so was "New Format" just their way of saying "not newsstand" twice? Or just "no comic code"?

true, but because of the age of the characters it seems like the creators have a bit more reverence for the property than Marvel has really ever had outside of a few creator-centric exceptions.

Just looked up the artist for the first part because there were some really great pages in there and well....I think I need to track down Bondage Gallery and Bustline Combat....that definitely looks like his best work.

this seems pretty similar to marvel's "The Gargoyle" except this is incoherent

>>90814487
A little context helps. You should look into reading more of DeMatteis's Dr. Fate.

>>90813524
What else magic stuff has he done? I mostly remember him on JLI and Spider-man and his new 52 phantom stranger.

He appeared in The Books of Magic which also featured Dream, I think that's as close as it gets.

>>90814969
someone should storytime that epic!
most underrated Vertigo series by far

>>90815059
We need a Hypercrisis Thread, I just made a new discovery! I was just reading Amethyst: Princess of Gemworld and in it it is revealed that Gemworld was created after the magical creatures fled Earth in the past and made a deal with demons to be allowed to make their land in this new realm (Hell), this is the same explanation given for the formation of The Land of Fairie in The Books of Magic series. Additionally, I had just read Action Comics #886, in which it's revealed that almost all Supernatural/Metaphysical planes of existence exist within or are connected to a magical realm called Sorcerer's World. Here's where it gets interesting, Both Gemworld and Fairie eventually free themselves from their contract with Hell, it's at this point that they must be given asylum by Dream to stay within The Dreaming. This not only solves the issue of these separate realms being said to exist within the Dreaming in the Multiversity map, but it also fits with Sorcerer's World encompassing all these dimensions because Hell and Nightmare are right next to each other on the map. Which also explains the connection between the 5D and The Dreaming.

>>90815244
I would love that, Amethyst is such an underrated and great series but I've only read it in black and white

>>90815269
Same here. Also, in Legion of Super-Heroes #292, one of the Masters of Sorcerer's world looks a lot like Granch from Amethyst, he could have ascended to some kind of godhood after he died. Plus the villain of that story is Mordru, this all fits when you think about both of these characters connection to Gemworld, and its connection to Sorcercer's world.

>>90813283

Bump for reading

>Amethyst
DC swords and sorcery comics are highly underrated.

>Hypercrisis Thread
I'm almost ready to either do a heavily annotated Grant Morrison storytime or some kind of shitty video. I've been reading Jung and Campbell and lots of other archetype/metastory-inclined thinkers. (all of a sudden all of that fish/Pisces stuff in Nameless makes a lot more sense)

>>90819347
Bump for this guy.

God, Fate gets so much less love than he deserves, even on /co/.

I think the Andrew Bennett storyline is brilliant, it makes me almost prefer Linda&Eric to Kent.

Then again, it's hard to find many of the old Kent stories.
