I love it ! You're talented !

[@DanielAtDanohsComics]

Nice wrap-up video! I'm sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy Wonder Woman by Brian Azzarello and Cliff Chiangs artwork in that one. I need to pick up Paper Gilrs and Clean Room soon :) Happy reading!

[@TheFrogQueen]

Finally getting to sit down and watch this !! I did enjoy part 2 of paper girls more than the first volume! Also really interested in checking out Clean Room. Haven't yet!

[@christiancabarrocas1638]

You're iOS developer?! Wow what a coincidence..I'm also a comic reader and iOS developer from Barcelona. Also a fan of you of course! Thanks for all your videos

[@schitzocookie]

Haha cool! ^^ thank you for watching! =)

[@MnMCOMICS]

Great video and great reviews! I always look forward to watching your videos!

[@MinKattMossy]

Nice att du gillar Paper Girls, känns som att alla jag kollar på hatar den, så jag har känt mig så ensam. Trevligt att veta att nån annan förutom jag gillar den! 👍🏽

[@schitzocookie]

Jasså? Jag har läst den till en bokcirkel och vi alla gillade den, kan dock inte minnas att jag vet vad andra på youtube har sagt :/

[@MinKattMossy]

Schitzo-Cookie jag vet knappt själv vart jag hört grejer, men jag tänkte skippa den för att jag hade hört att den var sådär men sen var jag på SF-bokhandeln och den skrek mitt namn så jag köpte den och blev förvånad över hur bra den var 🙊

[@michaelrobertson-author6439]

Nice reviews. Clean Room looks great.

I read half of Wonder Woman New52 volume 3 today! I was happy that it gave more details about the Princesses background story before it returned to the main story line adding new information. Hmm, she did not like it, than try (angel of darkness for this),... to read it with a black and silver colored light/lamp, rather than white and silver lamp.

[@sebastiannw2]

I love your channel and your videos! I'm sad you didn't like Wonder Woman, it's probably my favorite New 52 book. I acknowledge the pace of the book is too fast and maybe that hurts character development a bit, but by the end of vol. 8 I really felt connected to most of the main characters. I think what happens in Themyscira really had an impact in Diana and it comes back later in the story. The art is also a bit weird but I felt it was a perfect fit for the story and the modern look the gods have in it.

[@schitzocookie]

Yeah maybe I should give the series another go... not sure yet :/

Nice reads. The Greek mythology is present in Wonder Woman's origin but it was never explored as in The New 52 . I liked that although I understand that it might be disappointing to some readers. J.T. recommendation was precise: The Legend of Wonder Woman (Renae de Liz and Ray Dillon) is a must read Wonder Woman origin. I'd also suggest Wonder Woman: The True Amazon (Jill Thompson), a different and very creative tale about the Princess's origin. Personally, I like Superman/Wonder Woman very much, especially of Volume 1 (Power Couple). Thank you for another great video. It helps so much to select what books are worth the read.

[@schitzocookie]

Aha, ok. Cool thanks for the tips haven't heard much about them, will check them out =) *googling and reading on Goodreads right now Thanks for watching!

[@likingthecovers]

😎 Pickups Video and Covers...

[@commaboy1980]

For Wonder Woman I recommend anything written by Greg Rucka with her, especially his first run which they recently re released in trade paperback. Also Wonder Woman Earth One by Grant Morrison is excellent and both Rucka and Morrison are good for Wonder Woman beginners

[@schitzocookie]

Cool thanks for the tips! =)

[@oodyswe]

Du har i stort sett kommit ifatt med videorna nu :)! Bra gjort! Åh du tecknar? Vad kul! Jag vet att konstnärer kan vara blygsamma med det dem gör men jag skulle jättegärna se lite som du har tecknat om du skulle känna för att visa något i en video? Är säker på att fler skulle med vilja se det. Ha det fint!

[@schitzocookie]

Taack!, ja äntligen!! =) Haha jag gjorde det förut, men är några år sedan sist nu :P Får se om det blir någon video med det men har ett gammalt deviantartkonto: mopsen.deviantart.com/gallery/

[@oodyswe]

Wow! Du har verkligen talang! Jag älskar de tvistade mer ''cartoon karaktärerna''! Påminner om ''I hate Fairyland'' som du sa :)! Tack för länken! Var kul att se! Hoppas att du kommer igång med att teckna igen! Jag måste själv teckna mer känner jag ofta.

[@ItsDaniDee]

Great video. Great reads :)

This is something I hear often about Azzarello's run on WW during the n52, and I completely agree: It's an OK story about the Greek pantheon, but not a good WW story. I get the impression Azzarello doesn't like or understand WW very much and was just working on the book to get a chance to write about the Greek gods. She's almost superfluous in (what's supposed to be) her own story and he utilized almost none of her pre-existing supporting cast or villains. I can't even imagine how someone could write, say, a Batman book where none of the Robins, or Batgirls, or Alfred, or commissioner Gordon appear in over 20 issues and every villain is new. It's really weird. Plus the finale to the 'God of War' stuff feels really rushed and convoluted. Honestly, all of WW's appearances in the n52 were really disappointing to me :/ For WW, I would recommend anything by Greg Rucka, especially The Hiketeia. That's a self-contained story, so it's good if you don't know anything about the character but don't wanna read an origin story. He's currently wrapping up his second run on WW right now and I much prefer the origin story he gave her there compared to Azzarello's. George Perez's run and Gail Simone's are also really good. Wouldn't really recommend Grant Morrison's work on the character at all; it's similar to Azzarello's run in that WW and the Amazons are really cold and detached and ultra-violent for some reason. Also, eerily sexualized, lesbian straw-feminists who are really catty and think fat women are an aberration... yikes.

[@schitzocookie]

Hmm yeah that is a good point. Cool, thanks for the long post and all the tips, will look into them when I feel like giving WW another chance =). Love everything I have read by Gail Simone so yeah should try that!

[@JudgeDredd35]

Great reviews! If you weren't too sure about Wonder Woman vol 1 I'm not sure if you'll like vol 2 cause its very much the same, and its actually one long arc spread out through all six volumes basically. Another good one for you would maybe be Wonder Woman: The Hiketia, its a stand alone one but that's a pretty good story, in that one she fights Batman so that's cool! Completely agree with you on I Hate Fairyland, I didn't hate it I still liked it , but it definitely has lost a lot of its wow factor with the story and also some of the humour as well, I hope Vol 3 picks up! Cool that your a programmer! I dabbled in it in highschool, hated for years, but my senior year I grew to really enjoy it!

[@schitzocookie]

Hmm ok, yeah then I think I will skip that run :( Too bad though, the HC absolute cover is gorgeous :P Cool the Hiketia cover looks awesome! Yeah its too bad, but happens quite often I guess, too high expectations is a real danger hehe. Dabbled? What does that mean? I love programming =) really happy that I choose to become one.

[@JudgeDredd35]

Cool! I took a computer science class and learned different languages, Python was my main one and I remember as a project last year, I made a choose your adventure text based game in Python, that was a lot of fun!

[@foxtrot801]

Nice Watchmen book

[@thiagoanaice]

I recommend greg rucka's run for wonder woman, it's actually a lot better. Not the best, but the perfect insertion at the core of the character for new readers. And please stay away from Earth One by Grant Morrison, its a full destruction of the Wonder. Excellent video!

[@schitzocookie]

Cool, a few of you seem to recommend Greg rucka's run ^^ Could be fun to be more up for that new series. Ah ok, I have a few friends that seem to love the Earth One, version. Why do you hate it? Thanks!

[@Joakimcomicscenter]

Happy you didn´t buy the Absolute WW now?

[@schitzocookie]

Yeah... but it is so pretty :'(

[@sleepyreader666]

Great reviews, as ever!

[@Chandasouk]

Ah, cool. I didn't know you were a programmer.
