Baby, baby, baby, can't you stay with me tonight?
Oh, baby, baby, baby, don't my kisses please you right?
You were so hard to find
The beautiful ones, they hurt you every time


and on the Batgirl front, every time I see the art I'm like "yes nigga...yes"

Holy shit Walking Dead has literally been one high note after another. This book is beyond back on track and I am legitamately waiting for the next issue with anticipation.
 

Kipp

but I am taking tiny steps forward
I just haven't found the right Mountain Goats quote yet.

I knew you were a guy with impeccable taste, ElNarez.

Breath rising and falling
Expansion contraction
Why'd you tell me this?
Were you looking for my reaction?


Close. I think I can do better though.
Edit: Still searching. I CAN DO THIS. I won't let all two Mountain Goats fans in this thread down. This means too much.

Second edit: Okay, maybe rather than anger, the lyrics should just represent full on hopelessness.
We'll just go with the full lyrics of In Corolla.

Okay, last one. Maybe angry lyrics are more appropriate after all:

This is just a flesh wound
And it will clear up any day.
But the present I got planned for you pricks
Is gonna be a little harder to fix.
...
This is just a paper cut
And it will scab over just you wait.
But the cuts that I'll shortly begin dealing out
Are gonna give you something to cry about.


Okay. I'm done.
Surprisingly couldn't find any that were quite right. I guess I need more than 500 songs to pick from. New album needs to come out already.
 
Bitch Planet was awesome. I don't think it was quite the 10/10 book that Newsarama says it was, but it was very enjoyable. It's definitely got a feminist lean to it, but that's not a bad thing. It's social commentary in comic form.

I imagine girly hijinks percentage is fairly low?

Who helped KCD write Bitch Planet? It has a central idea and the execution makes sense so far. If this shit doesn't fall apart after issue 5 I'm definitely in.

Edit: Man, my Rick Grimes statue is 81/1500. That's pretty ridiculous.

Well, Marvel did it.

In today's Axis,
Scarlet Witch finds out that Magneto is in fact not the father of herself and Quicksilver, making way for them to actually be Inhumans in time for Avengers 2.

If you want to get technical them being mutants in the first place was a retcon.

Just read ASM today and lol
who didn't see Cosmic Spidey's death coming?

It was definitely happening; though since he said he'd be willing to go outside of his universe if even 1 Spidey makes a difference, I figured it'd be that way (without his cosmic powers).
I didn't expect Solus to be a cosmic level guy.

Did anybody post the link to CBRs second round of top 50 comic book artists?

40 Joe Kubert
39 Barry Windsor Smith
38 Chris Bachalo
37 Jim Aparo
36 Todd McFarlane
35 Gene Colan
34 Greg Capullo
33 David Aja
32 Dave Gibbons
31 Fiona Staples

In my opinion McFarlane work doesn't make him a top 50 artist. I think he was like a bad fashion everybody was into at the time. He certainly isn't a better artist than Windsor Smith.

I think JC was right. Dont think Marcos Martin is gonna make the list

Finished Guardians of the Galaxy....i'm split.
As a team up movie, the cast was fantastic. There were many heartfelt moments and the characters played off each other well. Where Marvel movies tend to fail is the overall plot behind it and Guardians was no different. Ronan and Gamora's sister as a combo were just awfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffful wow why did this have to be that bad? Ronan was a scrawny petulant thing who didn't have a single memorable line, the whole concept of Ronan killing Drax's parents so Drax wants after him, Ronan working for Thanos, Ronan vs Novas, Ronan getting the gem and turning on Thanos.....everything feels like Ronan doesn't belong in the movie and it should be about Thanos but they didn't want to "spoil" using Thanos in the Guardians movie so they half-assed the entire backdrop and it feels entirely contrived.
So yeah.....random score of feelings/10.
