Steampunk week at DC? The event that launced a thousand cosplays... That Batgirl cover is nice. Shame about that ugly as fuck Batman cover though.

And now, pornography for cowards.


LOL. Is this a still from Vampirella XXX? It looks like they photoshopped the dude out behind her.


LMAO - possibly the least practical woods-assassin costume ever. My first thought was that she is going to get some twigs in some very uncomfortable places. And where is she keeping her swords sheathed? Inside the boobiebandages? Surely that'll cut them--- oooooohhhh, I get you now.


Aw come on, they're so close!! Just an inch forward and then they boobs will be ALL SMUSHY *drooooooooool*

am i doing it rite

also, please tell me that her name is Cindy Rella. PLEASE!

Am I the only one who finds Archive deeply creepy?

Their eyes are telling me 'help us we are in hell, they torture us if we don't smile'.
 
Picked up Batman on a whim. What're the odds that it's
Dick under the cowl and not Bruce
?

I would say slim. The short in Tec 27 called "27" kinda told the story that Bruce Wayne will always be Batman. Also, Dick has had no previous relationship with Harper. Not to say that they didn't form one but I just don't see it. But for the sake of the discussion. What would Bruce be doing then?

Sick with whatever disease is running rampart in Gotham? I dunno. I haven't regularly read Synder Bats since the Owls stuff so I could be way off, but something about the way Bats was written had me thinking it may not be Bruce.

Who will be the first to do a "Guns for cash" style "Books for codes" redemption? Eventually someone will want that sweet digital bonus cash per sale and will need to hook old whales.
 
Looking at the Secret Avengers preview. I've said it before and I'll say it again. We will look at the art style of this era of Aja, Pulido, Lieber, Walsh and that Asian girl that drew four issues of Q and A and a Brian Wood comic, the same way we view Liefeld and the extreme era today. Do you want to be on the right side of history?

It's great art. Don't be a hater brah. Wu is part of that list?
 
I love Marvel's willingness to experiment with interesting artists. I feel like half of DC's group are all in the exact same generic superhero house style in comparison

I can name the first group like that, I forget which of the bottom is suppose to be Tony Daniel or Jim Lee or other 90s Image guys

Burnham, Capullo, and Chiang are cool, though. Those also seem to be some of the most well-respected DC books, shocking enough
 
Oh, can I join in? Let me pick 5 Marvel House style and 5 off the wall DC styles? Is that how it works?

Good job ignoring people like Sorrentino too, brah.

Eh... I think it's pretty fair to say that DC, as a whole, has much less stylistic variety than Marvel, regardless of good artists like Sorrentino.
 
Not too sure about that one man, unless he changed his style a lot lately. This is the guy that did the Tom Morello and Captain Marvel recently right? Or am I confusing with someone else?
Brah's on Rogues Rebellion. I stopped reading Captain Marvel after they stopped trying to even care about who they put on art. Those fashion school graduates.....

Batman 28
Bluebird is great.
Oracle 2.0 being Carrie Kelly would be pretty damn good twist
Never cared much about Stephanie Brown, so her return doesn't do much for me at the moment. We'll see when Batman Eternal starts up where this is heading

@Superior Spider-Man #27
Looks like Otto has never been for being #2.

And the dude has a lot on his plate, and more that he doesn't know about. Spider-Slayers, the Police, wants to marry Anna-Maria, and now, Spider-Island is going to be in ruins. Tough break on top of the Goblin Nation.

Also, in the fan mail section I feel like
they were HEAVILY hinting towards a Spider-Man 2099 comic in the near future. Pretty much seeming like they were outright saying it.

The last bit jas already been confirmed brah.



I wonder who is going to take Power Ring's place. A familiar face?
 
Found the Batman Annual 1 at the LCS. Had to pay $15 for it as it's hard to find.

Now I own Batman 0-28 and Annual 1-2. Also 23.1-4. I now have the full run. I've seen the full run I have sell anywhere from $300-500 on ebay.

Not selling anytime soon though.

I also reread a bunch of favorite comics to reconfirm by Top 10 favorite comics of all-time. Every self-respecting fan has a top 10, right!? Kinda shocked myself I put Why I Hate Saturn up there, but I just adore that book so much. In case you haven't read it, its about this woman Anne Merkel, and about her life being single in NYC, her editors at the magazine she writes for, running out of beer when you're depressed and alone at night, ya know the usual. Then her sister shows up pretty urgently, who's a bit weird and genuinely believes she's from Saturn. Its really 200 pages of Kyle Baker's great facial expressions and hilarious dialog, but that's the beauty of comics. Its just words and pictures in some sequential order, you can literally do anything.
You mention a top 10, but didn't post it, so now I'm interested, let's hear it.

Read Batman 28! Awesome issue, can not wait til Batman Eternal.

Spoilers for those who will not read it.

Harper Row is Batmans new sidekick and she goes by Bluebird.

Selina Kyle is the new kingpin of Gotham City. She says that Batman betrayed her and left her to die.

There is a new Oracle but don't know who she is.

Stephanie Brown who goes by "Spoiler" is being held captive by Selina.

The end.

Are these developments consistent with Forever Evil or is that event going to be ignored by the rest of the Batman books? So confused.

It's hard to tell. This issue takes place like 8 (our time) months after FE ends. So this is a story that would be coming out in Eternal in December.

I sold mine too soon, issues 1-18 for about 120 i think. Ohhhhh well. I thought 19 months was a decent enough time to judge the value of the books.

Like Korupt said, this issue takes place well after FE ends, but would it really be surprising if
Selina gets royally messed up by the Crime Syndicate and Bruce just abandons her like the dbag he is?
