Brian Wood on Moon Knight?
Good fucking night.
Good fucking night.
You don't quit on a book with a team of dudes that has Sun Wukong the monkey king on it fighting a city that resides on the back of a dragon

I thought people enjoyed Wood on X-Men, but now hate him? Am I wrong?
Also, DC not letting
, as much publicity as they want for making other characters gay, different races, hell, even Canadian, they can't do this? It's not like she's an A tier character, so it wouldn't destroy the franchise. Maybe if
takes over shit will get done.
Edit: that Supergirl costume is pretty damn awesome, she should switch permanently.
Also, DC not letting
Kate and Maggie get married is bullshit
Nocenti

They don't like him because his favorite movie is Predator. It's a great movie imo.
Man, my comic purchasing friend is no longer picking up the X-men Omnibuses I thought he was, so now the Wolverine and the X-men one and the Uncanny X-Force one are back on my potential plate. Wolverine and the X-men has the awesome bonus of being new enough for extra discount. However, the Uncanny X-Force one is apparently not in stock on InStockTrades?
Anyway, gotta decide if I want to take the plunge on a ton of comics in a semi irresponsible manner...

Yeah that is fine. I'd spoiler Canadian aswell because screw Canada.
The moment when
Batwoman calls Maggie Mags and asks her to marry her is incredibly sweet. It's a shame dc stood in the way of it. They will now do the futures end harley issue about her marrying Joker and no fuss will be made. Fucking sucks.

Wood's X-Men was boring as hell. Much like most of what he writes.
He CAN write a good series (I enjoyed his Conan run throughout), but they're few and far between.
Nothing terrible, just bland.

1. URL says that it's the cover for Superman/Wonder Woman #10, not Batman/Superman #33.
2. Lame.

Okay, it didn't even occur to me when I typed that out.
I'm of two minds over that. It's crappy he did it, but I wouldn't think twice about buying his work if I enjoyed it.

Read all my books for the week.
Best of the week:
DC - Green Arrow 32
Marvel - Moon Knight 4
Indie - Tie - Nailbiter 2 & The Woods 2
Green Arrow overall book of the week. I'm excited for this new arc and it's the same art team but the book had a fresh feel with new color theme.

I would read the shit out of a dark Josie and the Pussycats comic
I know it's such a small thing but he said he was a noob to DC so it's possible he doesn't know what shitty thing dc pulled on them. Also it hangs over the story once that issue happens. :/.
Maybe it's not a spoiler and I'm being weird.
Batwoman is still good by the way.

Don't know why I typed #33 anyways. Even that doesn't work. Tired I guess.

I should catch up, it was one of the few DC books I really liked, but I never gave th new team a shot.

I'll put it like this. His scandal was more interesting than his work at Marvel.
You should. They have made the best of a bad situation. They even wrapped up the dropped arc in the most recent annual. It was decent and didn't feel tacked on.
all my covering was for naught.You know what's shitty. The first 4 volumes of Batwoman including elegy are hardcover and the most recent one they didn't do a hardcover. Leaving me with 4 hardcovers and a soft cover.

was Wood's Ultimate X-Men any good? His Adjectiveless X-men stuff was boring but the Ult. stuff actually seemed cool.

Uhhhhh. Wut? The most recent volume was This Blood Is Thick. I got it in hardcover. Did DC not put out a hardcover on that side of the pond?
Not exactly... I only know that DC, but I don't knowwouldn't let Batwoman marry and the creative team left because of itor any of the actual details. So thanks.whom she was going to marry
Spoiler tags are FUNdamental!
It's a Canadian, if you can believe that.
What is the world coming to.
What the fuck. I just checked amazon and there it is. It wasn't there when I was buying it and my store told me they didn't list one.
Fuck sake.

Adventure Time - The Flip Side #6:
Ugh, what a missed opportunity. The art is the redeeming factor for this one, and it's still just "eh". I'm disappointed in spending cash for this.
Original Sin #3:
Wow. What? Wow.
That was great! I mean, what the hell. Didn't see it coming. Also, I wonder what Spidey saw...
Ultimate Spider-Dude #2:
That's not Peter. Peter isn't an ass 24/7.
That's a clone, Chameleon, or
.

Next payday I'll grab them then. Anything else by DC that's really good aside from Batman?

Yeah it was pretty cool. They looked like something out of Little Big Planet. Lots of texture.
You guys make it easy for me. Pick up Harley Quinn and I'd say Batgirl or at the very least the recent Annual #2. That book was emotional.
Also Superman Wonder Woman plus Wonder Woman.

I fully expected you to say Catwoman too. I'll give Batgirl a chance.

Genres...
Teen slasher?
Conspiracy mystery?
Lovecraftian horror?
Psychological terror?
Is Josie really a patient in an insane asylum and the Pussycats are her fellow inmates trying to escape the madness through music and the solving of a horrific mystery at the heart of the madhouse?
Oh, well that bodes very well!
I don't recommend bad books written by awful writers. I understand my vice and need to read that book but I won't pull others down into the madness with me. With that said, the first arc that was drawn by Guillem March pre Queen Nocenti is good stuff and a fun read. But the second you see Queen Nocentis name on the cover bail the fuck out.
If you don't read Batman and Robin you should fix that. Tomasi and Gleason are doing great character work.
Bruce making the voice mail of Damien talking from old recordings to give to Carrie was heartbreaking.
Those Ben-Day dots.

I do remember it originally being solicited as a TPB. They probably changed their minds later and decided to do a hardcover release. Maybe sales were strong enough to warrant it. The other possibility, of course, is that you're actually future Messi, and you traveled back in time from a year in the future when the hardcover is out of print and only the paperback is available.

wood's ultimate x-men was the best ultimate x-men run since brian k vaughan.
Wait, is this a legitimate possibility? Did I travel back in time?
I know Korupt posted this Guillem March commission a few days ago but I wanted to post it again.
I just want a Harley/Catwoman/Sirens book with art by Guillem March again.
Yes, I think that's the most likely explanation.
Wait, had Marvel been doing these with shorter runs?
I am from the future and I was told to tell you guys that #YearofRemender ends with him getting Book of the year and that Legion of Superheroes is still shit in this time period and nobody reads it.
One more thing, Bitch Planet comes out and is awesome.
