar writes. I’ve recently been caught up in Bendis’ Secret Invasion and am hugely involved in getting caught up on Kirkman’s “The Walking Dead”. My wife is into the old McFarlane’s Spawn so I’ve given her those and Ultimate X-Men to keep her occupied and help her perfect her english.

shit dude totally I forgot YOU told me about fantastic planet :S. I’m on youtube a lot and made playlists of anime movies like Biohunter, Dark Fury Chronicles of Riddick, Vampire hunter D blood lust, Van Helsing London Assignment and many more here’s my playlist. http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=F3854A4AE0DA2E6B
Hey man, I saw you have Damn Nation on one of your list’s, looks nice, I might pick it up at a con this month. Are you into Spawn? Have you seen the HBO series? Also check out on youtube (Fantastic Planet – La Planète sauvage), its animation from the late 70’s, like Heavy Metal but about humans being used as pets on a alien world, it is sooo trippy. I think you’ll like it.
glad my shit had you rolling on the floor.

I just stepped over a trailer for some new x-men animated series. It’s about fucking time. I always knew there’d be a new one someday. I don’t care that it looks like X-Men Evolution but grown up. Evolution was lame imo. This looks much more better. They’re doing it so that Wolverine is at the forefront. I suppose so that it rides the heels of Jackman’s movie comming out next year or whatever. I’m interested.
Also, we were talking a tiny bit about Marvel/Lionsgate Animated features in the forum a while back. It appears the next 2 they are releasing are 1) Next Avengers – which I’m sure my little nephew will love. and 2) Hulk Versus – where Hulk fights Thor, then Wolverine in 2 shorter features.
I saw the preview of the Wolverine one and it looks like it’s going to kick ass.
anyhoo…
I read all the hardcovers up to Issue 48. Now it’s really hard to wait for the next issue every month but at least it’s coming out regularly. I end up reading them more than once each which is okay. Kirkman Rules!

Millar is taking this book in 4 great directions at once. He’s really keeping up my anticipation for the next issue like he did with Ultimates.

It kind of shocked me a bit to find out Millar & Hitch were going to be taking over this title. I haven’t really liked The FF since ..um ever. I did like the reprints I read of the Lee/Kirby FF but I was on drugs at the time. Needless to say that the team of Millar & Hitch produced probably one of the BEST comics of all time with Ultimates & Ultimates 2. It still seemed strange that they would take on a title with such integrity and a thick history within the Marvel Universe. I’ve picked up every issue since they started the run though, and it’s interesting enough to keep reading. These guys could probably pick up any mediocre title and make it worth while. I’m enjoying this book.
