Interesante experimento con la cuarta pared, pero creo que con 8 numeros habría quedado bien。

If you're looking for a read that breaks the fourth wall as much as Grant Morrison's Animal Man, and possibly more, this does so especially in this volume's final chapter。 (full disclosure read as digital floppies If you're looking for a read that breaks the fourth wall as much as Grant Morrison's Animal Man, and possibly more, this does so especially in this volume's final chapter。 (full disclosure read as digital floppies 。。。more

The elevator pitch for Donny Cates and Geoff Shaw’s Crossover would be “Under the Dome meets Ready Player One, but with comic book characters”。 Sure, most of the characters were from Image, which publishes this title, but the two creators also make good use of other publishers’ creations, whilst telling a bombastic adventure story that takes the comic book world and overlaps with our world, meshing the two realities。 To really appreciate the comic, you ought to have some comics history, as well The elevator pitch for Donny Cates and Geoff Shaw’s Crossover would be “Under the Dome meets Ready Player One, but with comic book characters”。 Sure, most of the characters were from Image, which publishes this title, but the two creators also make good use of other publishers’ creations, whilst telling a bombastic adventure story that takes the comic book world and overlaps with our world, meshing the two realities。 To really appreciate the comic, you ought to have some comics history, as well as how superhero comics work, particularly in relation to their crossover events。 Based on the opening issues of the second volume, Crossover goes through a change of pace。。。Please click here for my full review。 。。。more

By this point, you know if you're going to enjoy Crossover。 It's definitely not the book that we thought it was going to be from the first issue, but it's morphed into this meta-commentary on the power of stories and the roles of writers and artists in the creation of comics。Is it a little pretentious? Sure it is。 But it's supposed to be, I think。 And it's a hell of a lot of fun at the same time。 Comic book characters kicking the shit out of each other while their creators yell at each other in By this point, you know if you're going to enjoy Crossover。 It's definitely not the book that we thought it was going to be from the first issue, but it's morphed into this meta-commentary on the power of stories and the roles of writers and artists in the creation of comics。Is it a little pretentious? Sure it is。 But it's supposed to be, I think。 And it's a hell of a lot of fun at the same time。 Comic book characters kicking the shit out of each other while their creators yell at each other in the background is always going to be funny, and the fact that Cates has managed to rope in people like Robert Kirkman and Brian Bendis into his insanity is a testament to how much they're all invested in this insane idea。Also, the Zdarsky penned issue interlude issue in which a serial killer has been targetting other comic creators is just so out-there, it circles back around to fantastic。 I can't recommend this enough, but I can totally understand why it's not going to be for everyone。 。。。more

There are things in here I loved (he NAILED the Powers bits), but there was so much that was so meta and so “out there” that I’m not sure how I feel about it overall。 But those Powers bits, along with the ID of the killer and his notifications, were *chef’s kiss*

Luke Costin

I think this might be my favourite ongoing comic right now。

Becca

This is getting a little too far up its own ass, but I’m still interested to know what’s next。

John Funderburg

Not as strong as volume one, but there's fun to be had。 The meta nature gets a bit old by the end。 Not as strong as volume one, but there's fun to be had。 The meta nature gets a bit old by the end。 。。。more

Crossover is so much in line with my own relationship with the comic book medium, intertextual narratives and continuity, it's as if Donny Cates found a way to secretly pick my brain apart just to find the right template to blow my mind away as that kids on the cover。 I thought metacommentary in comic books was a completely exhausted concept at this point, but Cates managed to revitalize it in such a punk way, that his contemporaries are probably cursing themselves not think of this approach fir Crossover is so much in line with my own relationship with the comic book medium, intertextual narratives and continuity, it's as if Donny Cates found a way to secretly pick my brain apart just to find the right template to blow my mind away as that kids on the cover。 I thought metacommentary in comic books was a completely exhausted concept at this point, but Cates managed to revitalize it in such a punk way, that his contemporaries are probably cursing themselves not think of this approach first。 。。。more
