Rocket Raccoon 1 was good but 2 was a lot of fun. Skottie Young is truly a master at his craft and this was just great all the way through.
Enjoyed Grayson 2 as well, had to cop the selfie variant.

YESSSSS I'm loving that comixology is continuing to fill in their gaps of the older batman comics. After the mega sale I'm really getting interested in reading more of batman from the 70s & 80s. I have all the big trades from those eras but these other stories are fun too
That makes every order a surprise.
Oh man. Just saw this panel from Rocket Rackoon #2: http://i.imgur.com/5RBCvPE.jpg
Too good.
I assume you're a professional librarian then? If so, that's way cool. That's something I've always thought would be a cool career.

Duarte is a god. Monsters (or Monstros) is a must-have.
And if you can manage to find Birds anywhere, it's his masterpiece.

Moon Knight #7 preview looks terrible. Already miss Shalvey.
I am indeed, I really can't see myself doing anything else.

New Avengers was Awesome. T'challa went in on Namor.
It's only $10. I think all of ComicGAF should read this as homework.

I'm trying to find it on Amazon, nothing's showing up. Did you buy the only copy? Looks fantastic!
Type in "Monster Duarte"
There should be about 7 or so copies left. So hyped. Loved the art I saw on Google.

I am honestly so thrilled to get you guys into Duarte. When I first saw Birds it literally changed the way I draw overnight.
He's just incredible.

I know in the past I have made jokes about French comics, criterion collections, vinyl, and fedoras, but I do legitimately want to know if there are any French/foreign comics that I should be reading.
More specifically, I'm looking for some French Sci-Fi/Fantasy epics.
I legitimately bought it right after you mentioned the art. Came to $11 and will be here by Friday.

Ha, no kidding. It's a little ridiculous.

Read Moon Knight and I'm sad to see Ellis and Shalvey go. I very much look forward to their next project.

Skottie young draws a great Groot
Amazing price. I wanted it right away though. I would need to make a bigger IST order for them to ship it to me fast.
Speaking of IST, I am building an order there. I have never read We3 so I need to correct that. I also added that Conan that Kipp suggested and now I'm looking to throw some more stuff on.

Makes me wish Moebius stuff wasn't so damn expensive...
There's a ton of French stuff on Comixology; I've already picked up some of the stuff that randomly goes on sale for $0.98 just for the art.
Looks pretty cool. I read Naja. That book doesn't get any love here but I do enjoy it.
Arzach was one of the books I was thinking of. I want to check that out.

English translation of the new book should be out in a couple of months.

Yup, that's my go-to rec. for French comics, even though the creators are Spanish.

Looks like I'll wait to pick this one up then. Does it collect all the current releases?
It's a graphic novel.
You should pick up the first two books which are fucking mind blowing.
A silent hell is volume 2 and Blacksad is the name of the first volume.

It's just the newest book, Amarillo. You'll still want Blacksad, and Blacksad: A Silent Hell.

How's the Obscure Cities stuff? That's French, i think. I saw the translation of The Leaning Girl (the first OC book i believe) at SDCC but i was done spending money by the time i came across it
I feel like that was an effect of the New 52. but then Court of Owls and Death of the Family, so maybe it's just a problem of his

Please buy Batmanga. It is so far ahead of it's time and I would really like to continue to get more books like these.
Eh. I'm sure he'll be at NYCC. I'll get it signed then.

Ahh okay, I wasn't sure if it was or not. Looks like I'll make note of it then!
I was really curious about this one; almost asked about it the other day. So you enjoyed it?
It's Batman and Speed Racer. The scans are a bit iffy, but the colored pages are wonderful. It made me laugh and I loved Lord Death Man. His power is dying on command.

I enjoyed District 14 season 1. Really liked the art style. Comes in a nice hardcover as well.
Gotta get round to season 2 eventually.
Wow another amazing book. This stuff is awesome.
What is this and why aren't I reading it?

Alex + Ada keeps me coming back. I'm surprised the book has stayed so interesting without resorting to human x robot sex.
But it's on the way, of that I have no doubt.

New Warriors is so good. If it weren't for Superior Foes and Hawkeye (when it does come out) I'd say it's my favorite Marvel book right now. It's a great team book that's just a joy to read.
