"I am having trouble getting into this graphic novel. I've already read the books so I have a vision in my mind of the characters and they don't seem to match what the artist imagined them as. Granted, my imagining of Tom is utterly different from they actual description in the book. The artist is a lot closer, but I still imagine Tom like Mr. T in a suit and tie that can barely contain him. I'll keep trying." — Jan 29, 2026 09:00AM

“It strikes me that the only real reason to take apart a pocket watch, or a car engine, aside from the simple delight of disassembly, is to find out how it works. To understand it, so you can put it back together again better than before, or build a new one that goes beyond what the old one could do. We’ve been taking apart the superhero for ten years or more; it's time to put it back together and wind it up, time to take it out on the road and floor it, see what it’ll do.”
