Hellcat might stay because there are even worst sales. Starbrand's book is doing worse along with Howling Commandos.
Being in that company is little comfort I'm sure.

I admit, the Sorrentino art is the biggest draw for Old Man Logan. I've also been enjoying Hulk. Cho's art is lovely as always, and the Harley Quinn rip-off (
that is actually better than Harley Quinn

It was my first exposure to Sorrentino, that I know of. I really did love the art of the first OML issue. I'll give it an arc to grab me, though the plot is not the type of thing I'm usually into. And, yeah, Hulk kind of hovers in my bubble but then I read it and just love it. Amadeus is a lovable character. He makes me chuckle. Not sure I'd be into it if the artist changed, though. Who is the Harley Quinn rip-ff? Deadpool?

Read through all of Nameless.
Glad I waited for it to finish before reading, but it was really good. Burnham's art was incredible and he did some truly disturbing work here. Not really into gory stuff but it suited the whole tone and story that Morrison made. Probably some of the most haunting stuff I've seen in a comic over the last year, just some really gross imagery.
Story itself was incredibly fascinating to follow as well. The various layers and mysteries being revealed throughout were very well told. I liked how non-linear the story was in general, but I can see it being kind of confusing month to month. Not really sure what to make of the ending myself. I normally don't think Morrison's stuff is very difficult to follow but this one got me at the end. Besides that it was pretty easy to follow.
Definitely grabbing the hardcover for this. Also need to get Annihilator so I'll probably just get em together. Good comic.

Let her be in more than two issues before you make some statements you might regret later.

What is with the art in Ringside? Seriously I am wondering.
It does tho...
There is a high concentration of girly hijinx characters in the book, it could never betray you, the first two issues need more Leah. I don't like how the story flows, it reads like it's too invested in one-off flashes of things that occurred on the wall in the Abigail journal entries, when
McCoy got turned into weird whatever mutation thing

oh man, you should definitely check out the New 52 I, Vampire series, then. Sorrentino was on that shit the whole way through. Really great stuff.

Characters don't act in a hijinksy way in that book. I loved that book.
Messi Alert!
Olivia Wilde is going to be on Colbert Late Show tuesday night. Same day Trump wins New Hampshire's primary. Coincidence?
edit: Siege is probably my favorite SW tie-in so far that i've read, but i haven't really liked any of them. Solid Random 6ish, i think i'm going to reread issue #1 and 2 again. So far i've read two Civil Wars, two Thors, all of Old Man Logan and Marvel Zombies. Weirdworld will be next on MU.

Is the Truth arc in Superman an event or separate Superman stories all tied to everyone knowing his identity? I'm thinking of buying the first volume of Gene's Superman.

Such an underrated title. Loved every issue.

I think the story stumbled a bit toward the end, but I chalk that up to the impending cancellation and the rush for a conclusion.

Doctor Strange is starting to remind me of Aaron's Godbomb arc in Thor. It's delightfully weird.

It's the perfect Doctor Strange story. And the art makes it so much more enjoyable. Bachalo was the perfect artist for this book.

#CancelThemBoth
I want Blade.
Don't get me wrong, I liked Moon Girl for the first couple issues, but this shit is wearing thin, now.
I think it's already off, have not heard jaackshit despite people saying they are working on it.
i'm a little iffy on stories where an all powerful enemy is going around killing people, Godbomb from Aaron, then Spiderverse, and now Doctor Strange. I need to read issue #4 and 5 in my stack.
It all reminds me of Roman Reigns, if he's not superman punching two people standing next to each other how do we know he's strong?

It's probably best to think of it as an event. The storylines are technically seperate, but there's an order to them and they converge to the same place.
Sadly. Woulda been a lot better if Pak had been free to execute on the stuff he was setting up in AC early on.

Fine with me. Reeder and Montclare can go back to doing Rocket Girl!
Hey same here, I thought I was the only one.
By the end of the third issue I realized nothing's happening and nothing was going to happen.

Midnighter #9
As always, super good issue. The art is just super on point. Always is, since I can always trust Midnighter to deliver me good fights. Have yet to encounter an issue I didn't enjoy.

This is one of my favorite covers of all time:
Forget the legs. I'm trying to figure out what is wrong with Spidey's ass.

Aw, Moon Girl/Devil Dinosaur is super cute. Or, rather: fierce! That word aptly describes the titular characters Lunella and DD.
Also, my girlfriend would be crushed if this were to be cancelled.

Honestly, you'd probably best prepare her now. It's kind of inevitable.

I'm sorry, I must be getting too used to Image comics where the plot actually moves forward.
