But it's so dumb looking. It only works for Deadpool because he's a slapstick character.
Misfits is the thing I missed about the Jem from the Campbell era.
"Era" was 7 months ago.
The way it happened was meh but the action panels and writing made the train arc awesome. The gang getting all split up made the narration a little unfocused but once you past That it is a good time.
The writing I won't defend because it is cheesy

I did.
It is still probably headed for Canceltown. Sooner or later, all books go there.
oooooooooh. I want all of the things.
No one has mentioned the Goon or Hillbilly in a while. What is going on?
The bobble thing would bother me more if I took them out of the boxes.

So how terrible is Zombie Tramp? IST has a hardcover of the first 12 issues, and I kind of need to know how this book is still around.

I wonder if we will see a Shin Godzilla comic from IDW? I really dig what the done with the franchise so far.
Sure. But you can't live in fear of cancellation. You have to try enjoy what you get.
I dropped the book early one but jumped back on after hearing it improved.

See I liked the cheesy in the first arc because it just felt fun. But I feel like as soon as they got to the island(I really liked the small Emiko story in between) it seemed like the fun went out the window in a way. It was like it was relying on funny situations and the cheesy dialogue to seem fun but it came off just forced to me. Like I'm the most recent issues it was supposed to be funny that Queen got stuck in the stadium after the player gets shot but it comes off to me just seeming stupid. Then the guy just jumps on a blimp to get away by riding on it? That actually was funny but still felt dumb I'm a Batman 66 kind of way.
Thank you all! I think I'll go with Lando, I didn't even know there was a Lando comic!
Nah, we will see the sequel first.
Woah player spoilers! I am behind 2 issues.
I don't think the island was supposed to be a fun type of situation.

My bad, figured if we were talking about it all was open. Wasn't thinking.
I think he's just lost me on GA. I didn't like it before Rebirth and he surprised the hell out of me the first arc and I'm really liking TT but I think he's lost me on GA.
That's fair man. I am still going to keep on with it
I'm more concerned with Funimation releasing the film on blu ray in a year that ends in 7 before I even remotely think of IDW books on the franchise.
Very curious how a book about a system turned out
Edit: This may be the worst joke I do everytime someone is talking about Lando Calarissian - Sorry 🙈

It's my favorite line in Empire, keep it up
Fair, fair. People only discuss what they want to discuss, though. Not that there's anything wrong with that. But most of the stuff I post about gets no attention (again, which is fine; if people aren't interested in it they aren't going to talk about it).
most of the stuff you post about I literally have not read. like Green Lanterns and some of the older DC stuff. I have only been reading western comics since 2012.

Lol, the week they've had, let's talk about DC
Jon hasn't been in recent issues of Superman too much. Does this book work without Supes sharing the limelight with his son?
Hell yes imo.
Brah. I've been reading comics since June 2015. (seriously though, that's totally fine, haha. I was saying the Marvel thing in jest.)
The parts that work best for me are the Superman dynamics with other characters. Whether that's with Jon, Bruce, Lois, Diana, or others is OK with me. Trinity also seems to work best when it focuses on character interactions between Superman and one of the others.
woah forreal! damn dude but your wall is so huge.
When I went in, I went in HARD, my friend.

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
THIS IS MY JAM.
Duggan is one of the few writers that really gets Deadpool right, so damn, I'm ready for his Guardians. And some hate Kuder, but I think he's got the right feel for a book full of aliens.

Duggan co-wrote the best tie-in to Secret Wars and the Guardians were in the book, so I'm in for this.

He is also writing Uncanny Avengers which is the best team book anyone is writing at the moment
I can only take your word for it because I have no interest in the team to actually try it.
also can someone explain to me why Gamora is a flashback solo series and everything else is current for guardian solos.
Backstory? I think it was made around the time Gamora was planned to take a break from the group. Star Lord was a prequel series as first too.
backstory* and ahh I gotcha.
Duggan has done a ton of books I thought were really good.

For some reason, I really want G. Willow Wilson to do a Thor book. I'm unclear as to why, but I want it.
Using the train as a counterpoint was a mistake. Train was boring, Island of Scars started well as more of a slow burn, character driven arc, but petered out into a ball of nothing. Emerald Outlaw has been great though, which is good after four issues of mediocrity.
Man I dunno. It's awesome, but Detective and Champions are still both rocking super hard for me right now.
Train was boring!? say what. how can yah like the first arc then dislike the train.
