Hey guys - I've FINALLY gone all digital. I have a few issues of stuff that I'm possibly going to unload for cheap. Pictures available on request.

Chew volumes 1-5
The Surrogates Owner's Manual Hardcover
Saga #2
Secret #1
Whispers #2
Wormwood Gentleman Corpse: Birds, Bees, Blood & Beer
BRPD Hell on Earth: The Long Death #2 and #3
House of Secrets Facade #1 and #2
Mega Man #1-13 with sketch variant 1st issue

I know the issue numbers are all over the place, but my shop didn't have the others, so I picked them up out of order. Now that I'm fully digital, I don't need any of these anymore. I'm willing to sell these on the cheap, so let me know if there's any interest. As for pricing, we'll figure something out (shipping is the only thing, but I don't see it being too tough).
 
Part of me's glad I've only really gotten into comics this year so I've been pretty much all-digital all along.

Although I do have some Batman TPB's and Infinite Crisis I need to pawn off...
 
They take up space. :( Not to mention, reading on my iPad is SO amazing. I love having boat loads of comics at my command!

ipad 3 refurbished for $399 after tax, worth it? That or kindle fire 8.9'' HD presuming comixology has those "hd comics" on it, or stick with my ics touchpad....

paper for life! Absolutes! Omnibus! NEVER GIVE IN!

I have 2 Absolutes myself (Watchmen & Hush) as well as bunch of TPB's (Lots of Alternate Universe Batman books, Powers, Astonishing X-Men & all of Crimson) and some floppies that I had when I was a kid.

For the most part, I have gone digital but for things like Hawkeye & A-Babies vs. X-Babies that don't come with digital codes, I buy both digitally (for making screenshots) & floppies as I also like reading them on paper.

Refurb iPad is a deal. Go with that as HD comics in Comixology are awesome. My favorite thing to do is take entire pages, screenshot them and then use as a background. I do it with my iphone as well when something catches my eye.

For Example:

I personally prefer having both book+digital. Digital as a 'backup', and books because that's my personal preference.
Speaking of which I just order Daredevil Vol. 1 by Mark Waid, I should get it within 2 weeks X3 Also ordered some Sonic and Megaman TPBs.
Archie has just started collecting Ian Flynn's run if anyone's interested:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/1936975165/?tag=neogaf0e-20
Sadly chances are we'll need to wait a long time for the 1st 2 issues of Ian's run to be collected, a shame too as they featured my fav. character in the series, Bean, and
set Scourge on the road to being a badass Evil Sonic
.


Also a question about The Boys' last arc
remind me why Butcher's going around killing everyone?
 
Someone tell me about this slott spoiler on twitter I keep hearing about. I can't find any site willing to actually say what the spoiler said and the original post was deleted.

I use an iPad 2 and have been reading comics in some form or another on it since I got it at release. I was reading comics on my iPad 1 as well. I don't know how it compares to the Kindle Fire, but at that price, especially if that's something you're going to use it for, is amazing. I also use a comic reader for non-licensed comics that I read, and a slew of comic apps (like the Archie app for Mega Man <3).

The iPad 3 has the retina screen, so if the Comixology comics are indeed HD, it's a fantastic way to read bunches of comics on the go.

That's what i do with my touchpad to some degree, though i don't take screen caps of a page, i just use the cover art from monthly solicitations and preview pages. They make for great backgrounds, but it would be great to use any page and not just preview ones.
 
Finished reading Astonishing Spider-man and Wolverine and I loved it. I kinda miss self-contained stories like that. It was fun all around. Loved the art, too.

Read Deadpool vs. the Marvel Universe and that was so damn bad. I was expecting something decent, but ugh. So horrible.

Oooh! I need to do that. I just forgot how to take screenshots with iOS. :lol

Gotcha. I don't have my ipad with me but last month with Hawkeye #2, I took a screen of the entire last page while just had the cover as my lock screen. It's fun to do it that way as I loved reading that page. On my phone, it's particular panels that I find fun (as I previously posted).

Oooh! I need to do that. I just forgot how to take screenshots with iOS. :lol

Also, I'm not sure how you feel about android, but Google is supposedly going to announce a 10 inch tablet on the 29th with a better screen than the iPad. So I would wait and see that too.

Great price for it, especially with that screen. And iOS Comixology is actually built to take advantage of a tablet.

it all rides on whether or not Comixology is supporting "hd" higher resolution comics on the other devices, so far there's no word, it's too early and they aren't out yet ( kindle fire 8.9'' hd for example, i emailed them asking and they said they are always looking into new devices etc etc etc). Since i already have an android/ics touchpad i guess i'd be in favor of an apple one to have the other side of the coin, but it's not a huge factor.

Why either or? I'll be getting oversized hardcovers for the books I'm currently redeeming codes for and throwing the floppies in boxes for the curb.

yar i do the same thing except the curb thing XP.
 
The best thing about AvX:Consequences is this ridiculous helmet Scott have to use. And this time I'm not pretending I wish him harm, I'm saying that it was actually a very good touch. It is something designed to humiliate him and he's quickly turning it into a symbol.
 
Jason gets his revenge. Although I think Dick would be the one to do it. Especially if Bruce was in danger and there was no other way to save him but to kill the Joker.

That would be a really interesting thing to see the fall out of. Bruce would understand why but still be disappointed and I could definitely see why Dick would do it after all the shit that happened to him with his family, the two seem to be fairly close just going by Snyder's Batman comic and I wonder what it would do to their relationship.
 
Comics-GAF, I got Batman: Arkham City (best game ever) and Batman: Year One movie and now I really want to get back into Batman. I used to read the pre-relaunch Batman and Robin, Red Robin and Batman Inc. but gave up with them after a few months.

I'm definitely getting Batman off Comixology. What's the consensus on Nightwing, though?

I recently got the Batman: The Black Mirror hardcover. It's the greatest Dick Grayson Batman Story before Bruce came back. It's in Detective Comics.

Also why doesn't ComicGAF go community?
