This is so true, but I want this stuff digitally.

I'm in the same boat but my excuse is that I'm going on vacation at the end of the month.

Only problem is that I've been using the "going on vacation so I need this" excuse for about a month.

Oh my god, this is totally the excuse I just used.
 
Even worse is that I'm on my ipad digital high so it's pretty bad. On top of it I probably won't even use it much. Maybe on the beach. But I need $100 in book and app games anyways.

Your vacation is going to be hella boring so you'll need a lot of stuff to read so it's still cool.

You guys won't even know I'm gone. I'm obsessively glued to my phone. Half the time I'm positing here I'm running at the gym or posting between my sets. I only ever slow down while I'm at work.

Rookie. I never slow down. How else do you expect to become the top poster. This is not a game it's a lifestyle.

Fuck Grandharrier.

Yeah man fuck work I've got Velvet to obsess about.

Edit: Just so I'm 100% aware. NYCC tickets do go on sale tomorrow, right? I'm going to skip Thursday because fuck Thursday, and do the 3 day pass thing.
 
But Supergirl is right there...

God damn it Messi do you even time travel bro? She was OBVIOUSLY affected by Red Kryptonite which made her forget who she was, wear a lead mask and gain the power to use x-ray vision through it, and help save the Legion from being replaced by Proteans.

But really, which of us haven't had that happen to them? I swear, it happens to me once or twice a year at least.
 
The best part of Silver Age stories is that there is usually a pretty good chance you don't know what the resolution is going to be because it's so fucking random. I mean, sure, after awhile certain things are telegraphed (if it looks like someone went rogue they really didn't), but anything involving say, Superboy or Girl with their bullshit I can do super-anything powers, can hand wave away anything.

BONUS: Who is the Insect Queen of Smallville?!

 
Got home from Comic Shop and got my delivery.

This is what i got today : Translucid #1-2
Cyclops #1-2
Moon Knight #1-4
FBP TP #1

This is what is still somewhere between America and Germany : Nailbiter,Deadly Class 1-4(i think it was 4 volumes),Trees #1 and Wicked & Divine #1.

I hate to live in germany when it comes down to comics.
 
I've seen pornos that start like this.

Dont doubt this in the least.

Lol. You're really making me tempted to grab one of those Legion Archives.

They are pretty cheap aside from #5 and #8!

Rich has been posting rumors about the "DC Band-Aid" event for a couple of weeks now. It seems like almost every day he posts something new without anything other than "anonymous sources."

-conceived to cover April and May 2015, the two months required to move DC operations from NY to CA
-everything is being written and illustrated well in advance of the actual move
-Tom Defalco Dan Didio and Marie Javins are coordinating the event
-comprised of forty one-shots forty-eight comics: twenty two-part stories, plus an eight-issue weekly
-recruiting talent from inside AND outside of DC's stable: indie creators, digital talents, returning fan-favorites, and Marvel people are being sought
-described by one anonymous creator as "a love letter to DC Comics fans"
-to be officially unveiled at the SDCC
-DC hasn't decided on an official name for it yet, trying to ferret out leaks
-will be an in-continuity event; not an Elseworlds or imaginary tale
-the overall idea behind the event has changed several times already, and writers/editors are confused as to what it's supposed to be about
-story draws inspiration from the gaming division, with "hero versus hero" stories
-involves New52 and Pre- New52 versions of the heroes engaged in a Secret Wars, Contest of Champions type encounter

Also Messi, since you're used to reading awful stories do you want to read the awful one that I wrote? Apparently I'm overselling the awfulness.

Sure, I can't imagine it's as bad as Queen Nocenti.
 

Kipp

but I am taking tiny steps forward
Finally got around to starting Waid's Daredevil run. I'm really liking it so far. It's so different from any other Daredevil I've read before.

Also, I totally dig Paolo Rivera's art.

As much as I like the lighthearted tone of Ms. Marvel...I'd like for there to be at least a major arc being planned for it.

No longer boycotting the Wolfenstein franchise

It sounds like a horrid abuse of editorial oversight with just a dose of terrible fan fiction thrown in for good measure.

Wouldn't put it past dc's editorial staff
says somebody who's enjoyed lots of the new 52
