Right then, caught up to some comics
Cage 2 & 3
Genny really is showing off the art here. If anyone's not picking it up right now, I'd recommend getting the collected edition when it goes up. The overall story is short but the art is pretty dynamic.
Great Lakes #3
Issue was mostly character centric as the team discuss the past and their current lives.
Also the word 'Fursona' is used.
'She-'Hulk #1
Not bad so far, but let's see where this goes.
Klaus & the Witch of Winter #1
Don Roma's art is spectacular as always, and the issue had the usual Morrison fast paced-ness and...odd stuff that totally happened.
Sonic #290
IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!

So weird. There are aspects of that art that look great... but Emma looks messed up.

I just beat Batman Telltale, and it is a game which I strongly recommend checking out as it is a different take on the Batman mythos.
Indeed the art has some good stuff going for it but yeah Emma was just...what.

Cyborg #6: about a month ago I gushed over a past issue of cyborg. This issue was just okay, I do like the more serious side of Victor Stone but push into too much and it gets a bit depressing. The Teen Titans animated series got it the best when he's mostly a comedic guy so the pay off works when shit gets real internally. So Cyborg still seems to have he ability to turn into a regular dude but it's less bio organic than in the last series. The fact that he barley uses this power could be seen in two different ways, either Victor is cool being disabled or he doesn't use tad human and purposely further detached himself from others.
Cyborg #7: A but better. I do like in the context of a superhero universe that you have someone who gets involved in a calculated injury on the off Chance they get super powers. I'm ready for the fake Silas Stone plot to be done because it was the least interesting thing about this issue and it's over taking the plot. A PMC built on taking over the world while creating its own super powered soldiers as sleeper agents is a great idea. The ending is pretty messed up and answers the question of Cyborg is man or machine.

How's Great Lake Avengers been? (I know TheFlow dropped it but wanted other opinions too 
).
).It's gotten substantially worse ever since one of the joke writers from the Outhouse started writing for them.

These are bloody fucking amazing

It's slow but good, it is very character focused atm. It falls into the Marvel category of 'down on luck Z-listers trying to make it in a comics world that wouldn't give them the light of day'.

Detective Comics 945: A pretty Dense book, a lot of plot and character development done in 22 pages. Best Batman and team book out right now. Love the change of artist between the Tompkins interviews and the main book.
Detective Comics 946: Shiiiiiittt, this book is awesome. I Wish I was better at desribing art because Barrows, Lucas, and the two Ferrerias kill it. Those splash pages of the victim syndicate being taken out is great, and the way panels can change art style from painterly to more house style while keeping a noirish tint is amazing. The Clayface and Oprhan sequences were pretty cruel in the ways to take down their opponents.
Detective Comics: 947: Hot Dawn that was great, book really bounced back from Monster Men.

Yea, despite the flashy headline Polygon have up today, I think he's really been saying that same thing for months. It won't go ahead until it's ready, and it'll only be ready when he says so.
Took you an hour? Oh honey. That is my favorite tutorial boss
Yea I like his moveset a lot. Going to play more of it later.
Yea dark souls 3 has so many awesome bosses. You will get rekted but don't give up

No, but we did know that retailers really liked last year's "Let's reprint Cass!Batgirl and a couple of other random books" direction. More books on the shelves always help and Li'l Gotham is a favorite.

Though it might be you. PM your address. It's all yours.
Attractive Oswald Cobblepot is the most surprising to me.
Lee Garbetts Batgirl is coming out later this year. That's the Stephanie run. Also volume 2 of Rucka Wonder Woman and Ruckas Batwoman.
Will do. Thank you

Just saw Rogue One and it was good. I welled up like a mofo at the end.
Yeah. Some parts hurt.
Lil Gotham Deluxe Edition was on Amazon US for a long time and then it disappeared many months ago. Is it back on there, or is this on another Amazon?
lol no but the
mermaids

Just decided to play through it again since I didn't play the DLC yet, and I skipped a lot of optional bosses because I didn't look up how to get them.
Faith build felt like such a waste until I got sunlight spear, sogood now. Shame you can't get it until the very end of the game though.
Archdragon peak boss battle was visually amazing though.
Comic wise I'm reading claremont's x-men run right now, not really feeling it that much. People swore up and down that it was like the best comic book run ever but not feeling it. I feel like a lot of these older runs you had to be there to really appreciate it, as I find myself preferring a lot of the newer runs. The exception being Swamp Thing & Sandman ofc.
Oh man the best boss imo is the optional boss in D3. The one with the
dragon and lightning
Claremonts x men actually improves and improves.

I would buy this so quick. The nature of buying it for the kid and to read myself means it's about one of the only series I have in floppy. Would love it on the shelf.

Ah, okay. I'll hold out excitement until an official solicitation, since it went off Amazon US awhile back.

Comics are so confusing. Read a Totally Awesome Hulk that was all cool smashing and genuine feels and the next issue was some Jeremy Lin basketball dumpster fire. Glad I dropped that book. *shakes fist*
Should I try Unstoppable Wasp, you guys? Who is hyped for this?

Link is broken but I'm gonna say this anyway. Fuck yes.
We all are. We are big Elsa Charretier Stan's here.
I would have skipped those 2 issues anyways, next arc has Silk, Jimmy Woo, Shang Chi and Ms. Marvel.
<---- Maybe...

You know, it feels like every Marvel teen hero issue the last few months have been character crossovers when they weren't busy with CWII. Probably due to wanting more people to pick up the Wasp and Riri books since seeing them in Moon Girl etc might make people want them(haven't worked thus far as far as we've seen). Ghost Rider is such a thinly veiled "Do you want to pick up a All-New Fantastic Four later?!" book in this first arc.

Vader's the only one I've read, and I'm only a little ways in, but it's pretty good. Larrocca's art is good, but insanely stiff. Which is both oddly great and awful.
That issue was so good.
That whole book is so good
Holy crap! Is that the Superman annual?

Hey, guys I just made a thread but realized that this would likely be a better place for this question:
I've fallen behind on comics and all the stores around me will routinely order so little that they'll run out of stock on titles I want to buy the day after new release, let alone a week or two later. I've used Midtowncomics.com to catch up before but the last time I did they took so freakin' long to get me my order that it put me behind again! I know of DCBS but their website looks like it's more for just setting up a pull list? I don't get how to just look for a back issue and add it to my cart easily like on Midtowncomics. Any alternate suggestions? Thanks!

It's frustrating.
Time to start posting here in the new year again. Due to budget reasons I had to stop buying new comics due to the awful Canadian dollar hurting me on top of the already high monthly prices. Happy new years guys.
So I started Marvel Unlimited and I'm going to be doing that for a while. Invincible and Monstress are the only exceptions for me buying new issues. I really wish there was a paying option on Unlimited to get all of the latest Marvel books instead of the 6 month delay. Like I'd pay a larger amount of money for a year to get every Marvel book on release rather than having to wait.
