Definite Batman Triumphant/Unchained influenced.
Quote from: eledoremassis02 on Fri, 18 Aug 2023, 18:37Will be interesting. Wasnt 100% on 89 so I hope this feels a little more fleshed out
Quote from: Travesty on Sat, 19 Aug 2023, 15:34I think I'll skip out entirely, unless I hear some of you say it's actually worth reading. I thought the first run was absolutely terrible.
Quote from: Slash Man on Thu, 17 Aug 2023, 23:53Can anyone think of a reason why the film shouldn't be put alongside the golden age comics continuity?
Quote from: Slash Man on Thu, 17 Aug 2023, 23:53While it's far after the fact, writers for Batman's Earth-2 adventures in the 80s considered the film canon due to referencing Daka. I forget the source, but a writer did confirm such.
Quote from: The Dark Knight on Wed, 9 Aug 2023, 09:15I've read a lot of books and I've also abandoned a lot of books. What Goosebumps has going for it is their length. They get to the point and provide readers with a quick tale and a fun experience that compels you to keep turning the page. There's a lot of variety of stories under the banner and the horror/comedy blend is what makes them great. If the books were tailored for an older target audience they wouldn't have the same charm.
Quote from: The Dark Knight on Wed, 9 Aug 2023, 09:15The Goosebumps books also wouldn't have been the success they were without the front cover art by Tim Jacobus. They're some of the most evocative and effective pieces of art to grace any collection of stories. They still hold up but kids now wouldn't understand the power of looking at them back in the day. I'd refuse to read a Goosebumps book without the original art.
Quote from: Slash Man on Tue, 8 Aug 2023, 23:54The comic adaptation is a lost art. You have the same story, but left to the creative interpretation of a new set of artists for a new medium. Oddly enough, I prefer the comic to have differences from the final film to stand on its own and reflect the production process. RoboCop and Star Wars were classics for me.
