decided to open up to some newer type of mainstream comics. as i've alluded to other times, i mostly only find value in stuff from well over 20 years ago (hellboys, etc are the exception). thought captain america would be a good fit for me, as i am always fond of the character. i despise the current cult-of-personality surrounding artists & writers but figured i'd go after a body of work which apparently is pretty consistent, self-contained and well-regarded, that being ed brubaker's...
browsed online at various places to research. my rare open mind shut again pretty quickly. the various trade compilations make no sense in regards to reading order and numbering.
impenetrable...
...and i'm a guy who is otherwise familiar to things. what do new potential readers think of this? the popularity of superhero movies in the past few years should naturally translate to certain huge benefits to the comic book industry. yet publishers can't put together any coherent format for reading stories which are episodic by nature.
i'm no fan of manga, but envy that complete runs of those series seem to be put together in sensible and accessible volumes.
anyways, i'll stick to stuff like marvel masterworks reprints. these are mostly great content for stubborn old people, as well as an understandable format. comes out at a snails pace though - i'll save that for another groaning rant!
***edit addition - ordered vols 1 & 2 of what amazon calls 'Captain America by Ed Brubaker'. this numbering makes no sense to me, but oh well. i'll see what happens... also something called 'Captain America and Bucky: Old Wounds' which apparently follows directly a 'Captain America and Bucky: The Life Story of Bucky Barnes' book which i already have picked up but have not yet read. hooray.*** "
