Star Wars comics sound interesting like the creative teams.

Look, I'll say this, I'm far from a Star Wars fanatic. I've seen all the movies, played KOTOR 1/2, but that's about it in terms of exposure to the franchise. These upcoming on-goings, however, will be purchased for my viewing pleasure. Very excited to hear the news!

All three Star Wars stories sound awesome.

Of course it is. People love Quitely's take on Superman, judging from panels posted here.
I'm just saying that if the art isn't impressive, I have very little reason to pull a comic. I'll just read a novel with better writing for my 50/50 challenge.
Mixed? It's fantastic. It won gaf book of the month defeating the finale of Locke and Key.

A Princess Leia series by Mark Waid and Terry Dobson? I'm there day one.
Also it's great that Cassaday will be involved in a non-cape series.

Yep. Good issue.

Speaking of Star Wars, the next Star Wars bishoujo by Kotobukiya has been announced. And it's....
...Stormtrooper. A LADY Stormtrooper.
...Stormtrooper. A LADY Stormtrooper.
Where do I go to voice my anger at this news? Will she even have boob Armour or a sexual pose?
Daaaaaaaaaum at Jessica Nigris Arkham Knight cosplay. Fuck.
Talk to me when we get a Bishoujo Nute Gunray.

Most assuredly. I don't know if she'll be in a state of undress, as we only have the outline to go on... The only previous bishoujo that I can think of that had full body-armor was Mass Effect's Commander Shepard, but I thought she still turned out really sexy. The armor detail was ace.

Post-jail commentary on this week's comics:
Zero
....best comic this week.
Storm was a really strong start....Pak surprised me.
Velvet, Red Lanterns, and Wonder Woman continue to be great.
I'm liking what Johns is doing on Superman.
ASM is about to be dropped soon

Those Star Wars announcements are kinda boring. They've hired good talent, but there have been endless stories told between Episode 4 and 5 in comics and books over the years. Granted, the EU is being almost entirely reset, but how many new fresh ideas are there to mine in there with the big three characters?

I feel like rereading Dark Knight Returns after seeing that incredible leaked video of the teaser. I can't wait for 2 more years to get here.
So hype.

I'm so over Superman fighting Batman. That shit peaked in 1986.
True that

I agree. I'm fighting off my hype train but everything they've been showing has been good in my eyes. I hope they pull it off
Is Man of Steel worth watching?

I can't get excited. man of Steel was so bad . Glad to be proven wrong
I like a lot of the visuals and it was nice to actually see a superman where power and action were represented. Some glorious Kryptonian vs Kryptonian power level fights and action sequences.
But the movie is lacking in a lot of ways and the writing struggles. There are some things i think Snyder was trying to pull off IMO (particularly as it relates to a common criticism of the film, the damage Superman lets the fighting inflict on the city/people) but just couldn't bring it together. It is heavily flawed.
I'm worried the same will happen for BvS. But damn if it won't look cool.

Bro, only on GAF could Harley Quinn beat out Locke and Key. One will go down as one of the best horror comic runs of all-time. The other is a hyper-sexualized court jester designed to induce boners in 15 year olds.
and yet here we are...

Your mileage will vary.
I wish I could give it a solid recommendation, but consensus is split down the middle, and even my opinion of it is basically "it's okay. I give why people love it and why people hate it."
Shit's been giving us diminishing returns since TDKR, but still, some people eat it up.
Scott Snyder is adorable.

He is really fun to watch, sounds like Endgame is going to be their Hush in terms of how many guest appearances it will have.

Realistic Harley makes her so much scarier to me. She needs to be so much more cartoony. damn.
