Cartoonist Kayfabetober, 9 October 2023. Outlaw! Rather than a rendition of an existing b&w outlaw comic I made my own sexy, violent weirdo in the spirit of the Aircel, Caliber and Dark Horse b&w comics from the mid to late 80's.

Comic Stuff #1

Black Diamond #1 (AC Comics, 1983)

Tiana Mathews is a high fashioned supermodel. Beneath the glitter, she’s an agent of InfoCom Three, a spy agency determined to defeat the evil crime cartel Quansa. Her mission this time around is to fly to New York to break up Quansa’s female Valkyrie unit led by Darkfire. This was a very fun issue with loads of exciting spy action. The actress Sybil Danning was supposed to play Black Diamond in a movie but the production was never started. AC Comics is one of my favorite independent comic groups.

My Rating: 8

The Adventurers #2 (Aircel, no date anywhere)

A group of … errrr… adventurers… are traveling through a dungeon looking for treasure. The art is okay but the story is kinda pedestrian.

My Rating: 3

Walt Disney’s Mickey Mouse #171 (Western Publishing, 1977)

Mickey and Goofy enter the Old-Timer’s Aircraft Race and have to battle Pete’s Monstrous Air Serpent. This was a fun and exciting story followed by a couple shorter Mickey tails…errr… tales. Good stuff!

My Rating: 7

I have enough comics to keep me busy for the whole year! Comics from the early 60s to current.

BW Media Spotlight's Saturday Night Showcase> Men In Black: The Series

I used this for a Christmas Showcase and a My Favorite Intros, but let’s go back to the beginning. Well…the beginning of the series. Men In Black was a 1990s comic published by Aircel Comics. I would love to read it because I hear the movie took a lot of liberties, to the point that the movie would be propaganda in the comic universe. (MIB are actually not the good guys, or so I’ve heard.) It was…

[comic review] men in black (1997)

the original three men in black comics were first published by aircel comics, who were bought by malibu comics. malibu published book ii before themselves being swallowed by industry behemoth marvel comics a few years later. marvel didn’t do anything with the men in black ip until it became a major summer blockbuster, at which point they published four one shots to capitalize on the success of the movie. the first of these one shots was actually just a reprint of the men in black #1, which they released under the issue’s original story title as “men in black: initiation.”

perhaps feeling a need to close the book on the previous continuity, or else as part of some misguided attempt to tie the comics continuity in with the movie, marvel next released men in black: far cry. this one shot was a loose continuation of the continuity established in the men in black and the men in black book ii, acting as a sort of bookend on the series along with the rereleased first issue. i don’t really have anything to say about it that i didn’t already cover in my review of those two books, except to say that marketing this as a prequel to the movies is just very silly. the comics and movies are just drastically different beasts, and trying to imply that tommy lee jones’ character has anything in common with the asshole in the comics, let alone is actually the same person, is just a bridge too far for me. nor do i especially appreciate the idea that the mib is actually the sinister “shooting first means you don’t have to ask questions later” organization depicted in the original comics and this continuation.

marvel’s next offering was men in black: the movie, which was as its title implies just a very straightforward adaptation of the movie. to be fully transparent i mostly just skimmed this one to get the general idea, but it follows the movie pretty closely aside from the dialogue and action being pared down to better fit a comic single.

lastly was men in black: retribution, explicitly marketed as a comic book sequel to the movie. like the actual film sequel that would come out five years later, a major plot point was the reversal of k’s neuralization. retribution is pretty easily the best mib comic i’ve read. though, that’s coming from someone who hates the rest of the comics and loves the movie, so take that for what it’s worth. i’d still only give it a b or maybe even a c, and i wouldn’t really recommend it (even for fans of the movie), but out of all of them it was the least of a chore to read.

Check out this listing I just added to my Poshmark closet: The Power Aircel Comics Issue 1991 Vintage Book.

I would love to see an adaptation of Men in Black that followed this angle from the comics.
