I don’t think that joke was for everyone but I certainly laughed when Jim called Void a Dave Sim homage
Dan Quayle misspelled "potatoes" in a spelling bee he took part in. It was a letter he wrote in regards to Murphy Brown being written as a single mother that got him the attention of the TV show. two separate incidents, but from around the same time.
I wrote my University Dissertation on WildCATS #1-4 🤣
....What?! Thats awesome.
Great video guys! I thoroughly enjoyed the sporadic approach to Jim's storytelling in this issue. Even though some may have found it confusing, I still find the fast-pace story telling to be very fitting --while also separating itself from others books, like X-Men. Attempts to dilute the story and make it more palatable for audiences could have resulted in a much weaker issue.
I got this book when it came out. Jim Lee's art is phenomenal. I have no idea what it's about. It's AWESOME! :)
Cyber Force #1 coming soon? You know you wanna. (And then you could do Claremont's Huntsman crossover with both WILDC.A.T.S and Cyber Force)
Jacob Marlowe lost his shins after he killed fiddy men in DubbyaDubbya Two!
I love when y'all do stuff that I own so I can read along on my copy!
Silvestri’s run on New X-men 2001 #151 + is absolute proof that he should have been up there at the top. Insane talent.
You're totally mixing up your Dan Quayle facts...he was a judge at a spelling bee and told a kid who spelled "potato" he was wrong...
Nerd test. you win.
@@CartoonistKayfabe i...win?😬
The Murphy Brown part of it was that he accused the show of glamorizing single-motherhood, when the character got pregnant.
Since the show was named after the character, the show runners were able to play that clip, in an episode, as though Quayle was talking about the character, in-universe. She responded by having a dump truck full of potatoes emptied onto his lawn (or the White House lawn, I can't recall that detail).
Everyday a new vid.....not sure how you guys do it but the effort and content is very much appreciated!
Love when you cover the 90s! Silvestri was my favourite back in the 90s over Jim Lee. I love Top Cow with The Darkness & Witchblade series.
6:40 Joe Rosas is a legend.... like Buchelato, Varley.,,
Todd owns the news Lady!
I think Grifter is a bit more Gambit than Wolverine. 🃏
Artistically, this is Jim Lee at the peak of his power. 🔥
I'm glad to hear you guys give Silvestri his due. I would be down for a dive into his X-Men done by you guys.
You are totally correct about the Tom Orzechowski reference.
Jim: "Void, I assume that's a Dave Sim homage?" Very funny.
Chris Claremont's Uncanny X-Men is the greatest run in comic book history. The stories, character development and progression. Also the contributions of amazing artists that brought his stories to life. John Bryne, John Romita, Marc Silvestri (my favorite artist to this day) and Jim Lee. Honorable mention to Rick Leonardi as he only drew a few issues but love his style.
I’m always amazed by the art when Jim and Ed showcase their books. These guys are very good!
My dad always told me that he was at school watching children write on a chalkboard and “corrected “ a kids spelling of potato. “ there’s an E on the end of that son”
That’s why we all love 90s
I knew about Dan Quayle, the Potatoe thing, the Murphy Brown thing, but like 13-odd-year-old me in Ireland had never seen Dan Quayle and had no idea who that guy was meant to be at the end of the comic until they mentioned him by name in like issue 3 or whatever.
To Ed that monolog about earning the readers respects is Dead on!!& couldn't agree more & shout out to Chris Clairmont 🙌🏽 💯💯
Wet works1
Silvestri on The Darkness was pretty cool.
Didn't George Miller introduce newscasters into comics in Dark Knight? Or maybe Alan Moore in V for Vendetta.
I came here to write that😂.
This is my era ... I love this stuff!
I was all in on all those early Image superhero books. It's pretty disappointing how many of them just died like this one, Stormwatch, & Cyber Force. Have only Spawn and Savage Dragon survived? My LCS doesn't even carry SD.
There were alot of Jim Lee clones back in the day, and currently the biggest clone of 'em all is none other than Brett Booth.
The short-legged guy looks like Cotton from King of the Hill
I discovered X-Men during Silvestri's run, so he'll always be my favorite X-artist, but he did lose me pretty quickly into his Image run
I'd pay 5.00 a month for a Wildcats comic drawn by Jim Lee. It's why I buy the Batman Catwoman limited with his covers every month
Joe Rosas was Jim Lee's colorist starting around Uncanny X-men issue 273, I think, right after X-Tinction Agenda, replacing Glynis Oliver, who had colored more than 100 issues of Uncanny X-men at that point. I remember being really impressed with Rosas, who went for a kind of cel-shading look, when I was a kid, but nowadays I prefer Glynis Oliver, who chose more interesting colors and got the image to read so strongly on the page without doing all the shadow and highlight that Rosas does.
Reading The Wild Storm made me really dig the WildC.A.T.S. characters and premise, but I think the "first issue" problem here is that they try to throw every idea they have at the wall right away. Maybe the alien invasion could have been spelled out over the space of several issues, for instance? Maybe introduce less of the team in this first issue? But for first-time writers, I don't think they were thinking this way.
WILD CATS (wild cats) WILD CATS- THEY'RE GOOD AGAINST E-VIL
WILD CATS (wild cats) WILD CATS- THEY GOT INVINCIBLE POWER
WILD CATS (wild cats) WILD CATS- YEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
Great episode ))
Jim had the perfect out of context quote for this book: "It's terrible"
HellSpont had Wolverine wings. It’s the X-men….but it’s not the X-men. wink wink
Joe Rosas started coloring Jim lee's work Uncanny X-men 272 . From there on Rosas became the regular colorist. The last issue Joe colored was Wildcats isssue 1. After, that is Joe Chiodo nothing was ever mentioned why he left after Wildcats #1.
Do WildCATS #5 vol. 1
Widcats was about the dialogue between the characters. Everybody rips off character designs. Thats nothing new.
please, please, please. Amazing High Adventure. Any of the 1st 6 issues.
The news chat Jed’s come from Frank millers the darkknight
13:09 I skimmed through the pages of #1 at the comics store when it came out. The bottom panel was where I got turned off from Image Comics. I never bought any first issues of various Image titles due to the ultra violence.
I think Wildcats was the least successful Image book. Youngbloods story may have been non existent but this had a lot of words and was very boring. I remember it being no fun. Guess I’ll see if memory is correct.
I have two of those and i lived in Venezuela, so there must be a lot of those in the world XD. I also don´t love that comic when i was a kid i didn´t liked it either so when i grew up i checked it again hoping that there was something that i didn´t understand because it was not in my native language and it turned out to be just a bad written comic book
I will be forever bitter than Chris Claremont got screwed over only for this tripe to happen.
When I was a teenager/early-20-something back in the day, I honestly thought Jim Lee (and Rob, and everyone else) were amazing artists. Looking at this issue now, it just looks like absolute nonsense to me (that Zealot pin-up, for instance). Funny how tastes change over time.
