Fuck no at Miguel Sepulveda on Talon. Get that hack off it. Where is March?

Fuck no at Miguel Sepulveda on Talon. Get that hack off it. Where is March?

I think he's got the month off. He isn't doing the Batman back-up either.

 

[slightconfuse]

maybe he is drawing that new book you keep asking for

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

He was off for May too. Sepulvedas art is repulsive, DCs Land.

Oh hell, I hope he isn't the new permanent artist. Talon deserves much better.

Batman Family solicitations for June are up on Bleeding Cool. I thought Batman, Inc. #12 was supposed to be Morrison's finale? The solicitation for the issue doesn't make mention of this at all, unlike his final issue of Action Comics. Maybe he's not leaving the book with #12?

Batman Family June 2013 solicitations

Probably been extended at least one issue.

And I guess it really is The New 50 now, at least for one month. Unless DC is going to rush-solicit a couple #1s closer to June.

 

[jon bones]

So what is wrong with long runs? His Black Mirror and Court of Owls were long. This is suddenly a bad thing?

Nothing was wrong with Black Mirror, it was awesome. Court of Owls was dumb, though.

Lol, even the link to the sale notification form doesn't work.

It'll come back, and hopefully they will be ready.

It's also weird that it says Superman Unchained is 32 pages, despite having a backup.

What's the difference between Absolute and Omnibus?

Fuck no at Miguel Sepulveda on Talon. Get that hack off it. Where is March?

Who is he and what has he worked on before? I was a fan of Talon's art.

 

[creationtheory]

He did the Thanos Imperative. You can get the 1st issue for free at comixologeeeee oh wait...

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Stormwatch and Red Lanterns most recent. He is awful.

 

[Anticitizen One]

It was really crazy that Snyder hyped up this Joker story for months and then Morrison smokes him on actual impact only like two weeks later.

So weird.

Same thing happened with Batman R.I.P./Final Crisis and Civil War/Death of Captain America

 

[Owzers]

What's the difference between Absolute and Omnibus?

Absolutes are taller and i really like the format, but also really expensive while collecting a small amount of issues.

Omnibus collections are oversized, same dimensions as Marvel's, and collect a larger amount of issues for the price

It's also weird that it says Superman Unchained is 32 pages, despite having a backup.

I'd like to find out what's up....hopefully one of these newsites will raise the question. My guess is either:

Superman Unchained 4.99 w/back-up, 5.99 combo pack
Superman Batman 3.99 without back-up, 4.99 combo pack.

or both are misprints and everything is lowered a dollar across the board.

 

[Supermanisdead]

Haha Comixology, your link to fill out that notification email doesn't even work. What a clusterfuck.

- Thor: GoT #6

You're getting Fearless Defenders but not Thor? I might have to give away all of the codes of the previous issues to amend this.

 

[Supermanisdead]

I just can't seem to care about Thor, but I get that it's good. I figure Fearless Defenders is going to be cancelled before 12 issues, so I'm here for the ride with Dani Moonstar - good or bad! It can't be a worse time for her than when she was a schoolmom/counselor/wimp.

Can't be the last, X-Termination hasn't started yet and it's one of the crossover titles.

 

[jon bones]

fantastic week, can't wait:

locke & key
the manhattan projects
nowhere men
thor: god of thunder

Pretty excited for this week:

I'll probably pick up B&R as well.

 

[V_Ben]

With every issue of Superior Spider-Man, the book gets more and more fun. Wonderfully entertaining.

This is the one and only time Dark Horse's app looks good. I'll read some Terminator comics.

 

[Anticitizen One]

Hope Ultron doesn't suck again and Wolverine is worth picking up

 

[Loxley]

Are there any opinions around here on the Kindle Fire for reading comics? I have no place that sells comics near me and have decided to try and embrace one of the available e-readers.

 

[B-Dubs]

Lil Gotham is just as good as ever. I'm so happy to see you Damian!

do you already own the 7'' one? I'd go 8.9'' just for a larger size, i used comixology a little on the kindle fire hd 7'' i had and returned, it was okay but small. If you want to use panel-panel guided view then it's not a problem.

 

[Freezasaurus]

With every issue of Superior Spider-Man, the book gets more and more fun. Wonderfully entertaining.

Yeah, I read through the first five issues this past week and found it to be an entertaining book. I was a little surprissed.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

I'm enjoying Slott's run on Superior Spider-Man more this year than the vast majority of issues he's done last year(although his first year remains the best, so far). Five issues of this weird ass status quo, and I've rather liked every one.

Well, the Ramos issues are coming up, let me hold my tongue

 

[bryanee]

In regards to Damian dying in Batman Inc, do you reckon Bruce might go off the deep end and start being a little brutal with the bad guys? Having Todd die is one thing but you gotta think that having your son die might fuck you up a bit.

 

[Mac the KNife]

Swag.

 

[akira28]

In regards to Damian dying in Batman Inc, do you reckon Bruce might go off the deep end and start being a little brutal with the bad guys? Having Todd die is one thing but you gotta think that having your son die might fuck you up a bit.

well he did it the last time a Robin died, they could do it again, since they figure everyone forgot angry loner Bat. But they might decide that it's a lot contrived and maybe try something else.

 

[Tawney Bomb]

Nowhere Men #4
Manhattan Projects #10

Light week for me.

 

[Chuck]

Not to sound like a noob, which i totally am, but don't all these Batman stories take place at different points in time? The idea being that Damien's death didn't happen in the Batman main series yet, as well as detective or whatever else.

Or am I thinking too logically? I honestly don't get it.
