Well this isn't the first time I have said something and within hours it was fixed. Like when I dropped Nocenti Catwoman.

I'll take another look, thanks.
She died in Hickman's run of Avengers/New Avengers
dcbs shipment is supposed to come Friday, this is the first time i've been excited for comics in awhile. Black Panther, Wonder Woman Earth One, and Walking Dead that isn't the tv show finale.
Usual dcbs highlights are statue days where months of pre-order dread are finalized with immense paint disappointment.

The cover of this month's Previews highlights Dark Horse Day with a gatefold illustration of Dark Horse characters hanging out in a comic store. Emp is almost dead center... as a statue.

HAHAHAHAHA Darkseid War Special is fantastic!
Maybe they're attempting to gauge potential interest.
BABY OMEGA SANCTION!!!

Empress and Black Panther were both fantastic.
BP just seems like a really smart comic and I really can't wait to read more. Empress' art and dialogue wowed me enough to get me to buy the next issue. Not so sure about the story yet.
Old Man Logan 1-4, though. An awesome story. The art is different and I love it. Logan, to me, seems like a wild animal going absolutely crazy in an environment he isn't used to. Seeing him fight old friends and laying into people is a sight to see.
Haven't gotten to The Fix yet.

I've been enjoying it a lot so far. I'd love to get a deluxe hardcover with the entire event. I'd be surprised if it didn't happen.
They got another one...

They said they were inspired by Miyazaki

A comic coming from Image with inspiration from Miyazaki films sounds like the perfect combination.

Yeah but hearing Fletcher talk about anime influences and looking at the final product, they tend to not hit close.

What's a Miyazaki?

The director of a lot of Studio Ghibli's films.
hahaha I knew what that was going to be before I clicked on it

A work doesnt have to look derivative of its influences. Sometimes its clear as day but other times its not. It could be that the type of story, method of storytelling, or themes are all strongly influenced by the works they reference rather than 'yeah this book is gonna look like Miyazaki's work'
How many penises are in that book? Also how bound is Diana?

*Gasp*. A legend.
Totoro, Naussica, kikis delivery service, and a ton of other great products.

The way I see it, your setting yourself up pretty high if Miyazaki is your influence.

It's in my IST order, which just shipped today. So hopefully I'll get it by the weekend or early next week.

Hehe
Yeah I was just being intentionally obtuse. As opposed to my normal unintentional obtusery.
I've heard of him. I'm just not that big into anime so I haven't actually seen any of his works. I'm sure they're as good as a true classic like Attack on Titan anyway.

Miyazaki films are in a league of their own. The only non-Miyazaki film that has made me feel anything close was Wolf Children.
I can definitely see it

Only Yesterday is great. When I saw it at an anime con in the early 90s it was a game changer of what anime could be
Also Kon's Tokyo Godfathers has some of that feel too

Never saw that one, but I'll add it to my list.

It's the rare Ghibli movie that got stuck in Japan. I guess since it wasn't Miyazaki. But good news! It's finally getting western release

Waiting for my copy, but I'm pumped to read it. Paquette did an awesome job with Bulleteer and Batman Inc so I imagine it looks great.
Tokyo Godfathers rules. Probably my favorite anime movie.
Placed an IST order.
Age of Apocalypse Omni reprint. Missed it the first time around. I hate reading oversized books like these but for AoA I will make an exception. This event was responsible for me being a Marvel fanboy for most of the 90's.
Wicked and Divine HC - blind buy but have been looking at this series for awhile and i've been enjoying these Image deluxe editions.
East of West HC - finally bit the bullet and ordered it
Secret Wars HC
Infinity TP - going with the trade because its like $14 cheaper and from what I can tell only missing a couple one shots.

I don't think so, but I've also never had falafel.
It's whatever you want it to be.
This came from the instagram, Celebs on Sandwiches. Some people here don't believe it should be there as it is a falafel.
for reference this is 2015 NBA MVP- James Harden standing on a grilled cheese sandwich and Russell Westbrook

Falafel itself isnt a sandwich, you can just have it a sandwich/wrap

If you're using sandwich as an umbrella term to take it sliced bread, wraps, baps etc then yes.
or, a sandwich is just made using sliced bread.
Semantics innit
