Hey guys, is the Cloonan Punisher book any good? It still hasn't been cancelled so I'm assuming the sales are there?

So Killer Croc is a descendant of shapeshifting lizard-people from ancient Babylon?

What about it didn't you like?
I'm in the mood for some Punisher so I'm looking for some stuff I haven't read. I'm also looking at the most recent Rucka run.

Found the CMX code. It was in my spam folder.

How the mighty have fallen.
All that stuff goes in a "Promotions" folder for me.
I thought it was really boring and stilted. Trying very hard on the violence front too.

Yuuuuuuuup
Interesting arc, but that part was weird. I feel like this whole saga could've used more build, but I'm only on vol. 2

Finally With Preacher season 2 premiere the show starts to feel more like the comic. It's still it's own thing but it's finally sticking to the absurdity and over the top crassness. If it can find the hidden heart it'll have the 3 core tennants of the book (IMO)
Better than any reasonable expectations. I was gonna skip them, but what the hell they're fucking fantastic
Gonna read all of Action comics and Detective Comics since Rebirth. :V
Heh, maybe I will include the Wonder Woman/Tasmanian Devil in my pile to use the get $20 off of $30 or more code.
New sales doesn't interests me, so think I am set of what I want to get (mostly just wrapping up the Steph Batgirl series).

I got one of those coupons too but I'm not sure what to get. I've picked up most things I was waiting on a sale for already. Maybe I'll get the remaining issues of Thor I need instead of jumping into something else.
Man, those are great.
That Batman one is sooooooooo good. :O

That Batman is the one that we saw as a statue in The Forge.

I've only read Martian Manhunter/Marvin the Martian and Wonder Woman/Taz and I've thought both were pretty bad. Martian Manhunter one though is 100% worth it for the backup though which is 20x better than the main issue.

I'm reading the Zdarsky Spiderman comic that came out last week. How far back does the whole wrestling part of Spidey's origin go? I only knew about it from the first Raimi Movie.
Edit: Gorlan Parlov drew the backup! Awesome.

The Seeley issues were alright but that was when they already knew they would relaunch it as part of Rebirth. Get the classic volumes by Ostrander though, they're great.
Yep just ignore and get Ostrander like tim1138 said
The movie was basically a loose adaption of one of the arcs from ostrander run with HQ except the comic was way better

God damn. Finally got around to starting The Amazing Screw-on Head & others collection, and the title story is excellent. What makes it stand apart from his other work is how self aware it is. It's pulpy as hell but the characters know it, the whole script feels like it was written with tongue firmly in cheek and ends up really wacky and loveable. The art is really top notch too, matches the tone perfectly while keeping that moody look Mig achieves with Stewart so well. This feels like the closest thing I've read to the pancake short in the HB books, and I'd be happy to see more adventures of Mr Head, Groin and Dog some day.

This design is SICK
Event spoilers below!
Crisis on Infinite Earths - the Anti-Monitor destroys the multiverse, leaving only one Earth and one version of all the characters. This was done to clean up and unify continuity. Barry Allen Flash and Supergirl die during the Crisis.
Infinite Crisis - this brings back the Multiverse. Superboy Prime, Superman and Lois of Earth 2, and Alexander Luthor of Earth 3 survived the original Crisis and lived alone in a pocket dimension. Superboy Prime manipulates them to help him restore the Multiverse by promising to bring their worlds back. Superboy Prime is evil, gets thrown in the Speed Force, and ultimately is held in a red sun prison by the GOV.
Final Crisis - the Fourth World falls and the Fifth World rises. Darkseid and his cohorts posses human hosts, Darkseid finally gets control over the Anti-Life Equation and takes over the world, corrupting many of Sarah's heroes in the process. Barry Allen comes back form beyond the grave and he and Wally trick the Black Racer (the New Gods embodiment of Death) into attacking Darkseid right as Batman shoots him with a radium bullet. Batman gets blasted by the Omega Sanction and gets sent back in time. Meanwhile the Supermen of the Multiverse team up and take down an evil Monitor and then Superman builds a wishing machine and wishes for a happy ending.
Convergence - dunno, don't care.
Darkseid War - The Anti-Monitor and Darkseid throw down, Darkseid dies, various League members become New Gods. After teaming up with the Crime Syndicate, the League is betrayed by them. Jessica Cruz appears to die but doesn't and becomes a Green Lantern. Darkseid is reborn and is a baby, Lex Luthor is the new Lord of Apokolips. Owlman and Grid steal Metron's chair to gain omniscience before being killed by Doc Manhattan thus ushering in Rebirth.

Thought it was just ok. I wrote it felt like part of a TV pilot script re-purposed to be a comic. Writer seemed to take offense to that.

Hey now. Convergence was bad, yes, BUT:
Brainiac brings a bunch of different parts of worlds and timelines together to make them fight it out except he...fuck i don't care either. Basically, Infinite Earths return as opposed to the 52 of before. Parallax Hal Jordan and Pre-Flashpoint Superman, Lois Lane, and their son Jon make it into the post-Flashpoint (New 52) timeline. This is the Super family that's currently running around. I have no idea what happened to Parallax.

I got the Prez collection (not the new series, the old one), and Checkmate Vol 1 from Rucka. I figured I might as well use the comic for (A) DC stuff, which seems to go on sale way less often than other publishers, (B) stuff I wanted, but (1) wasn't likely to end up in a sale soon anyway since it's old, obscure and there's not going to be any media crossovers to trigger a sale a-la Wonder Woman, and (2) stuff I would never actually pay full price for digital for.
A bunch of other things I would have used the coupon on have a big enough price descrepancy between Amazon and CMX (but redeem on CMX anyway) that it took them out of coupon contention. Like that New Frontier deluxe collection: $30-something on CMX, $19 on Amazon even though it redeems on CMX. Cosmic Oddysey? $25 on CMX, $17 on Amazon. Etc Etc Etc. Ditto for a ton of more recent Marvel TPBs: Amazon's normal price is CMX's sale price.
