tootsie roll out
ehhh??
look, i can take G.I. Joe and Transformers team ups. i can handle DC/Marvel crossovers. but this - ?
who really, really loved Punisher/Archie? anyone??
what's next? Care Bears/Justice League? Thundercats/Wolverine? World War Hulk: He-Man?
good lord.
at least the art is a step up (if a little bit Rob Liefeld-y) than the usual Transformers series being put out there on a regular basis; to wit:
this sucks so bad i'm not even putting in credits, or else fans might realize it does suck and burn publisher IDW down. wait, that might not be a bad idea ...
ok, the panel above is from Transformers: Target and is drawn by Geoff Senior. where's Pat Lee when you need him? on the other hand, forget i asked ...

coming out of the dark
The Darkness/Wolverine
Frank Tieri/Tyler Kirkham
Top Cow/Marvel
its already the 21st century, and they're still doing intercompany crossovers? who in Rob Liefeld's name thought about this?
seriously, The Darkness/Wolverine one-shot seems to be out of place in this day and age, although the era it belonged probably didn't do the much for the appeal of such endeavors. too much crossing over, not enough food for thought. Punisher/Archie, anyone?
Frank Tieri (not the mobster), hard-hitting writer of Wolverine, comes up with a barely passable plot to get these two characters in some shared universe without compromising their own respective worlds. to set up, everyone knows Wolverine (or do they?), but The Darkness is a strange character, a gangster resurrected by demons and eventually wields control over such powerful demonic forces. his mailing address is "Mr. T. Darkness, Brooklyn, NY 11201". just like Wolverine, has a fairly convoluted history and storyline (although ol' canucklehead has got the head start on him on "confusing").
the current wielder of the Darkness, one Jackie Estacado, had a grandfather, a Spanish mercenary/assassin named Roberto. back in WWII France, Roberto is hired by the Nazis to off Logan for ... gee, i don't know, for vandalizing Hitler posters? ... for helping the Allies. needless to say, Roberto, despite also having control of the Darkness (what, it's a generational thing? like retardation?), ends up chopped meat.
Logan was a sought-after free agent in the butcher market
needless to say, the demons that make up the Darkness never forgot, and in the present day, tries to coerce Jackie to avenge his grampa Robert, when he runs into Logan in a bar by chance (we all know Logan is as old as Jesus Christ, and his healing factor never lets him down). so everyone who bought this book thought they were in for some big-ass slashing, cutting throwdown. right? right???
nah. Jackie figures he controls the Darkness, not the other way around. so he raises a toast to Wolverine, and teams up with him to beef up the meat market (aaaawwwwww).
Tyler Kirkham wants to be an Alex Ross though he's not there yet. there's a general air of stiffness (stiffness? meat? what the hell-!) in his layouts, but some shots are gorgeous.
so if Tieri thinks the fanboys will go happy nuts over this ... Logan has some advice for him:
