Damn, son. What about Marvel and DC? Comics gonna eat your wallet in October.

I'm looking forward to Surgeon X and Black Monday Murders, too.

 

[Duress]

Jeez looking at Oct. previews and Multiversity in to finally comes out. So long.

Have you been waiting for the TPB? The hardcover is gorgeous.

I have MU for Marvel.

DC I just don't read even though all my favorite Image writers are writing for them now.

 

[Zombine]

Remember when Coffin Hill was good for like 3 issues?

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Remember Coffin Hill?

no

2 issues, tops.

 

[Zombine]

There is a good Netflix show somewhere in that plot. It just stepped into WGN territory too quick.

Should have got that deluxe edition oversized hardcover. T'was a beauty.

 

[Ponn]

Welp 2nd IST order for the month placed (gotta get that 2%).

Superior Spidey HC's 1-3
Monstress TP
Old Man Logan vol. 1

But WGN made Manhattan, which was pretty good. And Underground was allegedly good too.

I am possibly reading too much into it but this tweet (third in thread) might imply East of West ends around issue 45...

I can live with that. Now we need news on The Manhattan Projects.

 

[Brianimaniac]

Don't watch Green Room if you're full of pizza.

How about I just don't watch it? Ever.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Its a good movie, you wouldn't like it anyway

I still need to get Superior Spider-Man Vol 1 and 2. I've had 3 for a long time, but it's hard for me to buy a 248 page OHC for $20 on IST when I can buys something in the same format with more pages for the same price or cheaper. I need to do it soon before they go OOP, though.

I love my HC's, i'm a sucker for them.

Also I forgot to post my first IST haul for this month I got a couple days ago.

Deadly Class HC is F'ng HUGE!

 

[TropicalFish]

I regret not waiting for the entire Time Runs Out run to come out as one HC. The HC's for volume 1 and 4 were like 12 bucks each though so I couldn't resist. T-T

 

[TheFlow]

East of West Ends at #45? yea that man definitely has it drawn out.

Just like Remender said he already has the last issues planned for Deadly Class.

 

[VanWinkle]

Nice. Deadly Class definitely looks beautiful.

And yeah, I'm a sucker for HCs, too. Adore them.

 

[Brianimaniac]

Stupid old-people books don't even glow.

 

[TheFlow]

Just confirmed that retail versions will be in print forever by Moore. XD. Might just buy one

All black omnibus is all black.

 

[Freezasaurus]

All black omnibus is all black.

I bought one of those. It'll be cool when I actually have something to show for it.

 

[TheFlow]

I love the green cover the most^^^


BvsV looks great, but is this canon or just a spinoff series that doesn't affect the main book

 

[Owzers]

This live Colbert late show on the rnc is amazing and I recommend you find a way to see it later.

It doesn't matter, because I still don't believe Adam Hughes can keep up with a monthly schedule.

 

[Sandfox]

A Betty and Veronica book feels kinda early to me bases on where the characters are at in the Archie book, but apparently it's good so what do I know lol.

It really is too early, the main book hasn't even hit 12 issues. There isn't a real conflict between the two yet since Betty dumped Archie.

Have they even talked or been in the same general vicinity of each other, outside of that one bathroom thing?

I am not that far into it, but solicits has

Spoiler

Veronica moving out of town.

so idk. I really need to catch up

 

[BrightLightLava]

I can't think of anything.

 

[LordOfLore]

Man, the old Kyle vs Hal fan war sounds like it wasn't nice.

Btw, the solicits with Waller trying to get Kryptonite from Lex makes it sound like Zod might show up in Suicide Squad.

Yes. And Fantastic Five is coming right after that.

 

[BKatastrophe]

Why have I never watched Teen Titans Go! before? This is way better than regular Teen Titans.

The big issue with the OG cartoon is that the art hasn't aged well, but more importantly, it suffered from basically being tone deaf. It wasn't sure if it wanted to be more funny, or more serious. Now, a show that balances humor along with seriousness is necessary, with the genre dictating what the balance should be. TT didn't feel balanced, though. It felt bipolar. Mood whiplash galore. Then the series wraps on a fairly somber note. It's still a solid choice as far as action cartoons go, but it's flaws are a bit more glaring than others and it doesn't have a lot of standout pluses.

TTG, on the other hand, knows exactly what it wants to do. It's why it works. I also love how the Titans are all just terrible people. It's like It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, but with teenage superheroes.

Speaking of superhero action cartoons, how is Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes? I've literally never heard anyone even mention it, so my assumption is that it's no better than mediocre. Still, I'd like to know.

He keeps all his books in circulation. Really good dude.

 

[Messi]

Lol its not like he is hiding it from you. The listing said it would ship the week after comic con. Pls.

 

[BKatastrophe]

Green Arrow #1
And so this remains a good comic. It's only two issues, but I'm optimistic. Also,

Spoiler

does the emphasis on "totem" with the whole secret shady business meeting mean that they know Ollie is the Green Arrow?

Weavers #3
This book is tense as hell. Good lord. Edge of my seat indeed. Also it's still pretty good.

Sonic Universe #87
Okay so this seems like a strange jumping on point, but indeed I have jumped on. Fun writing, nice art. Definitely had me laughing and also intrigued. Although

Spoiler

this Nixus motherfucker

seems straight fanfiction. Then again, I'm reading Sonic comics, so that's a pretty moot observation. Much like Mega Man, I'll need to go back and read more of this.

EDIT: Oh it's SU #87, but it's Shattered #1. That's how Mega Man got me, too. Clever bastards

 

[duckroll]

Huh, missed this earlier tweet: https://twitter.com/JHickman/status/751900525646536705

So East of West ends with Year 3, that definitely isn't a joke tweet, which means it really is going to end at around #45.

Sonic got rebooted with #55 being the first issue after for Universe.

I haven't read any Sonic since the reboot and need to catch up since I got everything in the humble bundle.

 

[echoshifting]

I don't want East of West to ever end

 

[Messi]

I don't want East of West to ever end

I love the book but I would love for it to have a proper ending instead of just getting abandoned. Manhattan Projects makes me nervous.

 

[Brian Fellows]

I'll be very happy with 45 issues of East of West.

 

[duckroll]

So Hickman has Black Monday Murders coming up, and he's also launching Frontier which he's also drawing himself later this year. Yet he has said jack shit about the future of Manhattan Projects.

 

[Messi]

As would I. That is 3 large hardcovers. I would rather they end the book on their terms and don't feel the need to stretch it for more content.

Slinking off into the sunset

 

[Brianimaniac]

It's remarkable how many people still don't understand what a Rotten Tomatoes score is actually saying. It's 2016.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Lol its not like he is hiding it from you. The listing said it would ship the week after comic con. Pls.

I know, Messi. But I want it naooooo.

I'm going to be bankrupt

Don't forget the Dying and the Dead which basically faltered before it was out of the starting blocks. Last I heard he was hoping to relaunch that as a monthly in 2016.
