I dunno, it feels like a good story so far.
It's main story, but mostly backstory. Not a lot of plot advancement.
It's bi-monthly, they need more than one artists to prevent delays and burnout.

good call, because Misfits? scust.I was thinking about changing my avatar to this but Remender is using it for his twitter profile. I don't want to look like I'm copying him.
I mostly dislike that he won't be seemingly appearing in Rebirth. It just reeks of DC not being able to find a way to put the rabbit back in the whole secret identity wise.
Though I could be wrong seeing as Clark Kent is mentioned in those rebirth solicits.
I have to wait for it to go back up on IST. It's still on Amazon but it's like $35 with tax.

Ninjak #14 was some high-tier comics. Great jumping-on point. You guys should check it out.
but no one will
Black Panther #1 was good but probably not 5 American dollars good nahmean (none of these books are 5 dollars good)

Yeah, I hear ya. This was a hard-hitting week for me too (and only one Valiant title lol).
I will eventually. I'm almost caught up with the valiant reading order which means I'll be almost current on most of the titles in the near future.Ninjak #14 was some high-tier comics. Great jumping-on point. You guys should check it out.

Not surprised. Remember when Babs Tarr did the best Sailor Moon fanart of all time?
He means bi-weekly. Suicide Squad is one of those books that's double shipping for Rebirth. Even Jim Lee can't do two issues in a month.

I don't know if you've gotten to read any Ninjak yet, but this has been the best issue so far, by far. I never really recommended this book to anyone looking to get into Valiant, but this is really a strong outing.
Realistically, no one can. That's why they're alternating artists on double shipped books.

I don't know where you went to school son, but that's not how it works.
Apparently the definition can mean either. But let's just say I'm right, since we can't both be right.

I agree, but honestly they're both kind of interchangeable and used any time people choose to use them. Bi-Weekly pay is a pretty common saying but its getting paid every two weeks.
Freezasaurus

Obviously, you are both pod people from the moon where they teach differently.
Could mean either in either case. That's why I say "twice-monthly" or "twice-weekly".

Not in US English. We use both terms interchangeably, even though bi-monthly is the correct term. The most precise term is fortnightly, but nobody in America uses such haughty language!
We're also close to making Donald Trump's hairpiece one of our Presidential nominees, so judge accordingly.

Eh, blame dialects maybe? Maybe its the next Soda vs Cola vs Pop.
Tragicomedy

You are correct, but language morphs into whatever a culture dictates. In America, both are used to mean twice a month.

Got another DH library edition:
Looks very interesting although I wish more of it was in color. I heard everything starting in library edition vol 2 is color, though, so that's cool.
buying these too. wasn't it you who made the thread telling us how these books were?

My Canadian friends used to drive me crazy when they'd call it pop. Now my girlfriend does it. So I just have to settle with saying it from now on.
Beautiful cover.Got another DH library edition:

It's Wednesday.
Will we get a new comic Humble Bundle or another set of books telling us how to fold paper into Yoda?

The fact that bi-weekly can mean two different things drives me nucking futs. I never use it and I hate when other people use it. I wish we could settle on a definition as a nation (it really should JUST mean every other week), but that is never going to happen. Congress would never risk pushing legislation on this important issue.

Bi-weekly can mean every two weeks, or twice a week.
Bi-monthly can also mean twice a month, or every two months

Bitch, I am America, don't try to school me.
Unfortunately they are actually interchangeable, like flammable and inflammable. But at least Freeza's wrong!
Wait, I just realized the writer of the new Suicide Squad series is the writer of the fantastic Martian Manhunter series.
Are we actually going to get a good Suicide Squad book?
No, but I remember somebody doing that. Or maybe it was a big post in one of the COMICS threads. I can't remember.

I call it soda. When I lived in Texas, a lot of folks called everything a Coke. "What type of Coke do you want?"
I sometimes tick off one of my coworkers by referring to it as "sodie pop." I don't recall where I first heard that, but it's rage inducing for some folks.

Well his first issue today was really good so ....hopefully??

Wait, he already has an issue out?!
Yeah, I've read up to the end of the second arc. It's been ridiculous fun and I've liked all aspects of it including each of the time periods we've gotten a look at. Really helps to flesh out the character. It's basically on the tier below all the Van Lente and Dysart written Valiant stuff for me but on the cusp of joining them.

We are indeed. His Harley Quinn april fool's special was actually really good too, looks like he's already building the blocks for his Squad run and those blocks are... interesting.
