This Week in Panels: Week 179

Hey, everybody! We got a huge update this week, thanks in part to Peter, the newest contributor. Also helped out by Gaijin Dan, Jody, Was Taters and Space Jawa. I don’t know Peter from Adam Warlock, so that goes to show that if you want to be the newer newest contributor, there’s nothing stopping you from climbing aboard the train.

It says a lot about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic when they can make an exciting story out of the Neutrinos, my least favorite part of the old cartoon. From the looks of things, it seems that Krang is going to spend a couple years preparing to conquer Earth, forcing the Turtles to team up with the Foot Clan out of desperation.
I’m still digging the Injustice comic. Speaking of that game, they recently revealed Aquaman’s super move. It fucking rules.
AND he can do that in space!

Oh no, a week where I can’t big up KAITO’s faces because there’s no face in that Cross Manage panel!
… Ugh, still can’t stand the Dragon Ball full colour lettering. just… Wild Words, even. Use that. It’s free! Just not… Whatever font that is.
I was feeling bad about dropping Supergirl the second it turned out she could speak english magically now, but man, nothing that I’ve seen from this crossover is making me regret that choice.
God, I love Hickman’s Avengers.
So, I finally got around to digging out my copy of Dragon Ball Z #1 from ’98 so I could do a comparison. The typesetting doesn’t match, nor is it from the collected volume. Well, unless they changed the font they were using between volume 1 and volume 8, which is the one I had handy. I’m guessing “no” on that. The translation is definitely the same (Edited by Trish Ledoux! I wonder what she’s doing now?), but I have no idea where the weird font came from. It’s especially odd in that everything else in Jump uses an All-Caps style, like most American comics, as did the original English release.
@Gaijin D: Huh, well I guess I’ll have to either just keep dealing with it or hope that Viz switches to something more traditional when it inevitably gets collected. Weird.
Thanks for digging around to work that one out, man
@Maxy B: I can’t believe I didn’t think of this earlier, but I decided to check the credits section to see who had done the lettering. Turns out it’s being handled by Shueisha, as is the colorization. So, apparently it doesn’t look like any of Viz’s other lettering because it’s being done in Japan by someone they haven’t bothered crediting individually.
@Gaijin D: Well that’d explain it to some level. a fair few of Shueisha’s Japanese-language releases that have some english in have it in odd fonts, at least from my experience.
