Holy crap, Scarlet #6 actually came out today. And it was glorious.

 

[Captain N]

i should mention that injustice is 99 cents!

yup. Digital only and amazing. Love this series and is getting my hype up for Injustice.

Saw it but didn't grab it. Can't remember how long it has been.

Any maybe Powers Bureau will be out next week! Brilliant issue five, someday, maybe soon.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Over a year, I know that much. Apparently Bendis is claiming current events at the time made he and Maleev feel a bit too awkward about carrying on with it. What with Occupy Wall Street, the revolution in Egypt and all that.

Yeah, my comic guy said Diamond charged him for it already, so it should actually be out next week.

What a fucking great issue. I wish Stegman was drawing this exclusively. It's just so fucking beautiful. Letters section was hilarious. Dude's writing essays about how Slott has single-handedly destroyed comics books.

 

[Deleted member 13876]

Immortal Iron Fist maaaaay be the best Marvel run post Morrison New X-men

It's kinda magical, and the way it pretty much creates an entire kung-fu universe/history is one of the best things about superhero comics.

It's a shame Iron Fist couldn't capitalize on that momentum. In Avengers he was just kinda there, getting the White Ranger outfit and Defenders had flashes of IIF but also wasn't quite what it could have been for the character.

 

[LiQuid!]

You guys were NOT kidding about Injustice. Holy shit lol.

I wish they would release an omnibus for that series. It's one of my favorites.

You guys don't even get it. I'm still legit lol'ing irl. Shit was amazing. Next level. I wish there were more, no, you know what, fuck that shit, I wish ALL comics were like Injustice. What the fuck have I been doing with my life up to this point?!

[Satch]

i just bought all 4 issues of injustice and if it's not good im going to commit an injustice on all of you that have been singing its praises

xoxoxoxox

 

[jon bones]

OK so i read Green Arrow: Year One and Green Arrow #17... those two are my only experience with the character so i'm a little confused:

Spoiler

is "the island" from 17 the same one from year one?

I wish they would release an omnibus for that series. It's one of my favorites.

they did, it sold out, and now it's like 3 bills used on ebay.

I just assumed it was *an* island but not specifically *that* island.

 

[furiouslyalex]

Avengers #1 page, should mean a bit more now...

 

[jon bones]

yeah, cap is gonna come to and beat someone's ass.

ah, alright

I had forgotten all about that panel.

Hopefully this means

the Illuminati isn't just going to get away with mind wiping Cap. There's got to be some fallout from that shit, and I want to see it.

 

[Crimsonlink]

Grabbed my comics today.

Marvel

Iron Man: God Slayer

Spoiler

lmao at the alien chick throwing up when she saw Tony's face. I love the new armor and AI but the beginning was rather weak. Very excited about Tony's trial though for "Deicide"

Superior Spider Man #3:

Spoiler

Man seeing Doc as a kid made me have heavy feels. Very good issue. I also like how Peter is exploring Doc's memories. Maybe a set up to return to his body?

DC

Young Romance #1

Spoiler

The best one was Aquaman and Mera the lighthouse story with Superman and WW following it up with their crashed date. Batgirl and Nightwing had the worst part of the comic dates. Nightwing's was rather funny though. Didn't care much about Apollo and Midnighter but that one was funny. Batman and Catwoman's first meeting can't top the sex they had in that one issue.

My thoughts on SM and WW, lol innocent Clark and Diana teasing him sexually, it went right over his head. The issue ended with Clark admitting he is falling in love with WW if not already in love which is gonna cause shockwaves lol. I don't think this is a romance issue for some couples as much as a set up for the future arcs upcoming. Case in point being SM/WW with Superman #19 being referenced along with the coming storm and shit. Also its #1 of Young Romance. Wonder if we have to wait a year for the next one? lol

Superman Earth 1 Volume 2: Still have to read it but I gotta wait for Volume 1 to come in from an order.

 

[Satch]

omg Injustice is really good

i need more

It just seemed a bit...much for my poor sensitive taste. Still, execution is everything, and far be it for me to judge based on some out of context spoilers.

 

[Troll]

So GAF you guys seem to hate Fearless Defenders, right? Then I look on IGN and they throw a 9.0 at it. lol.

 

[Supermanisdead]

It's not terrible. Just disappointing in how generic the whole thing was. I don't care though. I will keep buying to support Misty Knight and Dani Moonstar.

 

[ReiGun]

Done. Good thing these 99 cent dealies are quick reads.

Superman taking care of business. Hold dat shit, Batman.

Spoiler

Lol at Green Arrow being the only one to mention how ridiculous it was to call in the entire League for a missing person. Everyone else jumped right on it.

This game has some ugly as fuck designs.

 

[Vyer]

shit, i didnt even realize there was going to be more injustice.

 

[Captain N]

On the Arrow TV show Ollie kills a lot of people. Like a lot of them. I think he killed at least 25 or more guys this last episode alone. Does he kill that much in the comics too?

 

[akira28]

Yeah Injustice is lame. Sorry. The Joker trick was too predictable, so instead of a reveal, it was like hearing a bad pun. Painful. And that pain leads to anger, fear, blah blah blah Dark Side, so lets all see how Batman gets us out of this, this time.

They're one single pair of pants. A unit. Not shorts over a unitard. Damn you.

Doc Ock accessing Peter's memories to fap to MJ was the realest moment in comics that I never want to see again.

Wait, what?

He didn't literally fap, but yeah he kinda reached back into the spank bank to live vicariously thru PP.

 

[akira28]

Wait, what?

Spoiler

Notice how she shuts him down, day after day, then the last night, he tries the I'm SpiderMan, trick, taking her webslinging, which traditionally leads to "C'mere Tiger" sexy time, but instead Carlie was there to CB. So he says "I can be with her any time" dot dot dot, and the next morning he's skipping out of the door, whistling, talking about how he can move on without having to obsess over that Mary Jane woman.

and yes, he did literally fap(it was implied)

Doc Octo-Peter O-face version 1 and two. They should do variant covers.

God Damn, New Avengers is amazing and that page from Avengers 1 is epic now. Hickman is a fucking genius.

wtf

Don't listen to him, it's bullshit.

 

[ReiGun]

Not even close. He usually just disables them.

 

[LiQuid!]

Not even close. He usually just disables them.

He killed like 2 dudes in Longbow Hunters and that was supposedly a pretty big deal. Best part about Arrow is how he murders motherfuckers by the droves and then he lectures Huntress about killing like 2 dudes. The show is so shitty but in a totally good (but still really bad) way.

 

[akira28]

I like how DiDio decided that it was DC's fans that were making it weak, and has created diabolical and ingenuous ways to kill us off.


I only hope they realize that it's our familial bond, our connection and our shared experiences of what happened before, that make us strong. Before it's too late...

Also, realizing the Ho-Yay in the relationship between Bats and Joker is being played up 300%. I don't deny the crystallization of their connection, but I like it without the 'look of love' camp. Take it back to Joker being the embodiment of darkness and chaos, forever testing the limits and being kept in check by the embodiment of light and justice.

Don't listen to him, it's bullshit.

Deny all you like. It's all over the google. I'm not the only one who noticed.

 

[LiQuid!]

I would never deny the internet's capability to have the same dumb thought about something but you're collectively reading too much into it. The closest it's implied is Pete saying he wishes Ock would stop "touching his body," but in the panel Ock is in the shower and clearly not touching his dick.

Dude, come the fuck on. It's obvious he jerked it. It's not even up for debate and it's fucking hilarious.

 

[akira28]

oh man, real laughter. I'm "reading into it" alright. You think they'd be that explicit in a book that they still think is a kid's book? They imply, you infer, and then we're cha-cha-ing.

 

[Jedeye Sniv]

Does Hickman's Fantastic Four have to be read alongside FF to follow everything. I picked up the first FF trade along with my floppies today.

Yes. It's the same story.

What a fucking great issue. I wish Stegman was drawing this exclusively. It's just so fucking beautiful. Letters section was hilarious. Dude's writing essays about how Slott has single-handedly destroyed comics books.

I agree, Stegman is great.
