METABARONS: SECOND CYCLE By ALEJANDRO JODOROWSKY & JERRY FRISSEN | Humanoids Comics | The Incal
Thanks everyone for watching! If anyone is watching the replay… DROP A COMMENT! I always reply !
I received my copy of UFO Mushroom Invasion last Friday. Fun read. I hope LtL’s Smudge imprint continues releasing obscure manga. Thanks for the video. Cool channel too
I agree! I love the idea of the Smudge imprint and what they’ve released so far! Thanks for watching!
Exile is amazing! I've also read Centralia digitally. I think the creator was only 18 when he started on the comic. I have to push up that on my to-buy list now, it's a great story . Both are Dutch comics btw. I hope LTL will continue to find more amazing stuff to publish. Moonray has been on my radar, so looking forward to your review/overview, maybe you push me over the edge to get it :) I don't like the idea of AI art at all, but at least they are fully transparent about it, then the reader can decide for themself. It would've been way worse if they tried to hide the fact in my opinion.
@@marcspectororamijakelockle7232 They were only 18?! Holy crap! I’m going to have to look into that. And yes, LTL has been on my radar and now will be even moreso. I’ll definitely being doing a Moonray overview VERY SOON! And yea, I HATE the idea of AI art in comics. But, it can’t be ignored either. This will be an interesting comic to dive into and discuss.
My list: 10. Master of Kung Fu 9. Uncanny X-Men vol. 3 8. Doctor Strange vol. 1 7. S.H.I.E.L.D. 6. Captain America by Ed Brubaker 5. Infinity Gauntlet 4. Daredevil by Miller Companion 3. Invaders 2. Kull The Savage 1. Yellow/Blue/Gray/White by Loeb and Sale
That is a great list! I haven't ever read Kull before, but judging from the rest of your list, we have similar tastes! Maybe I need to try it out!
I agree- as a FF reader from issue 5 ( first I found back in Jr High) I think November 66 thru April 67 was the highest run of Stan and Jack (issues 45 thru 52) with Spider-Man 30 thru 33 at the same time the highlight of Ditko’s run.
@@ronfisher5259 Yes! Those are both the peaks of that era!
The only two of those I own are the Miracleman and Silver Surfer omnis (in fact, I think the only other Marvel omnis that I own are the first two Stephen King Dark Tower collections). I'm much more of an indie reader, so it takes a lot to get me to read straight-up super hero books. I was pleasantly surprised with how genuine that love story is in the Slott/Allred (Allred was my main reason for picking it up) Silver Surfer. It was a sweet, wonderful book and I couldn't recommend it enough.
Yea, when it comes to modern comics I lean more heavily towards Indies. I do agree that Slott/Allred's Surfer is a great run that can crossover to non-superhero comics fans! Thanks for watching!
Awesome stuff brotha! Really hoping one day we get a SHIELD reprint 👏👏
thanks, man!
You spend twenty minutes apologizing for words, images and intent of the creators. I just wrote a short story for my most recent book that took place on an American sub in the wake of the Pearl Harbor attack and pulled no punches in language or intent of the "Japanese" soldiers. The story would be false to not say "Japs" or "nips" to represent the feelings (and actions) of the times and the outrage of the cowardly, backstabbing slaughter of our Navy while the whole time professing peaceful dialogue through diplomacy in Washington, D.C. through politics. Call them what they were at that moment and quit apologizing for living in the now. Hell, you even referred to the U.S. as being militaristic and warlike! Grow a pair.
@@PatrolOfficer161 Wow… I feel like you missed my intent. I’m not apologizing for anyone. I’m not apologizing for their art. I’m explaining why Spielberg called it racist in his letter. Why people viewing this comic for the first time in 2024 might see it as racist. And then how it’s not racist and it was an intentional choice by the creators to depict the events in their truest form.
That's John Belushi. Jim is his brother.
@@user-wq9vh9ik1m I know. I made a pinned comment stating my mistake there. Later in the video when I’m showing off the comic, I properly refer to him as “John.”
You should try the Neil Gaiman library. 3 volumes with short stories
I’ve been considering that actually! I like a lot of the artists on them. And I’ve always wanted to read his Lovecraft influenced stuff.
“There won’t be any mutants on this list”…choice number 2!!😂👏👍✌️
@@OffMyShelves hahahaa I know… I knooowww… 🤦🏻♂️I’m such a doofus
@@TaylorTalksComics A beautiful doofus with a great top ten!
Nice collection 👌. Could you do a video about the Trigan Empire?
Yes! I will have to do that!
So you just find out about Lobo? That's what happens when you have Captain America in your profile.
@@AngelOfTheCity82 Hahaha this video is from a few years ago! I have since read a bunch of Lobo! I did an overview of the recent 1250+ page compendium on one of my more recent videos!
No mutants... then your second one haha
@@fireboy312002 I knoooww… hahaha 🤦🏻♂️ I meant like mainline continuity, I guess?
@@TaylorTalksComics so these aren't real xmen comics?! For shame
@@fireboy312002 just the best X-Men comics!
TRICK QUESTION! You sell yours to get Taschen books
@@fireboy312002 It’s true! I’ll always upgrade to that format!
Very cool!
@@edward2962 it is! Thanks for watching!
I hope you revisit this topic. I enjoyed this very much
@@comix5281 I think I will! And thank you!
Would you buy the Taschen version if it will come out?
Oh, 100%!
Love the art but the dialogues are so weak. That is the reason I did not buy it. Daredevil is my favourite Marvel character. Daredevil belongs more to DC because of his darker and painful character.
@@Crazecollector Totally understand it’s not for everyone, but I’ve always found Stan Lee’s writing to be quite charming.
@@TaylorTalksComicsi always thought for Lee, Daredevil was more of a sidekick for him. For me DD has the most depth of marvel superheroes. I do not think of DD as a superhero
@@Crazecollector Yea, it’s by no way Lee’s strongest work. But, it’s not his worst either. The love triangle between Matt, Foggy, and Karen is done well by comparison of the romance comics from the same era.
I know it has the big red and white Marvel label on it, but I don't consider Miracleman a proper Marvel omnibus, but maybe that's just me. But it is amazing. Here's my top 10, at least this week. I also have the Taschen Spideys, so that would explain their absence. If Taschen ultimately produces an FF volume three, it will be the greatest collected edition in the history of collected editions. In no particular order: Slott/Allred SS - one of the greatest comics of the 21st century Doctor Strange vol One by Ditko and Lee - same for the 20th century The Golden Age of Simon & Kirby - the compete Captain America and every other pre-WWII S&K Marvel comics. Historically and artistically important, and just great comics. The stupidly titled The Thanos Wars: Infinity Origin - but it contains the complete Warlock and Captain Marvel 1970s cosmic runs by Jim Starlin. The Savage Sword of Conan vol One - Roy Thomas, Barry Windsor-Smith, and John Buscema Conan without the comics code. Crom. The Defenders, vol Two - Steve Gerber's complete 1970s batshit crazy Defenders run, the best Marvel Bronze Age team book. I said what I said. FF, vol Two - you covered this. Captain America by Kirby, 1970s run - I don't have a volume One, or it would surely make this list. Like you're holding out for a Dr. Strange Taschen, I am likewise holding out for a Cap. But this seventies Cap is bonkers in the best way possible, and it is truly amazing that The King had Cap runs in three different decades that are brilliant but completely different from each other. Man-Thing - I've always felt like Steve Gerber's weird-ass muck monster from the Nexus of All Realities is the true predecessor of Alan Moore's Swamp Thing run, even more so than that character's earlier run. The Book of Doom - a giant collection of Doctor Doom stories, what's not to love?
@@5dork5 Man! I absolutely love your list! I’m a big Steve Gerber fan too! And yes! If Taschen does a volume 3 of FF…. That will be the best book in my collection.
Sez there will be no mutants on the list. Second book is X men grand design. What a hypocrite!😂 Also title of the video should replace the word marvel to DC to make it ten times better!
@@clsrocks007 hmmm… good point… And I’ll be doing DC next week!
@@TaylorTalksComics it should have been done first. Note omnidog n me are cross
@@clsrocks007 best for last?
Great list! I already own almost all of it except for the Piskor X-Men, the Slott Surfer and Miracleman. Like you I'm a Ben Grimm fan so looking forward to the first Marvel Two-In-One omni release...
@@davidosborn6714 YES! I can’t wait! I have the first two Epics of Two-in-one, but I’ll be upgrading FOR SURE!
It was an interesting choice to film this in the soace under your house, Taylor. You look enormous.
@@ReaperXC hahahaha
Going through my own read through of 60s Marvel. I'd struggled a bit in my first attempt, but something has really clicked this time. Up to early '65 with anticipation of the best is yet to come! Quick shout out to a separate podcast, Marvel by the Month. I particularly enjoy their beginning of episode recaps of USA events/news as they go month by month - fascinating to have that context. I have the two Taschen Spider-Man volumes - worth every single penny! I've read that Avengers vol 2 is likely the next to print - here's to Thor being soon on the docket 🤞
@@JohnGeorgePepperz Whoa! That sounds awesome! I’ll have to check them out. And I’m glad you’re getting on with ‘60s Marvel this time around! Silver Age Marvel is my favorite era of comics!
We need a room tour! Every video I find myself more and more curious about the room you record in. I’m never sure if you’re in a crawl space, room, or what lol
@@Illuminerdy_ hahaha! I was going to say I did a Room Tour about a year ago. But, that was at our old house. I record in our basement. And the ceilings ARE pretty low. But, I’m short, so it’s just fine. This is only where I keep half my collection though. We have a “library” room upstairs that has the rest of my books and my son’s books.
@@TaylorTalksComics That sounds awesome! Would love to see the new set up!
@@Illuminerdy_ yea! I definitely plan to do another tour. But, it’s one of my goals to build custom shelves this year and I want to wait until after that!
Nice list. I don't even own 10 Marvel omnibus so my favorites that I do are: Alias, All New Wolverine, Gwenpool, Runaways, Silver Surfer by Allred and Slott and Unbeatable Squirrel Girl.
@@chrisbrogan7241 That’s a great list, too! I loved All New Wolverine! I need to read Gwenpool and Squirrel Girl!
Cool list. I'm making my way through the taschen fantastic four run which has been great.... and what a way to take it all in. I'm looking forward also to the taschen silver surfer and Thing omnibuses. I loved the Slott/Allred surfer. Cheers
@@NeuroSquire I am hoping they print at least two more volumes of the Fantastic Four Taschen books! That would take us through the material in Omnibus volume 2. Which will be the BEST version of those classic issues ever! Thanks for watching!
@@TaylorTalksComics that would be awesome. And another silver surfer too to finish that run.
@@NeuroSquire That would be awesome!
I leafned to love and appreciate the older and more traditional art work
@@candyman02 It’s great stuff!
I’m not american so the term great american novel is new to me. But the way i understand it, i think Days of Sand by Aimee de Jongh could be one such title. It is a great story that has its roots in real historical events. The book teaches about a specific time period that, at least in Europe, we never learn in school. And the art is fantastic throughout the whole book.
@@Swissmagician That is one I’ve heard about a few times! Thanks for putting it back on my radar!
Thanks for this. Are the stories any good. Which one would you recommend story wise
@@Crazecollector They’re great! The best stories are in the EC comics collection I show or the Jacques Tardi book!
@@TaylorTalksComics thanks yes I have Tardi. So I will get the Death Stand. Great info videos 👍
@@Crazecollector Thanks! And thanks for watching!
Nice! FF 2, Thor Simonson Iron Man Micheline/Layton Spidey Stern Uncanny Xmen 3 Captain America Brubaker Hulk Peter David 2 Planet Hulk Adam Warlock Savage Sword of Conan 1
@@dhmcadams662 love your list!
Always nice to hear you give some love to Silver Age comics, brother. Would love it if Marvel reprinted the Lee/Kirby Fantastic Four run. Good video. Love hearing you wax poetic: about comics, about a thing you love, about something you're passionate about.
@@killer36ize Thank you! I love talking comics! And yea, Marvel silver age is my favorite period of comics! They’ll reprint Lee/Kirby FF eventually.
Surprised to not see Doctor Strange by Steve Ditko on here. Personally feel like that was Ditko's best work and an all time Marvel run. My personal top 10 would be: 1. Fantastic Four by Lee & Kirby Vol. 2 2. Daredevil by Miller & Janson 3. Uncanny X-Men Vol. 3 4. Thor by Simonson (even despite the recoloring) 5. Doctor Strange Vol. 1 6. X-Statix 7. Punisher MAX by Ennis Vol. 1 8. Alpha Flight by John Byrne 9. Moon Knight Vol. 1 10. Sensational She-Hulk by John Byrne Honorable mentions: Master of Kung Fu Vol. 4 (for the glorious Gene Day artwork), Fantastic Four by Hickman Vol. 1, Miracleman, Howard the Duck, Iron Man by Michelinie & Layton Vol. 1, Thor Vol. 1, Incredible Hulk by PAD Vol. 1, New X-Men by Morrison
@@rickray1202 I don’t own Doctor Strange by Ditko or else it definitely would’ve made the list! I sold my copy in hopes that Taschen would do the entire run in one volume! I love your list! I love DD by Miller and Thor by Simonson! But, I’m going to be getting those in Epics.
1941 was one oif the worst things little Stevey ever put out. Bad script, bad fast-cutting, etc. Just awful. So do I now want a comic book adaption of it? Nope.
@@MrEdWeirdoShow If you’re a fan of comics… and a fan of Bissette and Veitch, you might!
I have this comic and it's pretty edgy.
@@Concreteowl definitely!
I’ve got to buy this. As 47yr old lifelong Lobo fan, this looks incredible. I’d love to see Lobo on the big screen but I think he best suited for the comics!
Yes! I do think Jason Mamoa and James Gunn could make a fun Lobo movie! But, the comics are GREAT!
GREAT VIDEO! This totally deserved the omnibus treatment! So much fun and heart in these stories! Keep up the hard work! Been producing some Great content!
@@Illuminerdy_ thanks, man! And I would totally buy a Lobo omnibus!
As a Japanese American There's nothing racist about this America was at war with the Japanese and when you're at war with people you call them bad names my God people are so soft comic book collectors are so soft Everything so racist gosh quit the white shame bro
The time this comic and movie were made, America was not at war with Japan. In 2024, we are not at war with Japan. So, in those contexts, it can viewed as racist. I was merely speaking about that and that the choice was intentional by the creators to accurately depict the mood from Americans at the time and explain why Spielberg called it racist in his letter. Thanks for watching!
Tempted to get a volume, but the binding looks really cheap and nasty. Is it glue or just string or something holding it together? Thanks for the video.
@@JONNYSORENSEN_AU just your normal glued TPB. The binding has bells up for me so far though one read thru.
Ha! I have this comic and love the movie. And yeah, this comic is bonkers. Spielberg's letter got a genuine lol out of me. I don't see it as all that controversial. It was a different time. The bad guys were the bad guys and people apparently had thicker skins back when the movie was released.
@@Bullitt3401 I can see it being controversial, just because the caricatures used for Japanese people were the racist propaganda pieces used in the ‘40s. This comic and movie were made 30+ years later “knowing better.” But, I think the use for those caricatures was INTENTIONAL. To depict how they were used in the ‘40s. So, on its surface, they used them in 1979, but the nuance is that it was an accurate portrayal of the time. Just one of those things that needs context and nuance.
The movie is partially based on the Ellwood shelling -Feb 23 1942 and the Battle of Los Angeles -Feb 24 1942
I bought a copy a few years ago off the Heavy Metal website. It was dirt chea(along with some others I bought). I actually saw the movie years ago and the graphic novel wasn't bad.The artwork was a bit zany but still an enjoyable read.
@@thomasbentley4757 that’s where I got my copy too!
As far as racism goes, let's be honest----the Japanese were at war with America in the time period depicted
Yes, I understand that. That is why I explained why they used the racist caricatures and nomenclature. In 2024, or even 1979.... Those can be viewed as racist. But, they were depicted the climate of 1941. And accurately so.
I owned this growing up and looked at it all the time. I bought another copy off of Ebay a few years back and it's a prized possession. Not because I needed it--I still have the original. I never knew Spielberg disassociated himself from it, but even back then I was surprised by how violent and sexual the comic was. Which appealed to me as a teenage boy.
Yea! It really is an amazing comic from an artistic and creative standpoint!
🙄That's a laugh that Spielberg called contents of the book racist when there are scenes in his movies that are intentionally racist. Example? When he took over Kubrick's film "A I " starring that kid from The Sixth Sense why did he have every other robot looking like a normal human yet he had the robot played by Chris Rock ( which is even more surprising that Rock even took the part) made up as the stereotypical Sambo. How did anyone miss that direct in your face bigotry? Oh but Spielberg did The Color Purple is the defense yeah because he got criticism for having ET non minority populated and why did he pick a story set in the MAGA past to feature an all African American story instead of developing a present or futuristic fresh idea? That's why I LOL when he condemned racist content in the book.
@@anthonyperdue3557 it’s definitely interesting!
When Stanley Kubrick and Spielberg first met, he told him that he liked 1941 -- but he should have done it as a drama...
@@fiacco3000 I read that the script and movie was intended as a drama at first too. But, Spielberg insisted it to be a comedy.
Never heard of this channel before and I'm afraid of Libraries, but I sees Doop in the Thumbnail so I gotta' click.
Haha! Thanks! Click subscribe if you don’t mind too!
More enjoyable than the movie. The movie suffers from not having a central character to form an emotional throughline. The waiter would have been the perfect candidate. The movie is fine, the comic is amazing.
I agree! The movie isn’t as bad as people say. But, the comic is GREAT.
When I was younger, 1941 (the movie) was on HBO all the time and I would sit and watch it every chance I could. I always saw it as a slapstick comedy making gun of jingoistic, racist American attitudes towards the Japanese, as well as war itself. Of course, I'll be the first to admit that I haven't seen it since my teenage years and I'm 57 now, so I'm not sure that I would have the same point of view about it now. I did pick up the comic adaptation maybe 25 years ago purely based on my nostalgic love of the movie, and their respective runs on titles like Swamp Thing, Maximortal, Brat Pack, Tyrant, etc., and although I remember being captivated by what Veitch and Bissette did on those pages, I don't remember being particularly impressed with the adaptation itself. I did see that Kayfabe interview you mentioned, so maybe I need to go back and reread it with my more current knowledge of the hardships they endured making it in mind.
@@MrKlove01 It’s definitely a fun comic to visit from the creative and artistic stand point. As a story and reading experience, it’s not much. The best part there is seeing what they got “right” as far as adapting the movie in spite of the conditions they made the comic.
