Man I ****ing love Kurt Busiek. His run on Superman made me realize just how much I loved Superman. Thunderbolts was a massively fun book about super villains turned heroes with plenty of moral ambiguity but without any lame edginess where the most fun character was still the most delightfully evil and manipulative ****head and I stan Moonstone until death.
But then I open issue 1 of Busiek's Avengers run and it takes me 2 days to get through cause all I can do is stare at the gorgeous art and continually reread the most perfect comic book lines ever written like-
"Foolish woman! No human can withstand Gullin, the boar-god!"
"Perhaps not, braggart! But as you are about to learn -- Moondragon is far more than human!"
I don't expect plebes to understand but Kurt Busiek is the most fun comic writer and everything he does makes me happy.
