There's an audience for a lot of illegal shit out there. Who's to say what entertainment is?

Within reason, he means. Stop taking it to extremes to make your point.

I just bought and read the first issue of this controversial comic. Couldn't even finish it and just skimmed the last few pages. Another comic trying to be controversial and "adult" by showing blood, gore, tits and dick. Another comic trying to be sophisticated and intellectual by being "adult". This "adult" material just comes off as childish. It's the shock rock of the comic world.

I still stand by my original thinking though. I hate when groups, be it the majority or the minority try to get "entertainment" censored, pulled, etc. If there is an audience for something in the entertainment world, let that audience have their product.

I'm of the opinion that those types of people have plenty of shock comics to read from other pubs.

Wierd it was $0.25 on release. This might be an error where after a month and the price auto drops to $1.99 and the issue being cheaper fucked it up. I'd assume the price drops for image books weekly are automatic.

 

[LordOfLore]

Ultimate Spider-Man with miles right up until the last issue.

Did you like Peter showing up again pre-Secret Wars?

Yeah, I remember seeing it at the right price when it dropped. I should have picked it up then.

Going to send them a note over $1.74!

I messaged them on twitter. Just wait and they will fix it.

I'm not a fan of Peter so....I didn't like all that. I'm all about Miles doing shit. The most interesting thing to me about Spider-man is the other spiders.

The 3rd issue of Spencer & Locke was the best one yet. Their take on Spaceman Spiff was very well done.

Young Animal sale on CMX, first 3 issues of all series plus bug #1. Also Morrison doom patrol, old shade ect.

 

[Malyse]

Zachary Quinto as Namor.

Poor Araña.

 

[Sandfox]

DC really doesn't like to do $1 sales on new books anymore lol. It's cheaper to just wait for the trades.

 

[Messi]

Allred said on twitter that an omnibus of his Silver Surfer run is highly likely, if the stars align. Very excited to have it all collected.

I would buy that if I didn't already have the trades.

Very cool. I like his run on Sufer.

 

[Messi]

Credit where credit is due. Slott is also doing great work on that series.

I like his style on Sufer even though it's pretty much Doctor Who.

Nice sale for the Vertigo stuff. I've been really interested in Pollack's run on Doom Patrol so I think I might go for that since it's not so long.

For the YA stuff, they could've probably done the #1s for a dollar or something. I'd say Cave and Mother Panic are the weakest of the line and even they're pretty good. Shade and Doom Patrol are just joys to read each month and Bug has been good so far.

Morrison's Doom Patrol and Milligan's Shade are, like, best ever status so definitely check those out if you want some good-ass comics. Easily some of the best work by either author and they are just fantastic. Shade was never completely corrected in trade, so it's actually one of the easiest ways to purchase it.

 

[Malyse]

I want a Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur game.

I want a canon Spider-Gwen game. That would be the perfect way to flesh out her world.

Oh and a Mother Panic game.

 

[Durrzerker]

Good to see some Jess love. I actually only found out about her through Taskmaster (read: how I find out about anyone) but fell in love with her latest run. Sad it's over but a great note to go out on. Her and Roger are super cute.

 

[LordOfLore]

If you don't pick up the old Doom Patrol I'll be mad at you(yes, YOU). If you own it physically you're excused.

Folks need to stop messing with that.

Gwen has a cool look, but the book hasn't worked for me.

 

[Malyse]

So is Occupy Avengers ending? Cause it feels like it's ending. Also, that was a dirty way to do a character that had his own book just last year.

 

[tim1138]

They need to get Silver Age Doom Patrol up on CMX

 

[LordOfLore]

I still have no idea why they titled the book that. It was years late.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Why did that book even exist in the first place?

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

After the events of the Clone Conspiracy, is there any hope for Ben Reilly?

 

[exmachina64]

I still have no idea why they titled the book that. It was years late.

Just like Marvel.

Why did that book even exist in the first place?

Because Occupy's relevant!

Right, guys?

...

...Guys?

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

After the events of the Clone Conspiracy, is there any hope for Ben Reilly?

There was never any hope, to begin with.

 

[Tragicomedy]

Ben Reilly is a sweet hoodie in search of a character.

Also, this is NeoGAF.

I wanted to read the crossover issues with Nighthawk.

Have you tried watching WWE lately? It's been complete trash for a couple months now.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Watch NJPW. You can thank me later.

 

[LordOfLore]

...I shouldn't try watching wrestling just cause I'm in the US, right?

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

Watch NJPW. You can thank me later.

You should also watch the first season of Lucha Underground.

 

[Malyse]

I wanted to read the crossover issues with Nighthawk.

Hmm. Yeah you should read *all* of Occupy. The latest issue was big on Nighthawk.

Saga, what the fuck was that?

So, Nighthawk and Nightshade joined Hawkeye's team?

 

[OrangeAtlas]

So, Nighthawk and Nightshade joined Hawkeye's team?

They team up briefly and Nightshade joins the team as a permanent member.

They did him dirty though in the Secret Empire tie-in

SPOILERS

Spoiler

Nighthawk gets killed off-panel out of costume and Nightshade dons the suit.

 

[Aizo]

That CMX Young Animal sale is bad. Don't fall for it. You'll likely come out ahead if you just buy a trade instead. I bet there will be better prices during the comic-con sale.

 

[Tragicomedy]

I don't watch wrestling. I do more mature things like read comics.

[Pachimari]

Now I'm curious, which comics do I go to to learn about the origins of Jessica Drew, Miguel and Mayday?

I assume this is the run to read for Miguel O'Hara?
This one for Jessica Drew?
