the what now

 

[Hellers]

So I might have bought all 14 volumes of Knights of Sidonia on Comixology. Up to volume 5 so far and really enjoying it. It's a little bit hard to follow a times but very good

So I have mentioned that I'm a big fan of artist Juan Ferrerya. I even bought one of his Suicide Squad pages a few weeks ago. I ordered his creator stuff with Paul Tobin, Colder, and started it today and I have come to the conclusion that Juan is my favorite artist out there. First just the over all style with water colors and photoshop effects is the big draw. But his colors, lighting, layouts, facial expressions, kinetic energy, characters, etc just resonate with me to make him my favorite.

Colder has been excellent so far. If you like dark, twisted, and psychological horror, check this book out.

The Mighty Avengers #27
The Unspoken was an old Inhuman king that succeeded Black Bolt's dad. Attilan was apparently super peaceful in his day and everyone loved the bastard, including the Alpha Primitives. For those who don't know, those are pretty much cavemen used as slaves because they can't be used as much else. Essentially, Black Bolt's gang charges into the throne room and fights him due to him getting rid of the "Slave Engine," (which I have no idea what the fuck that is) which is apparently a very powerful device that The Unspoken hid because it was too powerful for any one person to have. The Royal Family disputes this by saying it is the right of all the people of Attilan to have it. So they fight, The Unspoken loses and the Alpha Primitives bail him out. Fast-forward to present day, and a small group of Avengers (Quicksilver, USAgent, and one other chick who I don't care enough to remember the name) go to scout a location in China due to a spike in Terrigen readings where they find The Unspoken and a bunch of Alpha Primitives. Then China's Justice League shows up and gets straight bodied by him, thus beginning the running theme of Chinese superheroes getting bodied by random Inhuman shit.

Then USAgent is like "Fuck call all of the Avengers." There's some other storyline stuff about the actual Avengers storyline, like Jocasta being sacrificed and Scarlet Witch is actually Loki and some shit. Don't care about that. Sad part is, the whole bit with The Unspoken doesn't end here. It continues. So I'm going to read the issues that contain this arc, even though every reading order I've looked at has only listed this issue as the one I need to read. Oh well. Also one thing that bothers me: in this issue, it shows the Royal Family only one week out of Terrigenesis. So Gorgon still looks like a human and whatnot, but Karnak mentions he went through the Terrigen process. Problem is that ever since the Jenkins run, he's been known to not have ever gone through the process. The runs after this stay with that. A weird conflicting retcon that didn't stick, apparently.

This actually sounds rather interesting. Might have to read Mighty Avengers and Inhumans when I get MU next.

I watched the first two seasons of the anime on Netflix and was going to start reading where that left off, but I never got around to it. I've heard there's some difference between the anime and manga and that you should read the manga from the beginning blah blah blah I don't care I'll start where I want. Anyway, I really liked what I've seen of it, though. Is it still ongoing or did it finally end? Also, volume 15 of the manga just came out last week. Don't know if it's out in digital yet.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

I just think he isn't for me.

That's fine, a lot of his stuff is not for everyone. We all have that one writer who just doesn't click.

Man, I didn't realize pretty much nobody considers Multiversity one of Morrison's greats.

I liked Multiversity a lot, it had a bunch of really cool stories and I enjoyed the overall story. I just like other stuff more!

 

[Freezasaurus]

Man, I didn't realize pretty much nobody considers Multiversity one of Morrison's greats.

I do. But I'm also one of those people that finds a lot of Morrison's books a little too wacko. Things like Flex Mentallo and The Invisibles just don't really appeal to me very much.

The manga ended with Volume 15 actually I'm way behind but I find it enjoyable. I'm looking forward to Vertical releasing Blame again because I missed out on it when Tokyopop had the license. Hopefully they bring out Abara at some point because that is way cool.

Wow, Tokyopop. There's a name I haven't heard in a while.

 

[Lashley]

Saw Civil War earlier.

I won't spoil anything.

Haha yeah to my surprise apparently they are still a thing in some form or another.

Tokyo Ghost is pretty great.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Tokyo Ghost is pretty great.

It's a fun book. I won't say I enjoy it more than some of Remender's other work. Especially Low.

 

[Busaiku]

I dunno why I kept my Unlimited subscription for so long, I've barely been using it since I buy new stuff now.

 

[george_us]

Agreed but it's still a very fun read. I wasn't expecting it to take the turn it did. Now it's time to take a crack at Invincible.

 

[Freezasaurus]

I feel like that with Netflix. I barely ever use it. Only when a new season of something I want to watch pops up.

Spoiler culture has gone too far.

I need to read Low, I have volume 1 and maybe 2 laying about somewhere. I'd like to catch up Black Science as well. Too much to read.

Low is way better than Black Science. I can't even be fucked to catch up with Black Science.

I read Spider-Gwen yesterday and now I feel sick today. I don't think it's a coincidence.

Burn / delete / burn & delete it. It's the only way to be sure.

If you don't wear a headband within seven days you die.

 

[Brian Fellows]

Tokyo Ghost is pretty great.

Yeah it started off slow but the last 4 issues have been great. I will say I enjoy it more than Black Science but not quite as much as Deadly Class.

 

[Hagi]

Low is way better than Black Science. I can't even be fucked to catch up with Black Science.

I've only read the first volume of Black Science but I enjoyed it. I really liked Sliders as a kid. Low seems really interesting though that mech suit looks really cool.

I read Spider-Gwen yesterday and now I feel sick today. I don't think it's a coincidence.

I read all 4 issues of A-Force then got a hair cut. I don't think that's a coincidence either.

 

[TheFlow]

Low is the superior image title along with saga.

Tokyo ghost is worst than blacks science. Considering black science had a Waugh better first arc

[whatsinaname]

Looks like I didn't need to jump on the IST Valiant sale.

(Archer & Armstrong).

Amazon says v6 includes #20-#25 but the actual trade says #20-#23 + "Back to the Beginning" from #25. Not sure what's going on.

I can be happy that I have my public service job with 7-15:30 and flextime, even while its currently exhausting as hell...

 

[Zombine]

I'll clean anyone's kitchen for a price. I get paid, you have company.

 

[Messi]

I'm at work and it is 11pn with a festival going on. Won't get home till 3-4. Not reading comics though so it's not all bad.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Clean mine, but you have to pay for the fligh by yourself.

Would buy you some german bear and some Bratwurst as a additional payment.

on the flip side, I will accept payment to not show up at your house and clean your kitchen

The Detroit branch of one of the comic chains in my state is opening Monday. Planning to go and pick up some items to support the store.

Yep, I typcially switch between Greenbrain and Detroit Comics, but I'm going to check them out next week.

Second shift can definitely be isolating but it has also saved me a ton of money. Throughout my 20's all those Friday nights I spent at work would otherwise been spent at the bar getting blackout drunk and losing my cell phone/wallet.

At least I'm lucky enough (not really) to have a brother with MS. He doesn't sleep much so he is usually up when I get off work.

 

[Boogiepop]

Okay, with the Cap Falcon sale on comixology, what precisely is worth money from that? There's like 3 different series, then one with the Avengers, and then some old stuff, it seems.

Also, for the Rai sale, do I need to grab anything other than the digital "trades" to have all I need from the current universe from that sale? (Planning on going in on whatever I can for the new Valiant Universe that goes on sale thanks to Launchpad's longstanding suggestions).
