![]() ![]() And Peter Gabriel, with all of the great masks and the things, never played that.” ![]() “In fact, we’ll get a guy who doesn’t have any personality and doesn’t put on masks or anything and just sings songs, and they’ll play stadiums. “Even if you’re in Genesis: ‘Oh, they can never do it without Peter Gabriel.’ Oh, sure they can,” he continues. Even if you’re the lead singer, they can actually get twice as big.” Whether you’re AC/DC or Van Halen or anybody, they can actually not only exist without you. “Anybody that’s in a band goes, ‘Oh, they can’t exist without me.’ They are sadly mistaken. Olympus with all this cool stuff happening, really enjoying ourselves, the fans are thrilled, and nobody ever holds up a sign, ‘Where’s Ace and Peter?'” he says. “The saddest thing of all is here we are, top of Mt. The subject came up during an interview regarding the 40th anniversary of the band’s Destroyer album, when Simmons bemoaned founding guitarist Ace Frehley and drummer Peter Criss’ acrimonious departures from the group within its first decade. “Why wouldn’t we use the classic makeup?” he says. Although the move has sparked some controversy among fans, singer-bassist Gene Simmons tells Rolling Stone it doesn’t bother him. ![]() For over a decade, KISS’ Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer have both worn makeup associated with the band’s founding guitarist and drummer, respectively. ![]() ![]() Id just tell them to stop reading about 20 pages short of the ending. It is a book that should be read no doubt. My question what would have that done to Amelia, if this was real life? She was already very fragile, and now this ending really was because Willow was sent out to get her. Lots of parents have those thoughts all the time. Doesn't matter whether you agree with abortion or not, she was saying she didn't want her child to suffer. I dont think think there was anything wrong with her line of thinking. Charlotte always stood her ground that there is no way knowing Willow now she wouldn't want her alive, but at 12 weeks, knowing she might suffer a great deal if she makes it past birth. By the end she really was a changed woman. And I think Charlotte had already learned her lesson. ![]() I kinda thought thats what she meant by the ending too. ![]() ![]() ![]() I also enjoy cracking open my favorite books and re-reading the passages that excite me. ![]() Writing is hard work! I try to keep notebooks with various ideas, images, lines of dialogue, and whatnot to look at to help get back into the right mindset. It is difficult to always be on and ready and creative. Writing, like any other profession, is wedged between all the other things that happen in life: family, naps, emergency room visits, weddings, late night trips to the drug store, colds, divorce, hangovers, day jobs, car problems, and everything else.

William Jensen I don't really believe in writer's block, but I definitely believe in being burned out. ![]() ![]() It’s like a precursor to every 90s comic ever. #158 is a fun enough entrypoint, Death-Stalker might not be the most Daredevil-y villain ever but I’m a big fan of the insane backstory of a time travelling cyborg using stolen AIM tech who decides the name Exterminator isn’t hardcore enough so he becomes Death-Stalker. It’s a really cool debut, you can really see Miller flourishing in his fight scenes as he leans into the physicality and anatomy of Daredevil, which becomes the focal point of his art in works like “Dark Knight Returns.” We get some fun character designs too, Black Widow has winning 80s hair and at one point we see Matt attempting to go incognito by dressing in bright red leather, it sure as fuck doesn’t work but it’s a sick outfit that leads to a great bar fight at Josie’s. But the moment Murdock dons the suit, I realised why Miller got the job. So I’d say the dynamic duo had a pretty shaky first impression on me, for one Matt’s blonde in this, which is a big no-no, and Miller’s art feels pretty standard-issue in the early scenes of #158. It’s a blast from the past that I enjoyed a fair bit, so let’s dive right into the adventures of Lanky Frank and Kinky Klaus (I’m going to call him that literally every chance I get). These four issues mark the start of Frank Miller and Klaus Jason’s time on “Daredevil” as artist and inker respectively. ![]() 1 #158-161 ‘Marked for Murder’ and other stories ![]() |
