The Marvel movies (meaning the ones made by Marvel Studios) have grown to look too consistent. They use the same FX house and the same colorist. Sometimes the colors look great. Sometimes they look too washed out. This was very apparent in Civil War. Ant-Man is a cheaper production, but I think the FX looked good during the miniature sequences most of the time. The cinematography was nothing to write home about. The FX and the cinematography of MoS are leaps ahead. BvS has some FX issues, but it's shot better than most of the Marvel movies. Yeah, no! The CGI in Zack Snyder films are probably the cheapest crap put out of film. Cartoonish, flat, fuzzy, just garbage effects. Yeah, those FX in Watchmen sucked, huh? No, they didn't. Ditto for MoS. Those are two of the best CBMs on the market.

RIP Rich Buckler. I mostly know his work from Peter Parker the Spectacular Spider-Man and Avengers, and I always enjoyed his art.

Speaking of EPIC memories, wasn't that the realm of Archie Goodwin, editor extraordinaire--The Best Editor EVER according to his peers and staff. EPIC, like so many magazine-sized publications of the 1970s and early '80s that preceeded it, was either too expensive or too sophisticated for the likes of me. Years before, I longed to read those b&w Planet of the Apes issues they had but it was all out of my range financially and intellectually, though I would scan through them during those frequent stops at my local convenience store and newsstand. Dreadstar came along later, when I was a bit older, and it was heavily promoted--Starlin's baby made the cover of MARVEL AGE--and the pose of "Vanth Dreadstar"--it's already too Star Warsy for me just thinking about it. Funny you should mention Jim Starlin, Gordo, as I have been reading his work for The Distinguished Competition lately, specifically his work on DC COMICS PRESENTS, and I've become acquainted with the villainous Mongul, Starlin's "other" Thanos.
