ITT great comics that Yea Forums never talks about

It was a mini

My second favorite Superboy run is Joe Kelly's.

This is truly one of the most fun and engaging superhero comics. Kirby shit everywhere. 90s DC was so fucking good and underrated.

It's also a sequel to this.

It only recently got a collection and was kinda just "left over" stuff that D.C. Put out right before crisis
When Gerber died D.C. Should have done a collection of phantom zone / D.C. Comics presents/ and the two Last son of Earth stories
>Gerber pitched to write post crisis Superman
>D.C. rejected it and went with Byrne
Still mad

That James Harvey Phantom zone back up is a direct follow up to Gerber's mini series. Actually only makes sense if you know that story (kinda odd doing a follow up to a 30 year old story that was never all that popular)

and they should have collected the Dr Fate he was writing

>>Gerber pitched to write post crisis Superman

I always wondered what that would've been like. He was going to work with Miller on that one.

It's the Phantom Zone mini and the last issue of DC Presents that ties off the story. It's by the Howard the Duck team of Steve Gerber and Gene Colan, and it features every character who was ever exiled in the Phantom Zone, good and bad, versus the Justice League while Superman and Quex-Ul go on a psychedelic journey through some neighbouring dimensions. It's genuinely one of the best DC comics I've ever read and it's a bummer that we didn't get more Gerber Supes.

Would love to see a Gerber Supes complete collection with these and "A. Bizarro".

Don't know the James Harvey story, where is it?

Fables

>and they should have collected the Dr Fate he was writing
They did collect his parts of that Countdown into Mystery miniseries. Justiniano did the art though, and he's currently in prison for child porn charges.
That isn't getting printed again until he's dead.

Gerber was also supposed to write The Spectre with Colan on art after CoIE, but was too late with his scripts.
He later admitted going to visit the Howard the Duck movie set instead of meeting deadlines.
That Spectre series did come out with Moench as the writer instead, and Colan stayed around for art for the first eight issues or so.

>space dragon literally getting bonked on the noggin so hard with Sputnik that it died

Nexus
Madman
Ms Tree
Prince Valiant

I've noticed lot of writers would go "oh I have this pitch /story ideas but I don't want to Say it in case I use it later" when they'd be interviews
I get WHY they'd say it but it always annoyed me. I WANNA KNOW WHAT GERBER HAD PLANNED !!!

Was the back up in the Cave Carson comic from Young Animals
So it's never been collected

>So it's never been collected
It was the backup feature for "Bug! The Adventures of Forager," and was included in the trade.

The Kesels are the most underrated couple in the comics industry, both sweet hearts with consistently fun titles

its weird that Superboy turned out so good seeing as he was shameless edgy teen superman. His comics were pretty fun

Pretty psyched to pick up Section Zero in trade after waiting a couple decades for it.

Also, KK is one of the 5 best inkers of all time (seriously, check his blacks on John Byrne's Superman run), and a pretty good penciller too. I'm reading his Newsboy Legion backups in Superman: Time and Time Again and they look amazing.

KK saved Rob Liefeld's art in Hawk and Dove

Because even when Kesel introduced him, he wasn't edgy in a dark way.
Just a stubborn teenager way

i mean more in the creation of the character. DC was like "give us a hip poochie superman but a rad teen for cool 90s kids"
basically the premise should have been a disaster but they actually made the character work and their comics were great
(PAD did a good job with him in young justice too)

it was more like
>Superboy comics were always more fun than Superman comics
>DC editorial didn't want Clark to have fun kid adventures post-crisis
>DC creates Superboy for fun adventures without Superman continuity constraints

The Beef was interesting but not the best writing. It was a damn good concept for a comic and is never mentioned. Plus it serves as a PSA but doesn’t seem cheesy

Basically everything from Gerber's bibliography. There are people on this board who haven't read Omega the Unknown.

It did get a storytime here recently, but Rob Rodi/Esad Ribic's Loki is so god damn good and it's a shame it isn't discussed or mentioned more.
Rodi writes Loki as this sort of wounded animal, as being made cruel and defensive by the the actions of those who will always see him as a bastard child. This Loki is the type of guy whose only positive relationship is a concubine. Rodi peels away the layers of the character to make you sympathize with him, which makes the ensuing tragedy all the more painful.
Ribic's on the top of his fucking game here: All pages are penciled and colored by him, with an eye for detail in expression and environments that few working artists can match.
Seriously, I don't want to spoiler it any further, go read this shit.

I think all Thorfags are turned onto this one. Us Thorfags are definitely a minority, though.

I love every Thor writer I've read besides Fractoin/Gillen/Aaron

Yea Forums never talks about great comics unless they're being contrarian and complaining about them.

That, and they wanted to retain the rights to the name Superboy

Bump

Ellis' Stormwatch is criminally underrated, because it's in the shadow of his Authority run.
Gen13 vs. Aliens is one of the best crossovers in comics.
