Not even Guardians 3000? It's what I picked up with Low today.

Read Thor: God of Thunder today. 'Twas good. Loved the librarian.
Gaaah. This is driving me crazy.
Any time I do heavy exercise (which is every other day, so it's kind of a big issue), I get crazy brain fog for the rest of the day and can't focus on anything (most significantly, I can't enjoy reading at all).
I really wanted to read a bunch of comics today, and read a lot more of The Rum Diary (I just started my third read of it. It's kind of becoming a tradition to read it every winter) which I was enjoying so much pre-exercise, but then I went for a run (couldn't bike because of the glorious rain, which is lame) and everything is ruined for the rest of the day.

Haha yes. That was the highlight for me as well.

This week is pretty small for me too, this is from my DCBS order so far.
I thought it might have been a glitch or something.

"I don't suppose you're a God of Sprinklers, are you?"
"I am Shadrak, God of Songs and Somersaults."
"Terrific. Try rolling around in that fire to put it out."

This past week I have started reading Jodorowsky and Moebius' 'The Incal'. Anyone else read it or any of Jodorowsky's other works? What are your thoughts oh wise ComicsGaf?
Now that you ( / we?) are in community this is acceptable behaviour right? People won't get scared away, right? Seeing as this is ComicGaf and not just Marvel&DCGaf I felt this was the right place to ask.

Everyone around here who has read The Incal enjoys The Incal, especially cuz its probably the most "straightforward" of either Moebius or Jodorowsky major comic work

All of my Black Friday IST orders arrived today.
I read it for the first time last month and loved it. Great art and great world building too.

Very nice haul, that uncle scrooge + Donald duck collection looks awesome.
I like the build quality of the ipad 3 more than ipad air 2, maybe things can be too light/thin. I don't like how the air 2's bezel edge is raised, there is a rigid sharpness to it. The back aluminum feels too "thin", the tablet vibrates when the speakers are used, there are more smudge marks noticeable on the black bezel cover and back apple. I'm going to have to read a serious amount of comics on it to see if i'm keeping it or not.

Strangers in Paradise omnibus arrived today. That is one solid brick of paper.... I should be able to start digging in this weekend. I'm finishing up the last few story quests in Dragon Age.
GH still MIA?

Ha ha. I know he's not dead because my PSN dashboard is constantly telling me about his Dragon Age exploits.
I'd like to see the 6 edges on the Air.
Disagree about 'too light/thin' though, at least in tablets. When the iPad dropped that weight to the Air it was a game changer.
Did no one else pick up Angela today? I just wrapped the issue up, and thought it was pretty good stuff.
YAY so can we start the Strangers in Paradise group read now?

At least until you get sucked into the abyss that is Dragon Age: Inquisition. Say hi to GH for me.

I picked it up and thought about it, but I wanted to wait for impressions mainly. Same for Secret Six
I keep Freezaing posts
Too many He-Man Woman Haters in this world!
But f'real, this may be Marvel's first superheroine that doesn't look like she'd die in childbirth without an enormous rack. This body type is common more common than the under-fed model and the large assets / tiny waist... I'm glad it's finally being portrayed.

The art is half the appeal for me. Don't think I'd give a fuck about food-cops otherwise.
His art is so damn good, its almost unreal.
I wish more comics wouldn't strive for realism over style.
Good cartooning is a dying art.
Aaaah! I gotta finish up Preacher real quick or I'm gonna get left behind! Don't start without me, guys!

Relax, I won't start until this weekend anyhow. Dragon Age still needs me.
oh i want it to be light and thin, but it can't vibrate when the speakers are being used, that's fairly unacceptable for me.
Even if CM Punk's story in the upcoming Thor Annual sucks, at least it'll have Rob Guillory's art! I'm excited to see his first work for Marvel.

So I have two days to read like 18 issues of Preacher.
I'm going to get left behind and everyone is going to be discussing SiP without me and life will be meaningless.
Pretty simple solution to that problem.

I gotta catch up with Chew sometime. Gangsta Snap, Crackle and Pop is amazing.
This is what happens when you move to the community, threads get set to vibrate.

I don't know if anyone here backed the Kickstarter for Wakfu but they just sent out the Comixology codes for the first two volumes of the manga (although it's technically French so I dunno why it's called manga).
I know. Every time I look at that panel I burst out laughing.
Honestly I suspect we only see about a third of the story now with digital sales.
I know Transformers: More Than Meets The Eye has been the top or second top selling comic in iBooks for several months now, and I believe it's consistently been in the top five in some territories in Comixology for some time (Japan loves it in particular).
It might well sell five times the print run digitally. Likewise, I suspect Image is selling much better in trade or digitally.
Step your funnybooks game up, son!
But seriously, let me know when you guys start reading SiP because I'm gonna join in on the book-club fun.
That's because Transformers is the dog's bollocks, the mutt's nutts and the bee's knees, son.
Just finished reading it, SO GOOD!! I think it may be my favorite breakout comic of the year.

The most recent issue was some damn good comics. EVERYTHING IS FINE.
