Astonishing X-Men #18 - Marvel


Again, props to www.milehighcomics.com for the photo assist. But honestly, what can I say about this book? For real! It's sheer perfection. Any one of these story arcs, that Joss and John have done over the course of this book, would make an awesome movie. Hell, they don't even have to do storyboards. These books, with John's beautiful visions, are the perfect templates. And if they don't use any of these ideas, then it would definitely be in their best interest to use Joss as the scriptor. I mean, the ideas, and the flow of this book under his tutelage, is just brilliant. The only downfall? They're only supposed to be on this book until issue #24. Say it isn't so!! Isn't there some way we can chain them to a desk or something? Can't we use sumbliminals to make them think that this is the only book they're supposed to work on? How about just another 6 issues? I know. It's a pipe dream. John is still doing his beautiful work over on Planetary, and Joss is doing another season of Buffy in comic book form. Awesome! But hopefully this book keeps going and they bring in a creative team with just as much talent. Or insanity. Whatever it is that drives the process. Just, Please! Please! don't let it end!!!
