Top of the page: Batman and Robin Eternal continues to be all sorts of fun.

The prodigal son has returned.
Seriously man this place was unbearable without you.
Preach to us about Seaguy, my man.
Preach it
Please
Sejic has probably been hurt a lot by not having any really notable Big 2 work under his belt. Many of the really successful creators for Image earned a lot of attention doing work for Marvel and DC, even those that got their start elsewhere. Yes, he has his interior work on Top Cow books and the very short Rat Queens stay, but none of that gets the attention of the big Image books or the Big 2 books and none of that was as a writer. Sunstone does OK but it's pretty clear that a decent chunk of its readership is not the normal comic buying public so it's not carrying over well to his other work regardless of quality.
What would he even do at Marvel or DC, though?
I guess he could always do a more lighthearted book, maybe guest on A-Force or something.

Stick him on... I dunno, a team book with a generally upbeat tone and some relationship drama. Young Justice, that would work.
I'm not saying there's an obvious book for him from them, just that not having had one certainly hasn't helped his sails in any way.
That might require DC to acknowledge that the Young Justice cartoon existed (unless you're talking about the Peter David comic from the 90s). I don't feel that would go well for them.
That's fair enough.

Yo have Sejic do the art in a Wonder Woman book. OK?
Okay, after it came out that Just Cause 3 on PS4 has framerate issues, I can't decide whether or not to pick up my pre-order. I'll leave it to ComicGAF to decide.

I decided not to.
Advise against.

I changed my mind about it. That always online stuff they put in is infuriating just to watch, let alone deal with in-game. Shame, because I really enjoyed Mad Max. I think I'll wait for a Steam sale.
Well this is the future I have been dreading.

Fuck sake
Mad Max was a lot of fun. This one, I'm not so optimistic about. Even gameplay things like having to use in-game currency for unlocks instead of chaos.
That Platinum Thread reminded me that I wanted to dive into Turtle Comics.
Back then in August.
And I assume you can buy this in-game currency for a low, low price? Urgh.

Just jump on in, the IDW stuff is awesome! (And I'm totally secretly hoping that Platinum stuff somehow miraculously draws from it...)
Also, I have read some Valiant for the first time. Bloodshot volume 1 was decent, nothing mindblowing and the jokes jammed in there were pretty forced, but it was solid enough that I enjoyed it. Shadowman volume 1 on the other hand, was... not good. Just thoroughly uninteresting. I still do have first volumes of Quantum & Woody and Archer & Armstrong to try, though. What's the layout of how many trades there are in the Valiant universe and what's recommended, again?

(Valiant really cocked up collecting Unity and XO there IMO. It's a narrative crossover, and neither book makes sense without the other, and you have to flip back and forth between the trades too).

goddamn this untranslated español is testing the limits my basic ass spanish
Luckily its drawn by Marcos Martin so you can still get a feel for what's happening just through his grasp of visual storytelling.
Good comic, Macros Martin is the star of course. The last 12 or so pages are particulary good,with a standout time lapse sequence where the middle time of day gets closer as the two characters we've been following get closer in proximity. And then of course the BKV hook ending that that gives a new(old) meaning to "aliens".
Man, I dont dare to post this in any official thread, but its really hard for me to watch that 50 second footage of Batman Vs Superman and dont laugh, because it looks so ridicolus dark and serious, almost like someone wanted to make a parody of Miller Batman book.
I am aware, that those soldiers most likely make sense in the movie and why Supes looks like Batman stole him the last donut, but boy, this scene is laughable.
And I hate that I cant post this outside of this community without getting a war started.
But Bats in the trenchcoat looked cool. Reminded me of that Damian Batman Books.
I am more interested in the Indie-Stuff, everything that came later is a little bit hard to keep track for me.
I do like the classic indie stuff collected in the Ultimate Editions, though it's definitely VERY indie and probably not for everyone.
If it's hard keeping track of the later stuff, IDW is great and self contained in continuity (IE it pulls from other stuff, but you absolutely don't need to know anything going in), and this collection line (with one out and another coming in like February) should be a nice way to have everything that keeps it simple, so you don't have to worry where non-numbered trades slot in or anything.
(But yeah, I really, really love me some TMNT, haha!)
And thanks to everyone else on the Valiant talk. Glad to hear the Shadowman is absolutely not indicative of the quality of the line. I'm sure I'll keep pecking at it bit by bit, maybe grab a series here and another there as I catch up.
Cho is the Hulk? When did this happen? Why?
By the looks of it, I wouldn't be surprised if it was both.One of two possibilities:
Refocusing to target a younger audience and promote diversity
Or because somebody somewhere was like "I really want to see the Hulk with the Worst Haircut. How do we facilitate that?"
