oh man, I don't know if I can resist a Fine Art Wonder Woman statue. She is my spirit animal.
I don't know exactly how the trials work but it's 9.99 a month on my end. Also, dont worry about who's wrestling, or how they wrestle, or why they wrestle. Isn't the fact that they wrestle enough?

You'll probably get it. All they have scheduled at the moment is a movie version ArtFX, though.
And you'll like it!

Is there a site that tracks all the upcoming statues?

It was a legit free month when I signed up. I ended up keeping it though, as the amount of wrestling I watch made it well worth it.
The Network also gets you the NXT shows, which are usually better than the main shows. It's the developmental brand that Triple H runs. NXT Takeover Orlando was last night and it was fantastic.

Going to bed but I love Snyder's face in this picture.
Should have been called "The Metal". The cover need a different Batman outfit. This event will suck if the the bunny Bat-mech doesn't show up and there's a upgraded badass version called Superheavy Metal. I reserve hype for this event until the The Button crossover is done. It looks great though.
Ia there a connection between the two other than Batman being in them?
I love his suit but like echo said it's a missed chance to make the axes his carrying match with something.Thought we all loved the new Batman suit
Same, I'm sure Snyder will find a way to screw up the ending

Whoa, Snyder hate? I don't think I've seen that before.

From the panel, him being Johns:
Thanks for the feedback on the wwe thing guys, still debating haha says a lot when it's free and I'm still not sure...next sounds interesting though. I've never saw anything of that.
Have you seen some of the responses for the latest Justice League trailer?
Yeah probably old and such.TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared

Why doesn't DC have an equivalent to Marvel unlimited? MU has meant I've bought more comics, both trades and individual issues. I'm not willing to put the same investment into DC right now.

Have you never seen Tim or I post about his Batman before? Neither of us are fans.
The common complaint about his run has been the ending of his big stories.
That's interesting.
The common excuse we have seen is that it's because they have strong trade sales, but we have seen rumors that they may be working on something with Amazon.
This. It's a cover reveal essentially.
Right, it's not like either of us have ever been coy about not liking his stuff.

So uh, Seven To Eternity vol 1. I thought that was pretty awesome. I honestly didn't expect much, everyone seems pretty meh and only 4 issues had me skeptical but I don't know. I wouldn't rate it as highly as Deadly Class, but the premise is compelling and I'm definitely interested in what happens next. The cast are interesting, the world building and lore work in tandem to create an interesting fantasy world and the art is just exquisite.
If I had any issue, it would be in the time taken at certain points towards world building and fleshing out of the lore, it felt at times like the plot was moving a little fast and flying past concepts and characters I was interested in knowing a bit more about a little too quickly. Certain things like the prose openings combat this problem to an extent, and in its own way, I do like being inside of a world I legitimately want to know more about and feeling like there's more beyond the panels that I want to see. It's better than not giving a shit or the book feeling shallow or bland.
Overall, a pretty heavy thumbs up, I'm glad to have this one on my shelf.

My guess is JSA as well. I remember him doing a reddit AMA a few years ago and saying multiple times how much he missed writing JSA and how unhappy he was with the N52 for taking them away.

Haha.
I still need to buy the last two volumes of their Batman run. I think changing the design of the HCs must have put me off.

Read the pre N52 JSA. It's awesome stuff
You're missing out, man. There are three huge omnibus volumes and they're fantastic stuff. I didn't care about the JSA at all before reading and now they're one of my favorite teams.

Got caught up on Deathstroke. Still good, but not as good as that first arc was towards the end. I feel like Priest is bouncing around a little too much in the timeline. Still, there's plenty of plusses. Slade remains an INCREDIBLY bad father. Like, shockingly terrible, in a really fun way. I'm curious to see how the Rose stuff goes down, ditto Jericho. The decision to make this into a Wilson Family title is an interesting one. Also really looking forward to seeing more New Power Girl, who isn't a character I've seen much of before. Feels Moon Girl esque, but she came first, didn't she?

eight issues is a lot.

Riddler as a fascist is an interesting take on it, but it kind of works. Making it a choice between literally anybody and the Joker strikes me as kind of a stacked deck, though. Still, the Riddler bit from the most recent issue would seem to indicate that Batman screwed him over, so I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that the "choose a side" narrative is a deliberately false dichotomy.
Eh, not so much. The current arc is basically the culmination of the entire run so far, so it's effectively twice that long.

Holy shit Ghost Rider went out like a wet fart
Bad art, bad writing, barely any Robbie, idiot Cho, dumb villain, too many cameos, weirdly out of character Laura-Wolverine
2/10 and the 2 is just for the scene where Robbie hits Cho with his car a bunch
Jesus Christ what a disappointment

Giant Days (#9-#12) continues to be great fun. The camping trip was awesome. As was Big Lindsay. I didn't know Giant Days was spun off from some webcomic!
Storm Watch (#43-#47) was quite brilliant too. Especially #44. Very similar to the trip through Batman's history in the Planetary/Batman crossover but this one is on a much larger scale of course. And Jenny Sparks is the perfect character to try this walk through the history of comics with.
The breakup was also well done and was easy to spot coming. I just hope they don't wallow in some sort of Rachel/Ross FRIENDS story line.

How upset were you? On a scale of 1-10.
That issue hurt if I am honest. I was in denial to the same level as I was when it happened to Maria

The book keeps getting better btw.
Maybe 6/10
But I am 11/10 baffled as to where the series goes from there.
I am a couple of issues past that and I suppose killing of 99% of your original cast including the protagonist is ballsy. The new characters are alright I guess, but it is a bit weird.
So Marcus wasn't the focus of the series or indeed the main character after all?
I guess Saya is?
Fuck knows.
