Wonder Woman

Finally got to see this tonight. What a fantastic movie. I LOVED it. The only sad part is that it took this long for little girls to have a superhero movie to grow up with.

I'm like... really, really ambivalent about the DC universe. I loved the Dark Knight trilogy but that's it. The other movies are completely uninteresting and I don't care one whit about Justice League.

However, one thing is certain: DC is pretty serious about Wonder Woman. Diana is a goddess and we don't deserve her; this movie drives that point home loud and clear.

Re: Wonder Woman

Saw it tonight. Movie was dope. I was particularly impressed with the fight choreography, it was really clean and spectacular looking. I could have used much less slow-mo in the fight scenes, but that's DC's/Zack Snyder's influence for ya.

Characters were well written and genuinely like able. Story progressed at a nice pace and I'm glad that Wonder Woman felt like a legit goddess the entire time.

It actually frustrates me how good that film is, because it offers a glimpse into the awesome world of DC comic book films that we could have. It's not fair that DC is so bad at films, because there are so many great characters that deserve awesome movies.

I have edited the title to apply minimum-viable marketing.

Recycled Comics by CB - now in paperback!

I've been doing this project, supported by my awesome Patreon Patrons, called Recycled Comics. You may have seen me mention it. What I'm doing is taking old comic books, ones for which the copyrights have been lost or abandoned, and removing all the text, so that I can write new text for them. I've taken previously disconnected stories, and reworked them to function in a shared sci-fi universe, the same story universe that most of my sci-fi stories take place in. The third issue is wrapping up now, and you can read all of it over at the Recycled Comics site.

BUT the exciting thing I want to share today is that the first print volume is out today! It's a full-color, high-quality paperback containing the first three issues, and all the one-pagers that came in between. You can pick it up here, or on your country's Amazon site.

I will also have copies of the book (along with my other new book, Peacemaker) at EPIC next week if you are going to be there, and want to take a look! I'll be giving a reading from Peacemaker, and selling and signing books afterward as usual.
