COMICS! |OT| December 2014. Alas, reading this thread backwards simply doesn't work.

Oh wow that looks like a photograph! How do people draw like that?

Yeah its pretty sick,, instantly became one of my favorite covers..
And it also has the entire issue panel for panel but just the pencils, no word bubbles or anything in the back half of the book. This was my favorite part of the book.
My fucking god.. The penciling is amazing. The coloring doesn't even do it justice.

Poor Lobo, the hell has DC done to you?

I've said it once and I'll say it again: every issue of Lobo where he's not being an over-the-top parody of a Mark Millar protagonist, which is the thing that has come to replace the hyperviolent Wolverine-Punisher-X-Force-Whatever of the 90s is a waste of ink and paper. But I still like that Lobo is devilishly handsome now.

José Luis García-López, on top of having an incredible name, is still a fantastic artist at 66 years old. I guess he's mostly retired now, but I love any bit of work he still does. They're reprinting some of his old work later this year(Deadman, Twilight, Cinder and Ashe), so look out for that. We're living in a rediscovery José Luis García-López age!

Nice,, thanks, I'm making myself a note now. Those 66 year old hands are wonderful. lol

Best living comics guy IMO.

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.

It's time for Girly Hijinks Gaf to mobilize and move to the community threads. To become the greatest community thread ever created.

I'd be so down for a Girly Hijinks OT. It would be nice if it wasn't -just- comics, but also extends out to badass women in other media.

Not only he looks like he stumbled straight out of YA novel, they also downraged his power levels. I saw a panel where Supergirl owned him. Damn Supergirl...poor Lobo.

And yet somehow he manages to kill the "fake"/original Lobo (completely off panel of course because fuck you.)

Oh man this thread is so funny! :D 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?

Opposite of Watchmen?


Nextwave Agents of Hate.

Nextwave Agents of Hate.

I was gonna say Darwyn Cooke's The New Frontier, but that is a great recommendation too.

In other news, I was busy with family stuff all weekend and forgot to vote! It would have been Pax at #1 (finally got my comics!) with Batgirl and Harley trailing behind.

Also, I'm glad I wasn't here for the last few pages... ya dirty dogs.

I finished Assassin's Creed Unity's main storyline and traded it in towards that hot Best Buy Wii U deal to get Smash Brothers and Tropical Freeze. I think I made the right choice.


Also I joined the ComicGAF Strangers in Paradise book club.

As a contribution to the last few pages, I bought five volumes of Empowered in the Dark Horse digital sale, and pre-ordered Sex Criminals vol 2 and Sunstone.

How was the Black Friday sale @ Comixology? I totally missed it, but the Cyber Monday sale wasn't any better than any of the other sales they've had in the past... I was kinda hoping for 49 cent comics rather than the standard 99 cents.

They are still ongoing, but most of them end today.

didn't buy a single book, looking at darkhorse now but i'm struggling to come up with the minimum $20 when all i want are the first five issues of Buffy season 10 and Serenity Leaves on the Wind six issues.

Stjepan Šeji&#263;’s Sunstone Is Top Cow’s Highest Ever Ordered Graphic Novel

Y'all better hope he wraps up Sunstone before one of the Big 2 swoops him up for good!

He deserves every bit of success he gets from this book. It warms my heart to see this though. I can't imagine a scenario where he doesn't want to finish this even if one of the big two pick him up. It's been his side project for quite a while.

Wow. The shiniez page has over 10 million views and 67,000 watchers.
 
You guys already have FigureGAF.


As a lurker of figuregaf, figuregaf is basically anime statue GAF.

girly hijinks is much more sophisticated than that.



semi - related, it turns out I accidentally have more Supergirl figures/merch than I should.

Wonder Woman too but that one can be explained by my wife really liking wonder woman

How much Harley Quinn merchandise is too much Harley Quinn merchandise?

Asking for a friend.

Do you have to throw out older Harley Quinn merchandise to make room for the new Harley merchandise?

If the answer is no, you're in the clear. Who needs a bed or work clothes? Make room for more Harley!

What kind of monster throws out anything with Harley on it?
 

Kipp

but I am taking tiny steps forward
Also I joined the ComicGAF Strangers in Paradise book club.

Amazing. How many people have ordered it now? Like, six? This could be a legitimate book club if we actually read it at the same time.

maybe the $20 min spend for the dark horse digital sale meant overall on your account? I didn't have to spend $20 this time to get the discount, ended up with:

Buffy Season 10 #1-5 bundle
Aliens: Nightmare something or other
Serenity Leaves on the Wind 1-6 bundle

all for $10.40 after the additional 10% off code. Good times for the best app on the market.

If you enjoy it, who cares? Just don't go overboard, or you'll scare away any women you invite into your home
for sex
. I have a shit-ton of waifu figures, but I keep it limited to one room of the house.

If you guys actually get a book club set up, I'll buy it to be in on the fun... I know I'll end up picking it up at some point anway.

What date number is it typically before you unlock that room and hope that they can cope with your... hobby?

How many dates in is it OK to ask your date to dress up as classic Harley?

4? I feel like 4 is a good number

Preferably? Never.

Realistically, if you're serious about a woman, it has to be brought up on date #3 or 4. You wanna get that out in the open asap. If she's the kind to get freaked over dumb shit like that, best to find out sooner than later when you really start getting attached.
