Broken record time: How is Ron Wimberly not on a Blade book?

You're making me really sad right now...

 

[Kipp]

Actually since I made that post, I found a random seller on Amazon that had vol 3 for $6 new. Strange, but I bought it. I think I may start this soon.

You might have missed it, but I also ordered the Sleeper omni this morning. Did I do good senpai?

Awww yes. Sweet.

And oh nice! I did miss that! You done real good. Sleeper is so awesome. And the omnibus itself is a really nice package as well.

You've got a lot of great comics reading ahead of you

Is there a Batman story were Waynes Identity is made avaiable to a larger public?

 

[my name is ed]

Does anyone know if GAF have a webcomic makers' community thread?

There *was* a general comics makers thread but I'm pretty sure it's dead now

Broken record time: How is Ron Wimberly not on a Blade book?

We live in a fallen world

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Gods and Monster's Jimmy Olsen is...............LMAO.

When did Wimberly learn how to draw people instead of whatever the fuck he did in She-Hulk?

There might be an elseworlds that does, but there was also Bruce Wayne: Murderer? and Bruce Wayne: Fugitive that almost explore that territory.

Where he was thrown in jail and feeled punished for not beeing able to go out to fight crime without revealing his identity.

Man, enjoyed the hell out of this book, it were a couple of great years for Batman and Detectice Comics, with War Games, Broken City, Bruce Wayne Murderer, etc.
Need to collect all the 00s stuff at some point.

My love for Valiant is being tested.

I just received my first OHC from them.

Spoiler

it has a dust jacket

 

[BuddyJoeHooker]

IST order:
GREEN LANTERN BY GEOFF JOHNS OMNIBUS HC VOL 02
X-O MANOWAR DLX HC VOL 02

all I need is Shadowman to have all the Valiant Deluxe stuff, keep waiting on it cause of all the bad stuff I hear about it.

It's also one of the weakest collections. I think it only has 10-11 issues.

I've never read a Green Lantern comic. I have failed this city.

Valiant was a mistake. Nothing but trash.

So, i'm a long time mango reader and decided to dive into cape comics/create an OT thread about my rad experiences:

I always thought the dialogue in cape comics was cheesy as fuck---and my opinion hasn't changed, why does every character seem to need to talk smart at least once per issue---but it's starting to grow on me. Nothing really effects me emotionally, as far as I've read, except perhaps the real-world stuff Kamella goes through, I guess I'm cynical and iconoclastic to be upset over "60 kids died!" melodrama. I admit, some of the jokes are funny, and I guess the hit ratio is bigger than the miss in most cases. Also it's hard to get a read on certain character's personalities, but I guess when it comes to comics the most important stuff to care about in terms of character are there overall "prominent" elements and powers and just go with the plot for everything else.

Wait, all the talking up you've done for them and you didn't have a single OHC yet? My world is shattered.

Did you ever get/read that Dr. Mirage?

I was gambling that they were extraordinary like everything else they do. But this... I can't condone this.

Spoiler

in spite of the dust cover, it's quite excellent

 

[Freezasaurus]

Got it, didn't read it yet. It's in "the stack."

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Dan Slotts Arkham Living Hell is pretty good and kind of disturbing.
Didnt expected this tbh.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Gods and Monsters was pretty good although it felt like a movie pilot for a tv series. It lacked detail in some bits of story surrounding the characters and the world.

In true DC style the main story revolves around

Spoiler

Batman.

Don't they have glued bindings?

Did they explain why Wonder Woman had such a goofy helmet?

 

[Spike Spiegel]

The X-Men '92 variants by Nakayama are such a tease.

Did they explain why Wonder Woman had such a goofy helmet?

She's a New God, they wear goofy Kirby-inspired helmets.

 

[Shin Johnpv]

It's just that good. I have been so impressed by the stories told thus far.

I have to say I was pretty iffy on it. Then my friend forced me to borrow his copies and read them, and I finished what's out of the main series so far, and I'm like halfway through the Darth Vader books. I have to be honest I'm really impressed with how fucking good they are.

 

[BrightLightLava]

The X-Men '92 variants by Nakayama are such a tease.

Too good, I totally had that Storm action figure. She had a thing you pulled down on her back and a lightning bolt on her chest lit up.

 

[Freezasaurus]

???

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Just wondering. I remembered suddenly.

Don't they have glued bindings?

Yes, glued bindings. No cropping, though; that was just the one X-O classic omni.

 

[Shin Johnpv]

That thread was so close to being cool. Then we got the "I don't read comics, but here's all my complaints about them" crowd.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

the combination of a Wu reference + 80s Storm/Dracula story = da bes

 

[Messi]

Should I buy this God's and Monsters blu ray?

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Did they explain why Wonder Woman had such a goofy helmet?

She's a New God. They don't really explain the helmet. I assume it represents her people's culture.

It was always going end up like that, Poodle.

I know, I know.

But I will never stop hoping.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Gods and Monsters also shows female nipples. Not in full detail but they are there. Bruce Timm couldn't hold back his lewdness.

I like how that's the determining factor for Messi.

I'd really like to read this, I've never bought one of those digital first comics with the panels all seperated out before.

Too good, I totally had that Storm action figure. She had a thing you pulled down on her back and a lightning bolt on her chest lit up.

Hah i totally had this along with a brown costume Wolverine with claws you had to clip to keep them out. I loved that show growing up.

There not Harley's if thats what your hoping cuz she's not in the movie. Cuz she's dead.

 

[ReAxion]

Have we ever had a Messi hook as good as "tiger tits" ?

 

[whatsinaname]

Wow, $150 million budget for the Gambit movie. Viewtiful must be really happy.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

you have no idea

 

[Zombine]

Wow, $150 million budget for the Gambit movie. Viewtiful must be really happy.

And I bet they couldn't afford a single female nipple.

 

[Hagi]

Wow, $150 million budget for the Gambit movie. Viewtiful must be really happy.

If this has a bigger budget than Deadpool there's some serious high tier fuckery going on at Fox.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Gambit should be a straight-to-DVD film that makes Sharknado look like GOAT filmmaking.

 

[Zombine]

I just watched the first episode of Danger 5 and I'm not sure what the hell that was.

 

[Messi]

There not Harley's if thats what your hoping cuz she's not in the movie. Cuz she's dead.

Oh god I've made a huge mistake

I bought this because I thought she was in it.

Oh in better news. I found Fables:Cinderella Vol 1 and 2 in the store today. Excited to start.

 

[Nudull]

Am I gonna be the only one on GAF who walked away from Gods and Monsters thinking it was utter shit?
