Answers for Charles...

LAUREN

1.Best: Ghost Rider. I know there are disagreements but that was the most accurate comic based movie I have ever seen.

Worst: Catwoman

MARY

I couldn't be happier with our first question(s). I have far too much too say about the first one.

1. Best: History of Violence. I ♥ David Cronenberg. I know it wasn't exactly like the graphic novel. That doesn't make me like it any less. Plus I adore Viggo Mortensen. Otherwise I love the first Batman. I love Batman Begins. I am pretty sure I will love The Dark Knight. One of our other cute nerd girls, Nessa worked on The Dark Knight in Chicago.

I hate a lot of comic based movies. Here is a short list:Catwoman, the Joel Schumacher Batmans, Daredevil, both Punisher movies especially the one with Dolph Lundgren...I will stop now because there are far too many comics I love that have been made into terrible movies. I think that hands down the winner for the absolute WORST has to be...

Hasselhoff as Nick Fury: Agent of Shield





Or maybe that is the best. I can't decide.

NESSA

1. Best: 300 and the Crow- part 1, not the rest.

It's unanimous. Catwoman has to be the worst of all time.

LAUREN

2. I believe that zombies should stumble all discombobulated, the running thing I don't care much for.

MARY

2. I am totally with Lauren here. The walking dead don't run due to rigor mortis. Besides they are the walking dead. My fabulous partner in crime and friend Terry Pounds recently wrote a movie called The Dead Won't Die where there are both fast and slow zombie walkers with a fascinating explanation for the difference. Here is the SXSW Grindhouse Trailer:



I will post more about the movie as it progresses. I am hoping to work on it or at least be a zombie.

NESSA

2. The living dead move slowly. Zombies (or zombie-esque beings) that are not the living dead but more like rabid humans can move faster.

LAUREN

3. Yes- however I thought the Marvel Zombies vs. The Army of Darkness was enjoyable, though short lived.

MARY

3. Not really. I ♥ zombies. Zombie comics, zombie movies, zombie pub crawls...I takes me zombies where I can gets me zombies. I even often dream about zombies therefore I am not tired of the zombie comic trend. I loved The Walking Dead. Like Lauren, I adore Marvel Zombies vs. The Army of Darkness. I liked seeing Spidey and Hulk turn into zombies. In fact, I like seeing the all of the Marvel superheroes turn into zombies.

That being said, I can totally see how the zombie comic trend could be annoying to someone that didn't love zombies like I do. I predict that zombies are on their way out. If you are tired of zombies, focus on Skrulls instead. That is maddening enough, isn't it?

NESSA

3. I'm not fully on the zombie ship right now but there is a soft spot in my heart for them.


Thank you Charles for your questions! Also ya'll should check out Charles's blog and site!

I am pretty sure most of my questions will be from local Minneapolis artists until my Powers column hits the stands since Danno has been whoring my site around the internet. This is fun for him since I have been his cute nerdy friend for so long yet I don't create comics. This is his chance to share me with the world.

I am happy with the few questions I have received so far. Please send me more! I only answered one email today. I don't want blow my wad.

Thanks for reading!
