COMICS! |OT| June 2016. The Manhattan Project

Check out Remmender's Uncanny X-force, its a great stand alone story. Then if your looking for a good Avengers story check out Hickman's run on Avengers/Secret Avengers.
Keep your eyes out for a free month of Marvel Unlimited. Its a great way to check out Marvel's huge library.
I've gotta track down issue #2 first! One of the shops in my area went out of business so the other one is basically sold out of everything all the time now. Will see if I can find the other Rosenberg book.
Also, no way in hell, there are a billion Stray Bullets! Unless I can get it through my library, then we'll talk.
I think I'll stick with Green Lantern books, Vision and continue exploring some indies though.
Thanks! Lucifer was pretty interesting in Sandman so I'll think I'll check that out next.
Oh you one of them physical cats

This just shows that Deodato is the worst.

What an odd reference.

Giant Days #1 - #4 was pretty cool. Bit of an abrupt start and the series seemed to be heading in a "lol random" direction but the characters and humour found their footing fairly quickly. Loved the art.
At least Doom unmasked doesn't have a toupee.

I like that his Tony Stark was Timothy Dalton and Mary Jane was Liv Tyler

Josh Holloway as Tony Stark always annoyed me with how obvious it was. Stupid Salvador Larocca.
What madness am I reading

Between his obvious casting of actors as characters and how overly dark (maybe that comes down to the colorer or inker, but I feel like it always happens with his art) his work is, I'm just not a fan.

it's for the greater good. Better to rip the band-aid off early than wait years later and start changing it.
I can't justify the expense of a tablet or I'd be all about digital comics.

I read a majority of my comics on my desktop since that is how I started with manga.
If I ever buy a pro 12.9 that would be the day I go full digital.

That doesn't sound like comfortable reading.
I have a 27 inch monitor, and comfortable chair that goes back. I read all of stray bullets in one sitting like that.

That's pretty much me these days. My tablet is approaching the Old Yeller phase and I can't really justify a new one. Especially when I badly need a new phone and some other stuff as well.
It's not so bad. I have two monitors (both only 24 inch though) and my desk chair's my favourite chair anyway. Could be worse.

I get too easily distracted when I try to read on my desktop.
Dc is finally doing matching spines for a lot of their silver stuff comnig. looks great
Until they redesign it when they start putting the new logo on there.
new books are rocking the old logo too. but the dc logo is a minor thing that won't be noticed when you put the books together for a shelf pic

I like to read comics in bed.
Read most of today's books. Hillbilly and Black Panther were the standouts. The new Jupiter's Legacy series started out pretty well, too. Still have to read Mockingbird and East of West, but couldn't fight the urge to get back to Hellboy. Damn, The Third Wish was such a good story.

Riri's side of the teaser looks more interesting IMO. We'll see what kind of books Marvel has planned though.

You are about to fall down a very deep hole. Good luck climbing back out.

Ooo Gamora ongoing back on deck? Elektra maybe? Who's the kid in front of Prowler? Odinson but no Jane? Should we be worried about her?? Ditto for Cap Falc! Is that still Amadeus as Hulk?
??
Carol wins
That's Moon Girl.

Oh. I dig her outfit. Sadly I did not dig her series
Hey GAF, how can you figure out the status of reprints for a comic issue?
Basically I was too late to the shop on release day to get Superman Lois and Clark 8 and ever since then online it's always out of stock or it's over 9 bucks which is bloody ridiculous. I feel like I'm shit out of luck thanks to scalpers because it was the last issue in the series. Someone bought the whole series out at my shop before I could come in the day it came out :/
All I can really find is that it got a second reprinting but from checking online shops it didn't seem to change anything. Is there some obvious resource with this kind of information that I don't know of?
My "local" comic book store is terrible when it came to custom ordering shit so the only other chance I can think to get it is to ask some other shop I don't regularly go to to order it, if that's even possible with this issue. I really liked the series and had 1-7 so it bums me out to never have 8 thanks to scalpers.

yup, especially with $4.99 books being a normal thing.

It would certainly be interesting. They obviously have no incentive to do so with the books that are already dominating sales charts, but it sounds like those books might not be relaunching anyway. I would be more open to trying say a Prowler book if it was 2.99.
checked the usual places, and couldn't find any.
Call up some of the comic shops around and outside your city,

I feel like CMX sales should more than make up for the discounts you are getting from buying physical copies.
CMX sale>steam sale>dcbs=ist sale>amazon sale.
cmx even gives away free books around the year.
