What's this Super Dinosaur thing?

Super Dinosaur is...well, a super dinosaur. He's a T-Rex that is from the center of the Earth who teams up with the little kid to battle their arch nemesis who used to work with the kid's scientist father but who turned evil and got his own bunch of super dinosaurs from the center-of-the-Earth to help him do crime. I thought the first issue was pretty fun but don't think I'll continue to buy it. I may download it, but not sure.

SKULLKICKERS #7 [not sure if I bought issue #6 and since I had to sit down and download all the issues to finally read them in a row I guess it'd make sense for me to not pick it up, but it's pretty damn quirky I'm confused]

I agree with Edbertus. Legacy and Uncanny are rather enjoyable. Carey and Gillen, if I'm not mistaken? Both Englishmen. It's nice to see these two both get given greater writing responsibility.

Ruse is also pretty enjoyable, but I'm not quite fully into it. I think I might drop it after the first run, or pick it up in trades.

Yes, Carey on Legacy and Gillen on Uncanny. Carey's been on Legacy for a number of years now and it's been really enjoyable since he really got going. He was writing before the name switch and even made me enjoy Xavier as a character, which I'd never done until the first arc under the Legacy title.

Ruse is good but I didn't like the art in this issue. It felt really inconsistent. But as far as I can tell it's only a 4 issue mini, and Marvel will launch 2 more minis from the Crossgen company when Ruse and Sigil end. I'm sure they'll do another mini later, but I think they're doing other series first.

Ruse is somewhat of a letdown. Sigil is much more interestingm but the art is also a lot better.

Say Stocky, are you by any chance going to London MCM Expo convention this weekend?

Speaking of Cons. Wally, are you going to Big Apple con this weekend?

I forgot entirely about the Big Apple Con. Unfortunately I won't be attending because, after quickly googling it, it seems the Con was held last weekend May 21-22.

I'm disappointed I missed it but not that disappointed given that I didn't plan ahead at all and didn't break out any books to be signed. Though to be honest it would have been great to go to the very first Big A Con; and a two day Con would have been very do-able and fun if I was by my lonesome.

Well next year I shall plan better and keep it mind; hell they're already selling tickets to next year's Big Apple Con.

I know. Doh. I saw Ryan ottleys blog about being there then realized it was last weekend.

Oh well, I'm dumb.

I was going to ask a favor about that, but oh well.

I'm sorry I missed it as well, but if there is any other event coming up and you'd like something from said event just let me know and I'll do my best to get it for you.

This offer is, of course, open to all my BXers
