Mooney's Spider-Gwen 2099 looks good to me. Fits right in with that series if she will appear in it. That book is great btw.

wait, who drew the cover? I dig it. I'm not into the Gwen-ing of all the characters but it actually makes sense for 2099 'cause you could actually do something with it.

Couldn't get into the 2099 book though. Just can't look at that guy's art.

e: nvm, caught your edit.

No idea...

Gwen has officially jumped teh shark.

 

[TetraxShards]

A 2099 Age of Apocalypse character? That's dangerously close to the 90s Marvel limit.

Gwen has officially jumped teh shark.

The month of Gwen covers didn't do that for you?

 

[Poodlestrike]

Naw. It's a fun concept, getting a little silly with the designs isn't such a bad thing.

But Age of Apocalypse is a bridge too far.

 

[echoshifting]

I actually find that costume design uninspired, derivative and boring. It's current 2099's costume + Iron Spider legs. Yawn.

The Gwen covers should have been the end of "Gwenified" costumes.

Original O Hara costume > new one.

I prefer the original but I like the new one, too

Only if she was both a clone and a Summers brother.

CMX has 148 Image #1's on sale for 99 cents each or in bundle for $120.

I picked up #1's for Drifter, Thief of Thieves, Rumble, No Mercy and Birthright.

2099 is a classical thing of the 90s for me and the new doesnt look 90s at all, thats why I dont like it

Drifter, Rumble, and No Mercy are world class books.

 

[echoshifting]

I like Birthright a lot, too. Good haul Brian.

Got an email from them about this sale and am going through the list. Getting Drifter for sure. The first two TPBs are on my IST wishlist, but I really want to read the first issue.

 

[Freezasaurus]

oh my goodness. I got my Walking Dead Negan statue today from McFarlane Toys. Haven't opened him yet but even the box is enormous.

Is there any artist/colourist who does a memorable job with the constructs for the Green Lantern rings? Most of the ones I've seen end up looking like they came out of the 1982 Tron movie.

Nei Ruffino did a lot of coloring during the Johns run and she was amazeballs.

 

[Mifune]

Oh god, I just bought way too many Image #1s.

Low, Paper Girls, Sex Criminals, Tokyo Ghost, The Wicked + Divine, Bitch Planet, Deadly Class, Velvet.

Well shit. You know you're going to have to buy every issue of six of those books.

Ha, I've tried or am currently collecting every single book in that list. Good shit.

 

[Mifune]

Well shit. You know you're going to have to buy every issue of six of those books.

Yeah, it wasn't very smart. Shoulda waited for the trade to be on sale.

Plus how often does a #1 alone really tell me if a book's a keeper or not?

 

[Freezasaurus]

Ha, I've tried or am currently collecting every single book in that list. Good shit.

Low had better be one of those "currently collecting" books.

 

[echoshifting]

Of course it is

Hmm. That seems to be after the point I quit reading that run.

Ill help, every book in that list you posted is a keeper.

I think Bitch Planet is going to vary from person to person.

I don't know how I feel about a Dark Souls comic book, but this preview is looking pretty spiffy. I'll probably end up giving it a try. I love me some Dark Souls.

 

[whatsinaname]

Damn, Killing & Dying is quite brilliant. I would recommend it to anyone just based off the first two stories - Hortisculpture and Amber Sweet. Loving the art style too. Fits perfectly with the kind of stories he is telling.

Color palette seems a bit bright to me. Titan Comics? Never heard of em. I expected IDW.

Not digitally. Picked it up at my library.

Just have him take pictures and pretend. I mean we all own the book right? This falls under backing up your files.

The Fix is 2 good.

Yes, yes it is.
I read that a month or so back and was just blown away.

 

[Freezasaurus]

What? They're more popular than fucking Zenescope.

Yes, yes it is.

Tim, can I get your reaction to the

BABY OMEGA SANCTION

from yesterday's Darkseid War Special?

 

[echoshifting]

*googles*

Huh, I guess I just breeze by these books

I can see why they are a logical choice for Dark Souls

More details about Dark Horse's Moebius collection. Unfortunately it doesn't seem as planned out as Fantagraphics' various collections.

https://thecreatorsproject.vice.com/blog/moebius-exclusive-world-of-edena-english

Bit disappointing they haven't got the details of things locked down. Would love a a nice ordered collection like the Carl Barks/Don Rosa stuff.

Oh well. I'll probably still buy it all anyway.

 

[Sadist]

oh my goodness. I got my Walking Dead Negan statue today from McFarlane Toys. Haven't opened him yet but even the box is enormous.

Negan statue? Oooooeeeh

 

[BSherrod]

Finally read All-Star Superman and Guardian Devil. I think that the hype for AS Superman kind of made me enjoy it a hair less, but it was still very good. Guardian Devil was super word-y as I expected, but a good read. Enough for me to go back to the Millar stuff and on to the Bendis stuff.

All my weekly stuff was good this week, Black Panther, TWD, Vision, etc. Great week of comics.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Negan statue? Oooooeeeh

 

[Lashley]

Love that Negan Statue

The latest issue of Doctor Strange ended on a bit of a downer after 'Abracadabra, you son of a bitch'.

No.
Yes.
I don't know.

 

[Lashley]

Nah, just seems set on Earth still, but branching out with other villains
