Three weeks of comics just came in, and a special extra.
What's everything sandwiched in between?

Robocop
Goonies
Predator
The Thing
Those movies are my homework for the uninitiated.
Messi moved to Japan and married his Scarlett Johansson Hot Toy.
I've never seen any of those movies.
Life is good in Japan Btw. It's not much like Lost in Translation.

Make sure you comb her hair at least once a week. Please send my regards to Chris Hemsworth as well.
Edit: Please add Terminator & Terminator 2 to that list.

i've seen It and i get what you're saying but i was thinking of something more upbeat adventurous and fun
Hm..i'll have to check this one out
I read it too (just always a month behind). And its still pretty good but the book is changing tone and going to something else. I also wonder how much the newer arcs are being influenced by him thinking of creating tv show capable arcs. They don't move around near as much as before. But then again he's still mining some decent material out of the characters
Right after the Prison arc up to around issue 110 was fantastic. All Out War, the first and hopefully only event for the series suffered from the increased release schedule, but ultimately pushed the book to where it needed to go.
The current arc so far has been the best since the prison, and it seems like it's only going to get better. I'm afraid to say a lot about it, because most of the book's progression is based on spoilers.

Talking zombies!
I'm looking forward to seeing where Kirkman takes it. Hopefully it's a new fact of life with the series, because I don't remember any
talking zombies
Land of the Dead and Day of the Dead did. I have a feeling that
these zombies won't talk as much as make noises or will say things from their past or talk about being hungry.
debates about if killing them is moral.

integrate them into society

Yeah, except for the Future's End issue.
Whats her new Series? Wonder Woman?
Oeh, comic book store carried the Amazing X-Men TP aka the last time for now Jason Aaron works on the X-Men. The series with a new writer quickly turned to being meh right now, but Aaron knows how to write a fun X-book. It has swashbucklin' X-Men man. Plus that bro hug between Nightcrawler and Wolvie 
Marvel knows how to get my money judging my small collection of books. I might be a bit biased here. Don't know for sure.

Started buying some comics back in 2010, I'm just a casual fan I guess.

Dunno. Wonder Woman is going to Finch. A new Secret Six series has been heavily hinted at, though.

Where's Hawkguy and Superior Foes?
Actually wanted to buy Hawkguy, but decided to do that next time. Love Fraction's style, so it'll happen sooner or later. Haven't read Superior Foes yet. Want to collect Ultimate Spider-Man and Wolverine & the X-Men run by Aaron before starting something else
Add those to my list also.

I absolutely adore the Six Gun Gorilla Hardcover, the only thing I wish they could have done further was make it oversized. For anyone interested it is still available from the Boom Studios website

Does anybody know what is up with the American Vampire Second Cycle solicitations? In my Sept DCBS order I had pre-ordered #6.
I looked on TFAW's website and it said #6 was coming out in Sept while #5 was in October. There isn't an issue for me to pre-order on DCBS for October, so I'm confused.

I own lots of movies, I just don't like what most of you folks seem to like. I watch mostly rom coms and other such chick flicks.

How can you be Mr. Strong Female Protagonist Fan and not have seen Terminator? You need Sarah Connor in your life, bro.

Did you have to explain to your boys why you were watching Sex in the City when they were watching 24
I've been forced to watch a handful of romantic comedies, and I ended up at the very least finding them moderately tolerable. I like that one with the dead dude and the mail box.

remember when we used to talk about comics
I still have nightmares.
Oh come on. Let's not act like this is a surprise to anyone here.
You guys don't like Pretty Woman?
I watched both. But enjoyed Sex in the City more. That's a legitimately good show.

Not particularly. Serendipity is my shit, though.

Richard Gere weirds me the fuck out but I can't hate on Pretty Woman.
Well, let's see. My girlfriend, as fantastic as she is, does love Romantic movies. She puts up with my hobby and let's me be me so I try to be as supportive as I can for whatever she likes. I've seen quite a few of them, and Pretty Woman is very good. I had not ever seen it prior to being with her, and she opened my mind to a few of them. Twilight can suck it though. I've fallen asleep on every single one of them and even she figured out the series is fucking awful.
Stand outs are:
Gerard Butler Is Dead
Neo Loves Mailboxes
Richard Gere In: Island House: Pretty Woman 2: Plane Explosion
Pretty Woman: Richard Gere might have VD.

Sorry to go off topic, but speaking of comics, I finally got around to watching that "What Do Artists Do All Day: Frank Quitely" mini documentary. So great.
And back on topic, I watched Robocop today since I hadn't seen it and it was on the list of four movies everyone should've seen already. That was pretty awesome.
