Spiderman Loves Mary Jane- I miss you~!

So Generally i am not a big fan of mainstream stuff, call it bucking the system or whatever you wish. I just typically do not enjoy the superhero, spandex clad, big breasted women of those sorts of things. Granted i do love bone, and those sort, but i usually run at the sight of spandex. So call me surprised when i found my love for spiderman loves Mary Jane which at the time was just mary jane. I was at some hole in the wall lame excuse for a comic convention out of a knights of Columbus hall, when i stumbled upon a 3 pack of MJ, for a buck. So i figured hey why not. I crack it open and by a few pages in i am intrigued.

After several comics and a few graffic novels, it stops. The art got kind of crappy in comparision to its predecessors, and whamo no warning it stops.

So i ask to my readers, where are my Smlmj?

Anyways moving on, the art is wonderful, smooth lines, easily read facial expressions and you can genuinely feel for the characters as you go along. I hate when you have a comic and you have to guess how they feel because their facial expressions are so terrible. The issues are in color, the story is wonderful and moves along greatly. If you arent into teenie bopper superhero stunt lacking stuff this isnt for you, there are are a few "superhero" stunts where spidey saves mj, but only twice. If you enjoy any of Chynna Clugston Majors Blue Monday, Scooter Girl, Strangetown, etc. Then you may enjoy this. I am in no way comparing Chynnas stuff to this, i think she is wonderful, but it has similarities.

(*edit- i looked up for spiderman loves Mj and it says it will be relaunched again, relatively in the near future, with Terry Moore, and Adrian Alphona)

Anyways- Thats all for today!
Expect more frequent updates-
Oh and the original art looks like whats featured up top, i cant find any of the new artists work.

A Start

I grew up, liking cartoons, and i actually found out that i watched anime as a kid without even realizing it. As i got older i stumbled upon Chynna Clugstons's Blue Monday Series, which opened the door to indie comics.
I am generally not a big superhero fan, but if it has a good story and decent art i may like it. I love Blankets, and Bone which i stumbled upon, at a small town library in clinton, michigan. I love many types of comics, i enjoy power pack, its soo cute! Kinda super heroish. I started dating a guy almost 3 years ago, who was drawing comics, and setting up at conventions. Before that i had never been to a comic convention. I had no idea what to expect. That con was pretty un eventful. But the next i got to meet Lori Petty (tank girl, a league of their own), which was pretty awesome. And since then i look forward to cons for the people you meet, the art, the stories, and the atmosphere. Like last week i went to the Mid-Ohio Con, i got to meet Steve Rude (nexus) a wonderful guy, very nice, fabulous artist. Doug Jones(fantastic four-silver surfer, pans labyrinth), and Sarah Douglas(Superman 2) they all were wonderful, people that helped make the con an experience. I was however bummed out at the turn out for the con, i know its the weekend after thanksgiving, but sometimes, the con isles were empty. That is not cool. Aside from the movie stars, and main stream artists. What i look for in a con are the indie artists, the webcomic people, and the beautiful art work. Some people that i have stumbled upon, are
Jane Irwin (Vogelein),
Danielle Corsetto(Girls with Slingshots)
Mike Bocianowski (Yets!)

And Many More, i made this so when i found a comic that i absolutely love i can share with you, so you can pick up one too.
