I think I read about 40 issues of Invincible before deciding I actually didnt like it much and I dont enjoy much of Kirkmans writing after TWD started feeling repetitive to me
Until someone offers them money for the next Arkham game, movie ect ect. They are so full of shit.

Speaking of Kirkman, what's with the sudden Outcast push? I saw some new copies of TWD Vol.25 being packaged with the first issue of Outcast.

I interned at one of the production companies when they were shooting the pilot, the few scenes I saw dailies of looked really cool.

Sweet!
I'll be watching. I need something to watch on Cinemax now that Strike Back is over.
He's obviously nailed to the door. Poor guy.

I hear a lot of people namedropping Bone as a good comic. What's it about? It always looked like comic-strip style humor comic to me. Then again I'm just basing it on the art style more than anything, really. I get the vibe that it's something more than that however, based on the way people bring it up.
It's even funnier, because based on an earlier shot with Bats walking down the halls, the door handles are on the opposite side.

I bought the first hardcover of Invincible, read it and didn't enjoy it at all. 5/10 (only for Eve)
Hardcover had a dust jacket.
I am removing a point for that. 4/10
Yeah that is the main reason I haven't taken a copy from work yet.

It's an all-ages comic, really.
It's available in a one-volume B&W edition (with the shittiest, most transparent paper ever), individual color volumes, or a one-volume color edition that tends to run pretty expensive. I got it for about $80 from Amazon. IST wants $120.
BTW, how often do the non-Marvel companies get general sales on comixology? There's some stuff I would actually probably pick up now that I'm considering digital as an option, considering I was mildly afraid of them due to shelf space. IE stuff like the Valiant stuff in general and like maybe the mass of Judge Dread that's out there. So yeah, any chance of other company-wide sales popping up, or do I have to hope the roulette of series specific sales eventually lands on those?

The Angela finale was a complete clusterfuck. So sad. It's to be expected, I guess, this mangling of a book when it is suddenly canceled. It barely even made sense. The last couple of pages were a sweet send-off but the rest of the issue wasn't even coherent.
Got a little choked up towards the end of Batman #51, not gonna lie. It's Snyder's love letter to this run and the fans and I thought it was really quite touching without being too sentimental. Capullo's art is also really calm and quiet; he can do no wrong.
Gonna miss this team since they've probably written my favorite run of my favorite character.
If I had to personally rank their Batman arcs in this run it would go: DotF, Court of Owls, Endgame, Zero Year, Superheavy. I love them all though.

Darkseid War continues to be great. I hope Grail sticks around after this story is over.

Remember when Bush was president in the Marvel universe? Fun times.
He wasn't in this issue.
Or is that what you meant?
Seems like he's back next month though.
I'm just going to lose hearthstone games and watch the Rockets.

So over in Amazing, Dan is now ship-teasing Spider-Man and Mockingbird. I thought he was against Peter dating another super?
Yes.
This particular issue really could have used him.
I was si upset by his absence that I could not concentrate on the story.

Anybody take the plunge on Last Days of Magic yet?

I did. Seems pretty cool to me. 45 pages, Aaron bridging story.
Is it controversial somehow?
I did read the new Doc Strange and it was fantastic. Turned me around on the storyline.

Teenage me was blown away when that came out. Invincible was one of the first indies I ever read, I remember catching up after his guest appearance in Kirkman's Marvel Team-Up run (that was a solid series BTW). That moment told me it wasn't going to be like my usual comics.
I admit it's not the best slogan. I'm working on a new overlay with a friend who's still doing their graphic design degree, so better one....soon, ish?

Well I was just wondering if it was worth six bucks
No, very intriguing though. Lots of cool hints of the future on that page.

Batman 51 was a nice end cap for Snyder's run.
You americans are in for a treat.
Fucking great movie, Top 3 easily.
One can relate to both Steve and Tony, the hero battles are top tier. And fucking Spider-Man. Motherfucking Spider-Man. That moves. Fuck. So good.
And Black Panther was amazing.

All good, man. I wasn't poking fun or anything. I didn't see the boundaries get shattered, but I saw a shit ton of Thistle Tea. Well worth the trip.
Edit: IST just shipped my order. Everything is right in the world.
