Kamala for best Marvel.

That or Norrin and Dawn. Both titles are acceptable for best Marvel.

Oh, and MODOK is best. Remember when MODOK became an awesome and lovable hero?

 

[Boogiepop]

I don't recall there being any huge cliffhangers between parts, you should be ok just getting one collection at a time.

Awesome, thanks! Went ahead and placed it. I'm sure I'll end up liking it and wanting more since people in here are fond of it and I'm not usually that hard to please, but I felt like being cautious/reasonable since I was placing a decent sized order outside of that anyway.

 

[PsychBat!]

YES YES YES!!!

 

[Zombine]

Anyone here willing to throw some cash at my kickstarter? It for a set of vinyl figures called Plane Boys: Husbandos In The Sky

 

[whatsinaname]

I am going to stick to my no-more-marvel-omnibuses rule and not order Uncanny Avengers.

Only if they are based on German WWII fighter planes.

 

[Kipp]

Wooo. IST order with the Sleeper omnibus and PunkRockPaperScissors arrived!

 

[Sibersk Esto]

YES YES YES!!!

[Sou Da]

Is that comic book thread about Superman in OT?

 

[The Right Deal]

Oh good, there's also a comic book thread inspired by another one, it's like a waking nightmare.

lol, I know right?

I'm not buying any omnibuses until Marvel tells me what is still canon and what isn't Post-Secret Wars

 

[Kipp]

For real. If stuff like Fraction's Hawkeye and Wilson's Ms. Marvel isn't canon after Secret Wars, what's even the point? Just a waste of time.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Hey GAMEPROFF, you live in Germany, right? Where do you get your comix from?

Jep, I am from Germany Primary Amazon, I am a Tradewaiter. When I need a new Floppy, I order from Comicroom Hamburg, its a nice little Mailorder with a great service. Shipping always take quiete a bit, bit they are insanely cheap (1$ = 1€). When it comes to older Issues, I use Ebay and shops from America and England. Shipping is often higher than the books, but most the time its not a problem.
Also, I use cheap-comics.com and Archonia, when I need stuff that isnt avaiable anywhere else.

I beginning to think that you take this reboot/canon/secret wars stuff a little bit to serious.... Just enjoy the books, in a couple of years everything is back to normal anyway...

 

[Rhaknar]

do you also not watch movies because the sequels are bad? or read books? or play games?

 

[GrandHarrier]

I don't think you guys should get hung up on "what matters" as far as books and continuity. If the story is good, then the story is good, and "what matters" one day will change tomorrow. If your favorite story is suddenly out of continuity are you going to throw your trade of it away? Every story that is told is canon for the moment in time in which that story existed.

 

[fauxtrot]

Guys, why are girls so confusing? More like, why am I so bad at reading signals...

 

[curb]

To me that kinda seems like refusing to watch Star Wars because you know Darth Vader

Yep, this guy gets it. I'm pretty sure Kipp was just joking though.

Thank god that you made a spoiler, we have still people here who have yet to see Star Wars

 

[choaffable]

it's been a long time of people asking, comixology needs to find a way to hide books from your cloud listing. I want more organizational options, but the first thing needs to be a way to remove all the dumb trial books i have in my list that i have to keep scrolling past.

You can. Every comic listed has an archive link under the read button. Clicking on that puts that comic into the archive and out of your cloud listing.

 

[Spike Spiegel]

Kamala will go grimdark for Secret Wars, having seen the harrowing costs of war with her own eyes, then shrug it off the second she gets back because it turns out she was pretending to be grimdark the whole time. Like LARPing.

 

[The Right Deal]

Just because the Star Wars EU was erased doesn't mean the Heir to the Empire books aren't damn good and worth reading for the quality alone, same thing will apply to Marvel.

Spoiler

Except I can't think of any current Marvel books as good as Zahn's.

 

[fauxtrot]

Ha, I wish I could tell you man.

I'm 30 years old, man... shouldn't it have gotten easier by now? I guess maybe if I actually dated women my own age things would be more straightforward.

 

[Drayco21]

What the....

Is that one of the

from Guardians 3000?

Excited that the same creative team is staying on-board for this.

 

[curb]

And for some reason, it surprises me every single time I see a post from someone who hasn't seen those movies.

How exactly does one get a comic graded? Apparently that issue of X-Factor #6 (first appearance of Apocalypse) I have is worth a bit more than the $4 I paid for it 20+ years ago. My copy isn't in perfect condition by any means, but it's in good condition at the least. Odds are it'll go back in the basement and I'll forget I own it again, but it'd be nice to know in case I ever did want to sell it.

I tried looking into this once but didn't have much luck. I guess you can send your book to the company that does it, but the impression I got was that it was rather costly itself.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Me, too. Star Wars is the biggest entertainment thing in history of mankind, its even bigger than Harley Quin.

Yo, how young are you goin' here?

29.

why do you assume hes going for younger? :3

 

[The Right Deal]

Because anyone over 30 has a curfew at their retirement home and that's too hard to work around?

 

[ReAxion]

Coulson is simultaneously a genius strategist and suffering an existential crisis in two different books. It's fine.

At least there's sick LAN parties at the retirement home, right? RIGHT?

Fauxtrot seems cool as hell, so either older or younger, it's all good.

i didn't know that, but apparently it's only for the website and doesn't work on the ios app. Am i missing something?

I was afraid of rejection all throughout high school and college, so even though I'm old enough to not really give a fuck anymore, I don't have the years of experience I should when it comes to this kind of stuff.

She's 24... I generally date girls 23 - 27. I've gone a little younger than that before, but then they don't get my jokes because my references are too ancient.

Ah, figures it's a pain in the ass. Maybe I'll see if one of the shops near my house wants to buy it.

She's a friend of my younger brother, and he gave me the go ahead since I went out with a group of his friends for his birthday and met her then. The thing that sucks is I can tell she's interested, but he's told her certain things about me that I usually wouldn't tell someone I wanted to date right away (because it usually scares them off)... so now I can't tell if what I'm perceiving as hesitance on her part is standard nervousness/"maybe he doesn't really like me" stuff that most people with average self-esteem feel or if it's "this guy is cute but he's got baggage and I don't know if I want to deal with that".
