CCW 2.273: Joss Whedon's Sugar Shock

The King Makers(tm) at CCW take a look a Joss Whedon and Fabio Moon's 'Sugar Shock' one-shot. Sure, it was originally made available online for free but it is worth buying, bagging and boarding in comic book form? Also, can a comic about music not be pretentious? How many segments can Jose go without punching Elliott in the face? (Hint: Not too many more) These are very important questions indeed.

Just picked up Sugar Shock and absolutely loved it.

I personally can't wait for Whedon's next project in comics.

I still need to buy his X-Men run in TPB.

I'd like to see him do Wonder Woman, but I would like to see him do something original too like Sugar Shock.

Also would Dollhouse work as a comic?

Whedon insists there will never be a Dollhouse comic. My guess is he thinks it won't work as one.

I enjoyed the book, but I'm glad it's a one shot. What happened to the days where a comic could stand on it's own, and not be a chapter of a trade to be? I really enjoyed that essay about the idea of the single issue comic almost as much as Sugarshock itself. Kinda sad you guys didn't mention that.

We have always talk, like in our last series of segments, about the fact there should be more single story comics so I really don't know what your perceived problem is.

Reminds me how much I loved the NextWave Agents of H.A.T.E.  Damn that was a funny book!

After the great story with Sierra, I'm floored that Dollhouse has been canceled. It wouldn't surprise me if we never see Whedon on tv again.

Mark Millar fucked up reed big time in Civil war, wrote him totally out of character. DR FF and this 3 issue arc was completely about rehabilitating Reeds character from Millar's taint.

Millar couldn't have wrote a final 2 pages like in FF 572

I've given up on Heinberg, I know the guy is busy with tv stuff, but that ass has kept us from a ongoing Young Avengers four years now.
