Absolutely hilarious from start to finish. Every joke worked, every line delivery was golden, every comment was spot-on.
I still think you need an introduction, though. Even if it's just something as basic as "Hello, I'm Linkara," your videos need something that can gradually bring the viewer into the review.
I can't wait to see the next one. Keep 'em coming!

Nice Episode, man.
The country-accent is well-done,
but the story is kind of dumb, if anything.
(No need to explain...)

Oh, I agree with you. I'm working with a friend on getting a theme song for the show.

12.06.2008 - 14:41 | asme251Aside from the intro, I loved it! Keep up the good work! I'm looking forward to more videos.

Nice vid, this.
And since you brought it up, I have to wonder why Spider-Man bargaining with Satan didn't make your list of WTF moments. It's at LEAST as WTF-ey as Bat Baby.

It didn't come QUITE out of nowhere as the WTFs we saw. While I'm of course angry that they had him do it at all, they at least handled it with a modicum of drama and tragedy (at least up until Brand New Day when Peter's macking on random women).

Awesome. Bad comic reviews (...by which I mean reviews of bad comics, not comic reviews that are bad...) was pretty much the only thing this site was missing before you came along. Keep it up!
-
12.06.2008 - 15:24 | blackraven87I watched all your videos last night, and of course this now, and I gotta say that they are all terrific! I can't call myself a comic fan really, although have read a little bit of stuff, but it doesn't really matter. Comic fans & non-comic fans alike can really enjoy the humor and everything in your reviews. :) Look forward to your future videos!

oh wow, this comic is so bad that I don't have the words to describe it. It's like the main character was a Gary Stu spiced with cliche salt and rolled in idiot sauce...a la lame potatoes. O__O (...yes, I am hungry)

Hours of Non-Stop NOTHING.
The problem is, they're made by Firestone!
The other one grew up into a Woman. We're still trying to figure that one out.
You shall not pass unless you have the wheels of fate!
There's too many good quotes to quote!! xD
LOL! You're so funny! I'm not even a comic book reader and I enjoy your reviews. Brilliant. Just Brilliant! ?

I wish I really did "Contro" the action like ad said. I'd have the wheels of fate run over that horrible speed bump, Wheeler, as he was standing there by the road narrating. Causing the truck to explode and not even all the steel plates and green vegetables in the world could save "US" this time.
I guess if he was Wheeler from Captain Planet he would think the Highwayman quite diabolical sense before he only had to deal with such things as people going back in time just to dump their garbage in the past.
Cute Linkara! Haha loved the review!
-
You do a great job. You are able to bring not as avid comic fans agree with you on bad comics
which helps, because there probably is a lot out there i don't know bout. Good writing as well
jokes worked pretty well, they weren't forced or anything. Intro is cmoing soon though right?
Great.;D8)

Funny stuff. :)
-
Glorious video! Really makes me wonder what these Marvel people were thinking
I'd be willing to take more of this to find out what happened to Highwayman!

Great stuff.
I wonder why you always seem to have that gestapo coat and hat?
-
12.06.2008 - 22:20 | Sancho12Great video man.
Definitely looking forward to more.

I'm not over One More Day And Brand New Day either. Let's just call this for the lack of a better term a steaming pile of Quesada.
Anyway, nice review of an odd comic. What'll you do for an encore? NFL Superpro? I think I have that somewhere and it ranks up there with this comic...which I am glad I never read. Still, nice review and great narration on your part!

What a lame comic.:P
Go Optimus Prime!
-
that was a horrible comic, but good ol' U.S. could probably still beat Aquaman.:P Hope you stick around Linkara, reviewing comic books is a fresh idea that add's a lot of variety to the site. Hopefully, while lampooning these lesser known comics, you can get around to reviewing more main stream comics and graphic novels.

Love it!! Very unique, a review of a bad comic book...who'da thunk.
-
12.07.2008 - 04:21 | kirtro"...just call optimus prime."
dont forget ultra magnus either.
-
12.07.2008 - 05:42 | NeonLightsI never knew you could make this many jokes at comics that even non comic readers will crack up at it :D
Keep it up, you're doing an excellent job with this! (As long as the wheels of fate continue to turn)

Hey Linkara, i know your secret. Your really Doug's brother in diguise!!!
Just kidding, you just kind of remind me of Doug's brother. Brilliant review, it's great to have someone giving a fun analysis on american comics.
