The PositiveBrand Podcast Dear Pete. Thanks for the props. I talked with your Master, Mr. Mark Torres. It looks like I'm going to be on the show May 31st. Thanks for the invite. Right now I have no idea what I'm going to talk about it but I'll probably just make it up as I go along. The story of my misdirected life. RE:
Dark Dallas Dear
PositiveBrand. It looks great. Looking forward to see what happens
next. That´s one cold killer. Dear
PositiveBrand. Upon reading your moody, crackerjack serialized detective
yarn "Dark Dallas", our Chief Assistant Vice-President
Of New Comics Reading Department, Dr. Hieronymus "Zip"
Bingosky, erupted in delight with a full four Monkey Thumb Rating. RE:
Batman Meets Dick Tracy Dear
PositiveBrand. The Batman Meets Dick Tracy story looks really interesting.
Love the ink. Let me know when the next part is up. Dear
PositiveBrand. So far so GREAT! the inks are the BALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear
PositiveBrand. Really great art and concept. The art makes me think
Frank Miller meets Bill Scienkweicz. I'm a huge Dick Tracy Fan.
I've had two phone book size collections of the original Chester
Gould strips since I was 7. They never leave my shelf. Let me know
if you ever get this printed! Thanks Dear Kosmix, I'm glad you like the story. Tommy Davidson provided the inks and it's dynamite stuff. This is part one of a two part story. Part two will be out later this year (2007) online but this story won't see print. Sorry. It's simply a fan story so there's no way for us to sell copies and recoup the printing costs. So get your fill online right here. RE:
Daniel Crosier's Art (The Zombie, The Land of Andrak, Sons of Soil) Dear
PositiveBrand. Loved "Sons of Soil". really creepy and
weird. and the art is top notch. great work. Dear
PositiveBrand. Saw the "Sons of Soil" comic - DIG IT!
Dear
PositiveBrand. Daniel Crosier's artwork rocks! Right on man! Something
new and unique! Dear Josh, I couldn't agree more. Daniel is a fantastic artist and writer as well as an accomplished filmmaker. We're fortunate to be able to include an artist of his caliber in the work we produce here. If you haven't checked out his covers, scope our homepage and don't leave the site without seeing his Sons of Soil Movie Prequel Comic here. RE:
Donners Superman Dear Robert, I'm sure that Ultimate Superman Collection put your daughter back a pretty penny. They're asking for a big chunk of change for that set. You must be giving your daughter a hefty allowance and even still, it was very generous on her part. I'm not sure what the differences there are (if any) betwen the versions of the 1st Superman movie. But considering your daughter's investment in your movie watching enjoyment, I recommend you watch both versions back to back with a considerable amount of attention. You'll want to soak in every bit of nuance on every one of those DVDs just to demonstrate your gratitude to your daughter. And once you're done, you'll please drop me an email and let me know what those differences are. Natch, I'm sure. RE:
Toy Museum Dear Terri, it was twisted fantasies just like yours that lead to the creation of the Action Figure Museum. I'm sure you'll feel right at home once you get there. I'm not sure I would recommend testing the alarm system, though. I've read too many comic books and watched too much Twilight Zone. I'm pretty sure breaking into the Action Figure Museum under the cover of night would only result in bringing all of those action figures to life with one purpose... destroy the evil intruders. It could ugly. They have a Cave Troll. And a Balroc for that matter. Anyhow, that's my playing with action figures scenario and I stand by it. RE:
October Comics Dear Kirkman's Mother, calling Ant-Man very fast-paced is like calling the line at the Texas State Title and Registration Office an express lane. While I appreciate solid character development, I prefer to have it developed during the action instead of preceding the action. Mark Millar is excellent at this approach where he will have his characters completely involved in some kind of deadly activity that he uses to reveal the character of his characters by the way they respond and deal with the intensity of their situation. Kirkman did it with Marvel Zombies. It's not like he can't do it. I just think he spent too much time lollygaggin' on this one. That's all. RE:
Warriors Dear Nameless, come out to play-a-yay. 'Cause that's what this is all about. Just a little fun with me and my homeboys, seventies style. So if you're not chillin', you're illin'. RE:
Coolest Character in Comics Right
on, man. This is the best written review of a fictional character
I have ever read. It shows you have put a lot of thought, effort,
and time on this awesome awesome job. Right
on, man. You're a genius. We received numerous letters of agreement with our article about the Coolest Character in Comics. We thought we made a pretty convincing case so "thank you" to all of you Dick Grayson fans out there who have seen the light. But despite our best efforts, we haven't been able to convince everyone. And that's okay. That's life. Consider for example why Windows has beat out Macintosh as the most popular (or common) PC platform. Or why VHS beat out Beta back in the day. Just look at the popularity of professional wrestling. All of this is just proof that what is right and best is not always most popular. We conducted an onsite poll to findout exactly how the big boys of comics stack up. Unfortunately Dick Grayson was not at the top of the list. He came in third place with 12% of the vote. First place was poned by Spider-Man with a whopping 21.7%. Tied for second place (which seems somehow fitting) is Batman and Wolverine, each with 20.5% of the popular vote to their names. Captain America was completely defeated at the bottom of the list with only 2.4%. How uncool is that? Adding insult to injury are the numerous comments of disagreement we received about this article as seen in the following excerpts. Grayson's
pretty cool but there's a lot of others who outdo him in it, assuming
you're willing to search a bit. Take John Gaunt, AKA Grimjack. Incredibly
tough guy who's greatest asset is simply that he really knows the
city he lives in. I could talk about what makes him cool for a while,
but the best way to sum it all up is simply to mention that when
he was died he walked out of heaven knowing he could never come
back in order to save a friend. You
suck! Yo, Mike, what's up with Dick Grayson being the coolest character
in comics? That's just ridiculous. For crying out loud, he's the
kid that says "Holy Flooding Water Tank Batman, we're about
to drown!" How is that anywhere near cool? It's just childish
and stupid. Also, Wolverine kicks ass, and he's totally fun to be
around with all his swearing, smoking, and drinking, I mean, who
doesn't want to hang out with that kind of person. Well, I hope
you realize your mistake and write another article apologizing to
me, UltimateRuler934. pfft!...
Tim will always be cooler than Dick. RE: Venture Bros & Jonny Quest Right
on, man. I'm down with allthat. You said it right. Just, you should
have included more on the villains. I like the Monarch, and Mr.
Wendesday. JJ, your words have the ring of righteousness to them. Glad you're hip to the power that is Jonny Quest. Sorry to disappoint you in the area of villains. It's a fair comment. Although, as good as the villains are, none compare to the genius that is the Tic's Mad Bomber What Bombs at Midnight. He's the all time best wacky villain ever. Anyway, keep it real. Don't you go changin'. RE:
The Arena, Issue 1 Um... you're welcome. I think this issue did something extra special for Sammy. Although I am loathe to guess what exactly. At any rate, we received a fantastic, positive response to our latest serial, The Arena. The Thanks really go to the creative team of Terry Heronime (writer), Mike Heronime (pencils), and Peter Palmiotti (inks). A few other comments follow. Great
work! Nice
site! Right
on, man. Great lines, shadows. Hope to see more. Franco RE:
Batman Year 100 Aww... Indifferent, your attitude is so, uh, indifferent. Which is a shame really. This series absolutely kicks ass. Art and story were perfect every step of the way. All comics should be as entertaining. Please tell me you were just kidding. Or you thought the review was just "meh" and not Batman Year 100. Yeah, that's got to be it. Hey, wait a sec... So, what do you think? Agree? Disagree? Give us your feedback.

This strip originally appeared in Wizard magazine. It made us laugh so hard we peed our pants. Now our only hope for redemption will be gained by causing others to wet themselves as well. Read on with caution. If you think it's as funny as we do, why don't you buy an issue or two of Wizard magazine. They need the encouragement.
