Devil Dinosaur & Moon Girl.... I read the original Kirby stuff. What happend to Moon Boy? Is it the same Dino?

 

Same Dino, he gets adopted as Moon-Girl's partner after Moon-Boy is killed. She eventually builds a machine that lets them travel back in time to save Moon-Boy and she leaves them together again. 

After a few issues, Dino comes back to 616 to rejoin her and they've been partners again since.

Oh, man. This must be the dementia kicking in. I've already mentioned that I don't mind critical thinking... as long as the "thinking" part isn't excluded, like it happens in this forum.

I can mention and I have mentioned the things I don't like about current Marvel. I can complain about Jason Aaron's Avengers, I can complain about Christopher Cantwell's Iron Man (imagine how I must feel that my all-time favorite character is in the hands of such inept writer), I can complain about Donny Cates' Venom and how much I dread his upcoming Hulk after Al Ewing's beautifully-crafted instant classic run. Heck, I could even nitpick about books I enjoy moderately like Nick Spencer's Amazing Spider-Man, Kelly Thompson's Captain Marvel or Dan Slott's Fantastic Four.

In other online communities I even actively diss some of these books. But you know what's the difference between me and you? That I just named all of those writers and series. You can't. Because you have no idea of what you're talking about. All you do is yap based on hearsay, speculation and breadcrumbs of information.

I would like to bring up something you said. You called all of these announcements crap.

Personally, I can tell you why I think She-Hulk will be fantastic. Because she's back to her regular self after Jason Aaron bastardized her by making her closer to Bruce Banner in both temper and physique, and because the book is being written by Rainbow Rowell. A writer who just finished a fantastic 38-issue run on Runaways, where she showed a deep care for both characters and continuity. She also did a one-page feature starring She-Hulk in Marvel Comics #1000 that was wonderful.

Now... what can you say to back up calling it crap? What has actually formed your opinion? Nothing. That's what I'm getting to any time I poke fun of you old timers. Not that you're criticizing Marvel, but that you're doing so ignorantly.

To better illustrate my point. I will go a different route and explain why I think Avengers Forever will be crap. Because it's written by Jason Aaron, a creator so infamous that other writers poke fun at him in their own books. He's a guy so obsessed with leaving a mark that his books are characterized by drastic and nonsensical retcons or status quo changes. His books are full of purple prose they become a drag to read. He writes the Avengers like caricatures of themselves, and one of the worst offenders is his Tony Stark. This Avengers Forever book will star (an alternate version of) Tony Stark, so I don't trust he will do the character justice.

That's why I can tell you this book will be crap. But what can you say to back up calling it crap?

While I can see that this is apparently directed in the general direction of gigantor, perhaps you should refrain from generalizing all us “old timers”. While I have no insight into the latest reads of gigantor (nor I’m guessing do you), I do know that you have no insight into my reading habits and therefore your claim is what seems to be ignorant. So let’s not try and paint with such a broad brush friend.

To #NotAllMen what I said and clear things up: I was alluding to the kind of "old timer" that I described, the ones that seclude themselves in the comics of their youth and have a knack for talking about newer material from a place of ignorance, often negatively. If you feel like you shouldn't be alluded to because you're not that kind of person, then don't worry because my post wasn't alluding to you.

wow you respond with a negative feminist hashtag. Nice.  I see i may have been wrong, maybe you aren't ignorant of others maybe you just don't have what I would consider common manners.  Please continue the attack, we will all be astonished Im sure from your wisdom.

I don't see why are you feeling attacked when I'm doing the opposite of attacking you. The #NotAllMen was just a tongue-in-cheek comparison because I'm feeling the situation reads a bit like "#NotAllOldTimers."

All I did was clarify what I meant and expressed that if you don't think what I said applies to you, then it doesn't.
