E is for Extinction: Convinced that humanity is doomed to be wiped out in three or four generations and replaced by mutants, telepath Cassandra Nova unleashes the Master Mold sentinels on Genosha. Can the X-Men stop her? I have a confession to make. Never the less, I enjoyed the first arc in this collection. The New X-Men: Ultimate Collection Book 1 and the dialogue are vintage Grant Morrison, as is the shaking up of th E is for Extinction: Convinced New X-Men: Ultimate Collection Book 1 humanity is doomed to be wiped out in three or four generations and replaced by mutants, telepath Cassandra Nova unleashes the Master Mold sentinels on Genosha. The scope and the dialogue are vintage Grant Morrison, as is the shaking up of the status quo a bit by wiping out most of Genosha. Cassandra Nova was a pretty vile villain and I doubt I've seen the last of her. Professor X showed he has testicles like grapefruits in the conclusion of the story. The second story in the collection had two things going against it for me. It was sideways and Frank Quitley didn't do the art. Other than that, I enjoyed the interplay between Cyclops and Emma Frost. Xorn seemed more like a Doom Patrol character than an X-Man. On a related note, I always thought it was weird when Marvel wooed Vertigo writers away from DC and stuck them on superhero titles. The third story in the book is untitled as far as I can tell. It's an okay issue but has some chilling implications at the end. Damn that Cassandra Nova is sinister! Emma and Cyclops are captured, Wolverine recruits a bug-winged girl named Angel, and Sublime's forces storm a certain school for gifted youngsters This story was well worth the read. The background plot with Cassandra Nova advanced quite a bit, and the John Sublime plot came to conclusion of sorts. What will they find? This story was fairly brief. There was very little text but what little there was was powerful. The origin of Cassandra Nova was revealed! Imperial was mostly setup but I have a feeling the payoff is going to New X-Men: Ultimate Collection Book 1 huge. I'm a little surprised that The Gladiator hasn't made an appearance yet. Testament: Just as the Beast figures out the origin of the flu that's plaguing the school, the Shi'ar Imperial Guard arrive Gladiator showed up. Meanwhile, Cyclops and Xorn are held captive aboard the Shi'ar flagship. Carnage ensues. The thing about Grant Morrison that always sparks my interest is how he uses the powers of characters in new ways. In this book I'm excited New X-Men: Ultimate Collection Book 1 the final issue of this collection. All Hell: The story of Cassandra Nova comes to its conclusion Yeah, the ending was worthwhile and the trip getting there was completely worth it. Despite my last exposure to the X-Men being sometime in the mid's, I had no trouble following New X-Men: Ultimate Collection Book 1 story. Morrison brought his sense of scope to the title and elevated a bit in my estimation. It's damn good. View all 5 comments. Jul 09, James DeSantis rated it really liked it.

The purpose of this research is to adapt the approaches used by prominent and influential writers and artists in the American superhero/action comic-book field to create an engaging Australian hero comic book. Further, the aim of this thesis is to bridge the gap between the lack of academic writing on the professional practice of the Australian comic industry. In order to achieve this, I explored and learned the methods these prominent and professional US writers and artists use. Compared to the American industry, the creating of comic books in Australia has rarely been documented, particularly in a formal capacity or from a contemporary perspective. The process I used was to navigate through the research and studio practice from the perspective of a solo artist with an interest to learn, and to develop into an artist with a firmer understanding of not only the medium being engaged, but the context in which the medium is being created.

  • Comics – Expanding Narrative Possibilities, Integrating Into The
    Comics – Expanding Narrative Possibilities, integrating into the classroom Nick Sousanis (Original version presented as a slide lecture at Teachers College July 13, 2011) More resources at www.comicsclassroom.wikispaces.com, contact [email protected] For me, comics, in their capacity to incorporate and integrate the visual equally alongside the verbal, facilitate and offer the capacity for more whole ways of expression and representation. They are a great gateway to literacy – though they offer much more than that. This was my personal experience as a child with a much older brother who got me reading his comics, and that simultaneously hastened my reading of more straight up texts: From “Bi(bli)ography” by Sousanis, all author comics at www.spinweaveandcut.com The Italian writer Italo Calvino credits looking at translated American comic strips before he learned to read as being instrumental in opening his mind to imagination, this “thinking in terms of images. … I could easily dispense with the words – the pictures were enough. … in my mind I told myself the stories, interpreting the scenes in different ways” (p. 93). Even after he was reading, he recounts, “I preferred to ignore the written lines and to continue with my favorite occupation of daydreaming within the pictures and their sequence” (p. 94). Calvino’s comments not only point to the literacy aspects of reading comics, but to the participatory nature of the medium, as we’ll see in a bit. I see comics as an accessible vehicle for deep explanation, but more, integrated visual-verbal in an equal and whole way, that offer a wholeness about them.
