    Default Swipe File: X-Men Legacy, Suicide Squad And Avengers West Coast

    From X-Men Legacy out last week... and from Suicide Squad out the week before.. makes for an entertaining mirror image on the comic shelf.





    Of course, all must bow own to the master.



    In Swipe File we present two or more images that resemble each other to some degree. They may be homages, parodies, ironic appropriations, jokes, coincidences or works of the lightbox. We trust you, the reader, to make that judgment yourself. If you are unable to do so, please return your eyes to their maker before any further damage is done. The Swipe File doesn?t judge, it?s interested more in the process of creation, how work influences other work, how new work comes from old, and sometimes how the same ideas emerge simultaneously, as if their time has just come. The Swipe File was named after the advertising industry habit where writers and artist collect images and lines they admire to inspire them in their work. It was swiped from the Comic Journal who originally ran this column, as well as the now defunct Swipe Of The Week website.

    Considering the timelapse, I can't assume this is a swipe... but it would be absolutely fantastic if the artists planned it just for kicks.
    My first novel, Sanity's Flaw, is now available for all Kindle platforms, and free for Amazon prime members.

    Support the comic book indy scene.

    Question about the mainstreamed comic books: why I am still buying the singles when the trades are well inexpensive? Why?
    I am doing the DC and Vertigo singles... and the new titles of 2011/12 are already listed on Amazon at real lower prices in trade format!!!
    Am I stupid?
