COMICS! |OT| April 2016. I Think You're Fearless

I think all over the map is a good way to put it. I don't think it's distracting by any means, but he wasn't consistent. I think his work in Appleseed (at least what I've read of it, I never finished it because at the time volumes three and four were impossible to find), but his goofiness worked better there.
Oh right, read a little more Neal Adams Batman. The Brave and the Bold stuff was a noticeable step up from the Worlds Finest at the start, read both the Deadman and Creeper issues. Which randomly reminds me: has anything good ever been done with those characters? Would love to actually read something good with them sometime...
Had a peek at Marvels releases next week.
Marvel's releases every week are jam packed with good shit. This week is Power Fist & Iron Man which has me hyped as shit.
Carnage is the best shit that nobody reads.

It might be a little easier on you if you didn't buy all of the comics each week.

Shelley Bond is gone from Vertigo, and DC is "restructuring" it
Vertigo is a fucking absolute nightmare right now. $4 per book to give the illusion of a premium format, when all it's doing is keeping people as far away as humanly possible.
Drop the book prices to $2.99, and holy shit release some more interesting titles. Also, give me another Witching Hour.
Edit:
Also, get Ennis to write a Preacher special.

Good. Hope they can manage to get back some of that Vertigo magic.

Dark Souls #1 was a solid book. Art was nice, though the plot so far feels like it could have been any fantasy comic outside of a few name-drops and the identity of the supporting character. This seems like something of a prequel story set in the very beginnings of Dark Souls lore. In for #2 at least.

I got a Doctor's appointment next week.Had a peek at Marvels releases next week.
DDDDDD
I think Messi reads it as well.
I have the full run so far and I read 3 of them. I'm not sure how I feel about it. Love the covers though.
I struggle dropping books. Always have as you guys know. Maybe needs to cancel some of these lower selling books for me.
I gotta pay for a root canal next week.

AAAAAHHHHHHHH
Invincible... MEGATON.
They had Cory Walker on pencils, so some of the faces were a bit weird, but the story... god DAMN.

The Deadpool BRD is going to have a Liefeld commentary track?!??!!
The Young Animal line announcement seemed like a good reminder to people of just how far Vertigo has fallen over the last decade or two.

See if your dentist offers flex pay.
See, I pieced out that this was Blu-ray disc (though I've actually never seen the abbreviation before... huh), but my brain filled this in to Deadpool BPRD. Man, that would be a really odd crossover.

Read the first issue of Giant Days. Anyone reading this? I'm going to grab a few more issues soon, the first issue was so much fun.

Can you not pay in comics?
I see JC got perma banned.
She wouldn't take them. Something about comics being a mistake.
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE it. Incredible series and it only gets better. The characters are so endearing. More people should read it. It was a miniseries but now its ongoing due to it being popular. They just got nominated for an Eisner.

It really caught me by surprise how much I enjoyed that one issue, everything was just perfect, writing, art, just wow. Even though I just dropped a lot on the Image sale probably going to go ahead and grab the other 12 issues of this too.
Edit: Giant Days: Year One, worth reading as well?

Yup. Really great book.

Image is eating their lunch, in my opinion. They are giving me the same type and quality of books I used to get from Vertigo.
Yep.
I will say the artist changed a few issues back and while I don't think it is as good as the art you have seen it is stull more than enough for the book.
I really love Juan Ferreyra's final Suicide Squad cover. Shame he couldn't fit classic harley in there too.

I did. One of the best cape books that nobody read. I shilled it a lot, here. It's excellent, save for the ending. It's bad, just a bit rushed because they had to basically fuse two issues into one. Still excellent, though.

Is it....can it be!? I'm reading a new issue of Switch? I missed this book so much.

Zatanna chapter in Seven Soilders is amazing. This Sook DPS blew me away.

Man, do you know how long I've been waiting for that? I think he's going to reprint it all, though. He's gotta after this long.
Gorgeous.
I don't think HE has much say in this... lol.

Sook's art is so good in that mini

You know what I meant.
Is it on comixology? I don't know where my hard copies got off to.
Weaver didn't have shit delays on Infinity Gauntlet either, and the art there was amazing too. The only hold up is that Marvel doesn't give a shit about SHIELD!

...Is Harley squishing her pre-birth, fetal self?
I...I...Its's best not to think about these things...
YEEESSS. Finally got an actual GOOD bookshelf that won't have any bowing or anything.
It doesn't fit all of my trades and standard size HCs, but I will figure out something else to do with them. I kind of want this whole bookshelf for OHCs/omnis/LEs/etc.
YES. Loved the Zatanna arc.

It was the best SW tie-in imo.
That's a nice bookcase, but you filled it with comics.
Crap. Sorry about that. It won't happen again.
