Second volume is fire. I thiiiiiink there's plans for a volume 3 at some point, but Johns being super damn busy these days means that's probably on hold for the foreseeable future.
It probably is. Second volume is pretty great too, best Croc in years imo.
So I've started reading Gotham Central (which is of course very good), and there was a casual mention of No Man's Land. I've seen that name dropped a couple of times, but is it actually something worth looking into, or just a thing that happened that's not really worth caring about?
Didio comics!
So I'm trying to collect all of the Ultimate Spider-Man stuff, but I'm confused with the numbering.
1 - 160 is Peter, then 161 - 188 is Miles, but 200 is before Miles Morales Ultimate Spider-Man.
If we include the 1/2 issue, the annuals, 16.1, and Cataclysm I still only get to 196.
What are the other 3? Ultimatum Spider-Man is in the 160.

Spider-Men mini?
I forgot to include Cataclsym, so I don't think Spider-Men would be in there.
Yeah if you missed cataclysm then it's that as that was the end of that universe.
Fuck Ganke eternally.
Oh man, I'm so stoked right now.
So I stopped by my tiny local library and checked out their comics section for the first time.
It's a tiny section. Just 4 or 5 shelves.
But as it turns out, it's essentially a perfectly curated collection of the best comics of the past 5 or so years.
I ended up with the following books:
Atomic Robo Vol 1
Batman: Year 100
Black Widow: Last Days
Captain America: Castaway in Dimension Z (Parts 1 & 2)
Wonder Woman: Earth One(!!!)
Deadpool: Complete Collection by Daniel Way
Night of the Living Deadpool
Hellboy: The Midnight Circus
Justice League: Trinity War
She-Hulk: Disorderly Conduct
She-Hulk: Law and Disorder
The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl Vol 1
Batman: The Court of Owls
And of course there was a ton of other great stuff that I'd already read and other great stuff that I just didn't feel like picking up today since I already had so many books.
The best part? I've got today and tomorrow off and I'm gonna try to plow through as many of these as possible.

It's my favorite batman mega event but it might not be for everyone. Fortunately DC has a decent collection in the NML trades now. Much better than the previous set that cut stuff out

Eh Suicide Squad wasn't all that terrible. I liked it a lot more than BvS.
Other than that it just felt kind of rushed and crammed packed without letting the good aspects of the movie to really breath.
Joker really didn't need to be in it and I thought Katana and Crock were pretty terrible. I liked Diablo but thought he was pretty badly written.
Night of the Living Dead pool was a lot better than i thought it would be. Return of was a little iffy.
it'll never be completed but Warren Ellis's and Ben Templesmith's Fell sounds right up your alley

Jesus fucking christ. Someone tell these directors that screen test footage + random play from your retirement home's jukebox + 20% window tint on the camera lens doesn't equal a movie.
knew Messi lied about only buying 4.

It seems like it's intended more for people who enjoy slapstick comedy.
You mean Resident Evil? I still have to play the new demo. I downloaded it weeks ago.
Zatanna figure, i do think it looks like my statue decided it wanted to buy itself a figure and start a collection.
Gripes: I don't think the posing depicted on the base and elsewhere with her leaning on the wand is possible. For one, the final design of the wand changed, it looks like a walking stick now with no handle, also the size is much larger than in the preview model and it physically can't make that pose. I like it though overall, it came out well and the only paint problem was a bit of a black smudge around the right eye but it's hard to see. It looks pretty fragile too like reviews noted about previous figures in this line. Random 8/10 just because i still like the design a lot, the articulation still seems very stiff and limited but i'm not familiar with figures because responsible people buy statues.
Also, i cannot stress how tiny this figure seems, but i don't buy a lot of figures. It's not just short, but the it's a very slender model too especially compared to my Blackest Night Mera figure.

Truth.
Any recomendations on good bookshelves. I want to start collecting trades and my desk is running out of room for pop figures.
Dropped some cash on that SS sale. Picked up
Ostrander Suicide Squad vol.1
Deadshot by Ostrander #1-4
Batman #357-359
Arkham Asylum 25th anniversary
Anything else I'm the sale worth a look.

I have two of these. One for a figure display case and one for actual books. They also sell glass doors (a bit pricey @ $50 each) for it if you want.
If you want something with more depth, the BESTA frame is also a good starting point. It can get expensive real fast once you start purchasing the shelves and doors, though.
I might just purchase a set of two for myself since they're on sale this month.
I would
I thought you dont read Harley anymore?

I think Messi might actually be the 4th pillar of DC based on how much Harley stuff he buys.
I do. I take breaks and then catch up. Much like most of my comics. Very few books hold my interest to stay current.

I think Morrison was the one who decided that the Kane's were related to the Wayne's by marriage which happened before the introduction of Kate Kane.
I always thought Bruce's mother was a Kane.
