It's hard to get hyped for all these movies.

Age of Ultron: I only liked the ending battle of the first Avengers movie, thought the plot was terrible

Batman vs Superman: Man of Steel Costner gif and Dark Knight Rises was kinda dumb.

Jurassic World: Lost World and Jurassic Park 3. Why will this be good? Raptor high fives.

Star Wars VII: The prequel trilogy :/ and it's from the guy who made the Star Trek reboot.

so yay for trailers but i'm skeptical.

Back in the slump again guys

Trailers are a honed science by now. You can make anything look great. But if you somehow can't, yikes.

 

[Boogiepop]

It builds of comic Ghostbusters. By the latest run. It was pretty good. Great paper.

Dang. Was hoping I could use it to gauge my feelings on comic Ghostbusters. But if I should go all in, then I'm ready to do so. Thanks for the answer!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but last I checked Abrams is a huge Star Wars fan. His Trek reboots may be lackluster to some, but to be fair, he didn't know anything about Star Trek. Now he is literally a massive Star Wars fan, making a Star Wars movie. I'm not a Trekkie at all, but I did enjoy the reboot and its sequel. So, I'm optimistic.

He definitly feelt like the right guy for the series on the Celebration Panel yesterday.

Official BvS teaser posted.

Batfleck looks great.

I find the 'soldiers kneeling before Kal' scene interesting.

And I wonder why the statue was built.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Finished Bendis's run on Daredevil. Not much to say that I haven't already, but it was a really, really good read. It moved at a great pace and just made me want to keep going. Total opposite of the slog that is his Guardians of the Galaxy.

 

[Cade]

The MU app, on Android at least, is a lot better now. The webapp for PC use is still hot garbage and keeps loading wrong or not loading at all.

 

[BKatastrophe]

Spider-Man and the X-Men trying to convince me that Vulcan was a thing.

I'm trying really hard to forget him, but damn it Marvel, ya making it hard.

I have Volume 2 of the Bendis DD run waiting for me. I really want to read it, but my pile is....well, large.

Movie'll probably open with a "Superman doing good works" montage. It'll have been 3 years.

Doesn't Sunstone Volume 2 come out soon at least?

Worth it brah. I haven't been this hooked on a comic in a while.

 

[BKatastrophe]

The one court case in Volume 1 was an amazing story. I loved it.

 

[Messi]

Doesn't Sunstone Volume 2 come out soon at least?

Yep 29th.

But I may have read Sunstone a FEW times already.

 

[Zombine]

Yep 29th.

I legit just bought Tron Legacy for you Messi.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Let me recommend you something. What's in your backlog

 

[Cade]

Yeah MU just keeps refusing to accept any input on occasion. Grumble, grumble. Back to tablet reading I guess but I read so much faster this way.

 

[Fintan]

Make sure you read Brubaker's run. Picks up straight after Bendis' run and is very good in its own right. Keeps a similar tone and has terrific art and writing.

 

[Messi]

I legit just bought Tron Legacy for you Messi.

I hope you enjoy it. I think Olivia was incredible in it and she has never been sexier.

Let me recommend you something. What's in your backlog

I have so much in my backlog not including current comics its not even funny.

--

I know JH Williams stuff on Batwoman looks incredible when finished but his original art pages are fucking incredible. How we went from him to what we ended up with I will never forgive DC for.

 

[Zombine]

I've already seen it, but I never owned it. Now I'm watching Orphan Black.

Oh I know. Throw out some candidates, we'll get you out of that slump

Another fantastic show.

I really want to read Waid's run but both you and Freeza said this

JHWIII's art is incredible. Shame editorial ticked him and Blackman off.

Speaking of Blackman, I know the art is supposed to be amazing, but how was the writing in Elektra?

 

[Zombine]

Another fantastic show.

Tatiana Maslany is quite leggy.

The writing in Elektra is so so. Its probably the weakest part. But the art just makes up for so much of it.

That first image is not even the full spread of Elektras murderous slaying

Tatiana Maslany is quite leggy.

She is just stunning. I adore her. If I could have another waifu.

 

[Spike Spiegel]

why would you carve brow furrows into your cowl that's weird

less dark
still boring

a) scowled so hard for so long, the material of the mask is stuck that way

OR

b) being so dark and brooding all the time is exhausting, so shaping the mask to resemble a scowl lets you relax a little but still look all scowl-y

 

[Messi]

Oh I know. Throw out some candidates, we'll get you out of that slump

Revival
Walking Dead
Demo
Blacksad
American Vampire
Chew
Deadly Class
God Hates Astronauts
Fables
Fairest
Ravine
Wicked and the Divine
Red Sonja
FBP
iZombie
Afterlife with Archie

I like this one.

 

[Owzers]

I can't beat Resident Evil Resivelations 2, finishing the first episode was a chore. I might read more comics. I got into The Star Wars on MU and i'm enjoying it through the first three issues.

Hm lots of good choices. But I'll go with recommending Chew.

Also on the unsolicited side you should read Slotts she hulk series if you haven't. Fun fun stuff

I have the first volume coming in my IST order.

Most of those trades are half read and ive just fallen behind. Chew for example I am on volume 7.

It looks like Tidal is failing to make any waves.

YOU THINK NO ONE NOTICED THIS, not on my watch young Zombine!

 

[Fintan]

I really want to read Waid's run but both you and Freeza said this

I haven't read Waid's run yet. Or what's in between Brubaker and Waid. Maybe someone can inform us if there is anything worthwhile between those two?

But in terms of Brubaker, it's a must for me.

These 3 universally acclaimed runs have me thinking, is Daredevil the most consistently well written superhero character of the 21st century?

 

[Tragicomedy]

Daredevil's billy club can fire high-potency mortar projectiles, because duh.

 

[Messi]

You know whats awesome? Brubakers Catwoman.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Even heroes have the right to dream....

 

[Poodlestrike]

Daredevil's billy club can fire high-potency mortar projectiles, because duh.

Smacking people with a stick filled to the brim with high explosives strikes me as an incredibly poor idea.

 

[Cade]

is this gonna be in season 2

 

[Fintan]

is this gonna be in season 2

12 episodes of him acquiring the mortars and then we finally see them in episode 13.

 

[Cade]

Fund it.

 

[Fintan]

I've never read any early Daredevil. Is the Stan Lee stuff good? Been reading some Lee Spider-Man. Romita's art is terrific.

Based on what everyone says, it sounds like the stuff between Brubaker and Waid is pretty bad.

And yeah, Daredevil's got a lot of well regarded runs. Really wonder who is gonna do Daredevil after Waid is gone.

 

[Tragicomedy]

I've never read any early Daredevil. Is the Stan Lee stuff good?

Does the uncanny Cat-Man poop in the woods? He is a purrfect villain.

Spoiler

I'm 10 issues in and it's terrible. But I will continue with this quest to show the most unusual parts via image posts.

 

[Messi]

This is the darkest timeline

 

[PsychBat!]

This is the darkest timeline

Not when new Star Wars trailer hype exists!

 

[Fintan]

The Daredevil TV show should have been based on 60's Daredevil. Vincent D'Onofrio as Stilt Man.

 

[Poodlestrike]

Poking around Marvel Unlimited for the first time!

...

Jesus, this site is shit.

[BuddyJoeHooker]

No new comics until next week, anybody got reviews for No Mercy, Runlovekill and Savior?I got those new series coming in and was wondering if I should pre-order the next issues.
