You did but a sketch cover for the Sandman Special in the OP.
Cover wasn't available when we made the OP.

Fair enough.
In other news, Bleeding Cool decided to put this article out.
Yes, Most Marvel Comics Writers Are Conservatives. And?
Messi didn't do it, I left out that eyesore of a standard cover.
Trust me I would have stopped it.

hell yes. stoked to listen to this.
He forms his argument around the idea that because UK conservatives are to the left of US liberals (which is very reductive as it is) liberal Marvel writers are actually more conservative. His larger point is that there are no strong leftist voices writing for Marvel, which is actually true but not at all what the headline would suggest (naturally - it's Rich!).
What a weird article. As he says, UK conservatives are to the left of most US liberals, so by that definition pretty much everybody in the US is a conservative. It has to be relative to your location. It's like he's the only one whose being willfully ignorant to that.
Not that that's a surprise of course, but still.
He's arguing that marvel writers are conservative but is using British standards and typical cliclbait

I thought people here liked Brian Cronin's work...
lmao
lol. I was going to ask for your all's opinion on whether I should pull the trigger on my IST "damaged book" sale tentative order. About $50 total for Invincible Compendium Vol 1, Nightwing by Dixon Vol 3, and JL Generation Lost Vol 1 and 2. Cover price for these four together is $165. I wasn't sure if I should go for this while they're that price or wait for Journey Into Mystery Omnibus to go back in stock on IST and buy that instead. Then I thought to myself, okay, I could get 2000 pages of great content right now, or wait and get a 700 page omnibus for the same price. The thought process made me realize that it would be silly not to take advantage of this sale. Sure, an omnibus is a much nicer format, but the content is more important than the format. I can always get JIM Omnibus in a month or so.
Book three is in October and book four is in January!

You just Wikipedia'd that. I saw the caption on that image too. But I'm pretty sure the clone thing was a whole arc and not just a single issue.

Give or take. I know that it was Dustin Weaver that did it, but didn't know when the arc started. So, I just guessed.
Been keeping busy with travelling across the country the last two weeks, but I've had some of the downtime in flights to read some books. Preacher was a phenomenal series all throughout, and I was genuinely surprised at how introspective and thoughtful Garth Ennis gives to the characters' dialogue.
Afterwards, I read through the Sandman Mystery Theatre Book 2 in one sitting and having read the books before in physical trade, I was surprised at the inclusion of an annual that explores a crime from the perspective of different people involved.
Finally, I'm continuing my readthrough of the John Ostrander / Kim Yates Suicide Squad Run and almost finishing up vol. 4, The Janus Directive. It's actually cool to see the Squad interact and get involved in a crossover that incorporates a lot of other books done around the same time (like Manhunter and Checkmate). Pretty excited to see where it goes, and volume 5 is ready and downloaded after I'm done!

I'm jealous you have many opportunities to see NJPW, the SoCal show sold out fastHaven't read much today. Almost finished with Gotham Academy
My friend and I beat Bloodborne and now I'm off to see New Japan Pro Wrestling with someone else for the first time. Do you want pics of slams? Not sure if I'll have a good view.

There are so many events in general in big cities in Japan. It's ridiculous. If I were rich, I'd be going to events 7 days a week.
Also, holy shit that event was so hype tonight. Way better crowd than the last wrestling show I went to. Also better crowd than at Sumo haha. Sumo is fun, though, too.

I like how everybody else gets a silly name and Batman is still just Batman. Statement about how serious he is or how silly his name is?

I'm finished with Gotham Academy. Sad time.
I liked the last two issues a lot.
I think I mentioned this in here before, but I was so shocked when I found this book. For years, I've wished for a quality piece of film, game, show, novel, or comic about a boarding school with lots of mysteries and a group of students that investigate them. I wanted a low key occult atmosphere. This was pretty much exactly this book, so I was ecstatic when I found it one day. Is there any other comic (or any medium) that matches my wishes (and isn't Harry Potter)?

It's Clark's memories but Bizarro being Bizarro believes they are his. Funny enough I'm pretty sure this the first time we see what Clark's Rebirth origin is, obviously heavily edited by Bizarro.
