Just throwing this out there, but I think the Marvel Universe is particularly well-suited to a Smash Bros. clone.
I really like the Detective Comics one. Only one I really dont like so far is the Green Lantern one.
This one is adorable

Just finished Hawkguy 21. That last page.
Used to be the best page ever with that layout was "So live." from Sandman.

Oof. Pro tip: don't read Hawkguy 21 and Sandman 49 in one sitting.
Why not? What happens? Did you black out?
Edit:
49-21 = 28. 28 divided by 3 = 9.3 repeating. 9.3 repeating divided by 3 is 3.1. Rounding up 3.1 = 3. Half-Life 3 confirmed.
Fantastic page. Can't wait to see how it all ends. Not sure how I feel about a new team on the book. I was bummed when Wonder Woman changed teams but this will be a thousand times worse. Wonder what Aja will do next.
Wouldn't you be happy if someone gave you a super awesome Lazer.
Seeing the new Hawkeye art makes me realize how much Aja suits Hawkeye. Gonna miss his work on the book.

You've never read The Sandman?
Incidentally, I read the Season of Mists arc yesterday. Great, great stuff.
It's not understandable even if you've read Sandman before :lol:
But it's really beautiful

They're two of the most heartbreaking comics ever published.

Most important fact about DCs June launch.

That's just a Fraction of the changes we're making around ComicsGAF. We gonna start Bendising the rules around here. Like, no more of those redneck Hickmans around here anymore. If one of them shows up, I'll be like "BURNHAM AT THE STAKE!"
Ajajajajaja
Damn, that is a surprise. Let's guess what is 2.99.
Starfire
Batmite
We are Robin
Harley/Pee Gee has 3.99 written all over it.

Incredible. More excited for this relaunch than Secret Wars by far.
No, another void that needs to be filled. But I am very interested in it.
Why is there Groot and the animal from The Last Guardian? :O ;-)
Well Ray Fawkes you too. RAY FAWKES ALL OF YOU. I'm gonna Greg Pak my bags and get out of this Dennis Hopeless thread.

Great news!
Marvel's response will likely to be launching more of their books at $4.99.
The unfortunate thing is that there is going to be a lot of number fuckery when it comes to those $4.99 titles. Marvel can argue that the price point is successful due to associating it with a heavily marketed Star Wars book that broke sales numbers, then they can say that if the book stays steady for the next few issues that if those people stick around at $3.99 they would be willing to pay $5 for it.
I believe it's still cheaper than those DC combo packs, but I am still unhappy with that price point.
Edit: before anyone makes the argument that $5 is great and some kind of magic number that will save the industry is delusional. The only people that will see that extra buck are Marvel and Disney. Not the creators. It's just corporate pocket lining and reader exploitation.

Anyone getting The Metabarons reprint releasing this month? I think I'll get that and The Technopriests Supreme Collection.
And Final Incal is releasing in March.

So I read Dark Prelude last night. I haven't read Dark Cybertron yet, but yeah, that felt less like a prelude and more of a "crap, let's collect this random one shots somehow!" I guess there was a vague theme of the Titans and some rough linking between some of them. Fortunately they were still good, with the MTMTE ones being the best of the bunch easily and unsurprisingly. This got me wondering: are there other "spotlight" issues in the current run collected elsewhere/sitting uncollected? Also, should I grab Windblade?
Oh, and I just want to say how bizarre it feels to notice that pretty much anything starring Optimus/Orion Pax has pretty much been the low point of the rebooted stuff. Like, there's been some okay ones, but maybe it's just something about his status as the big serious hero guy that just kind of sucks the excitement out of anything he appears in, I don't know.

I am still betting that she is about to return to Daredevil.
(I hope they release a Omnibus of her work on DD. As far as I heard, this stuff is good)
I dont get it
Really now... I must listen. Does she mention Catwoman.
I will die laughing if she takes over Daredevil.
Why? Her run is considered a classic.
Other writers had big problems with different characters in the past, too, and are still delivering great stuff.

Given how awful you all say she is this would be upsetting.
Sure. If it's good then it's good. But her Daredevil is a long time ago and her recent output has been questionable at best. Katana, Green Arrow, Catwoman and Klarion is gone now too.
Just finished Daredevil OHC Vol 2. That
arc was just incredible. Absolutely loved it.
Quick question about the ending:
Anyways, think I'm going to finally start the Alias omnibus next.
Coyote
Quick question about the ending:
Was Spider-Man SpOck in that last panel when Kirsten asks him for help and he says that he'll "crush him"? Or was that just Spider-Man being funny?
Anyways, think I'm going to finally start the Alias omnibus next.
SpOck

Okay, cool. That's what I figured, but I wasn't exactly sure if the timeline was right for that.
That was a pretty hilarious scene.
Lol. I still need to see that movie.

You should save it to listen to with a group. Like an Ann Nocenti audio club.
Legit laughed at this. I thought you were posting actual news lol

If true then it also means that it will likely be a standalone, "ambiguous continuity" book like Superman Unchained.
