Ironically, if he is doing a variant I expect it to be the most tasteful.

Oof, Bounty. Not so good. Bland story. Zero interesting hooks. This artist is good but the art and writing just don't quite mesh...Wiebe can't really settle on a tone for the book and everything suffers as a result. It wants to be Rat Queens in Space but it's nowhere close to achieving that goal. Dropped.
I feel like it was super rushed. Like the whole thing needed another draft or two to work. Nothing about these characters or this world will draw you in. Too bad.

He has been done with it for months.
I for one am shocked that he can't find the tone and doesn't mesh with the artist. How could we possibly have seen this coming???? Starting to believe Rat Queens was a fluke.

Did Aspen dig up an old drawing of Harley from Turner and decide to sell as a variant? Isn't that a dick move?
Head looks disproportionate to the body, though. Like way too small or something.

The Artgerm one is my cell phone wallpaper. I like the March one a lot, too. And then the one of Harley in the Bombshells style by Ant Lucia.

A little bit, yeah. The action pose in the second cover kind of makes it more subtle, though.
Holy crap it has been selling as a print and the copyright for 2003 is still on it loooool.
Bad form.

100% digital since early 2012.
Well, not 100%, because that one issue of Silver Surfer was a fucking joke on CMX.

He's been done with this for months?? Wow.
The lack of meaningful characterization is pretty inexcusable in that case.

me. And I almost regret it everytime I see the discounts for physical direct subscriptions. But then I remember I have nowhere to stick longboxes and don't want comics with ads in them. Plus, Comixology's Guided View is great for reading comics on the phone.
Its also a mini

Go for Time Runs Out. Really fun arc. Black Science hardcover binding is poop.

+1 for Time Runs Out

Not sure if you need to be a member or not to see those pics.
But yes the binding is amazing and probably the next binding for any book sub 30 books besides hellboy

Nope. Digital is.....
Cheaper
Books take up less space
Don't have to drive 45 minute to the nearest LCS or wait for mail orders
More portable cuz I take 600+ Image issues with me where ever I go
I don't have to worry about physical condition of my books

Never.
1. My entire library is with me all the time.
2. Comics look so much better on a good tablet. The colors pop so much. When FCBD comes around and I have to deal with physical copies for a brief time before those show up digitally, it feels like a big downgrade and bums me out.
3. Being able to read in the dark is awesome. Makes bedtime reading so much more convenient when you don't have to think "I want to leave the light on to read, but don't want to turn it off when I'm falling asleep".
4. So much space freed up in my room. And thank god I got rid of all that clutter before my upcoming move. Nothing makes you hate physical comics more than moving.
5. I buy things once and that's it. No more buying issues of some things to stay current, trade-waiting other things, and re-buying collected editions of things I already have in singles. I just do 100% singles digitally.
6. Kinda the same as the last one, but no more worrying about what's available in what format. One thing is only trades, another is only small hardcovers, another is only in oversized hardcovers, but it's glued binding...it's an end to all of that bullshit.
7. No more dealing with things like printer errors or books with thin page that get wavy pages from air moisture.
8. Constant amazing sales. It's hard to keep up.
9. You can get a lot of new books as early as 3am Eastern on Wednesday.
10. Easy screenshotting for posts, avatars, wallpaper, etc.
I actually started selling some of books already. Reading these thick omnibus make me realize how easy it would be to read it all on an iPad
You need to be a member it would seem.
Awesome. Glad they did this one right. Gives me hope for Low eventually.

I opted to wait for the answer to this very question before buying.

Oh, and I made thousands selling hardcovers and omnibuses after I switched.
Go to the Cbr forums under collected editions. Some guy posted a pic by pic of the binding and inside
Edit: on mobile so I can't really post like I want to
Ok went with Time Runs out and the DCBS Variant Deadly Class. Will probably get Infinity and Black Science next time.

You know Infinity happens first right?

Deadly Class comes out a lot more frequently than Low. I don't know how long it would take for them to have enough issues of Low for one of those big hardcovers.
Yea I have all the single issues and Marvel Unlimited. Just really liked Infinity and have been meaning to pick it up. After seeing the Black Science binding, ill probably pass on that though. That does look really bad.

Pretty much all digital now, apart from some books I like to buy as keepsakes. I have a few left that I want to buy like the Secret Six trades, the second Hawkeye OHC and the Gotham Central omnibus, but otherwise I'm mostly complete. I only have one bookshelf and it's full to bursting given that it houses my novels, non-fiction and RPG manuals as well. I generally want less stuff, not more. Probably shouldn't be buying figures either but one crisis at a time (I bought a Rock Candy Harley today, so we're at 0 days again).
Mostly read stuff on my second monitor these days. I have terrible trouble with my shoulder right now so lying in bed is far worse than sitting down. I actually use the grips on my Steam Controller to turn the pages since it's easier than using a mouse right now.
I had not read any comics for weeks before today because I was cheesed off with the hobby and life in general, but today I've read Justice League Rebirth, Doctor Who: Supremacy of the Cybermen and I'm starting to dig into the Star Trek Comics Humble Bundle. I got a huge kick out of the Best of the Borg collection having The Worst of Both Worlds which I read as a kid. Pretty sure that was one of the stories that kickstarted my thing for alternate timelines along with Days of Future Past and the episode of BTAS where Barbara gets hit with fear toxin and imagines a terrible future where she dies and Batman and Jim Gordon are at war with each other. I'm not sure I'll read all of it, the Gold Key stuff sounds awful, but a lot of the rest looks interesting. As a massive, massive fan of the Star Trek: New Frontier novels, more of Peter David writing Trek is always welcome.

So Zemo is the one behind all the controversy, huh? lol
What transpired in the events after the first Civil War?
I know Cap gets assassinated and then Falcon and Bucky take up his cause. But when does Steve Rogers return from the grave?
That book deserves so much better too.
I will keep you mind when I sell my Gotham and hawkeye

Cheaper? How? Besides the occasional Comixology sale on a series you are interested in, buying monthlies is the same price as physical? Or do I not know about something?

Nothing occasional about those sales. There are like six running at any given time. Every Monday is a Marvel sale, and that's never the only Marvel sale of the week. Image does so many sales on their current top books that I never buy them new anymore.
But even outside of sales, normal cover prices on Image, DC, and some other small publishers drop to $1.99 pretty fast.
