i turned that on...the acting...oh the acting.

None of that is...true! You're from a place called Silent Hill!

 

[anaron]

Please, someone has to read Rachel Rising with me. It's too good.

I still don't understand how it hasn't blown up yet. It's absolutely amazing

 

[Tyrant Rave]

NexusCell: if you haven't already, try out Uncanny X-Force by Rick Remender and its sequel series, Uncanny Avengers! They're excellent.

 

[Owzers]

Another one on the team! I think Rafa digs it as well.

 

[Neoxon]

Yeah the problem is two of there main Avengers writers obviously hate his guts, several of there work horse writers don't like him either. He has a tough road ahead if they don't change the way they approach him.

This is why I think they'll use Secret Wars to revive Richard,

Spoiler

or more specifically least get him out of the Cancerverse

. They'll probably let Sam exist in the All-New Marvel initiative, but given the writers that hate Kid Nova, they'd probably want to at least offer an alternative.

LOL good god wtf has happened since I've been gone.

Avengers is better, and I'm the biggest X fanboy around here, that's how good it is

 

[evilpigking]

I feel like there was a twitter tag awhile back by a bunch of authors espousing Rachel Rising and telling people to go buy the tpbs. I read the first 3 awhile back. Haven't grabbed 4 or 5 yet though.

Any idea if Rachel Rising is going to be wrapping up soon? Or does it seem like it's going to be going for a while still?

 

[Messi]

Psh, man. They ain't even locked.

So what I am reading here is that it is ok in your eyes to put Waifu's in cages as long as they aren't locked?

Comic-GAFs greatest monster.

 

[Owzers]

i've been humble bundle waiting Rachel Rising, or omnibus/digital sale once the series ends. Seemed interesting.

 

[my name is ed]

Man, you brahs Freeza shit a lot more than I do these days.

Haha this reminds me of many scenes in sitcoms where they introduce a character with a nickname and the character responds to the nickname by saying 'it was one time!'

i like rating things.

I legit lol'd at your response. A random score has a good chance at improving my rating hahah

Ordered fantastic four by Hickman vol 1 omnibus. Wanted it before it went out of print. Stoked.

Nice. I recently bought mine too since I was worried it will get super expensive soon.

 

[Kipp]

Yeah, I'm waiting for the inevitable omnibus too. Every single Terry Moore creator-owned series gets an omnibus, so I don't think it's too far-fetched to wait for an omnibus.

I think it will be going for awhile. 24 was the original ending spot but due to interest he decided to extend the series. I think he had other ideas but was unsure how he felt about the series and how it would do when he started.

Hard to say how long though I mean if we look at his other works for comparison...SiP at 109 and Echo at 30. RR is now at 30/31 so could be maybe 48 total or who knows.

 

[GorillaWithDandruff]

Nutin wrong with lovin a littlle dick every now and then.

Isn't that shopped?

And Freeza I finally inspected your waifu cabinet... I see one shelf with Meiko, Hana, and Shinobu?! 10/10 would friend again

Terry More + Twin Peaks + Pretty

Spoiler

Dead

Girls + Salem Witch Trials + Biblical Demons + Terry Moore Dialogue + Steven King

I don't like bad things.

I'm not familiar with Terry Moore's work... <_<

I did read the few issues he did for Runaways and thought that was forgettable.

Since Bii was curious, here's what I'm rolling with right now. 2 detolfs and a billy from IKEA. Crappy cell-phone pics, plus it's night so the lighting isn't so hot.

I'm planning to do some dusting and swap out some figures this weekend (I can't possibly display everything I own all at once, and I don't want this taking over the entire house), so I'll get around to posting some better shots next week.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing. I don't have enough figures to fill up a bookcase right now but good to know/see how many figures can fit on one shelf of a Billy bookcase.

A few random questions for Comics GAF. I am currently debating going pretty much 100% digital with my comics purchases going forward so I have a few random questions:

1. Regarding Marvel Unlimited I could've sworn there used to be a $69.99 / year option, but I am checking out the store and there only seems to be the $99.99 / year option available. Did they get rid of the cheaper option?

2. I am assuming that Comixology and Humble Bundle are the primary online retailers for digital books? Are there any other outlets I should keep an eye on?

3. Is there a site that tracks Comixology or Humble Bundle sales data? Would like to do a little research to see what kind of price drops to expect.

Thanks!

I have no idea at this point. It was going to wrap up issue #24 due to sales and story (Honestly the whole thing reads like a series ended). Then it got a second wind and I'm not sure how long it'll go. I think some of this second wind is because the series was picked up for a TV show option. And it's moved more to Zoe as the focus but it needs more JET!!! And dopey nice morgue guy

It's $69 for Marvel Unlimited sub. The $99 is for Marvel Unlimited Plus, where it gives you some bonus items. Have you used Marvel Unlimited before?

Wanna try it for a month before you commit to $69/year? I have a 1-month gift code if you want it.

 

[Kipp]

The need to re-read Doom Patrol has overcome me.

Thank you, fellas!

I rated it, but wasn't going to bother you and ask for an avatar... But now I kinda really want a Robotman (from Doom Patrol) avatar...

Here's a reference pic. It'd be great if he could have the dented up head (and if the avatar included more than just his head, which I'm not saying it should but if it does, then that vest as well). And if you need more references, pretty much any Richard Case-drawn Robotman will work.

I feel like this is a very uneven deal. Me rating your comic (which I would've happily done even without the avatar offer) for a avatar drawn by you. I feel bad taking advantage of it. Haha. Thank you so much though!

Yup, but I don't think it needs Rachel as a main char. Good series can transition past a character who seems to be central in later stories if they have sufficient quality world building (not really comics related but Twelve Kingdoms comes to mind with the first novel focusing around Youko but later novels not touching upon her or Kou at all).

Also I probably feel like nothing will come out of the tv option with the not great showings of Resurrection and similar sounding content to the broad public.

That needs to be the blurb on the omnibus. It's truth

 

[Messi]

Dammit Kipp, I didn't read SiP. :/

Read the first issue. You will understand the joke he is making.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Dammit Kipp, I didn't read SiP. :/

Well. That's actually a very very earlier spoiler, so he didn't ruin the series for you.

But Kipp is still a terrible person for not using spoiler tags.... And killing the comics industry.

Caught up on Batman Eternal. The more I see of her, the more I can't stand Harper's design. The hair, the face piercings. The "I'm smarter than Tim Drake", It's all too much.
