So it's like Overwatch, then?
It's all speculation at this point.
All the Warriors to do is complain about stuff that applies to them as well.
I see what you did there, being all cheeky.

Lol, wish I could give some advice. My comic shop has a section for posters, and I have a feeling you've probably checked yours by now.

It seems like a lot of online retailers are phasing them out. I still see them at local comic shops sometimes, though. Even when you find a nice piece, they (usually Marvel) will sometimes ruin it by slappig a big logo over some nice art. Personally, I've moved on to art prints. Though they're more expensive and sometimes tricky to get due to limited print runs, they're nicer and much better quality. Secret Panel has a nice assortment, though not a huge selection. Other than that, I would keep an eye on Bottleneck gallery and Mondo to keep informed of any upcoming releases that catch your eye. There isn't a constant stream of comic prints on most sites, but they do pop up.

Probably not too bad for these, but some prints I've seen.... Can go for between $400-$1000 on the aftermarket. The key is to get them before they sell out.

Too rich for my blood.
I still have a bunch of movie posters I got from my cinema job that I never hung up either. I have two of the big banner things from Age of Ultron that are bigger than any wall in my flat. An Iron Man and a Nick Fury. We had about a dozen and raffled them off but two were never collected so I took them home. I had Samuel L Jackson looking out from my balcony window for awhile but I took it down.
The only one I have hanging is the signed DBZ one (Chris Sabat and Sean Schemmel) I got as a Thank You from Manga Entertainment UK for organising the Resurrection of F screenings for Ireland. I meant to hang the IMAX Preview ones from Batman v Superman as well at some point, but I also have a big Wonder Woman one so I might just go with that. And I got a Warcraft one this week but that is a birthday present for a friend who is a massive WoW geek and has wanted stuff for his new man cave.

That page is the sole reason why I even want to bother picking up that book

I'm going to pick up Lazarus in the CMX sale but should I buy the single issues of the TP? Any extra content in either?

The singles have all the family profiles that line the sides of the back matter. Not sure they if they are in the TPB's.
According to Amazon the TPB comes with a 4 page short story that was only available online up to that point.
Wish I could be more help but I've only read the singles.

The Uncanny Avengers #8
Only reason I read this was to fully complete the Standoff order (I know right? Taking me forever), but this was pretty good. Writing was solid and it appears Stegman's art greatly improved since the first issue. Also Wade dealing some hard ether to Tony was pretty sick.

I started reading the book again around then and it's trending up IMO.

Thanks. I think I'll pick up the singles. I prefer my digital comics in singles form anyway.
I'm loving the turtles comics so far. I'm up to the Donatello mini issue and im loving the art and story. Thank you to everyone who recommended it
I have this print and it's numbered 1/250 or some shit.

Yeah I only buy singles.
Also I found the 4 page prequel.

Yeah it's very well done. I'm going to have to start it back up some time even though the jerks don't offer downloadable back ups.
Reis hasn't been announced for anything. Fabok is taking a break and said he's only going to do smaller projects going forward as Darkseid War broke him (he worked 14 hours a day, 7 days a week for the month of April to draw JL 50). Frank is currently working on volume 3 of Batman Earth 1.

Tyrant (or anyone else who owns the volumes), are you able to post images of the table of contents for Locas volumes 3,4 and 5 trades? [Perla la Loca, Penny Century and Esperanza]

I love NML. Of all the mega batman crossovers it's easily my favorite. Now it's not perfect. Given that it's a year long and took over all books not all the art is consistent. You have to just go with the premise that the other heroes would just set back (they try to address this some...). But the result was a great concept that generated some amazing story arcs within this crazy setting.

Yes i loved No Mans Land also.
Overwatch needs a new mode.

This was kind of a bummer with that post of whats to come from Overwatch. All this talk of Heroes and Maps and I'm just wanting to see some attempts at new game types/modes.

Perla la Loca

Need to read more... I'm on Angelitas in Perla la Loca right now. I might read some tonight or tomorrow at least.
How long does HamiltonBook take to ship things by the way? I got my shipping notification on the 13th and haven't gotten my book yet. Their tracking info doesn't update till it gets to the local USPS Center so I have no clue where it is.

I'd be down for a Raven mini now that her costume doesn't look absurd but Wolfman's writing style is so archaic.
RepairmanJack

Yeah, I was already down on that first Zodiac arc. I'll probably just drop it for a little while.
Sad to hear. I mean I'm definitely looking forward to Batman Earth One, but these are some of DC's top artists and it's sad they aren't doing any ongoings right now.
Wonder what Clay Mann is going to work on since he was announced as DC exclusive. Poison Ivy miniseries is done, so.

GA is back!
Raven getting a six issue mini series by Wolfman.
Interesting that they seem to be deaging her to make her more in line with the animated movie.
this shit Rebirth?
EDIT: It's almost like...a link...would have more information.

Good reason to revive another 56 books with dead spiderpeople for the shops.

Thank you. I had v1 and v2 to start with but I bought the two oversized hardcovers after that. Those don't have some of the smaller stories. Wanted to create a cross-reference of what's missing so that I can come back to those later.
Now if I can only find the Palomar hardcover for a decent price.
Took about 6-7 days after they sent me the shipping email.

lmao what shops
Comicshops. Just imagine the possibilites.
Kain (not even that far fetched)
Scarlet Spider
Gwenclonepool
Etc
But then again, not even Civil War 2 turned out to be that bad as it seems.
No, but Raven leads directly into Teen Titans Rebirth.

literally the dumbest worst villain in comics history
I'm sure Reis and Fabok have books lined up for the second wave of Rebirth titles. Frank hasn't been a monthly artist in a long time, I wouldn't get your hopes up expecting to see him drawing JSA or something 12 times a year.
