I'm thinking about making a separate community thread for people to discuss comic books, is there any interest in that? Is anyone interested in reading comics and then talking about them?

I can't make the thread tonight because i didn't read any comics today so all i'd be able to discuss is the Warriors winning tonight, that's why i post here.

it was civilized at first, then the next hour is nothing but flared tempers and shit. It's certainly something to remember. It's our podcast so I'll upload it soon.

yeah i might as well accept it. Nintendo had a really lackluster event at E3. What really got my goat was that expectations ran high and there were awful reactions. Inexcusable.

I am legit shook.

But eh I'm a blind optimist, but on the one hand there's IDW D&D and there's Orcstain.
In retrospect though, what we did get from them are still good.

Only if you agree to read the books I like. Otherwise, pass.
 
I wonder why they kept the left third of that gif static.
Because they're bad at gif
But why do artificial/pureblood heartless turn other people in to pureblood/artificial? Does it vary?


lol
Heartless turn people into Heartless. I think it depends on how they get turned or by what kind of Heartless they get turned that dictates it.
Nearly all touching moments coming from disney properties ain't no coincidence. As soon as Nomura tries to insert his creations into the story it turns to muck. Dude thinks he can spin a narrative supported solely by rule of cool. Bleah

Here's hoping that there wont be a Gummi Ship this time.
Gummi Ship had a purpose. In the first game, it made you feel like you were actually traveling to the worlds, which was a cool feeling. As opposed to a world map. Made the universe feel more...connected, in a way. In KH2, they were just super fun shooter sections that I enjoyed.

Honestly, I don't expect a Gummi Ship segment this time, but who knows. I also would never have called transforming keyblades, but since Nomura sees fit to radically alter lore constantly, the rules don't fucking matter anymore.

At least a company like Platinum embraces ridiculousness. Nomura tries to spin all of it into some kind of philosophical life lesson. It doesn't work that way.
it spiraled

We should be good now that the NBA finals is over and E3s Co confs are over. Well I hope so. Plus it's Wednesday.

People talk about a cliffhanger at the end of Trees #8, but I'm not sure what that's even supposed to be.

Anyway still thinking about that book... so good.

My only complaint is that they
ended the Shen romance angle pretty abruptly and for obvious reasons. What was the point? Unless they're going to bring the dude back to life as some angle to do with the spores

Chew ends at 60 I think. So another year or so. I read it in trades but it started losing a bit of steam for me at about vol 7. I am waiting for it to be complete too.
 
You know, it's nice and all that they changed the worst line in Batgirl #37 for the trade, but the art there is still a bit iffy and ideally Babs would have used "they" instead of "he" on the very next page.

I don't remember, can you remind me what the worst line was?
 
Black Canary was so fantastic.

I was legit mad that
her shows kept getting ruined.

That's top tier and economical storytelling at its finest. Fletcher/Stewart/Cloonan for new DC EIC.
 
Just read Black Canary as well, and just like the preview, I really loved it. Wu's art with Loughridge's colors is perfect for the tone of the book and I can't praise it enough. The use of colors during Dinah's screams is seriously brilliant.

The story is definitely different than what you would expect from the preview as well. Very interested in seeing where this goes in future issues. Very strong start.

It was "But you're a--" after the mask came off. It was changed to "So you're the--".

Oh I do remember that. It was terrible the first time :/

Hitch's JLA is THE BOMB. Like, yeah, it's not the most original story, but Hitch draws the fuck out of it. It rules.

Can I jump in here and not feel lost? I'd love to follow the main DC story.

I bought Martian Manhunter due to the art. I really hope I didn't fuck up.

No DC talk allowed. Starfire #1 is the only DC first issue i gave a pre-order for as a trial.I would have chose Black Canary too but co-writer of Batgirl, a book i don't think is written well, didn't sell me on it.

dcbs order arrives Friday, I will read things soon.
