Vertigo: Graphic Content Blog Archive Grant Morrison?s JOE THE BARBARIAN update
The previews for this comic look great. I love the covers I've seen on-line. But I haven't seen it yet. The comic shop keeps selling out or under-ordering. Thoughts? |

Picked up Joe the Barbarian 1 (0f 8). I love the scene where Joe is surrounded by the living incarnation of his toys in toy land. Snake Eyes is there.
anyone else reading this yet? |

I read #1, have #2, haven't gotten to it yet.
It's pretty good. I like Morrison's stuff like this. I usually hate his super hero stuff.

I read the 1st one. Seems cool! Good to know the 2nd one is out. The scene toward the end w/ the action figures (Was it Batman missing a leg? Somebody was.) was VERY cool.

Batman is leaning on the Spirit. I think it's supposed to be Captain Picard that lost a leg.

haha. Yeah, that's it! Reminds me of combining all my different figures from different collection in huge mega-battles when I was a kid.

I love seeing them surrounding Joe and then seeing them as toys around him in about the same position. Nice.
The first issue debuted at a dollar. I like when Vertigo does that, it sucks me in nearly every time. I'm enjoying thus far. This is a limited series (8 issues) and I'm sure it will wind up in a trade paperback sooner or later. Captain Pikard (pretty sure based on the outfit and bald head) has lost a leg and is on crutches in #2. Should I have said spoiler alert? Here is a link to the upcoming Joe Barbarian issues if you're curious. http://www.dccomics.com/vertigo/comics/?cm=14819 Last edited by Big IV; 03-10-2010 at 08:02 AM.. |

2nd Issue was great.
I love how it goes back and forth between the hallucination and the real world. Awesome stuff.
