Yes, "read like"....
Anybody who spends any amount of time here would get a great idea of what we read. We all post out lists on Sunday and we discuss a massive range of books and storylines all week. I like to think we are a really welcoming community. We have helped many people who have come here looking to start reading books, only a few hours ago someone was given a list of big titles. There was also the surge of requests during Captain America and X-Men's movie releases.
Hell, a little over a year ago you folks helped me pick out new books to get back into comics and now I'm here all the time.

Well I just finished my order form for August, and Amazing X-Men, Wolverine and the X-Men, and The Avengers fell under the axe. JL3000 just squeaked by for another month thanks to last issue's shockers, and She-Hulk has until the end of this arc to stay my hand.
On the other hand, Cyclops, Elektra, Hulk, and Sensation Comics (first issue, anyway) made it aboard.
If it weren't for Cyclops and Uncanny Avengers I'd be completely Marvel mutant-free for the first time since the Whedon era.

There are no spoilers in my fanfic, no.

Unlikely to be anything so drastic.
What hath we wrought?
You don't knowingly spoil, you mean, right?
We failed you.

Pls PM anyway. I must read this.
Return of Bruce Wayne and then onto Inc. No need for anything else.
Somebody here recommended Catwoman. Let that sink in.
A year ago was 12 issues ago. Queen Nocenti was already on the book. WHO THE FUCK DID THAT? STEP FORWARD.

Only a matter of time. Especially with the reboot DIsney ordered.....l
Look at little bright side there is brah. If you promise to be a corporate go-to guy and hand in your resume right before a reboot, you could be the next Charles Soule. It's time for you to be an All-New-New Young Gun.
Yep. The only way they can get away with it long-term is to up the page count by a good number.

Come on bro. You know you're going to bite on some of their books. They've got too many claws in you at this point!!!

I'll do it on one-offs if there's 40-50 pages or something. But if they're doing this so they can finally get to that $4.99 regular price they've had their eyes on, that's the day I drop all corporate books in favor of trade-waiting, and go indy-only with my monthlies...

This 4.99 shit is gonna make me reduce my list even more.
Damn you Marvel. I like wasting my money on you!

Ok. I'm tempted to check this out too.

Spike, is your fanfic open source? Can I write fanfiction as part of your shared universe?
I say this without having read it or knowing what it is yet. But I'll beat Rafa to superstardom at this rate.

Learn to draw son.

If Khoi Pham can draw, so can you.
What do I look like, Frank Miller? I'm a Bendis at best.
Call Pulido. I can't imagine he is all that expensive. He'll probably cost more once he finishes his face drawing class.
Look where that got him!!!
He is just the bro I'm looking for. Someone get me Laura Allred on colors.
I'm not joking, I have a legitimate comic pitch that could be huge. Or at the very least canceled after the first arc is done.
I'd rather it be canceled than picked up by Brian Wood.
Living the dream!

Wait, what? Disney wants a reboot? If they make it so Mickey & Donald are real people in this universe, I'm done with Marvel. If nothing else, a Marvel reboot could be the perfect jumping off point. For everything.

Ultimate FF canceled at issue #6, killed faster than a low selling DC series.

Hey is Batman Eternal any good?
Jason Fabok's art in New 52 Batman really caught my eye and I want to see more of his stuff.

It's multiple artists and I am really enjoying it. Love any time Guillem March gets to draw Catwoman.

I've been digging it. And I'm really looking forward to seeing where it goes. If the Batman #28 preview was anything to go by.

Double dipping.

Ah I didn't realize that it was a changing artist thing but that makes sense.
Interesting. Doesn't look like it's collected in a trade yet so I'll have to wait it out a bit but oh well. Thanks for the impressions though.
How about Detective Comics? I see Fabok had a 14 issue stint from 13-25 & 27 that could be attainable if people recommend it.
I've just started reading "Green Lantern / Green Arrow" and it's actually quite good. Some time ago I decided that I wanted to read all the major pre Geoff Johns runs on the Green Lantern, and I already read the first Chronicles trade, Zero Hour, Emerald Twilight/Dawn and Final Night. I still want to read The Death and Return of Superman (because of the Coast City thing) and the Grant Morrison's run on JLA since some people said was one of the best places to read about Kyle Rayner as a Green Lantern.
Am I missing something good or impotant that I didn't mentioned?

According to Amazon, the first Batman Eternal trade is due out at the end of the year. $39.99 for the first 20 issues.

Let's talk about this when you're done, it's one of my favorite comics ever.

eh, not bad. I was digging through my longbox and found his Daredevil #10.1 that he drew, because i remember not hating it. Nope, it's still Khoi goddamn Pham. The colorist is trying to carry him so hard though, but... it can't hide what it truly is

If only my psychic premonitions would show me winning lottery numbers. >:|
Oh great, now nobody'll want to read it.
Why not, people do all the time. Some of them even get paid to do it!
I regret nothing!
That's not a bad price, $2 an issue.
