COMICS! |OT| September 2014. Means well, but is easily distracted and can get lost.

Also, I decided to go ahead and catch up on Transformers (in trades) the rest of the way. Though that kills off most of my entertainment budget for the rest of the year. I can still grab Smash and Pokemon (and I already preordered Hyrule Warriors), though I'm starting to question if I'll even be able to grab Bayonetta 2 now... Bleh.

this is a very serious problem
 
if we're going by the addiction factor, WWE Supercard is the game of the year, every year

also Edge of the Spider-Verse #2 was cool. It could've sustained a miniseries, or even an ongoing to be cancelled in 10 issues.

I'm picking up Smash (both 3DS and Wii U), Hyrule Warriors and Pokemon too! Probably the only non-Nintendo game I'm picking up this year is NBA 2K15.

I've been playing WWE Supercard too! No KOTR though because that one mode is a mess.

On to comics, just read Chew Vol 7: Bad Apples. I'm surprised how Chu has turned his attitude around since
his sister died
. He is not playing around.
 
Buy Bayo 2 man. My pre-order is ready!

But hey comic books:

Avengers #35

Confusing at first, but the ending made me go WHHAAAAAAAAT?

Miles Morales: The Ultimate Spider-Man #5

Just when you think you've seen it all... it gets good.
So, uh, twin robbers aren't Spider-clones, I guess. Jameson shooting Osborne in the head made me gasp. And what the hell is this "Peter Parker"? Is it really him? It can't be right?

Uncanny Avengers #25

Aw yis. Last month's issue was fairly meh, but this one is nice again. Poor Havoc :(

Indeed it is. Hoping it won't come to that (and even if it does I may be able to fudge it a little to make things work), but it wasn't even a consideration before.

It's my stupid hatred of having holes sitting in a collection what did me in! (Got volume 4 of Robots in Disguise at my local comic con, and it was just sitting there looking all wrong and out of place, taunting me, so of course I had to grab the rest of the series).

KOTR suuuuuuuuuuuuucks. Played one game, finished the qualifiers in first place, I thought that was it, and then i choked in the semi-finals and ended up with a single Rare card. Not. Worth. I haven't played it in a few weeks though, i got TOO into it and made myself stop

also fuck my curious eyes that lingered to that Chew spoiler, I gotta catch up
 
Miles Morales: The Ultimate Spider-Man #5

I bet for a Stealth Spider-Verse Tie-In. Peter Parker from a Universe similar to rhe Ultimate Universe, but he didnt die there.


You heard it first here. :P
 
You guys are getting me really excited about Alias coming out. Now I'll probably have to buy it.
Luckily I'm playing a few shows within the next couple months which will make me $100-200 each, so that will give me some extra money to guiltlessly blow on comics. And thank goodness for that, too, since there are quite a few big books I want coming out soon and with the really low hours I've been getting I'd otherwise feel super guilty about spending a bunch of money on comics.

Lol, that sounds like me with fighting games. I LOVE games like Guilty Gear and Marvel vs. Capcom.

And there's a lot of comics coming out today-- I forgot Wicked and Divine was coming out today. Gonna be a nice day.

Do you play SF3:3S? That's literally the only game (besides a little bit of Speedrunners here and there) I've played for nearly the past year. It never gets old.


I'm so excited for this.

I can't go, but look at it like this - do you really want to look back on your life and think about the time you missed this?

Aww, bummer.
But good point. Haha
Actually, I just realized that there's a friend from work who would definitely be up for going with me. That would definitely make the trip into LA more bearable.

I love 3S! It's one of my favorite Capcom fighters along with MvC2 and Darkstalkers 3.

And I thought it was kind of funny how one panel in Uncanny Avengers today was literally just Wanda's butt as she was talking to someone. Really smooth. I just want AXIS to start already.
 
Any ComicGAFers wanna roll some Destiny with Korupt and I?

You guys make me wish I picked up Destiny. Are you guys going to get AC Unity? We could be 4 ComicGAFfer assassins.

*Edit*

Ohhh that's right Bayo 2 is going to have online. I will be there day one for Bayo 2! I will always be in the Samus outfit as well.

I have it Preordered on ps4
 
Just caught up on the thread, and noticed that yesterday Comic GAF went full Pop GAF. Like the two worlds converged and became one. Strangest stuff I've seen in a Comic GAF thread, and I've seen Frank Quitely's attempt to draw a human head so that should tell you something.

----

The Valiant Humble Bundle looks pretty good for someone not familiar with their stuff.

----

Image heavy pull list for me today, as usual:
Deadly Class #7
Supreme Blue Rose #3
Trees #5
Wicked + The Divine #4

Marvel
Daredevil #8
Elektra #6

DC
LOLNO
 
Welp, just finished reading Daredevil....
Let the Purple Children RULE! But here comes the MAN WITHOUT FEAR!
Maybe you or someone could clear this up for me. I'm reading the first trade from 2011 (Waid + Riviera) and in the second chapter there's a scene where Foggy is searching for his tie and Kirstin Mcduffie comes in and hands it over to him. She says he left it last night (left it where?). Foggy says it's his lucky tie and she says with a funky face "I'll say". Does this imply they slept together?

I knew you were like a brother, brother! I need to dust off my Hugo / Makoto skills sometime.

I used to go to EVO to compete every year until ~2012.

I was kinda surprised about this, too, because she later seems
very close with Matt.

I hope my second Daredevil OHC ships soon

Wait, no no no.
Foggy was dating Kirsten's roommate. He'd been trying to get her and Matt to hook up for a while if I'm remembering correctly.
 
Wait a second. I was looking over the new release list on Comixology, and Marvel released six separate books at $4.99 today?!? When did that happen? Have I been living in an Image cave?

Nice. I was going to compete in Final Round last year but I had to cancel last minute :/ Thinking about going next year but I'm not sure if I'll be able to.
Waifu discussion is the cancer destroying GAF.

Alongside comic book movie discussion.

"Why doesn't Marvel make a Civil War movie?"

Yes! We definitely need to play. Assuming you can play through GGPO on PC, that is.
I really ought to get around to buying a PS3 for fighting games eventually.

And that's awesome that you've competed at EVO. I kinda want to go one year just to spectate.
I still haven't been to Vegas anyways, so I could kill two birds with one stone.
