Oh my god, Messi!! That's not a good look.
You ride the bus to work??

I was riding the subway the other week, and it was some Image comic that showed a sex scene. Some guy sat down next to me and looked at my tablet right when I turned to that page. Don't look at my stuff, guy.

I guess here's the right place to ask? DC has digital codes with their books now right? Is there an easy resale market for them if I want to buy them?

How is Secret Empire #10? Does it wrap up the event/lead into the upcoming Legecy well?

Is there really a SE Omega coming out? Can't tell if it's just a bad BC joke or not lol.

There wasn't an Alpha issue right?

So SE couldn't be wrapped up in 10 issues so they tacked on an extra issue lol. Man this should have just been part of Cap's ongoing series instead of the stupid event they tried to make it into. Maybe Spencer could have had more time to develop this and not had so much of the spotlight.

Was announced as 9 issues, had the 10th issues added and then the Omega issue later. Add to that the FCBD issue and the 0 issue...

Yes because reading a book about euthanasia for animals is much more normal on the bus... Lol



I don't give a fuck what people think of what I read. I regularly read Sunstone on the bus to work.

I probably wouldnt be the best person to ask seen as I've only read three of them (Batman, Green Arrow & Superman) but out of the rebirth first volumes I've read I'd probably go Batman. Green arrow had good art but the rest was pretty rubbish, Superman was okay and I enjoyed the father/son dynamic but didn't really grab me too much, Batman I enjoyed, was an interesting set up with Gotham/Gotham Girl (I always like the classic theme of how Gotham is pretty much awful but if your there long enough it kind of becomes part of you). From everyones opinion I should really pick up Detective next.

Also finished Defenders, after being distracted by thrones and you know life, I'd probably give it a good 8 or so. Can't help for a few reasons feel it didn't always realise its full potential, but some fun character moments, good action scenes and Danny having a few episodes were he wasn't completely awful this time made it worth a watch. Though I will admit the bit right at the end bugged me where (ending spoilers)
Matt woke up alive all bandaged up, I mean obviously he wasn't going to be dead but maybe you know leave the cliff hanger for more than ten minutes before you reveal hes alive, you know build up a bit of tension and pay off when he returns
(ending spoilers)

Asked on reddit about that Metal page with Father Time, Waller etc about who else is in the room and this is the answer I got:
This is probably the heads of the main Organizations and Government related guys/girls
Current Director of the DEO (Department of Extranormal Operations), Mister Bones.
Amanda Waller on his left - Head of the Suicide Squad
Sarge Steel -Indefatigable fighter trained to expert qualifications in the Army's Special Forces. (The one standing next to Amanda) and Director of D.M.A. (Department of Metahuman Affairs)
Steve Trevor if Im not mistaken
Girl with a afro i'd guess Hope (im probably wrong with this one)
Father Time has taking on the form of a young Asian girl in school girl uniform with an domino mask. Leader of S.H.A.D.E. who changes bodies frequently
Girl with the eye patch is probably Natalie Reed (if not mistaken) -The Lady Blackhawk of the revamped Blackhawks

Those Rod Reis pages in Secret Empire #10 are FUCKING GROSS AND INSULTING, coming from Nick Spencer of all people. Dude can honestly fuck the hell off for that one. Worst pages, from the worst comic book event of all time.

My favorite thing about secret empire is how everything in it runs counter to what Nick Spencer was saying on twitter since Hydra Cap happened. All overlayed with amateur narration.

I gotta say regarding the ending to Secret Empire,
good old Cap beating the crap out of Hydra Cap with Thor's Hammer is kind of awesome lol. That alone puts it above Civil War II's ending least.XD

Good week for me, highlighted by BPRD. There's a whole lot going on in the book right now, but man was it good to see
Liz and Abe together at the end
.

I'm beginning to wonder if the companion book for this final cycle is going to be Ashley Strode...

Kobik brings the real Steve back from the Cosmic Cube. The two hand a standoff and are evenly match. It comes down to who can lift Mjolnir. It's revealed in a flash back that Madame Hydra previously warped the rules of it which is why Captain Hydra was previously able to pick it up. Since it's now back to normal, he can no longer pick it up. Steve can and defeats him.

In the end, while Kobik returns everything back to normal, Rick Jones and Black Widow are still dead.

Deadpool also gives some extra spoilers and elaborates:

Steve and Captain Hydra are now two entirely separate entities, with Captain Hydra now captured, so I wouldn't be surprised if he makes a comeback at some point.
