Looking at the original champions book, Black Widow, Hercules, Ghost RIder, Angel, and Iceman is the most random team ever.

I laughed so much.

The new lineup doesn't really wow me, either. But it's cool that Viv is on a team book.

I'm kind of excited for Cyclops.

This book checks a lot of boxes for me personally.

All of the O5 need to go back where they came from. That shoukd have happened after Secret Wars.

Yup me too

Why does this matter? I like seeing them in stories and I'd rather have them than not. What does sending them back achieve?

Great to see Kate and America have outgrown books like this too. Hopefully it means marvel will treat them like adults

It's a tired plot thread. It was neat when they first did it, and it was fun for a while. But the point of Secret Wars was to avoid this precise thing.

Apparently not lol.

Having the O5 around is an excuse to include them with Marvel's next generation of heroes. The fact that their book does well keeps them around too.

I'm willing to accept "Franklin forgot while he was rebuilding the universe." as a valid excuse as to why they're still on The Prime Earth.

Marvel is only keeping them around because they're too stubborn to bring back the real Jean Grey.

They are still around because there book sells. Simple as that.

This is the same Jean that isn't with them anymore?

Who is a realistic target you guys would want for your "real" X-Men book? Art and story.

They need to get the Squirrel Girl team on that asap.

She's not a mutant anymore, her mom had her tested.

 

[Boogiepop]

Looking at the IST update, is that Avenger by Byrne Omnibus good comics? And how many Absolutes should Preacher be? Also, lame that Deadly Class's Hardcover didn't get the 50% off. (Oh, and there's no problems with that one, are there?)

I was struggling on art but that's a dooope choice too

Absolute Transmetropolitan is in 3 volumes. 60 issues split as 18/18/24.

Absolute Sandman is in 4 volumes.75 issues split as 20/19/17/19

Preacher is 75 issues and Absolute Preacher v1 has 26 issues. My guess would be three volumes.

Any Copperhead fans out there? I just saw that the 3rd arc is moving forward with a new artist since original artist and co-creator is too bust with other stuff.

New artist is Drew Moss.

Faerber posted a couple of samples of Boo and Clara on his Twitter account. The his Boo looks great and his Clara look fine. It should be noted the one with Clara wasn't quite as finished as the one with Boo.

I'm just happy it's finally coming back. Last issue came out in October.

That's fantastic news. I picked up the two trades last month and enjoyed them. It was pretty disappointing to discover the book was in limbo, glad it is finally coming back.

 

[Messi]

Stefano Casselli and Al Ewing

Yeah that's awesome

 

[TetraxShards]

I'm so excited for this show:

That Wonder Woman is giving me life!

 

[Brian Fellows]

Shame things didn't quite pan out with Godlewski. The new artwork looks like a nice replacement though.

Hopefully Godlewski will still have some creative input even though he's not doing the art.

Yeah they really kill my interest in any book they are in. Hulk doesn't help matter much either.

I'll be down for GLA though!

 

[Zombine]

Absolute preacher and Deadly Class get!

I liked Totally Awesome Hulk until Cho stopped drawing it. I would love a Hulk book that was anywhere near as good as Planet Hulk. Greg Pak was in his prime.

Absolute preacher and Deadly Class get!

Which Deadly Class? Regular cover or DCBS Diamond Excl.?

Let me know how shit / not shit the binding is.

 

[VanWinkle]

Awesome. Some big books there.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Heads up for people that like comics, art, and comic art. I think the variant looks super-rad.

Exclusive. The regular cover is bad imo.

But is the cover so bad that it taints the goodness within?

Real nice, but I don't live in a dorm room in 1974 so the glow in the dark makes it a pass for me.

Glow-in-the-dark layers can be cool. What really gets my attention is foil variants, though.

 

[VanWinkle]

Got a nice little haul from Hamilton Book.

FINALLY got volume 2 of B&R. I love volume 1 which I read forever ago. Still need to get it in physical format, though.

I'll wait for the foil hologram variant.

Yolo buying Shadowman. I have never heard of this book before.

Freeza, I'm always down for some fancy paper.

oh man, THE N64 EXPANSION PACK!

 

[TetraxShards]

I own this on Steam for.....some reason. I think they gave it away with the Valiant Humble Bundle.

There's a reason.

 

[Freezasaurus]

There's a reason.

I could use some Valiant recs. I'm looking for good series where I won't have to buy a pile of books to catch up. Like, X-O Manowar is way up there is issues, so that's out. I already have the Valiant on my list.

Archer and Armstrong's my favorite. After reading a bit of that, Ivar Timewalker is great too. I've got high hopes for the Faith Ongoing starting later this month.

Harbinger is a solid book

Weren't you looking to cut down your books recently?
