Steve Horstmeyer said they are now forecasting 9-11 inches from Florence southward. Less the more north you go.
Right on. I have all three of the JSA omnibi, but it's been awhile since I read that stuff and after awhile the stories kind of run together in my mind. Poor KoruptData had to deal with me hassling him about an arc in Alan Moore's Swamp Thing run that I thought happened earlyish on but apparently was in the 4th or 5th trade.
Good lord, my bus ride home from work tomorrow will be fun.

Supposed to start tomorrow night and to continue until Saturday morning. I have the funeral on Saturday. I wonder if those get delayed with those type of conditions?
I recommended a bunch of Legion stuff last night to someone, it should be a few pages back.
Oh yeah, I have no idea how that would work

I read this thread daily still. Last 6 months have just been crazy. Yes, Freeza, Hot Toys are my new jam. But also, real life has thrown me a curve ball. Grandparents dying, major family drama that has caused my 60 yo dad to live with me and my wife, bought a bass guitar and I'm teaching myself that. I have also become good friends with my neighbor so we hang out a bunch. Comics have been moved to reading one or two issues before bed. I'm only pulling 20-25 titles now and by the time I'm reading them, the discussion is mostly over.
I was wondering the entire movie.

Volthoom was an astronaut from Earth 3 Amerika (or however Earth 3 do things), and when he got Nekron'd his ring returned to Earth 3 with Volthoom like the genie in the bottle and got Earth 3's Hal Jordan. My beef with the end of his run is more to do with Rise being a McGuffin rather than anything substantial, esp when Volthoom basically one panels them. Or maybe I'm thinking of the Black Lanterns.
Edit: Man I need to continue my JSA now but...Lucifer is going so incredibly well...

How is JSA after Johns' run? Does it still hold up? Because that's the primary reason I got it, but since I've liked everything I've read so far, I might be willing to buy more.
But...wait, where'd the ring come from? Wasn't it the original ring of creation, or something dumb? Because Krona saw creation, and there was a power ring, and then Volthoom was like "What up bitches?" and then everything else followed and it was dumb. Atrocitus put in work, though:
Bless his heart he tried
I lost interest in JSA when Johns left, I can't remember who followed him immediately, but I know James Robinson wrote a couple issues and Marc Guggenhiem wrote it until it ended in 2011 and it wasn't great.
Krona seeing the hand with the ring was probably him seeing the events of GL 20 when Volthoom starts to reshape the universe before Sinestro and Nekron wreck him.

Robinson's a solid writer. He's done good work for me (Earth 2 bae).
And if that's some time travel bullshit...don't you dare...
I like Robinson as well, but I think he only wrote a handful of issues. He was also writing JLA at the time.

Alright. Well, I'll see how the rest of the omnibus goes. See if I want to continue.

I'm just teasing. And I will keep teasing. The same way I tease Messi about pre-ordering the Suicide Squad Harley Quinn statue without seeing any pictures, or Kipp about his Monsterarts obsession. I have dirt on all of you.
Whats wrong?
Well if you want to continue, you still have two more of mostly Johns to go.

Don't let that stop you, most of the books I read the discussion never STARTS.

You have to have a comment on your list.
1. Life is Strange ; [Insert some thoughts about Life is Strange]
Edit that change in, and your entry will be counted.
Not yet, I'll probably get to it this weekend
I may have made a huge mistake on that statue. Who even knows.
Cant wait for your review, I really have no idea what it is
BKatastrophe

Wait really? I thought Johns' run was only in the first omnibus?
Samesies. Hugs?

Hopefully we'll know before they start shipping them out.
Apparently they have a system for revealing them. Complete clusterfuck.

Sorry to hear about that man, I hope things improve for you and the family. I miss your regular impressions and posts.

My best guess is either there's something mildly spoilery about it that they're going to reveal in a later trailer, or the prototype(s) aren't even done yet.
It's the second one

Does anyone know why the bomber jacket Harley Bombshell statue is so expensive? It looks so much better than the holiday one, IMO, but its like a bajillion dollars...

Diamond doing a Lady Deadpool Femme Fatales statue
Walking Dead Negan statue up for pre-order.
Entertainment Earth exclusive variant of the Luis Royo Wonder Woman (this one probably won't look like the prototype either):

Oh no, Johns wrote JSA forever. The second omnibus is all Johns, and the third is about 99% Johns with some fill in issues here and there (including a short arc with Gentleman Ghost that had a super skeezy plot point involving Stargirl, I think Levitz wrote it).
(Ignore the Wonder Woman omni)

I saw it yesterday in the store and it's a pretty stunning piece.

The Wonder Woman? The issue with the initial release is that people who posted pics of the in-hand version show that it doesn't look like the prototype, which is not really a good thing in the statue business.
It was one of the first and the run sold out. Plus it's Harley. It's OOP

The DCC statues go for crazy money once they're sold out. I really wanted that Arkham City Harley statue (color variant), and she's like $400.
now who's the crazy one for pre-ordering a statue he's never seen. Not Messi.
Puddin' tattoo statues on the rise.

Messi is an OG Harley fan.
I'd never sell her

I hope the Suicide Squad one looks cool. I think I want to get her. I love Margot Robbie Harley.

Aww, damnation. It's like $500 on eBay...
I hope it looks nice. I'd definitely get it if so. Otherwise it's all about the Bombshell with handlebar moustache Superman.
