Haha, that turnaround for Messi. Congrats!

Also, just finished Immortal Iron Fist. The second complete collection was not quite as awesome as the first, but not bad definitely. Are the other Immortal Weapons still around or did they just quietly disappear after this run?

Oh, and how often do comics specific figures get released? I know cartoons especially and then movies get priority, but can you get, say, Batman Inc Batman?

 

[Tyrant Rave]

She's been around for awhile, she helped create Longshot with Arthur Adams.

I think she helped create Spiral and Blackheart too

 

[Freezasaurus]

New writer in October apparently. Genevieve Valentine? Jae Lee on covers. Garry Brown on interior art.

They read your post and took immediate action.

Hahahahaha holy shit! The timing is amazing.

 

[Filthy Slug]

Poor Klarion is getting Nocenti'd

Fuck everything.

Immortal Weapons had a mini and appeared in Fraction's Defenders.

A bunch of them

got killed (I think)

in a Spider Island mini, but I'm gonna guess a later writer is just going to ignore that.

I suppose thanks are in order.

Thank you Nostradamus Korupt.

 

[slightconfuse]

Noooooo not klarion
Morison plz

 

[GrandHarrier]

Of course this new writer hasn't done anything before so it is entirely possible she could be worse than Nocenti. Probability suggests otherwise. But who knows?

 

[zeeaykay]

Getting caught in dat GotG hype. Is the annihilation omni worth reading, work all the mini's?

It can't be worse.

Yes. It is the best. Pricey though.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

WOW!!!!

[Tyrant Rave]

It's great.

Guardians of the Galaxy by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning is also worth reading. Unless you wanna go digital though, you should wait for the Complete Collection starting next month.

 

[TetraxShards]

WOW!!!!

http://www.nerdist.com/2014/07/sdcc...alks-dark-horses-new-hellboy-the-bprd-series/

THAT ART!!!!

You've got me, Dark Horse. I will use your app.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

It's great.

Is it as funny as the movie looks though? All the A/L stuff I've read has none of that Step Brothers panache like the latest trailer does.

It's pretty funny, I think:

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

It's pretty funny, I think:

Is that the Star Lord mini? I remember digging that.

 

[TetraxShards]

Yeah, it is. It's the start of the whole Guardians thing IMO. Really enjoyable mini.

 

[slightconfuse]

Finished the fist FBP trade. Interesting story. Bit the strength is the art

 

[tim1138]

WOW!!!!

http://www.nerdist.com/2014/07/sdcc...alks-dark-horses-new-hellboy-the-bprd-series/

Did I just read Alex Maleev is doing a Hellboy comic? Give it to me now.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

It's pretty darn goofy at points. The movie looks like it'll be funnier but this is the comic that brought us moments like this:

I just finished Spider Island today and I don't remember that happening.

Yup at the end, during the fight with the queen, they all show up alive.

 

[DustinC]

WOW!!!!

Yeah, I can get behind this. December! What a wait.

IGN has a list of the best Batman artists of all time.

Greg Capullo made number eight. Do people actually like him a lot? I've been hearing good things about the Snyder-Batman arcs, but I've been having a difficult time getting into it, and the artwork being one of the major complaints.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

So my next target is the Hickman FF run, but how's this new James Robinson book turning out? Thinking about putting the TPB on my list.

 

[Messi]

I dug it all around. Waiting for the second trade right now. I don't like how it reads in singles.

 

[Memento Mori]

How's your tolerance for Robinson's dialogue?

 

[Owzers]

Took my Superior Foes of Spiderman vol 1 tp off the shelf to read and the front and back covers are curly. Why does this happen?

 

[Cheska]

Messi, you should have dropped Catwoman earlier, we would have had this turn around much quicker haha

 

[ViewtifulJC]

LMAO @ Jim Aparo not being on the list

Sad @ no Tim Sale on the list.

Probably cheaply made. Mine does the same thing and it drives me nuts. I hope they put out a big hardcover or something once the series ends.

 

[Sanjuro]

LMAO @ Jim Aparo not being on the list

Yup. Still, don't put a ton of stock into IGN lists. I was just curious more on if people actually liked the current artwork.

Aparo and Adams are pretty much Batman for me.

 

[Kipp]

WOW!!!!

http://www.nerdist.com/2014/07/sdcc...alks-dark-horses-new-hellboy-the-bprd-series/

WOW indeed. Every single thing about that looks incredible. 1950s setting? In the Brazilian jungle? With Alex Maleev on art?
This is one of the most hype-inducing announcements in a long time for me. That seems amazing.

I still need to read half of Hellboy and all of BPRD though. By the time I get around to buying/reading those, hopefully Hellboy & the BPRD will have been released in the library edition format. Haha


Oh, and also, please give us your next prophecy, Korupt.

 

[MG310]

Just think...if you stopped buying it 25 issues ago you could have spared yourself a lot of bad reading and had enough extra cash to take this home.

Pfft, you thought Messi was gonna stop buying Catwoman?

I don't think Messi will drop the book now. I think he'll suffer through it.

Spoiler

Totally correct

Guys this feels like dc trolling me. Trying to break me.

 

[Shin Johnpv]

At least Adams made the list. Though personally I would put Capullo a lot higher on it. I'm sorry you're not digging the art in the current run, but I'm loving it. The stuff he's been doing for Zero Year combined with the coloring has been amazing.

The fact that Bruce Timm also only gets a passing comment is ridiculous.

 

[LosDaddie]

The Infinity Gauntlet omnibus has a good size to it:

 

[Fuu]

It's pretty funny, I think:

Annihilation Conquest Star-Lord is so good. That mini does everything right.

 

[tim1138]

The Infinity Gauntlet omnibus has a good size to it:

What's the paper quality like?

 

[Tyrant Rave]

The Infinity Gauntlet omnibus has a good size to it:

Damn, that's pretty fat.

I've never read all of Infinity Gauntlet despite owning the floppies and being a huge Thanos fan. I may order the omni next month or something.

 

[Zombine]

The Infinity Gauntlet omnibus has a good size to it:

I'd say that it is comparable to X-Statix.

Edit: exact same size.

That list is terrible, but I can't honestly come up with 10 different ones to take their place, though that I agree Tim Sale should be on that list, and I would categorically include Francesco Francavilla as well.

I actually do like Capullo's art a great deal. Even so, Snyder's writing is good enough that I would read it even if I didn't particularly care for the art.

 

[Messi]

Messi, you should have dropped Catwoman earlier, we would have had this turn around much quicker haha

I'm sorry Cheska. Will you be jumping back in for the new start? I would like to be able to discuss it on here and I know you love Catwoman.

What happened the avatar?

Just think...if you stopped buying it 25 issues ago you could have spared yourself a lot of bad reading and had enough extra cash to take this home.

I might still buy that after my next statue purchase.

Greg Capullo and Kelley Jones are my favorite Bat artist and they have that gothic cartoony look.
