How's the new run from Bendis compared to it? Same story told differently, or new plot?

I sleep naked but its not as lewd as you might think. I just like the freedom of it. But no its not lewd.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Where is this from?

Plastic Nee-san. The whole series is about 30 minutes long. Watch it.

Excuse me if I didn't use the right vernacular, but I meant the Marvel comics

Oh. Who cares about comics?

Do you mean the new Marvel books or the old Dark Horse ones?

 

[Owzers]

I'm watching an iffy zombie movie on Netflix called "Plague" there's been a few well done moments but it's a lot of scenes where people are doing boring stuff.

Kinda like the walking dead comic.

The new ones breh. who the heck has time to go back and read all that irrelevant stuff?

Hahahahaha

I would imagine it all takes place in the original trilogy timeframe for now. Until Shattered Empire starts.

USELESS

I also imagine Valiant books are pretty terrible. And I'm right about the Star Wars thing, sooooooo.......

 

[Brian Fellows]

I wish Marvel would have given the Ultraverse it's own domain and tie-in for SW. That would have been really cool for me and the 10 other people who remember Ultraverse.

Eightball/Like A Velvet Glove Cast In Iron #1 - I have no idea what's going on...

I shall set it aside and try again when I am a little more awake.

You people are heathens. I always have clothes on.

Nah, I sleep naked. I'm naked right now.

 

[Freezasaurus]

HEY

sleeping naked is the bees knees.

But really, I have no idea why people would wear clothes in bed.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

HEATHENS

Honestly, I'm just used to wearing clothes in bed.

 

[PsychBat!]

freeza and I have something special, LP. We have something in common: nakedness. You can't touch us.

To be fair, I probably wouldn't want to...

 

[my name is ed]

dammit I keep forgetting to say happy birthday Ed

Happy birthday!

Thank you!

How many good ones are there?

Idk but I intend to find out!

What comic podcasts do you listen to? I'm trying to find a good one but so far the ones I've checked out are alright. There's very few episodes from them that I'm interested in.
- Nerdist Comic Book Club
- Comic Conspiracy
- Comic Geek Speak
- iFanboy

Sktchd podcast is my fave.

 

[Messi]

Whats that supposed to mean? You are too good for comicgaf's hot bodies?

That's exactly what it means...

Can I just say that regardless of how I feel about the story in Wicked and the Divine Jamie McKelvie's art is amazing every month. It's very clean and stylish.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

My sister got this for me. It's cool but it's fucking enormous:

 

[Freezasaurus]

Idk but I intend to find out!

There was a fetish artist from a ways back named Michael Manning. He had this really cool art style with a strict black / white color palette. No gray-scale. He put out a number of graphic novels, my favorite of which was called Tranceptor. There were two books, and the story was never finished as far as I know, but I really liked it.

Can I just say that regardless of how I feel about the story in Wicked and the Divine Jamie McKelvie's art is amazing every month. It's very clean and stylish.

Read Phonogram. You can get dat hot Jamie McKelvie art and you don't have to see

Spoiler

ALL OF YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTERS SYSTEMATICALLY KILLED OFF AAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

 

[Messi]

Fuck sake I nearly clicked that

Seen that before Tyrant. It's awesome looking and huge.

 

[Freezasaurus]

You would have had no one to blame but yourself. But if you're all caught up on Wicked + Divine, it wouldn't be anything you don't know.

Nope but I own it.

She was at a signing in my town with Gillen today. I couldn't go

It's too big! I don't know where to put it. It doesn't fit in my shelves

I'm surprised she didn't get you a giant book full of animu girls.

I'd like a giant book full of animu girls.

I'd like that too, but I'll take this for now. Probably gonna buy Satoshi Kon's artbook soonish and that's close enough.

Okay, just read the first 3 issues of Old Man Logan from Millar. It's weird, it's crazy, it's good!

How's the new run from Bendis compared to it? Same story told differently, or new plot?

If you're referring to the Secret Wars book (which you have to be), it's essentially a direct sequel, but the twist is that it happens on Battleworld. Battleworld is a patchwork planet created by Doom using various pieces that are isolated alternate universes. Old Man Logan's universe (referred to as the Badlands, I think) is one of these. Basically, Logan ends up picking up a trail starting in his part of Battleworld, and then shenanigans happen that take him to other places in Battleworld.

It's decent. The art's good, but there's a lot of talking, and the thing that made Old Man Logan a cool story (it's unique world) is removed from it fairly early on. Also, there's a lot of talking and not as much action. It's solid, though. I'd pick it up if you're interested, and it's early yet so there isn't much to catch up on.

 

[Freezasaurus]

I've got my eye on that Senran Kagura artbook that Udon put out. It's probably going in my IST order this week.

But think of how satisfying it'll be when it finally happens.

Damn I didn't know Messi wasn't up to date. Didn't know that's what he was talking about earlier today. I will be careful with spoolees

I'm watching an iffy zombie movie on Netflix called "Plague" there's been a few well done moments but it's a lot of scenes where people are doing boring stuff.

Kinda like the walking dead comic.

Seems to me Robert Kirkman isn't for you, because there's a lot of that. I love talking and slice of life stuff, even during boring moments.

#1 reason I'm hyped for Halo 5 is Tim Longo directing it. It's the Republic Commando spiritual successor we never got.

Woah, I didn't know that. If Halo 5 comes to PC (hopefully Steam too) I'll be playing it. I love tactical squad action, it's a shame Brothers in Arms gets overlooked by Gearbox in favour of endless Borderlands games.

Lol I missed this post the first time.

Evidently you haven't seen the show. It takes the 2 chapter lulls and turns them into full seasons.

 

[Tizoc]

So for those that read Kaijumax # 5

Spoiler

OK wtf was up with that psychiatrist chick? She just up and dismisses Electrogger's story as BS? That's plain ridiculous.
Seriously I can see Electrogger working with the mechs to get rid of Zonn, wonder when the prison riot's gonna happen.
Poor Woofey though @_@

This amazing, what anime is this?

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Finished the fourth Hellboy Library Edition and I'm about to start the fifth.

First impression: This book is thick

 

[Death by BB Gun]

This amazing, what anime is this?

It's Plastic Nee-San, correct?

 

[Freezasaurus]

This amazing, what anime is this?

Plastic Nee-san. The entire series is only about 30 minutes.

Funnily enough it is on my 'to watch list' XO

 

[Yousefb]

Thinking of checking out Siege, Marvel Zombies, and Attilan Rising. These any good?

 

[Serpentine]

I've posted my haul pics of SDCC in the past and with each passing year, it gets smaller and smaller. I'm rather selective with what I buy now.

I had planned on going to Long Beach Comic Con next month but I think I'm going to skip it. There are way too many events happening in September that I think I need a little break from cons. I'm in the middle of redesigning my master bedroom and my son's room so I actually have some room to display the stuff I've bought. I have a ton of action figures sitting in their boxes unopened. :/

nooooo, but i understand why. maybe wondercon!

They have a Daredevil one too, I want it @_@
