You can order the first TPB from here.
The art is absolutely stunning. Some of the most creative stuff I've seen in comics.

well Messi posts all the fuckin' time, but this never happen until Slayven posted, right? Seems pretty obvious to me who the culprit is.
I think we're safe for now

Messi was 1/10th of the last thread, it's not him that's for sure
Read the first issue in Stray Bullets vol 1 the other night and that was pretty good. I'll try to read some more today
You know how you are like the Legion of Superheroes? Tried, forced, and yet you keep going even though all your fans are gone.

Bro, bro brobrobro BRO. Don't do this. Your verbal drone strikes are going to cause collateral damage that you can't afford.

GrandHarrier will still be here in a hundred years when the Legion is a vague memory of Paul Levitz and Lighting Boy.
and you still won't be shit
Messi, you better pray Slayven doesn't join us, or your reign of "most posts in a single thread for some reason" will come to an end

You should probably just get over your awkward awkwardness and read it. The creators are from the South and telling a Southern-ass story, and it's incredible. Every issue is damn impactful and it's all setting up to snowball like Scalped did. I'd say get to issue 4 before you even consider dropping it.
Yo did you read Deathlok? Shit was amazing.
Laurel Gand and Jeka Wynzorr are the only legionaries that matter.

It seems to be pretty controversial on account of Bendis writing it.

It's basically Claremont lite. It has some high points, and is pretty much not the worst thing Bendis is fucking up right now.

Ya'll love voting so much, so now its time to vote for the Top 100 Comic Writers/Artists of All-Time again.
CBR did this four years ago, here's 2010's top 125 Writers and Artists lists

Nah, to be honest I haven't read a single Edmonson book that I've enjoyed. I think the dude is bland as fuck, in general, but I'll check Deathlok and see what's going on in there.

That's ok I guess. It's like how I don't have any interest in reading more Blacksad because even though the art is gorgeous, I've seen deeper detective noir stories in a Calvin and Hobbes "Tracer Bullet" strip.

That Real World exposure.
Nice lists. Everyone except for Lapham, Claremont, and Moore would be on my top 10 writers as well (and that's just because I haven't read any Lapham or Claremont and have only read Watchmen by Moore).
Also, high five for including Miller and Martin on your top 10 artists list.
Just before I refreshed the ComicsGAF page and saw your post, I was thinking about how I need to catch up on Private Eye. I think I might hold off until it's finished though since it's sort of close to wrapping up. I loved the first five issues though. Especially Martin's art.
Oh nice, thanks!
This totally makes up for the Nightly News gaffe on your part.
No problem

Do that, the whole 10 issue series is gonna read well together. As it is, it takes about 2 months for each 28+ widescreen pages issue to come out, but I think its the best thing BKV has ever done, and its no small part because of Marcos Martin's fantastic work. I could have put a million people in that #10 slot, but I went with Marcos. I honestly believe he's one of the best sequential artist ever.
There really is something special about him.
His work on Daredevil in particular blew me away.

I'd be interested in a top 10 colorists list. This year I've been hyper aware of incredible colorists like Jordie Bellaire, Rico Renzi, FCO, etc.

Moebius is the worldwide GOAT. Everything else can be up for debate.
He is, but he has a couple Marvel things that he drew that I consider questionable quality wise.
Edit: let me clarify, those Marvel pics he drew are flawless, but a couple do not appeal to me.

I guess it just goes to different tastes, but I thought the ship stuff was the best part of Black Flag.
Is Transformers #35 a pick up of an old series? I've only been following More Than Meets the Eye (which is fantastic). I didn't think there was a non-subtitled Transformers book coming out.

The book now known as The Transformers used to be called Transformers: Robots in Disguise, but that has now changed as the sequel to the Prime cartoon is using that title. I don't see the need for the change as they're different markets, but that's the reason. Both books are crossing over for Days of Deception as well.

On to a new month. 
So I finally read Harley Quinn PeeGee..
I may get banned.... but it just doesn't do much for me.
I enjoyed it,, book looks good.. I don't dislike it. Just doesn't do much for me.
Sorry Messi lol.
Also I finally did it,, finally dropped Amazing Spider-Man. Never been crazy about spider-man,, the only thing that got me ready amazing spider-man was because I really like Superior Spidey and just continued onto Amazing.
