Finally finished the Alias HC (and this is the last i'll post about it i promise)
I finally finished the massive Alias HC today after a couple weeks of diligent effort (hell the thing's 28 issues + extras including some incredible cover art work from David Mack) and had to post one more time how much i dug this series, even though it's got next to zero of the components i typically go for in a comic (and HAS some that i don't typically read - like a female lead).
The final Purple Man arc is pretty damn fantabulous IMO, exploring a part of JJ's past she'd like to forget (and explaining a good deal about her). These few issues really wrap the series nicely and got me thinking:
Remember those conversations when we were kids (who am i kidding my brother and i were just talking about this the other day at the gym) asking "if you could have one super power which would it be?"?
Well i USED to say "invisibility" (with flight and super strength in a heavy tie for second) but now i think that Purple Man's pheromone power to get everyone you come in contact w/ to do anything you say... though nefarious in so, so many ways, would be pretty damn cool ;)
What about you guys?
