The Highs and Lows of Politics In Comic Book Movies
(An enterprising geek comments that I should have included V For Vendetta. Eh, I suppose. Does anyone even remember that movie? It was supposed to make this big statement, and then...nothing. The V masks turn up at Scientology protests, but that's about it. And Alan Moore hates it. Anyway, I discuss the terrible straight-to-video Captain America movie from the '90s in this column, the one starring J.D. Salinger's kid as the Star Spangled Avenger and Ned Beatty as his intrepid sidekick.)
Could Wanted's Mark Millar Become the Next Frank Miller?
For the record, I'm a fan of Millar, even though he shoots off his mouth a bit too much. His run on Ultimates is great, and Kick-Ass is a lot of fun so far. Marvel 1985 was a bit of a letdown, despite the fantastic art. Still, he needs to cool it with the Superman movie talk. It ain't gonna happen, Mark.
