PopCultureWulf: NO READ, NO PROBLEM

'NUFF SAID!

life is full of hardships, sometimes reading is hard, and sometimes you just don't want to flip the page at all. Go to bed.

'Nuff Said, was more of a theme rather than an actual event, its goal is to tell a story with no dialog, only ART.

Its technical first appearance was in G.I. Joe #21 (March 1984)

Even though its not part of 'nuff said, it has no dialog at all, so it counts.

Then in G.I. Joe #85 (April 1989)
Same idea, but this time It had the distinction of being branded SFX,

And lastly it was parodied in Deadpool Vol 1 #42(May 2000)

It does cheat a little bit, by having 3 pages with dialog, but the first one is needed, to tell the joke, and the last 2 bring things back to normal, I'd say it sorta counts too.

and then as a kind of series in 2002. Each issue included a partial script of the issue at the end, to better inform the reader of what happened. Line consists of:

Amazing Spider-Man Vol 2 #39 (May 2002)

This type of Mary Jane story has been told too many times, but the spin on Aunt May was amazing

good idea / 10

Avengers Vol 3 #49 (February 2002)

Can't say I care to much for what happens, but it does a descent job at sucking me in, and keep reading the next volume.

not for me / for me

Black Panther Vol 3 #39 (February 2002)

This one is my favorite one, artwork delivers hard, storyboard is pretty good, but it feels like its too zoomed-in some of the time, something feels wrong when half of the character is off-screen, for no good reason.

8/10

Cable #100 (February 2002)

It cheats by having it's first chunk of pages dedicated to setting things up, but whatever.

Captain America Vol 3 #50 (February, 2002)

I don't have much to say about this one either.

Captain Marvel Vol 4 #26 (February, 2002)

Another one attempting to be emotional, kinda succeeds, kudos.

nice/spectacular

Daredevil Vol 2 #28 (February, 2002)

Didn't appeal to me much, pretty drab.

Piss off / 10

Deadpool #61 (February 2002)

In general, not a fan of the final layer of lightning they put on em at all.

pretty good 7.1/13

Defenders Vol 2 #12 (February 2002)

Another one that's only halfway silent, but the art is super good

9.9/14

Elektra Vol 2 #6 (February 2002)

underwhelming/10. Don't even feel like talking about it.

Exiles #7 (February 2002)

LIKE, WHATEVER

Fantastic Four Vol 3 #50 (February 2002)

I like it, second half has dialog, but it ends on a sweet note, so I will give it a pass.

4/4

Incredible Hulk Vol 2 #35 (February 2002)

Pretty entreating, makes me want to read the next chapter, and get into it. Good time to mention that I have, not read these runs at all aside from the 'nuff said issues.

! / !!!

Iron Man Vol 3 #49 (February 2002)

Like black panther, its got some of the better art out of all of them. I'm gonna mention this here, they needed to do this line mid 90's when the ART slapped HARD, 2002 art is just not as good.

02 / 93

New X-Men #121 (February 2002)

Another strong story driven and good plot, pretty funny how shameless it is.

1/2

Peter Parker: Spider-Man Vol 2 #38 (February 2002)

Move over black panther, Spider-man has you beat, this one has it all, silly, good action, good storyboard, entertaining story, give it a look.

9/10

Punisher Vol 6 #7 (February 2002)

It has the best panel composition by far, everything floes well, only thing bogging it down is the lacking artwork.

almost there / good

Spider-Girl #41 (February 2002)

Starting to notice, its common for these to have some emotional hook, not so much focused on pages upon pages of fighting, admittedly that would be the easier rout. I like how they tried hard and didn't go for just fighting. This one is above average for the series.
