It's not always front and centre at mainstream comic shops, but it is distributed by Diamond so you could always request it if you were so inclined. I bet you'd have a lot of fun with it, Tim.
It looks like Amazon has them in Kindle edition for like $5. Totally gonna check that out.

Yes! Is what I would say if it was 2001, in high school and still considering my prospects.

Yea. The Hell On Earth phase of BPRD will eventually get similar omnibus treatment but not unitl Hell On Earth is totally done and has been on the market for a bit.

Yeah, pretty much all figures are welcome. There just happen to be tons more figures coming out based on anime and video games.

I think Korupt made his Harley quinn thread just to see how long it would take me to respond.
Heh, I knew you would be in their quick. I imagine you were browsing the forum and your eyes lit up.
Fatale #20: These last few issues have been great, i semi-regret this being the last issue i pre-ordered. Still don't like the pacing of the story unravel. 9/10
Superior Spidey #26: Eh, about what i expected, nothing really stood out. Mediocre brawl, more
and clueless Avengers. I did like Otto's
6/10
She-Hulk #1: The art did wear on me in parts, and i also compared the digital copy to the print and the colors really pop on my ipad 3 compared to paper tree 3. Plotting was decent, some fun parts, I like
I'm not really sold on the series though, but i'll order the next couple issues. 7/10

Parker whining
bail out of the Avengers building when he quit, that was a fun moment.

This is awesome.
Maaaaaaaan. Just finished the first Fraction Iron Man omnibus. The last issue of the last arc barely had any of the payoff in it. But I didn't really enjoy it enough to want to buy the next omnibus (at least, I don't want to buy it more than other things that are on my list of things to buy). So many unanswered questions. Haha
And I don't want to read spoilers either, since I figure I'll probably want to read the rest eventually.
Also, why did the colorist have to ruin Larroca's perfectly competent pencils? I really can't stand that realistic style of coloring. There's no art to it at all.
I'm really excited though. Tomorrow I'm planning to start Miller's Life and Times of Martha Washington.

Pretty awesome. I particularly like the grenades.

That's Batman Eternal art, right? Between Stephanie Brown, Harper Row, and Kingpin Catwoman, how am I to resist?

I don't understand why there can't be 2 bat girls. I mean when GL and Batman books were selling at their peak there were a gazillion lanterns and an international army of batmen.
Man, that's all good shit. All so, so good.
Apparently she's going to be a big part of Eternal. According to the preview in the last Batman anyway.
I am willing to bet money that she will somehow remember the pre-flashpoint universe.
Or is that wistful thinking?
Would also be a good time to bring back Wally. Or Dona. Just saying...
I like Harper, but I really do not see a future for her. Especially since there are plenty of other neglected/not-yet-reintroduced Bat characters..
Wishful thinking. The old universe is gone. Time to let it go.
Wally is already coming back. No word on Donna.
Eternal is going to be make or break for Harper. If Synder can't sell people on the character there, she's done once Snyder leaves.

Real wishful, she probably doesn't even remember Tim Drake.
As long as Snyder is writing Batman, Harper is here to stay most likely.

Time will tell. I'm not going to avoid a book with characters I like just because one of them might not have a future with the company.
It's one of those great runs you have to read from the start. It's a really fun run, grab the whole thing if you can before you jump in.

It's got that whole grandiose feel that Hickman just brings to his books not to mention he comes up with some of the best ominous phrases
All hope lies in Doom

I think I'm going to go all in then. He'll boy libraries and Brad fours. Finish my invincible ultimate collections and Scott pilgrim. Maybe 100 bullets or something too
Man that was such a great run, there were a bunch of great lines. I love how it ended most of all.

Harper is already a more interesting character than Stephanie could ever hope to be.

You should know that if you haven't read Marvel's Cosmic stuff from the 00s that Hickman's FF run basically spoils and concludes several storylines from that stuff (Annihilation, War of Kings, etc.)
Ah shit really? I'm reading those right now.

Rat Queens and Five Weapons are it for me, but i'm not caught up on either yet so i can go another week without buying any comics, thank god. Though One Hit Wonder sounds pretty neat. Superman: Lois Lane too, but I didn't really care for the last time Dan Jurguens drew a $5 Lois Lane story (it was an annual, but it was also by Lobdell, so).

Weekly yes, black and white, no.

Don't think so. It's a weekly, $2.99 Batman book ala Amazing Spidey a few years back. If the preview in Batman #28 is anything to go by, I think I'll like it.

Just got to the last page of #12 in Avengers Arena. WAT. I don't even. What does it even mean?! I would love if
This book gives you sadistic thoughts.
everyone who had died so far wasn't dead, and Arcade let the remaining survivors chose between each other one person to have back,basically an inverse of the choice he made them make in issue 1. Pick one to live or they all die anyway. Then kill all the returnees for real haha. It would be the ultimate play off of the nature expectation that they're going to have a way to worm out of all these deaths. Prove the reader right....then kill them all for real haha.
If you're getting Scott Pilgrim, check out the new color versions. Nathan Fairbairn did amazing work as the colorist and they are super nice hardcovers.
