What would a Sillymonkey OT even look like? Roman Reigns Photoshopped onto every cover?
Didn't he do the ms paint ot when spike was banned
#4 was delayed but 4 and 5 are coming out within two weeks of each other.

It's not a good OT, it's not a bad OT....it's THE OT.
He also wrote the finest blurb ever in one of these threads:
I laugh so much every time I think of it.
I bought that whole series.
They double shipped this month.

I'm not sure about Captain Hydra but Captain America has been coming out pretty fast. 18 issues since...I wanna say November 2015?
That's fine though because it's the best
ah this explains it. I am not complaining though! the more the merrier.
If you're planning on getting The Authority, then add Stormwatch vol 1 and 2 by Ellis. Knowing your taste in comics, definitely do not read any of the Millar Authority run, just pretend it ends at issue 12 and is only referenced again for the Planetary crossover.
I think you'd also dig Gail Simone's Gen13 run and Welcome to Tranquility.
James Robinson and Alan Moore had decent runs on WildCATS, but I have no idea how easy any of that is to find (and I seem to remember the Robinson run particularly be collected poorly).
Wildstorm also put out some great creator owned stuff like Global Frequency, A God Somewhere, the original Astro City runs, and Ex Machina.
Those were the best ots, and we will have them again. Who needs formatting and Valiant books?

Wasn't that Snyder?

She's kind of unique in that she fills a "sister" role that none of the other Robins really had, afaik. Dick has had a trillion love interests, and they've all (other than maybe Jason pre RHATO) had female allies but Maya and Damian's dynamic is kind of unique.

Snyder wrote. Lemire did the drawings.

Tim. I'm disappointed. How did you forget one of the best Wildstorm books? Brubakers and Philips cape/spy book Sleeper. 24 issues and it's amazing. And surpringly in the wildcats continuity.
Also Caseys Wildcats 3.0 is amazing. He takes it into a corporate business with cape stuff behind the scenes and I really loved it.

All-Star Batman #6 was amazing. Loved the art, loved Batman in the setting, and Freeze is always welcome. Best of this series far.

Yeah, I haven't ordered from them in ages. The most packing material they seem to be able to spare is a single air packet.

I've been waiting on the sillymonkey comic OT for years
if that cant happen in the presidential term of Trump, than what hope is there

The establishment posters have too much power right now.
Awesome. Thanks, guys.
That should be Global Frequency in my post, not global warming, by the way. Stupid autocorrect.

We will let Sillymonkey do the April OT. It will be like an elaborate April Fools joke. :3

Speaking of global frequency. They need to try and make it a tv show again. He original pilot didn't get picked up but the climate of tv has changed. I've never read a 12 issue series that seemed more designed to be a tv show than that one
Right? It'd be a perfect hour long cable drama, you'd only need like two regular cast members and you could tell almost any kind of story each episode.
Not happening. We will never get it back

If you run on an anti-soup platform you might just have a chance.

I don't know if he realizes how much work it is.
I'm talking about both Trump and Sillymonkey, btw.

To anyone who has read Octavia Butler, if Doro was in the Marvel or DC universe how big of a threat would he be?
For those unfamiliar, Doro can inhabit the body of any person he encounters and when he does so that person's soul is killed and the body he leaves behind dies. He has enhanced strength in any body he occupies, but doesn't gain special abilities of any body he inhabits. Killing the body he's in will immediately make him jump into the closest body even if it's 4000 miles away. When his powers manifested he killed his entire village before he managed to stay in control. He can also track any person with powers.

can't speak for DC, but Marvel? He would be tracked down pretty quickly by one of these, I think.
good luck there.

Is it because of the Penance Stare? Can it kill his consciousnesses because if it's just the body he'll just hop into another one probably theirs.
Can I do the April OT?
Manmademan
Member
no, but those aren't fun either.
The ghost riders are pretty much wandering hellfire in solid form. They can just burn your soul out with it and destroy it. Hellfire attacks the soul but is especially destructive against supernatural and magical entities.
Killing people you shouldn't tends to summon them, they can see souls, spirits, supernatural things.
Indestructible unless you have fairly powerful magic, holy weapons, etc. you can't steal their bodies because they don't really have them in ghost rider form.
Welcome to the thread. What kind of books do you enjoy?

See now I don't know if this is the real Zombine or if someone swooped the name.
The real question is, how do you feel about soup?
Not to throw shade but I was wondering if with Zombine for 3 days. All he ate was pretzels and vitamin water.

Soft pretzels or hard pretzels?
Soft like his morals. Citrus vitamin water.
