Message: [QUOTE="Ezri_Muldoon, post: 374755, member: 29375"] The last "modern" comic I purchased in full was IDW's Power Rangers vs Godzilla (2022) [IMG width="528px" size="600x1038"]https://media.mycomicshop.com/n_iv/600/6267261.jpg[/IMG] I'm actually a big fan of the Boom! Studios Power Rangers continuity. It actually did things beyond just MMPR nostalgia. Shattered Grid from 2016 is the peak, it absolutely deserved to be used as the plot for the Battle of the Grid game. Power Rangers had a period of surprisingly robust world building and that can be utilised to craft some really interesting stories. [B]There's nothing good in the IDW Crossovers[/B]. I enjoyed its inclusion of Showa era Godzilla lore, but that's it. It's just bland digestible funko pop tier franchise sandbox. "I recognise that" shouldn't have been the high point of such a titanic cross over. Same for the Marvel & DC cross overs with Godzilla. It's all painfully status quo adhering[I] filler.[/I] I am currently re-reading Sam Keith's The Maxx: (1993-1998) [ATTACH type="full" width="531px" size="836x1280"]130449[/ATTACH] But I've hit the same problem I always hit. Where the Liquid Television animated TV series is better. Solely because it ended where the original comic run continued on for a few clearly post script issues and it hurts both the pacing and lessons the dramatic stakes of previous issues. Still, The Maxx is absolutely my favourite comic series and I could never criticise its art. I just wish Image Comics didn't drag it out past its natural conclusion. [/QUOTE]
