Batman really likes Twitch chat.
It also includes Everyday Magic which IIRC is OGN length on its' own.

It's 17 issues (but only about about 12 of them are good).
Oh and Elsa and Dinis lovely Christmas story including Zatanna
Fucking hell.

Worst case we can ask the tumblr account if it's possible they might upgrade them in the future. Think they did that for one of the Batgirl books after people asked when the reprints happened.
Everyday Magic and the 11 or so issues Dini wrote are all great, but not so much for the Matt Sturges and Adam Beechen issues. Honestly my favorite story from that whole run is a backup from issue 8 or 9 with a teenage Zee who just got braces, which apparently was by Beechen, hilarious.

If you want one long story, start at Volume 5 and carry on until Mass Hysteria. The earlier volumes are mostly more episodic stuff, they are referenced but it's not hard to follow or anything.
I loved The Ghostbusters Get Real as a Crisis-style story, and the Deviations (What If? IDW basically, which in this case is "What If The Ghostbusters Never Crossed the Streams?") is a fun read for a buck.

I'm not sure how they can say that's an exclusive when that image is the last page of the first issue of The Visitor...
No clue. Doesn't make any sense.
Everyday Magic wasn't really much longer than your average annual. It was 40-something pages long.
It's 17 issues and and OGN apparently

Haha I think you scooped them by a good few days man.
I really hope it's pointing towards Allie over Roberson as the new BPRD writer. I thoroughly enjoyed Abe Sapien as a series and while Roberson has a love for the lore, it feels like Allie is closer in sensibilities to Arcudi, and I really hope the strength of the characters remains at the forefront of the book. He's the only one credited in that ad without a book and he did mention awhile back he was working on something mignolaverse related.

Final lenticular cover of The Button crossover got released:
That issue in the background? I think it's The Flash #1.

Get in to see GET OUT, it's amazing. Sucks there's no Latinos anywhere.
Either or
Either or
It being Alie makes total sense, like you said, he'd be a great fit.
That it is.

Couldn't resist anymore. Ellis's newsletter and his Wild Storm workbook pushed me over.

Ugh. I'm a filthy floppy-puller for the second time. At least I'll get a 20% discount starting from #2.

Ellis is so good at making me excited for things in his newsletter.
If you're gonna buy single issues, at least you picked a good one.
I bet Jay is the original prisoner from way back in Johns Superman run

Maybe.
Feels like it was someone who was meant to have had a closer connection to Clark initially.
Will think more on it later. Sleep now~
Don't forget Superman was in the pre Crisis JSA.

Read through Descender volume 2 this evening. Is anyone keeping up with the book? I enjoyed volume 1 but it was only really towards the end of the book, issues 5 and 6,where some plot revelations started to really pick up the pace. Vol 2 really cements the characters though, and it all comes together. The book really hits the ground running in fact, and the planet hopping nature of the story and the various groups of characters reminded me of Saga a bit. Really good, I'll definitely be checking out volume 3.
Oh, and funnily enough the way the plot moves to various planets did actually provide some more fantastical visuals that suited Nguyen a whole lot, after that comment I made on his art earlier.

How was this reckoned? Was he post Crisis just not part of the JSA or how did they change it?
Well the OGN is only 48 pages long. So it's basically 18 issues worth of content (Zatanna 1-16 and Everyday Magic). There are many DC trades of similar length for $30 or less.
Also Elsa's DC holiday special and DCs Infinite special. $2 an issue isn't bad I suppose.
Miles and Gwen make a surprisingly good pair. I feel like this crossover is good for both books, though I wasn't reading Spider-Gwen prior.
I haven't read any of her other books for comparison but Elektra had a decent start and I like her new costume. I can't really think of anything bad to say about the book, but it didn't really do anything super amazing either.
Uncanny Avengers continues to be a really good book.
The newest issue of Thunderbolts was a good start to this story and now I'm excited to see where the Masters of Evil arc goes.

Man, have any of you guys read Supergirl by Peter David and Gary Frank?
It's fantastic so far, and Frank's artwork was amazing even back in 1996.
I'll buy it at some point. It's just that, unfortunately, since the price is what it is, there will be other cheaper things I want that I'll have to get before I get that.

Spider's a big fan lol, he's been praising it forever. I read a few issues and liked it quite a bit. One of those series I'd like to read more of when I get the chance.

I read a lot of it but then stopped when Gary dropped off art duties. It just wasn't the same. I'll power through it one boring weekend.
Ah, that's a shame Gary went off of it before the run ended.
Edit: WOW, I didn't know he went off right after this trade volume. :'( :'( :'(
Post Crisis he just wasn't part of it. The pre Crisis JSA was from Earth 2, so when the world's merged the duplicate characters were done away with.

It will be $20 on IST. You are from the USA tight?
Yeah. What I mean is that I have a huge wishlist on IST of books I am wanting. I am often choosing the least expensive first because it's the most economic for my budget.
The only thing I'd be buying the Zatanna trade for is the #1-16, since I already have the other stuff. There are cheaper books I want to get first.

Partner ended up falling asleep early this evening so I sat and read Low volume 3 too. What a savage series haha. Literally every issue seems to end in a core character being fatally injured and left in an improbable to survive situation - and the thing is, he's built the series as such, you really believe that might be it for them every time.
Some of the thematic focus goes around in circles a little too much for me sometimes, but I do find it quite interesting at the same time. Is it an exploration of how important hope is for us to make things good around us, or is it an exploration of how irrelevant hope is to the situations that will come to us anyway. Remender surely will have tried every permutation by the end of the series haha.
As I say though, it is pretty compelling. I kind of forget Low when I think of favourite series and immediately assume Deadly Class is my favourite Remender book but it is damn good. It's always an exciting read anyway.

Elektra seems like a downgrade from the last series so tradewaiting.
UA I skipped only because I'm saving money this week.
