Yay for jumping to conclusions without all of the facts! WHOOOOOOOOOOO!

Naaaaaaaaaaah.

Furthermore: fuck Rich for giving him a soapboax to stand on and cry about how mean the woman he fucking threw on the ground and tried to fucking choke was. And unless he's going way the fuck away from it, fuck Rat Queens. Them's the breaks.

Also: since this is PAX GODDAMN AMERICANA DAY I'm not gonna check the thread out, catch y'all on the flippy-floppy.
 
When does that Agents of Shield comic by Mark Waid come out?

December I think. They have different artists every time, kinda one-shot stories. #3 actually sounds pretty cool, its got Alan Davis on artwork.

S.H.I.E.L.D. #3

VARIANT Cover by ALAN DAVIS

I noticed in the Marvel solicits that they are coming out with another Captain America Brubaker omnibus. So what's the best way to collect his run? Is it all in omnibus' now? I only have the Captain America: Winter Soldier hardcover that came out right before the movie.

Can't be any worse than the first season of the show, I guess I'm in.

Yes, with the upcoming Omnibus, everything is collected in Omnibus form.

Comicbook Resources says that Captain America Lives Again and The Winter Soldier are going out of Print soon, and they are most the time right. Better hurry up.

My floppy of Pax Americana just arrived at the office. Can't wait to read it at lunch. I usually go all digital but I've been getting the Multiversity floppies. Got some strange looks when The Just arrived, people thought I was reading Closer or Heat or something.

Damn, gotta go to the comic shop to get Pax Americana. Crossing my finger in hope they still have a copy of The Just.

Lazarus and Mind MGMT are both books I've wanted to check out, but the lack of conversation about them hasn't compelled me to buy them.

Mind MGMT is one of my favourite books, but I'm aboard the nice hardcover train so it's hard to find other people to discuss it with.

Never despair. Not even in the face of cancellation.

I know. But then again I just remembered that Superior Foes is also ending, Fables only has 4 issues left and Hawkeye is (eventually) ending too. All I need is for them to cancel Ms Marvel and I'll spend the next year crying in a corner somewhere.

finished run aint the same as cancellation though.

I love it when books end. Not prematurely, but when you give a title a nice send off after a ton of issues and all ideas go explored, it's just time to close the book on that run and enjoy it cover to cover. I thought Daredevil was getting long in the tooth anyways. Now I can ask this question:

Who would win in a fight? Daredevil or Sonic The Hedgehog?

Do the smart thing for maximum money, Marvel. Two "Omnibus" collections for Daredevil. One for New York (Bestdevil) one for Cali (Worstdevil).

Pax Americana is gonna take WEEKS to fully unpack. There's just so much. SO MUCH. Moz, Quitely and Fairbarn putting on a goddamn clinic. It is so much comic. WOW. WOW.
 
Far as I can recall, the main story Morrison wrote had certain events occur in another book that tie in to it. My meory of said books is hazy atm I'm afraid.

Thanks. Will put on my To-Read list.


What about Geoff Johns Hawkman run? I haven't ready any Hawkman before.

I have a couple questions about Pax Americana that a reread didn't help.

SPOILERS REAL SPOILERS UNDER THE BARS

Who was the guy with the metal arms? Looked like Peacemaker, maybe killing her to cover up loose ends, assuming Atom would be able to save her too later? The arms show up in the museum when Nightshade is talking to her dad, but I didn't see them anywhere else
and
Who was the clean-up guy who smokes cigars and has a robot hand? Nobody else has a robot hand. The Comedian guy.

those are major spoilers and the first one I almost hit bold on instead of spoiler which would've been a higher-than-freeza-tier mistake

Peacemaker killed Nora using the metal arms to strengthen his blow. "Two-faced man. Lethal and symbolic" as the Question notes.

and on first read, I think The Comedian kinda guy is just Senator/President Harley's right hand man, the clean-up man, who takes out the scientists when they drop The Atom out of the comic. But I could easily be wrong, lol. Shit is gonna need some heavy annotations, forward and backwards

shit bro...I don't think I can read any more comics today. Uzumari said it best, a 40 page mic drop of formal comic excellence from the best creative team in the business. I'm done, man.

I'm done.
