It's making my head hurt just reading that.
Alright comic-gaf, I've been out of the loop on comics for a few months now. The last thing I added to my pull list was Rumble (which is great), but I need some new books. I'm currently subscribed to:
East of West
Black Beetle (which may never actually have another issue? It's been 1+ year)
Black Science
Prophet (which is almost over and takes forever to come out)
Punisher
Rumble
Saga
Sandman Overture (which takes forever to come out)
Shutter
Southern Bastards
Uncanny X-Men
I was getting X-Force, Multiversity, and X-Men, but the first two are over and I canceled X-Men because it was terrible.
Anyway, what is the new hotness? Do you guys love or hate Saga nowadays? Is Nameless good? Are there any series that started recently or are going to start soon that I should hop on before they get too far along?

Really makes you want the plot to be more simpler, "clean" in a sense.

Got my tablet, I finally get to read this. I'm a full digital convert except Scott Snyders Batman run.
The bad news is, I'm afraid to break the news to my LCS. It's gonna hurt.
Come back Korupt...
Does look nice tho..
LOL
Yeah I'm glad I decided to Email my LCS to pull in for me yesterday. I have pulled a ton of books because of you's guys.
I ordered #1 (DCBS).
That's the perfect network for that show

Comixology must have heard us talking about Chew because it's on sale now. I went ahead and bought the bundle for $44. Also got Edge Spiderverse #2 (Gwen). Eventually I'm going to have stop spending so much money. Eventually.......
from what i understand, Prophet is over
Prophet: Earthwar is going to be a trade paperback that comes out in Fall and wraps the story up

Prophet just got to a point where I was more and more lost with every issue.
Coriolanus

Course there are. Just look at 50 Shades of Grey. Fanfic realm is ripe for lifting.
Yeah, basically Parallax from Zero Hour was sent back to Crisis on Infinite Earths and undid it.
Now everything happened is the long and short of it. The only rules are what's convenient at the time.
You could make an argument based on The Multiversity that anything that's not in mainline DC continuity RIGHT NOW is just in another Multiverse.

I think it might be a slow burn series but the fight in issue two was godly.

VR comics. You are now inside the panels and can walk around the scene in it but everything is static.

He hasn't slapped Valeria yet. That's about the best thing you can say about Reed's parenting.
I can't leave the mall without it being a $50+ evening when we go. It's really awful and I go almost every weekend during the summer :/

Oh, before I forget! Now halfway through the last Bendis DD complete collection. He's actually digging pretty deep, it seems. I had actually forgotten that that Angel existed! And I hadn't heard of The Defender, though I'm guessing he existed prior as well (hard to look up since you just get the Defenders, like the team). For that matter, in the story with the group telling stories, who actually was that woman's husband? Couldn't peg that one if he was supposed to be an existing character...

Ugh both those movies suck. Would probably stop watching movies if that was experience too. Avatar is pretty I guess.

Too expensive? Madness. I usually pay about £9 a ticket. Pretty good for 2 hours + of entertainment especially when it costs me £25+ to watch Liverpool.
I remember enjoying both of them. I guess that shows how many movies I see. Haha

Since I see you're reading Black Science, have you read Deadly Class or Low? They're really great. Deadly Class is definitely my favorite Image ongoing.
I'm behind on Nameless but I've enjoyed what I've read of it.
Sex Criminals is great too.
Infinity Gauntlet #1 was good.
Hey everyone, I've kept from overtly promoting my Kickstarter in the thread, but there's less than 2 weeks to go and we hit a stretch goal today with new art unlocked for all backers.
Appreciate it if you'd give it a look - I won't be posting another signal boost until probably 48 hours out.

Just waiting for my key from GMG. Hope I can get it preloaded in time in between power leveling in FFXIV and 1.5 mpbs connection.

You ain't Irish. Don't be one of those people who claim to be like 1/10th Irish. No one likes that guy.
Can't turn that down. Thanks.
I am like 95% Irish and 5% native Indian. Guaranteed membership unlike GH.

And 100% from Africa at some point, right? So what you're saying is that you're truly black!

Marvel Zombies is up there.
I'd add Weirdworld, MODOK Assassin and Little AvX to this list, too. Zombies and Thors are the two books that feel like they might end up being important to the event.
You could really just buy whatever looks good to you. There have been very few books I wouldn't recommend to fans of the featured characters.
Zombeen is from Africa?
