I wonder if people are going to accuse us of being DC fanboys/fangirls again

I Just like me some good comics ...

Spoiler

and Batman

I think Image has some very good quality books.

 

[whatsinaname]

Marvel Unlimited is 75 cents for the first month. Use code MARVEL75. (Will be a $9.99 renewal starting from the second month, of course).

I've been called worse. Not much worse though. I took three days off from GAF over the weekend, then I come back and OT seems to be all over the place (not here of course, never here, we're a dysfunctional but happy family).

Arguing about the merits of studios/publishers is so funny to me. It's like the threads about chain pizza, it's still fucking chain pizza at the end of the day. My favourites are the "COMIC MOVIES ARE KILLING CINEMA GRRRR!", because you know, mainstream cinema before Blade was 100% high art. I also like its' sibling "Adaptations are all terrrible and derivative, I know movies are made from books all the time but THAT DOESN'T COUNT BECAUSE REASONS!!!" *insert gif*).

I only read free range comics myself. *tips fedora*

 

[Zombine]

We all know how that list goes on here

1 Batman
2 Harley Quinn
3 Grant Morrison

If the outside catches wind of it?

1. Chris Pratt
2. Starlord
3. Groot/Rocket Raccoon.

Why would you write such a long post without telling us what your favorite chain pizza is?

 

[Messi]

I feel like the regular off topic forum is constantly talking about Marvel, but the Marvel/DC/Image distribution is pretty fair from within the comic thread itself.

Absolutely.

 

[TetraxShards]

We only have a Dominos in Waterford (the nearest Pizza Hut is Kilkenny I think). It is like €20 for a pizza here which is daylight robbery. I ate it a few times in college but it was like rubbery cardboard and I had to slather it in sauce to get it to taste okay. The local chipper was voted one of the best in the country so when I want a pizza I get it there which is less than half the price. Most of the time I will just get a base from the bread counter at the supermarket, top it myself and cook it at home.

This is very off-topic. I read Loki: Agent of Asgard #1-8, Scarlet Spider: Life after Death, Serenity: Leaves on the Wind and the Harley Quinn trade over the weekend and they were all pretty good.

 

[Zombine]

Absolutely.

It's not really Marvel as much as its MCU and event reading to try and figure out where the movies could go next.

Has it actually shipped or does it say shipping notification received?

It actually shipped,, gave me the usual USPS tracking #

 

[whatsinaname]

I placed so many orders for Black Friday. 3 at IST, one at B&N, one at TFAW and one at Amazon.

Cool. They seem to be sending me fedex tracking numbers 2 days before it actually ships.

 

[E the Shaggy]

I just finished Starman.

They don't make comics like this anymore.

Yep, unfortunately. There's no way it would survive in the current market.

 

[Freezasaurus]

It's all about girly hijinx and tiger boobs these days.

 

[fertygo]

I thought current market even less caring about sales number, since they're too low for worth a shit..

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Oh, snap! :O

Might it be worth it?

Depends. I have ready only most the Crossovers involving Spider-Man and Batman and their were pretty good.
I preordered because I wanted to collect them anyway, so this comes hand and even the price is ok for an Omnibus.

Sillymonkey321 is making the Marvel OT as we speak

 

[whatsinaname]

Y'all are going from Civil War to Inversion. Civil War was about having a separate DC thread and now we're discussing a possible Marvel thread?

Incursion happened with a different Universe, where the Civil War was in the other direction.

No one is serious. If we were, we'd be talking about making a thread just for Image books. Just good comics, no event bullshit, and no Grant Morrison. Sounds like heaven.

The ElNarez PORN COMIX post needs to be in the OP for that

 

[Messi]

I'd read some porn comics. Anyone got any reccs?

You guys need a Lewd COMICS! thread.

 

[ElNarez]

Are we really going to turn a thread celebrating THE FINE COMICS OF NOVEMBER into a "Hey Narez hook me up on that cool hentai shit"? I'm down for whatevs, but, there might be rules and/or regulations against that. And I'd rather talk about whether or not I should be pumped about Secret Six, because last time Simone worked on a pet project it was The Movement and we all know how that went.

OH, and there's the last three issues of Axis to talk shit about. And Kieron Gillen's returning to Asgard. And there's that long lost Morrison Miracleman story Quesada is drawing. I guess also that comic based on the tv show based on the movie based on the comic Mark Waid is doing. And the Powers reboot! Bitch Planet! A new Eric Stephenson joint! WicDiv is back! Thunderworld!

Guys who gives a fuck about hentai, there's COMICS! to discuss.

EDIT: okay, the Secret Six preview looks PRETTY GOOD, like what Suicide Squad would be if it was made by cool people, I dig it. COMICS!

 

[ZiZ]

they're bringing back Damian Wayne?

I always figured they'd go Lazarus pit or use one of his clones.

Are you saying porn books have less value than American books. That's what I am seeing.

You got a problem with Sunstone bro?

Let's fight.

then make sweet love

Oh man this thread is so funny! comics look pretty cool, I've only read a few of them myself. What IS better, DC or marvel? I tried reading Watchmen after I saw the movie but it was a bit boring (to me at least!) and the costumes were lame compared to the leather stuff in the movie (<3 silk spectre!). What's like the opposite of Watchmen?

They will say Image.


But honestly. This is like asking Pepsi or Coca Cola or Xbox or PlayStation. Depends.

Has anyone read Peter Milligan's Shade The Changing Man? I noticed my LCS has the old issues when I was looking for some Sandman Mystery Theatre floppies.

 

[frye]

just shut this thread down, roundabout for the best poster of the month jesus christ

 

[frye]

Yeah it's dope until issue 50 where Bachalo leaves the book and Milligan does something that changes the series pretty dramatically for the worse

I had that on my order,, figured id make another order soon.
Wishing I would have ordered it though, don't know much about Casanova but the couple previews I could find looked great,, sounds awesome. Dammit,, I might make another order now. haha

 

[Filthy Slug]

Dammit...that song has been stuck in my head the entire past week. Song spreads like herpes.

 

[Messi]

I refuse to believe that the same Dan Slott writes Silver Surfer as the one that writes Spider-Man. Silver Surfer is actually genuinely funny.

 

[ThyMusicMan]

I got a couple random books last week at my LCS.

Batman '66: The Lost Episode #1
Great Alex Ross cover!

Madman In Your Face 3D Special
Don't really know anything about Madman,, but it looks cool as hell. Haven't read this one yet plan on it today.
This is NOT me (found on internet), but Im assuming I will feel pretty dorky reading this.
