Nope, regular. It's not like I had much choice though.

Grant Morrison and Frazer Irving's Annihilator is dropping today, so y'all should check it out, because Irving is really an incredible artist.

Has anyone read the Justice League Future's End yet? Does it list which members of the Legion are present? I'm curious if it's the Legion Lost.
And found the answer. From the Future. so not the Legion Lost.

How awesome are we talking? Because I won't pay $3.99 for just anything.
Haven't read all of them, but Swamp Thing was amazing, Green Arrow was great, Detective was great, Greyson was ok.
Have more on the stack to dive into.
Will say that some of those look pretty bad.

Oh shit, get Soule on the phone. She-Hulk needs a Guardians of the Galaxy arc to boost sales, yo, and who doesn't want to read about the Outer Space Judiciary System?

Oh I mean the idea..I was hoping I don't have to buy the futures end stuff in my pulls. I think I only get batgirl, Harley, Grayson, and supergirl now. So no books this month for me. Maybe
I want to catch up on swamp thing though

You should pick up the Future's End Grayson. It's a great fucking comic. The story is really fucking smart, and it's really an issue that you reread right after you finish reading it the first time. The art is wonky, but it does its job.

She's been a Space Judge before, it's not that far off
She hung out with Gamora and Adam Warlock before they were cool!
Space Law is a real thing too! Granted it's for mining rights and territory claims and not actual litigation, but who needs to get lost in the details?

Tim, are you a certified space lawyer? Because if so, I have some questions about some space shit I want to run by you.

Come on guys there is not such thing as space court so why would there be space lawyers? You get arrested by a Green Lantern your ass is going in a Science Cell.
^ You guys are hilarious.
Nooo! That means there wasn't a Doom Patrol omnibus in that IST order!
I'm really excited to hear impressions of this. Unless something goes horribly wrong with this series, I'm definitely picking up the trade.
Edit: Did Morrison say in any interviews why he decided to publish it with Legendary? Seems like a really odd choice. I can't imagine a bigger publisher wouldn't want it.

Looks like a pretty schway team. Would like to see an ongoing.
She went from hipster to a hot pants wearing roid freak in 5 years, amazing. Even for whats only going to last a comic minute they could have put a little effort into the design.
I'm kind of scared about how Secret Six is going to turn out.
Shhhhh....

It's interesting to note a few things about the JLU/Legion image:
Members who had died during the events of the New 52 Legion book are alive: Specifically, Sunboy and Starboy. Also, the outfits would suggest this belongs to the original, mainline and thus Geoff Johns Legion revival era team.
God damnit Tim.

Yo, Annihilator was really good. First one at the shop as usual and they only had one copy on the shelf so good thing. Told them to add it to my pull. Can't wait to discuss it with you guys.
Edit - really good article on it. Don't read until you read the book.

I've finally gotten around to starting volume 2 of Elephantmen.
You know, regardless of all the hate it gets because of its very infrequent scenes of some creepy sexualization of the human/animal hybrids (which I'll be the first to admit, the comic really should've done without that... It's just tacky and over the top), it's a really fun, fast, and interesting comic. I'm really enjoying reading it.
I especially like the format it uses where there are two or three separate stories per issue, with different artists for each story. (I should note, the stories aren't typical short stories though, they are all parts of continuous plots.) It really keeps the comic going at a quick pace and helps to keep you interested by mixing it up.
Next time it goes super cheap on Comixology, I'd suggest you guys pick up at least the first volume, because it's a good time.
Nice! Would you mind describing a bit what it's like without spoiling it?

There is definitely a place for one and done (or two parter) stories. In the transition to writing for the trades that seems to have been oft times forgotten. On the other hand we don't always want one and done. It's also nice to have continuation and growth.

jesus that issue of deadpool got unexpectedly heavy. The art was hilarious, as is usual with the flashback issues, but similarly to the heroes for hire flashback, this one has some pretty big story revelations and quite a few good character moments for wade.
Duggan is continuing to show that he's one of the few writers to actually get the character. Can't wait to see how some of this stuff pays off down the line.
Deadpool's words upon seeing his daughter for the first time are "She's too beautiful..."

HahahahahaNO. If you're going to try and lay down laws for space, one needs to actually be able to traverse space. And I mean really get around, not kindasortaMAYBE (after months/years of planning) get to something that's like, ten cosmic feet away for your dumb fucking planet. Silly humans.

How is that? It's one of the books I've had my eye on forever but never got around to.

Really interested in the Book. I really dont like Deadpool and think that hes annoying, and this serious tone doesnt match for me with the picture I have from Deadpool.
But I think will never read it, since I dont think that I would spend 7 on a book with a character I dont like.

Hmmm, let's see. A washed up writer is tasked with a screen play of a sci-fi story. As the story of the writer trying to get his story done, the actual plot of his story runs in parallel. Add in Grant Morrison 4th and 5th demension stuff, metaphors and nice visuals and you have an awesome start to a book.

Can we take a moment to talk about how great Bruce Timms art is?
OMG Messi, I just had a great idea.... Batman Black & White Poison Ivy by Bruce Timm statue. Make it happen DC.
Technically animal-human-hybrid/human sex relationships. It's... weird.
But like I said, that's really such a small part of the comic it really ought to be ignored completely (rather than focusing on it, like the people who were hating on it who hadn't even read it liked to do the last time it came up in discussion).
The last two issues I read just now were such fun, enjoyable, and unique comics and I really recommend it.
So far, volume 2 is twice as good as volume 1, and I enjoyed volume 1 enough to order volume 2, so you do the math.
Awesome! Thanks!
Timms art was used for Harleys solo one no? Now just give us Ivy.
Well at least it will sell now
