Tom King and Mitch Gerard's Mister Miracle and Kyler Baker's Plastic Man are two of the most lauded superhero comics of the last couple of decades, and I've been waiting a long time to read them. But I've also secretly wondered if I would enjoy them or if they would count among praised works that just didn't resonate with me.
In this video I chat about what I'd heard about these, what my hopes and fears were, and what I ended up thinking of them, having gotten to finally delve into two deluxe hardcovers from DC Comics.
Join me for a meandering discussion on critical reputation and 'hype' and what I thought of these stories, complete with a look at these handsome editions.
