Yea it's idiotic. Priest says "where do we go from here?" Dude your a writer, you should know the importance of character development. You shouldn't just revert characters back to how they acted when they were first introduced by Grant Morrison how many years ago!

Both the movies and the comic keep repeating the same kinda of character development that Tomasi and Morrison already did years ago, it's weird we are repeating the same thing.

Lovely comment Donnie.
Another thought about The Spire. So interesting to me how
Another thought about The Spire. So interesting to me how
Julietta jumps in front of a bullet for Sha. After all those years. Thinking she thought nothing of Sha except that deep down she's a bastard. Julietta betrays herself with that final act. Another thing: when the queen says that Sha took off after impregnating her. Am I forgetting or is it not made clear why Sha did that? Is it just assumed she was freaked out and bailed?

Only if you also watch the old Cap and Hulk movies.

I think that's left quite up in the air but I think that might be on purpose.
Obviously in the story we know Sha arrived as a play thing of the queen; how long had she been in that role, how much abuse had she been exposed to, in addition to the plain dissonance she was experiencing within herself in regards to sex, gender and just plain happiness. I think she just snapped and ran. Maybe the baby was the straw that broken the camel's back, maybe it was a feeling of unworthiness to be able to raise a child?
I think it's one of those stories you kind of desperately want there to be a sequel to, just to know everything was okay, but you kind of know deep down it's just right as it is.
Did the characters look back and take meaning from the events and learn? Did Sha begin the cycle again? It's hard to know.
Also, I really like that observation about Pug, that's a very cool take.
The released a complete edition a year or two ago. Be happy with that.
Never. Oversized or nothing. *throws the two trade paperbacks into the fire*
Diana gone crazy, run!!

Need some opinions. I did some WW art. The first version has some pretty basic coloring and lets the lifework do its thing and the second version is much more rendered. Out of the two, which one catches your eyes more?

Just saw WW and it was excellent. Some good action moments but really carries it is the characters and a good interpretation of Diana. Which isn't easy

In preparation to go see Wonder Woman and because of the Top 10 Justice League Episodes? thread, I'm going to watch the WW focused episodes of JL and JLU. This includes *sigh* "Hawk and Dove". And "Fury", but mostly "Hawk and Dove" is the one that upsets me.

Be happy they finished it. I was really digging Warren Ellis' Newuniversal but that one never got completed.

I like the first one better, but the second one is flashier, which makes it more eye catching.

I like the first more, Ed. I think flat coloring suits your style better.
I should get through JL and JLU again fully, but I liked much of the interaction between Hawkgirl and Wonder Woman later on heh. Don't think I recall the Hawk and Dove episode much.

Ill never understand why Marvel chooses to do HCs for some books and not others that seriously deserve them. Books like Uncanny X-Force, Wolverine and the X-Men, Secret Warriors, Agents of HATE, and Iron Fist all got Complete Collections but no Hardcovers but books like Nova and Daredevil did. The larger HCs are by far my preferred format. Larger than the usual TPB but smaller than an Omni. Perfect for reading and collecting. Wish we got more of these. Almost done getting all of Slott's Spider-man HCs!
Speaking of Daredevil, Any chance they will do a Vol. 2 Omnibus for Mark Waid's Daredevil run? Debating getting the last few Daredevil HCs instead of waiting to see what Marvel decides to do. Just hate having 1 omni and 3 HCs instead of 2 Omnis or all 5 HCs.
Also, Doctor Strange and Thor Vol. 2 HCs are available to Pre-Order this month on DCBService.com!

All of those got omnibuses right? Maybe because of that?
Nextwave and Soule She-Hulk I don't understand though. They got neither.

Hmmm. It's hard to say, because while I like the first one better overall, it's almost too flat for me. The second one is a little over rendered, at least for my tastes, but it is more eye-catching.
Also, nice pose. Looks good.

The Amazon sale is madness. I'm looking at the entire Claremont Uncanny X-Men run and reeeaaally tempted to just buy it all.
It will also be there when your eyes close no matter how hard you try to forget.
Team top one.
It's good, you should buy it.

That's unfortunate. Dynamite has always felt like the definition of mediocre comics.

They've had some series I've enjoyed over the years, but a lot of that was probably down to licenses. I love the old pulps and they have all of those licenses. Their first Lone Ranger series is severely underrated.
I really enjoy their Pathfinder comics as well, especially since IDW's D&D stuff is all Faerun these days and I have a strong dislike for that setting.

They published David Walkers Shaft comic. We should all be thankful for that.
Guess we found who has been buying them and putting them in the EU topsellers

What if I told you I bought them all long before the sale? I got into the series after the D&D Fell's Five IDW book ended, which left a hole in my heart ever since.
I'm pretty sure I have all the Jim Zub ones like four times over because Dynamite puts them into every one of their Humble Bundles.
