People sell codes from their physical issues. I believe zombert buys the off a friend. I'm sure there are some on eBay.

Some people frown on it.

Wait. You get codes from physical issues for digital copies? Or am I misunderstanding? Is that just a Marvel thing or does DC do that? #comicsnoob

Look I love Rat Queens. But Deadly Class is better. It's so damn good and it consistently hits it's schedule. Artist changes and delays have severely damaged Rat Queens.

That said when Rat Queens ships it's up there with the best if them. I wish Sejic could have stayed on. It was perfect for me :(

Marvel's issues that cost $3.99 or more usually come with digital codes. Their hardcovers come with them pretty often now too.

Let's say Capullo leaves Batman at the end of his contract. But Snyder stays on. Who do you guys see as a long term replacement? Jock? Sean Murphy? Rafael Albuquerque? (Zombine might die if that happened)

The Killface is for my roommate. Frisky Dingo is one of the three shows that he actually likes.

Nice! Toy Wars really isn't far from there, either, there's backroad way that should show up if you route in a smartphone app.

It turns out that when a billion Star Wars games get made there are a ton of really good ones. Granted that there have been amazing Star Wars games since almost the beginning starting with the great at the time (and which I feel holds up decently) original arcade Star Wars.

For some reason that isn't nearly as appealing a character trait as it should be. It just translates to more angst when there's already more than enough to go around. The book is drowning in it.

You're breaking my heart, echo.

Here's how I see it. The comic is irreverent and the characters aren't very likable to start with, all true, but the comic delivers on almost every other front up until the end of the second arc. Particularly, all the story beats seem to be turned up to 11. The end of the second arc is really when it starts hitting the high notes in the character development, particularly with Maria and Marcus. Maria is an amazing character, and Marcus is totally fucked up, but you start to sympathize and relate to his feelings. He still feels pretty unstable, though, but you kind of understand why.

I would suggest you persist, but then again, maybe it's just not your thing.

Woah, no heart breaking! Ya know what, I think you've sold me on plugging through the end of the second arc and the beginning of the third. I'll give it another shot. I can't pick it up today but I'll check back in next week with the results.

You just take any good genre and apply a Star Wars theme, then collect monies.

If you don't enjoy it, come back and tell me my opinions suck and you'll never trust them again. I'll understand.

My terrible face hunter with garbage non-rare and basic stuff just went 2/3 and i should have won the third if not for the unstable portal getting them the Legendary Demon on mage that makes them immune. Previous to that, my midrange beast hunter deck kept losing. This is what you get for trying. Hearthstone is so weird, kinda makes me think about reading comics.
