It's good to know that Joshua Williamson not only reads his own books from time to time, he also reads other people's stuff. Like reading before writing his Flash Run and finding out they already did what would've been an emotional theme he was going to write. That's rad.

@Popcultureguy3000 9 ай бұрын

I’m just happy he’s keeping track of _some_ Marvel books. I know he’ll always pick DC over Marvel, but it’s always nice to know him doing something for the House of Ideas isn’t completely out of the question.

@Popcultureguy3000 9 ай бұрын

As long as he either reads what Steve Orlando has been doing with Miguel, or he doesn’t interfere with his yearly July weekly miniseries, I’d love that. Steve Orlando just has so much love for *THE ENTIRE 2099 IMPRINT,* that I have a hard time seeing anyone else top what he’s done for two years in a row.

@@Popcultureguy3000 wouln't the most important thing be respecting and adhering to Peter Davids vision of the character, since he created him and wrote pretty much everything not written by Orlando

@@Alex-yx5qh Orlando has been doing not only that for his three separate Spider-Man 2099 weekly series, but respecting the work all the writers for the X-Men 2099 comics have done as well! Who else but an X-Men 2099 fan would bother to bring back *Pumpkin Jack, the King of the Wildways* for his Carnage 2099 five week event miniseries?

Josh is great. I don't love all his work, but he's such a chill, nice guy in these shows, and his love for the medium is apparent. Also, Superman is the best book out right now and Josh is totally killing it.

@binglybingler2598 I'm mostly reading old stuff too, but a year ago I moved to a place where I can get monthly comics easily, so I decided to read a lot of DC titles. Dawn of DC helped, but also I'm more of a DC guy anyway. I highly recommend checking out City Boy too, it's so much fun, and it has Nightwing making a surprise appearance at some point. I'm curious about this Daredevil run you mentioned, might check that out as well.

What Josh is describing about writers who only read the one story and repeat stuff happened with Sam Alexander and it bothered me so much when I did my big Nova read a few years ago. What’s worse is that you can tell where they stopped reading Duggan’s run too.

@Popcultureguy3000 9 ай бұрын

Honestly, it’s a tragedy that Jim Zub had a better handle on Sam’s character growth in The Champions than most of the myriad of Nova writers, but because it was a team book, you only got to read it as a side plot. The powerless Sam arc was so good it almost makes me wish Zub just wrote a solo Nova series or mini about it.

I love to hear about Josh talking about his research when going into a new title. Its very obvious reading his work that the man respects and knows the lore of the characters. For fun, if he was to write Marvel, I'd love to see him work on either Peter Parker, Spidey 2099, or a Luke/Danny Heroes for Hire run

Obvious answer for a Marvel character that Josh's style of writing would be a good fit for: Amazing Spider-Man. Less obvious answer: a new Heroes for Hire series, or even just a new Iron Fist. I feel like he'd be a great fit for Danny's voice.

Some of these tv show reboots are very necessary when you look back at certain 80’s cartoons and earlier. Shame Johnny Quest was in film pre-production limbo during the early 2010’s when CN and Netflix were making those good 80’s cartoon reboots, WB animation could have made a *fantastic* long-term story driven cartoon in the vein of Mystery Incorporated and the Voltron and She-Ra reboots.

I spoke to Josh at Megacon last year, and I would love for a Williamson Inhumans book. Get someone fun for the art (maybe Tom Reilly), and I think it could go places. I know he said that the Jenkins/Lee book is the best Inhumans book (which it is), but I would love to see Josh's voice for the gang (especially Black Bolt).

To Josh’s point about new writers not reading the history, I swear 3 writers in a row sent Norrin Radd back to the 6th Cosmos with an opportunity to see or kill young Galactus. I’ll forgive Slott because at least he introduced Dawn Greenwood, and then Cates and Ewing forgot about her and had Norrin crying over Shalla Bal again (even though she came back as a villain in Slott’s run)

Hey yo, the stuff about the history of comics inspired me to dig out an old rough draft for a podcast I wrote ages ago about the history of marvel comics (and just general modern history told through a pop culture viewpoint) that I ended up scraping during a breakup with a friend ages ago. No idea if I'll ever record or release it but thanks for kicking me back down one of the most fascinating rabbit holes!

You know what, Judd Winick who wrote primarily for DC created The Exiles and set the standard for what good writers would do with the series later, so maybe Joshua Williamson would do a good job with a new version of the team! I mean, he can’t do worse than Claremont’s overwrought and overly expository New Exiles run. To clarify what I thought about Claremont’s New Exiles, liked some of what he did, but compared to the quick stories that had come before in the previous writers tenure, it just became a bit of a slog to read. And back in the first series, it’s not like they didn’t do good stories that were longer, World Tour was a blast, going to basically every official secondary imprint alternate universe and all the famous ones to the main, from House of M Earth all the way to Future Imperfect and the Heroes Reborn second Earth, but then again, they never lingered on each alternate for more than two issues, not like Claremont’s alternate reality stories that would take up four or six issues at a time.

I am still pissed that One more day ruined everything with Peter Parker and Mary jane and it drives me insane that marvel refuses to undo there mistake and bring us back the marriage with Peter parker and Mary jane and let them have there daughter Mayday parker Spider-girl alive and kicking in the mainstream marvel universe, because damn it there's so much potential with a adult Peter Parker and Mary jane being married and raising there daughter mayday parker spider-girl is a fantastic story and would finally open the door for Peter parker to move forward as a character and stop holding him back for bad stories nobody wants to read myself included at least in my opinion.
