As someone who talked about the NBA game, i'm usually careful not to spoil things, but those things involve stories. So game of thrones, don't spoil the story. Comics, movies, shows, stories stories stories. Live events....i think you're on your own and should probably just not open the internet. For instance, El Narez joked about who won the Money in the Bank match and i could have stopped reading comics-gaf then, but i chose not to and Freeza, yes, our beloved Freeza, spoiled it for me when i'm the one who usually spoils wrestling when it comes to ROMAN REIGNS.Now Freeza is on a list somewhere and i move on.
nah, i like the idea of earning 'competition points' for exclusive cosmetics
the golden guns in S1 are awful though, yeah
I can't stand for golden guns. The rest is fine by me.
Well yeah, but it's all hideous crap and I'm nowhere near enough a srius busnss player to actually ever get them. In a way the stuff I'd never get being very unattractive works out nicely.
If it had been new characters I'd give a shit, but I probably won't even play ranked mode ever.
Shouldn't they go well with the with the white and gold skins? Do those not already give golden guns?

Pretty much where I'm at. They're just so boring. Is this some PC shooter standby that I'm unfamiliar with? Are Golden Guns such an expected feature that they felt they had to get them out of the way now?
Special weapons and accessories would have been way cooler.
true, some of them will go together decent enough. Mercy's will go well with my Valkyrie skin, Pharah's with my Anubis, Reinhardt's with my Stonehardt.
but on it's own (and with a lot of skins) it'll just look super gaudy
it's definitely "a thing" to have Golden Gun skins. they're really popular (for whatever reason) so putting them out early makes sense.
i'm sure we'll get really cool stuff down the road (assuming by "special weapons" you just mean weapon skins.)
Special weapons is a complete no no for me. If they do those I am out.
Skins are coming. Danny from GameSpot said he seen loads at blizzard that aren't in the game yet.

Yeah, I just meant weapon skins.
Having full-on character skins for competitive achievements would be even better, tbh.

I am, but Republic of Ireland, so yeah.
I regret not betting on someone to win the tournament outright so I'd have interest for the later rounds (I do that for tournaments that the ROI aren't in), but I'm up a good bit on accumulators so there's that. I should be able to buy a new phone with the winnings provided the last few days of pools go okay.
Woah. Enjoy.

Jay & Miles X-Plain the X-Men (formerly Rachel & Miles), it's quite good.
Comicstorian on YouTube has a ton of short videos going over arc plots.

The quest for another Exiles goes on. I'm surprised they haven't tried an Avengers Exiles-style series yet.

They just added a Discover story arc for the Clone saga as well.

Looks like they added a lot of the comics from that series in today's weekly MU update.

I know Alex Ross hasn't been on his A game recently but this Amazing Spider-Man cover is amazing:

Zdarsky leaving Jughead and Howard ending, wonder what he's doing next. Is he on anything else?
I guess we will learn with the new Marvel Now announcement. Maybe a new #1 for Howard.

That's one joke I don't really want to see repeated.
I do want Spider-Man crying about Uncle Ben in every issue though.

That sucks. Howard has been one of my favorites on MU so far.
One would hope he is going back to drawing Sex Criminals or at the very least he could start a website to talk about his writing.

Seems Vote Loki isn't an ongoing as the TP is not listed as vol 1.
Hellcat solicit mentions it being the end of their second arc. But doesn't mention cancellation. Its written as if it is going to continue which is a shock. Glad its sticking around.
Do you have the link to Fractions blog? I cant find it :/

Your wife sounds like a classy lady.
I've taken my wife to see Wicked on Broadway several years ago (I've seen it three times), but Hamilton has never been an option due to impossible to find tickets, outrageous prices, having a five year old son, and my work schedule. I was super excited when they announced the nationwide tour, but we're moving to California in a few weeks and don't have any viable options. I was also super excited when they announced they are filming it, but all the discussion on that front makes it sound like it won't be released for quite some time. It's pulling in truckloads of money, and that would probably hurt some of that momentum. Too bad.
I'll stick with listening to the soundtrack, and will read the book this summer.
That's a great cover but it's a little cruel to fans to show Spider-man saving Anna when we know she dies that issue.

He's co-writing a new creator owned book called The Recidivist. Fraction and Deconnick seem to have a ton going on. Maybe Chip's involved with more of that?

lmao i know this is the wrong quote but i love it.
also, i literally can't believe how many CWII tie ins there are in September
Not gonna lie, I forgot that book even existed. I read the first few issues before losing interest.
We've seen a bunch of touring shows, and got to see Dirty Rotten Scoundrels on Broadway when we visited NYC about 10 years ago. I really like the soundtrack for Hamilton, but I admittedly am not into it as much as she is. As a fan of musicals and a government/history teacher, it's like her favorite thing ever. We've got the book about the production at home, and it's super nice.
I hope they don't differ because I dished out for those paperback tomes lol but they didn't include the issues of Bruce's recovery apparently so it's weird when he just returns out of nowhere all good to go. If anything, the omni should include that stuff.

Are you saying there are six 400 page chunks MORE of that story>

Where in California? It's going to be in LA on the tour sometime. Individual tickets aren't up yet, but they're a part of the season tickets at the theater they're going into.
Also, last night I got two plays of the game as Zenyatta. Felt good.
Zdarsky forgot about it too.
Yeah, 6 Ben Reilly Epics.
Also, the Original Clone Saga Epic is not avaiable. So make it 7 400 page chunks.
All included stuff:

My goodness. Maybe I'll just stick to the new 6-issue clone saga. :3
And I forgot the 5-parter Gathering of Five which is the conclusion to all the stuff.
My god, it will take years when I want to read this

Northern California. LA would be quite a haul.
The paperback release definitely framed it as an Azrael story that just happened to include Bruce for parts at the beginning and end. To be honest, I prefer it that way. Azrael's descent into madness and the System is much more interesting to me than Bruce getting healed and coming back.
