I gotta agree with gketter on the fact that Dark Age felt too long. I wouldn't say that the arc was bad, but not certainly on the overall level of the series.
COMICS! |OT| August 2014. Infinite universes, or just fifty-two? Thanos.

Oh don't do this. Please. I still go back and look at the listing for the Premium Harley way too much.
Oh and the guardians sans Drax are 500 ish

Yeah the only guys doing this format right is Image.
True that. If DC released all the volumes of a previously released series at the same time, I'd buy them all immediately. As it is, I have to wait for all of them to come out to buy them all. I can't just buy the first volume of something like Scalped and then read the first 10ish issues and then wait another 3-6 months to read the next 10 issues.
I mean, I know you floppy-buying people can handle those kinds of waits, but I'm a tradewaiter. If I stop reading a series for more than a few days I just end up forgetting what happened last.

Yes it's worth reading. It's loosely based on a story BKV read regarding zoo lions in Iraq that get out during the us/Iraq conflict.

Muse by Terry Dodson. But pretty much just for the art. The story is pretty lolololol.
Cool. Thanks!

I'm eyeing up some Danger Girl trades.

Isn't there a shit-ton of Danger Girl stuff, though? I would find it daunting to try and cherry pick good stuff.

Yeah I have no clue what to get.

Just read Justice League United and it was the best one yet and bought it another arc. It wasn't perfect. Lots of holes to fill but what Lemire did was give most of the characters their group personality and I liked it.
The original is awesome. J Scott Campbell at his best. Awesome art and cheeseball blockbuster action/adventure storytelling.

Yeah I remember reading the first series as a kid. It was actually one of the first comics I ever read. I somehow came across Danger Girl, and uh, some battle nun Magdalene or something and I don't know
Sounds like someone is gonna read some Legion.
I'd have disowned you if you dropped it.
I'm joking.
Not really.
I enjoyed it too. Although, I'm not sold on Supergirl being on the team. Mainly because I don't like new52 Supergirl (seriously, why she gotta be such an ass to Stargirl?) I do wish the first arc had been stronger, but I felt the same about Lemire's Green Arrow, and we all know how that turned out.

Somebody call Cheska, she's the only one baller enough to go through with it.

I think this one may possibly be beyond even her means. Or she's got it all invested in statue pre-orders. Probably the latter.

yeah sure let me just ebay off a few Marvel digital codes first and then we'll be good
Hahaha. Yeah, I don't really have much interest in those classic, first print copies. Pretty insane that anyone would spend that much on a few pieces of paper.

It was where my friend started getting credited by name instead of just ghost-coloring or getting lumped under a staff credit.

Don't know if posted, but John Romita Sr is doing a variant Superman cover
I like the face and the boots, nu52 suit still looks bad to me but spilled milk. Just cool that JRSR did Superman

I wish they would get Pulido off She-Hulk, his art is so distracting. Just get Kevin Wada, the cover art guy, to do the art instead.

Dunno DC's thought process, but Superman having clothing that doesn't dissolve when he does his feats of strength would be pretty important. I agree that it could look better.

Ah, feels good to have Pulido back. She-Hulk #7 is fucking great comics.
I rather think that they changed it for Man of Steel because people claimed it looked silly and wanted the comic outfit to keep it in the line.

Fuck it, I'll pick up Fatale on Comixology... That's a great deal. Wanted the trades but I really want to read it ASAP.

Thanks brah, but I have conversed with him before a few months ago and he didn't seem like a serious competitor. Look for something BIG to happen in the next week or so though.
Agreed. Pulido's art is wonderful. Bright, colourful, charming, I love it. I even changed my avatar to reflect how glad I was to have Pulido return to the book. One of my top-tier books at the moment.
Beautiful stuff.
My goodness I'd do bad things to see him draw even one issue. His covers are incredible.
Edit : those CRAZZZZZZZY eyes

Pulido's style isn't abstract--it's more cartoon-y, if anything. If you want to see some abstract, but damn good, art, check out Marco Rudy.
And as for the lack of action hurting Pulido, I couldn't disagree more, man. If it's a scene with characters interacting, then Pulido usually throws in some fun characterized actions (like Matt's one-armed handstand that wetflame posted, or Patsy's futzing around with the Captain America toy in #7). There's so much personality coming through on the art side that, combined with Soule's clearly passionate and great writing, I wouldn't want anybody else on the book. Oh, aside from Ron Wimberly.
Seriously, this book is probably the most underrated book at the moment.
