Yeah. I think I will read it.
Its no turn off, I am just always a little bit eh when concepts like these are written in a superhero book.
I'll just say this. It is not the SHIELD everyone is familiar with.
Berserk
Yeah, but Da Vinci fighting Galactus.
Its a stupid complain from me, but this is just a little bit far fetched for me.
Okay, I'll add to what I said. The description is way off base.

Comics being far-fetched. It's the norm isn't it?

IST's 50% off section seems to get smaller every week,
They're still the leaders for discounts though.
And in this case awesome.
Yeah, I know what you mean, but superhuman beeings around long long time before the 1930s isnt my thing. I accept it in alternate universes like Marvel 1602, but this is way off.
But anyway. PsychBat says that the description is garbage, ao it wont be that bad.

Huh, Doctor Strange - "The Oath" is now in trade form.

You're Marvel?
Why do you keep delaying Hawkguy?

Huh? Its been avaiable as a trade as for ever.
Interesting is, that from all Strange Minis, they are reprinting this. Would it fit for a movie adaption?

Oh, I must have been thinking The Doctor is Out.
Ditto. My favorite Hickman book at Marvel. I think it's the best thing he's done at Marvel period. His Avengers/New Avengers run being a close second.
I mean it's great, but I would still put his Secret Warriors and Fantastic Four over it.
I wouldn't put Secret Warriors above SHIELD, maybe his FF seeing as how it's more fleshed out than SHIELD was but not his Secret Warriors.

Jock's selling this on Ebay. It's had three bids in about a minute. Already at £102. Looks great.

Okay guys, I'm trying to plan out my next few orders from IST. My current plan is to bounce the 2% along for the next two weeks, as there's something coming out that I want in the next two updates, and I kind of want more comics now.
So my net haul plan is:
Miller Daredevil 1-3
Bendis Daredevil Ultimate Collection 1
Waid Fantastic Four 2-4
Loki Agent of ASGARD 2
Sunstone 1-2
Don Rosa Duck Library 1 and 2 set
and then the rest of the Batman Beyond/Justice League Beyond I need to be caught up there.
And then the date reliant ones are the Dial H hardcover next week and the next volume of MTMTE the week after that.
My current thoughts are to go with Miller Daredevil 1, Waid FF 2, Sunstone, and then maybe the next Beyond thing I need as those are the ones I'd benefit most from getting a feel for before diving all in (though I'm fairly certain I'm going to dive all in).
Quick question, though: Is the Don Rosa a good choice to give this Duck stuff a try? Seemed the best deal price wise, though I know Carl Barks is supposed to be amazing as well. Thoughts?
Also, vol. #7 of Robots in Disguise (rebranded to just Transformers with this volume IIRC) seems to have disappeared from IST. I've tried a ton of different searching methods, but I just can't find it. It disappeared into the void. And I KNOW I saw it pop up on IST when it came out... Any help?

Wait, what's this 2% you're talking about?

Secret Warriors is a really good spy-action thriller based in a world full of super heroes. It's well written and all that, but spy stuff is not something that usually catches my interest. I read some books and watch movies under the spy category but after watching that movie or reading a book of that category I ultimately just think that it was either boring or entertaining or smart. Usually the former and barely the latter two. Hickman stood out with adding a new mythos behind the rivalry between SHIELD and HYDRA and other organizations and that was shocking. But Fury as a character is so stoic and angry that it's hard to relate to him on any level. That when the times that Hickman writes a scene meant to convey emotion in that book, it almost always falls flat due to Fury imo. But I also think his team wasn't fleshed out enough and maybe there was more to them outside the lives under Fury's eye.

It's like Apple. Everyone says "Next year is when the bubble will burst" but it just keeps going up and up and up
I expect now that Avengers 2 will be beating Avatar.
Civil War will be out grossing Avengers 1. Cap and Iron Man will sell the movie to tons of people.
And Infinity War will rip a hole in the time-space continuum.
I think Star Wars IX is gonna do that lol
I can't wait

"The box office is strong in my company. Marvel have it, Walt Disney have it, Pixar have it. You have that power too."
Ahh, forgot about that. I usually never make a second order so soon after.
Don Rosa's Duck comics are great. If you're at all interested, I don't think there's any reason not to pick it up. To add, since Rosa is expanding on what Barks did, he'll provide context and background when necessary. It's not some crazy situation where you'll feel lost or need to read up on Wikipedia as if you were diving into Marvel/DC.
Looks like they'll be getting around to reprinting the especially famous Life & Times of Scrooge McDuck arc in the 4th volume (and 5th, it seems) in the fall.

Bunch of Avengers vol1's on Comixology for $4.99.
Hawkguy and Thor GoT among them.
This should go in Zombine's thread too, huh

I say it's time for a crossover.
