GRRRRRRR....AfroNerd Link-Blog For 11-13-14

November 13, 2014 at 4:24pm

Howdy AfroNerd and Facebook Readers. What can I say? I making this Link-Blog thing a habit. Before I get to the links though, let me get to one particular bit of news first. Came out this Monday as a matter of fact:

http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=56995

Look, by day I work as a laborer, unloading trucks. I depend on teamwork, cooperation, and support to get my job done. Without those things, I can get nothing done efficiently in a timely fashion. I tried to be a good Marvel teammate here. I cooperated why all the supposed changes to the team and direction. I supported Trank based on my liking of Chronicle, thinking that I trusted his vision...even if the writers couldn't grasp the concept...*sigh*

F*** YOU!

This last bit of rumored news about Doom ensures that I will go into this project with serious bile and contempt. It one thing to give the Fantastic Four a little ethnic shake-up. It another to essentially give a middle finger to years upon years of FF Fans and a story that's proven to outlast any era's haters. Fantastic Four is a family of scientific adventurers/super heroes, persevering in the face of adversity and tragedy. Doctor Doom is the ruler of Latveria, super intelligent, ego-maniacal, and the team's worst enemy/greatest rival. Why is that so hard to put on film?

You change the essence of the foundation, you change the story and the characters. It becomes timeless no longer. Why is that so hard to understand FOX? SONY?  MARVEL? Yep I throwing Marvel in there for cancelling the one place we CAN get true Fantastic Four stories as this travesty happens. So you are as much to blame as FOX idiots...  SONY? Less said about your Spidey plans the better. Trouble? That's the story you looking at? Lemme guess. You want to hop on that Mark Millar bandwagon...

Again....F*** Y'ALL!

Sigh....got that out. Let's move on.....

Be careful of the pics you put up on the net for it may go out of control on you. Right Alex? Right Bill Cosby??? In this case it isn't anything that this kid did.. BUT still his family getting information violated and he receiving death threats? Not a good look internet....

-Valiant News?

http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=57027

More like a layered Valiant Take Over... I know I have been bragging about the company since its relaunch in my blogs but Harbinger, Bloodshot, Doctor Mirage, Quantum and Woody, Archer & Armstrong, and Unity have taken my money week after week....month after month

-Yeahhhh on the net, my circle of confidants been discussing this. I discussed it with the Capt.. I discussed it with Co-Workers....

-I haven't shared a David Brothers article in a minute and then I saw this come up on my Facebook feed and had to share.....

http://4thletter.net/2014/10/spawn-1-todd-mcfarlane-on-respect/

Although there are things that I hate McFarlane for, I can't hate on this. Say what you will, this was an introspective and purely honest piece from way, way back.

-Started negative, going to end with a positive...
