Deadly Clads 21...wtf. Seriously?
Thanks.
To bad that all of this funny Superboy Prime stuff seems to happen in Crisises and I wont start yet another just to have no idea what the hell is going on.

Yup, and in recent interviews Remender
confirms it is exactly what it looks like. RIP Marcus.

No, it's from the end of Final Crisis: Legion of Three Worlds.

Yuuuup
Sounds like Saya is actually the star of the book now, too.

Okay, I'm actually not entirely opposed to
Saya being the lead. But now Marcus will never have herpes kids.

I would be okay with this.

LeBron loses his third straight Finals, which is pretty amazing when you think about it.
Source: I'm from the future.
Yup JR Smith is still in the playoffs.

Do not read them. They will make you hate comics.

I've only read the first issue too. Waiting for that deluxe edition.

Picked up a book called Half Past Danger from the library. (Because Jordie Bellaire was listed on colours and I love the genre). An Irish Indiana Jones type character fighting Nazis and Dinosaurs. First two issues have been light pulpy fun. Writing and Art by Stephen Mooney. Most of his work apart from this seems to be on licensed stuff.

Yeah stay away from those Deadly Class spoilers if you aren't caught up folks. They are yuge.

Can't believe so many people are behind on Deadly Class. Book has been consistently good and worth reading.
I am just glad to have less books to buy.
but does it read well in trades? i like remender's work but reading it straight through feels better than month to month / trade to trade

LeBron the turnover King.
Well shit, Green Arrow had a new artist going forward. Current dude is doing GOAT work.

It has two artists. Otto Schmidt (the guy you like) and Juan Ferreyra (the one you should be excited for)
This is Juan's Black Canary in #3
Absolutely yes

Those look good. Based on solicits, it looks like Schmidt might be done after #2. Ferreyra is on art for #3-5, and possibly beyond.
That's the best part of the character and this series for me. It's what distinguishes him from being a knock off Batman. Bleeding heart Ollie all day, every day.
I have no problem with Ollie being political...its just its not really implemented well by Percy

Seems good to me, but I guess my expectations are low for comic book political commentary as a whole. Green Arrow feels fresh to me in the sense that you don't get this type of stuff from the big two.
Good enough for me, don't need much to push me into a book with Boomerang and Shocker.
So yea was reading Neonomicon. Tentacle porn was not a lie, probably NSFW.

Yeah I feel the same way, but it's not as bad in GA #1. I'm still not as in love with the book as many here but I'm coming around.

Catching up on Rebirth and man, it was good see Batwoman, Steph and Cass in one book. Also good to see Tim in a costume that doesn't look horrible.
Next game in overwatch i'm going to throw myself off someone's foot so i can relate.
Actual Important Comics News: there's a kickstarter for a new remastered and uncensored edition of Toshio Maeda's Urotsukidoji. GET IN PEOPLE, THAT'S THE GOOD STUFF.
Really cool yet entirely forgettable first issue. I loved it, but it doesn't have any hook to keep going. The highlight of the issue to me was
clayface in the theater.
That's right up there with the JLU Star-Girl/Martian Manhunter hug for me.
I KNOW WHAT THIS IS!
Hmm. I get what you're saying. I don't like overly one-sided politics in comics. It WAS, as you said, a little ham-fisted in the rebirth issue, but it's not nearly as heavy in the proper issue #1. And I don't mind if they keep that aspect of him in there. Even if I don't subscribe to every liberal belief, I like that it separates him from the average superhero.

Finished all of Morrison Batman. Chris Burnham's art is absolutely disgusting. Ruined a lot of the allure of Batman Inc. He's riffing off Quietly but somehow worse, which I didn't think was possible. Morrison sure seems to dig that style.
Story was good but not great. Morrison really likes to take a perfectly straightforward concept and overcomplicated the shit out of it. I somehow love it and hate it at the same time.

Tied game. This is going down to the wire, isn't it?
