Thinking of getting forever evil in either hc or sc. They are essentially the same price thanks to the barnes and nobel b2g1 sale. Do you guys precer hardcovers or soctcovers generally? For collections like the snyder batman, I buy them all the same format so they look good on the book shelf, but a one off like this can be either.
Ah ok. I should read some X-Men but I'm not interested in the teams for the life of me.

Everyone in here loves dust jackets so they'd recommend the hardcover.

I've never been outer.
If IvX is their Marvel Now X-plan than I will be X-Team free probably til '18.
Hopefully it doesn't mess with All-New Wolverine too much. It's literally the only X book I'm reading.
As stated before, the X-Men aren't really in any danger within the comics. If anything, the way Marvel Comics have been playing up the conflict is too obvious. I have a good feeling that both the X-Men & the Inhumans will walk away from the event.
To each their own. I'm mainly gonna read it just to find out what happened to Adult Cyclops.
Marvel's still gonna be printing X-Books, they'll just not be part of the Marvel NOW relaunch (Death of X aside).

Lol. I first thought they were getting some early Diamond numbers. Then I saw their "methodology".
any particular reason? I haven't been following Birdie continuity past you liking things.

Because the x-team books are a dumpster fire.
The current X-books are decent, but the Apocalypse thing, the Terrigen Mist, and Greg Land are holding them back. Hopefully they get on track with the new stories starting month.

All this needs is a "Harley Quinn beat the finale of Locke & Key in the GAF monthly poll." reference and it's perfect.

DC's My Secret Origin(or How I Broke Into Comics) panel.
Birds Of Prey 20th Anniversary panel.
First look at Thundercats/He-Man. If someone want to bump the thread they're free to do so.

So after thinking about this a little bit more, I'm excited to see where this all goes.
I mean, this is clearly Marvel capitalizing on the neurosis that there is a conspiracy out there to kill the X-men because of some corporate overlords trying to reign in profits made from mainstream audiences.
However, this is comics. Not the movies, nor the toys and although all those markets have some semblance influence over each other, where comics have found the most success is in the stories they tell.
I think there is a completely valid and compelling story to tell. What happens when the oppressed (the most common modern analogy for the X-men) meet the feared (what could be a very compelling analogy for the Inhumans)? Although they have more in common, there is a distinction that could lead to some awesome storytelling.
If only they could figure out a way to create someone who is both an inhuman and a mutant...

She totally did though. It's final issue too.

Yes. We all remember that dark day
November 2014 Rise Of Harleen
On the occasion I do buy stuff I print, I don't sweat the format. Whatever is available and affordable.

Catching up on books right now and is it just me or is Green Lantern way too busy from a layout standpoint? The story is ok but it s all over the place visually.

I need a DC comic at around £13.99 to buy with Dmz book 5. I would like it to be a one off book. Is earth one wonder woman any good?

It's kinda disappointing taken on its own, but it's a solid first chapter if they actually follow through and do more volumes. I would recommend people read it if/when those subsequent volumes arrive and not by itself now.
If you want a good one-off book from DC, get that Dini/Risso Dark Night book.

We haven't done a book of the month in ages. We should start that up again. I'll vote for Prison School every month.

Thank ks for the suggestions. I went with all star Superman as I like to save as much as possible haha but I actually have only ever read death of Superman and figured I should actually try and read some more of his comics.
I will definitely try and check out Dark Night in the future as the set up sounds very unique. Would I need to know the back story of the creator to get the most out of the book?

Not really, Dini goes into his background in the early part of the book. Everything up to him working on Tiny Toon Adventures is kind of brief but you get the gist of things.

Mad Magazine makes fun of everyone. People are so sensitive. Not that the comments are surprising, but still ridiculous.
Tom.
Had Robbie sales rivaled that of Kamala, he would still have an ongoing. Silk is lucky because her sales are good enough to keep going.
But yeah, the diverse thing rings hollow when Runaways or Young Avengers are split apart and what happened to the Academy kids after Undercover?

DC posted it because MAD Magazine is owned by Time Warner.
Also yes, comments are bad. But people always get nuts when they talk about politics.
