Glad to hear about the successful car reclamation!

I'm waiting on my first month's Comic Cartel subscription order, and I really, really hope it works out. I ordered a few random titles from them a couple of months ago and the storage box was ultra cool, so I'm just hoping that everything goes smoothly on a subscription basis. It'll feel good to be less reliant on a LCS that randomly jacks up release day titles from cover price due to suspected rarity.

Edit: Here are a couple of shots of their storage boxes:

That box looks really neat. I might place a single order just to have one.

Better resolution.

I'm excited. :O
 
Oh my goodness. If I lived in Portland, I would be in heaven. On October 1st, John Darnielle of my all-time favorite band, the Mountain Goats, is having a book release/book reading thing and he will be "joined in conversation" by Matt Fraction.
Talk about two worlds colliding. That would be the greatest thing ever.

Goddamn.. its just beautiful. Haha


This cape is pretty badass


:))

Those are great.

I don't have any statues and don't really plan to get any, but if that Mignola Batman B&W statue was re-released, I would buy that so fast.

Batman Black & White Statue Mike Mignola Variant - only $79.99

Boom
 
So, the "Marvel cancels two upcoming Manara variants because of Spider-Woman's ass" story isn't a story at all. But, the reaction to it sure as heck is.

For those that don't care to click: instead of just running the story, Bleeding Cool got answers from Marvel and found out the covers aren't canceled at all: Rich was informed that Manara missed the deadline because he's too busy working on his own Italian comic projects, and that they (and the artist's future works) are expected to grace future AXIS and Thor covers. Marvel will continue to work with Manara as they have for years.

Wait, Bleeding Cool did actual research on a story and didn't just run whatever click bait nonsense Rich wanted? That's the real news here.

Oh my goodness. You're the best.

Now to see if I can actually bring myself to put down the cash for this.

wow, interesting and boring at the same time. Appreciate the linking & summary.

Bizarro world. They actually brought back sanity and facts to a non-story.

They've been replaced by some alternate reality doubles and this is some next level viral marketing stunt for Multiversity.
 
Ever since Flashpoint, I've been saying that the DCU Booster Gold should have still been around, since he was stranded at Vanishing Point when the N52 change occurred. Meaning he would have been unaffected by all the time streams folding into and merging with each other.

Having read this week's Booster Gold special, I think I might actually have been right for once.

Outed another Walking Dead reader. Thank goodness.

I've had next to no time to read. Been focusing on Destiny and writing my own shit. The options were: Live vicariously through the writing of my favorite books, or get shit done. I chose the latter. I just need an artist.
 
My wife bought me book one last Christmas. Those oversized HCs are so nice. Got it signed by Moore. (of course not for free lol)
Still haven't finished book 4 yet

I really do enjoy the series. It reads so well once the entire arc is collected. I'm working on a Comic Spoiler OT.

Be the only character in Flashpoint that knows what's going on besides Barry Allen and be sent off to fight Doomsday brehs
 
I need to get an ipad, I want a Marvel Unlimited sub so bad :/
 
What In fucks name...Edge of Spider-verse #3, that Kaori is fucking stupid. Lol that page when she came to Paul McCartney's apartment was X-Men 100th bad.
 
Batman Eternal was good. Really cool seeing Harper coming to life as Bluebird.

Futures End was actually really good. Lots of backstory told from Ollies perspective. Told about the war with Apokolipse and how they followed Earth 2 refugees to our earth.

The Flash Futures End story tied into the current arc so well. It made perfect sense. I like Brett Booths art on the Flash.
