Marvel struggles with counting. They get nervous if the issue count gets beyond 10 and resets. Pretty soon the series volume count will far exceed the number of issues that series will ever get.
gg Marvel
In other news every time I try to read today I pass out. In lazy old man reading mode. Not making much progress. Halp
we said new characters, Jess and the Nacho lady have been here for a while.
Unofrtunately it probably wouldn't do all that well.
We don't kjnow yet and I'm guessing if people like the book it might stick around assuming they aren't already planning on doing that.
no...please marvel
It could come back for all we know.

Jess, Jenn, whatever, who cares, nerd
i'm cool
I post on actual Off-Topic threads and everything none of your "community" ghetto-ass bullshit
WTF is ULTRA COMICS?
It comes out Wednesday.
Part of this whole MULTIVERSITY thing.
I got a preview of this issue from my LCS.
It's about as weird as you might expect.
But BRO--
--nobody actually believes this comic is haunted or cursed, right?

You're not cool if you have to tell people you're cool.
Also, FigureGAF had a mod visit the other day telling us to be less lewd. We're legit now! We have street cred.

Saw this at Forbidden Planet in London yesterday, it's not supposed to be out until the 31st.
Remember someone talking about it earlier in here (or the last thread). It's pretty great. Is it out in the US already?
It was in my store last week. Its likely in comic stores last wednesday and amazon ect on the 30th. Comic shops usually get a few weeks headstart.

Superman #39 was great. The moment with the gunman felt like something out of All Star Superman to me.
Also, I'm continuing to slowly truck through Sandman. I'm currently on Vol 6, having started several years ago. It's a great book, but it can be pretty heavy at times. The forward to Vol 6. states something to the effect that almost every line of Dream's could be interpreted in a poetic, second meaning way. To be honest it's not much of an exaggeration either.

You mean like... anybody other than Grant Morrison, right?
Nice! I hope once some of these characters "cool down" I'll be able to pick some of these variants up for cheaper. Hope being the key word here lol

I've never read a David Foster Wallace book in my life.
I started reading Infinite Jest on my Kindle a while back. I read it for a few hours and was still at 1 or 2% progress through the book. I got overwhelmed and gave up. One day though. Haha
However, I have read The Instructions, which is a 1000+ page book and is absolutely excellent. I'd highly recommend checking it out.

I can get through books if they're interesting. I've tried three times to read Atlas Shrugged and never got further than page 150. No point in sticking with it if you're not enjoying it, though.

Speaking of thousand page novels, ever read any Neal Stephenson?
I like 'em just fine, but the dude is crazy.
I know this because I've read his autobiography.

I believe in Morrison

Nah, man, you gotta goodbooks, like The Eye of Argon.
I don't read literature much anymore.
Fifteen seconds in and I'm in love.

You seem to have gotten more mileage out of it than I did. But Multiversity as a whole has been the best DC event in ages. I'm definitely in for the collected edition. I'll probably even triple-dip if they put out an Absolute Edition.

I've never not illustrated Infinite Jest in a professional capacity.
It's like the whole spectrum is covered .

I've just read the last 3 pages of comigaf while downing 4 triple bacon burgers.
I've no idea what the hell any of you are talking about.
Anyway.

I wanna do terrible, horrible things to whoever allowed this to go through. Fucksake, how could the writer make it any clearer that he wanted to be pulled from the job?
