Its in SD tho...
I assume it'll be Kelly Thompson, but I bet Noelle would do a bang-up job on Captain Marvel.
Eh, I'll read it anyways. I am never touching their DH app. Of course, we can always wait and hope they improve their catalogue over time (HD).

Hickman is 90% sitting around, talking, then the last page something happens, and then we get a new issue of the same boring shit. Every thing he does is the same. Just a lot of talking with one page pay off.
God damn he's the worst storyteller in Cape books. It's cool though because he set up a chair gag once in F4.

Cool i just figured out whats wrong.
Supergirl gets a comic in 90s and I come back. Loses her book and I stop caring eventually. Then she got another book with that Loeb stuff and gets me back in. Now she has no book and I'm all ehhh about them except for Jem.
Supergirl makes comics better.

Worst, best, it's all the same. I've always found Hickman and Nocenti pretty interchangeable.
don't do this freeza
you'll go down a violent road to nowhere... a road I call "Violence Road".

I'm pretty sure that if it was a Doom fanfic then the mask wouldn't be the only thing he had removed by now.
What do you mean there are other types of fanfics?

Hickman and dudes like him are the reason I dropped capes. Worst three issues I have read in years and I read Bendis's X-Men books. So glad I read my roommates comics and didn't pay for this shit.
Anyways, Ales Kot's Wolf is looking great.

I think we might have different tastes in comic writers.
I like hickman's talking. I enjoy knowing why these guys are doing what they're doing and how it's going to lead into them punching each other in their faces.
SW1 did a lot to essentially nuke everything. Most of it was nothing but face punching as an end result of everything built up
SW2 established how the world of the event works
SW3 lets us know who Doom and Strange are and why Doom and strange do what they do.
I'm fine with no random face punching for face punching's sake. We're going to get it in time and it'll be great when it happens.

I don't even like Bendis's comics. It's like I've been reading him for so long I just can't stop. Same thing with Millar.

I've really been enjoying the lengthy dialogues in SW. Especially in #3. There's only so much face-punching can do to move a story along.

They just took these books from amazonk. None of the double page spreads work.

Every single book with a double page spread, bro. I'd almost guarantee it. I saw it in fifth Beatle and Plague of frogs vol 1, but you guys got a shit load of reading to do.
Anyone here have evidence of a DH double page spread that actually works?

I'm literally the only person who noticed or knew this, CMX included. Support (and Isak) asked which books! How did they not know this? Kindle has been splitting two page spreads since they started selling comics.
It's every single book with a double page spread. You want me to buy and read every single one for you, guys???

It's just so fucking lazy on CMXs part and negligent on DHs. They clearly only gave CMX permission to reuse Amazonk files on CMX, a platform with different display capabilities and requirements. I'd be willing to bet they provided no source files direct to CMX the way that I'm certain Marvel and DC and everyone else is required to do every week.
And I'm the only person who notices or cares about this shit. No ones going to ask CMX or DH about this. They're going to run the press release and a "Top 10 DH Books You Need To Read" list and that will be it.
I don't know who to blame here really. CMX doesn't have the bandwidth to read every page of every book, Dark Horse wants to keep being negligent wieners and not give CMX what they need to bring the books up to standard.
It's just a bunch of bullshit. All I want to do is read great comics in the best way possible, you jerks.

I tweeted Comixology Support and asked if they'll add the ability to sync DH purchases with them and they said they'd pass along the feedback. Hopefully it works out...

Ah, Dark Horse. Have you ever been described so accurately before?

I'm sure it never occurred to them during the like years between when hellboy was taken off CMX (I still have it from back in the day) and today.
I mean Jesus Christ.
