Becoming Superman by J. Michael Straczynski

Becoming Superman by J. Michael Straczynski

Graphic: Natalie Peeples

You likely know the work, though you might not know the name: J. Michael Straczynski. A writer for hire in the truest sense, Straczynski, or Joe to his friends and JMS to his fans, can seemingly write anything. Maybe you grew up on his cartoons he scripted: He-Man, She-Ra, The Real Ghostbusters. Or the television shows he created: Babylon 5, all its spinoff sequels…

A Comic Book Publisher Creates Its Own Origin Story

A new publisher, AWA, will have a connected superhero universe as well as stand-alone comics.

JMS is on the new ‘creative council’ at AWA, aka Artists, Writers, Artisans.  Interesting!

If anyone is wondering whether to watch Babylon 5 when it hits Amazon Prime in June (in the US anyway, I don’t know about other countries) the fact that the creator is really engaged with fans on Twitter might be another reason to watch.

This ‘First Ones’ reference to the show is just lovely.

Today's #December_CoverartChallenge theme was "Worst Run Ever" This was a tough one for me. Not because of a shortage of candidates but because I got rid of most of the usual suspects. I sold DK2 & Brand New Day & post Claremont 90's uncanny X-men (the Portacio run), and I gave away Spider-Man: Chapter 1. So all the stuff I really really loathe has been banned from my collection. But @cornelius.grayl reminded me of this boring snoozefest of a Superman tale. And hey, I still own a few issues of it. Heavy handed moral stories with zero internal logic about a Superman who doesn't want to be super. Some of the themes were interesting but they were badly researched or badly executed, as they often hammered the moral down the reader's throats through waaaay too much expositional dialog. Grounded sucks and #straczynski should have been grounded for writing this sh*t. But instead they gave him Wonder Woman too... I just hope the New 52 erased both his runs from continuity. (now if only Marvel would do the same for his Spider-Man run, especially his swan song and let's not forget the loathsome Sins Past story.) Well that's enough bitchin for me!
