Things that happened while I was sleeping:

WildStorm art.

The Master Class panel.

Miller and a Superman

It's weird to say that Miller looks "better" in that photo.

They have some apparel based on Remender's books you can preorder until August 7th. I really like the long sleeve Black Science shirt.

 

[CrichtonKicks]

How come no one told John's Hawkman was so good? You've failed me comic GAF

Early '00s Johns was the best. That JSA run was incredible and Hawman fit alongside it so well.

These are pretty rad. I like quite basic t-shirt designs, smaller logas oppose to big ass pics. The kids of the black hole is great but not sure I could rock that shade of blue. I'd probably settle for the white one on the top right if I were to grab one.

It's weird to say anything positive about Miller in 2017.

Get the 6-issue Xombi series from Rossum and Irving. Or Given they're only 99 cents an issue, you can grab the whole WildCATS 3.0 run for $12, which is an interesting read.

Also, World's Funnest (Mr Mxyzptlk and Bat-Mite jump through the multiverse ruining everything) and Doctor 13 (ZZZ-list heroes go up against *very* thinly veiled versions of the DC execs that have abandoned them) are about the same price if you're looking to maximize your BOGO and get a bit obscure and silly-fun meta. Or grab Flex Mentallo if you want some of that Morrison-ness in a small easy-to-buy run.

I love Flex, it's such a great little story and easy to reread. I'll take a look at some of the others, Wildcats was actually something I was already interested in. Was hoping to keep this order pretty cheap so... We'll see lol

In for a deadly class and low shirt

Doesnt he have cancer?

It was rumoured I believe

This was him a year or two ago

Now imagine getting 22 pages a month.

That's why I try my best to only read comics that have already ended. But I do sometimes just pick up a comic here and there when it looks cool and get sucked in. But I just stop when I finish everything that is out.

22 pages a month is tough. Although, the slower you read something the more you do savour it. But thats just not enough for me at all. I'm waiting for all those Rick Remender comics to fishing so I can start them. I did read quite a bit of Deadly Class though. It's incredible how many comics he is writing right now. I love his comics. Is his Venom series really good?

I'm thinking of one of these as my next target, Mind Mgmt, East of West, Prophet, Grayson, Omega Men, Doctor Strange runs of Aaron and Vaughn, or Superior Foes of Spiderman. Any of those really stand out to you?

I also need to start ordering them used, as its so much cheaper, but I just get impatient, with Prime you can just get it the next day, and when you're in the middle of something good its hard to wait. But man, its much cheaper.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

Sorry, I didn't know that.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Yeah I didn't even bother with DKIII

Did anyone here even finish it

Everytime I see TDKIII mentioned I remember it was a thing that happened

 

[Aizo]

I never heard anything about it. I just saw that it released.

 

[Boogiepop]

JLD was awesome though. Well, Lemire and Milligan. DeMatteis...what did you do?

I have never been happier.

There was only three of them and that episode was horrifying.

I like Birds of Prey. Quite a bit.

I really enjoyed Simone's take.

The first arc of Titans might be rough if you're not interested in Wally West, because the entire thing is about him. I am, however, so I really enjoyed it.

Superman
Detective Comics
Nightwing
Green Arrow

All hot fire. I've also been digging:

Batgirl and the Birds of Prey
Titans
Supergirl
JLA

I couldn't stand GLs. At least the first arc. I bailed four issues in. Everyone here says it's gotten a lot better, but I've been burned before

Superman.

Detective Comics, Green Arrow, Superman go from there.

All-Star Batman

Awesome, thanks guys!

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

While I'm not a fan of his works, I'm glad he is recovering from his illness.

 

[Haloid1177]

Time Runs Out is the first time I’ve felt that New Avengers and Avengers are actually books that compliment each other. Loving the time jump and everything with this arc so far.

 

[Messi]

Amanda Conner was on the master-class panel. What has she got to do with that stuff? Is she drawing?

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

Spoiler

Blockbuster is becoming an interesting anti-villain.

 

[Sanjuro]

He still wrote one of the last great Batman books I've read. His stuff is a mixed bag to terrible, but I don't mind picking up his new stuff to take a look.

The fact it's a OGN is good as well since his latest work in issues have been really delayed over time.

Marvel seems lost right now, like trump sitting in a fire truck for made in America week. It's Legacy week, beep beep.

 

[BKatastrophe]

How good was the Earth-2: World's End series? Debating picking it up in the BOGO sale...

Dope as hell. I would read Earth 2 first, though.

IT'S THE BEST RELAUNCH

 

[Brian Fellows]

Just saw the Infinity War footage. It was pretty sweet!

 

[Primethius]

I dropped out of comics for a few months and it feels like I'm struggling to motivate myself to jump back into the humongous backlog. Can anyone point me to a recent DC or Marvel comic that'll hook me right back?

Already have it all in physical trades~

Have you tried Gwenpool?

DC can't even compete.

Potato cam footage has never looked so good.

 

[BKatastrophe]

Then go buck wild. Keep in mind that the final volume of Earth 2 (Vol. 6, I think) is just tie-ins for Earth 2 giving background to events and characters. I highly recommend reading it. I read it before World's End without knowing that, but it helped.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Kodansha is releasing a Ghost in the Shell Anthology book next year. It'll probably be similar to the Attack on Titan Anthology.

Kind of neat. Right now I just want my Akira box set.

 

[Wanderer5]

Lmao

 

[Isak_Borg]

Any of neogaf comic folk in BK?

Friend just opened a shop in Crown Heights and ya'll should check it out Anyone Comics.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

How are the Valerian comics?

 

[Freezasaurus]

How are the Valerian comics?

I flipped through one last week. Very old-timey.

They just started releasing the old books in condensed hardcover editions.

 

[Lashley]

I really want to see the Infinity War footage, but it deserves better than potato quality

Like, do people record this shit on phones from 2005?

 

[LordOfLore]

Tom King's spotlight panel at SDCC.

But he says that he plans to borrow some of Kirby's tricks for his run like starting and closing each issue with Kirby's own words.

King asks the crowd if they've read Watchmen and tells them a story about meeting Dave Gibbons in which Gibbons joked that he gives King the 9 panel grid.

What Marvel characters do you want to write?

King says that he doesn't really care. But he'd love to write the Fantastic Four.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

That will never happen.

You better enjoy that potato cuz Disney ain't surrendering.

Remember when Lemire would never work for DC again?

Repeating his own lines to repeating someone else's lines...

Yes, I do. But given how Marvel is treating the Fantastic Four, a better comparison would be how DC is treating JSA right now.

 

[Vic_Viper]

The one trailer from SDCC that no one is talk g about lol is the new SYFY show from Grant Morrison called HAPPY! The book was really good but super short. Definitely will work better as a show if they handle it right. The trailer doesn't do much to sell it but I'm in nonetheless!

Remember when Rucka said the same thing?

 

[Vic_Viper]

Omg please be real!

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Omg please be real!

It's not. People saw the video of Infinity War and saw Cap with a beard.
