should try doing another coat of red at the part of Zoom's dust trail.
25 issues into Civil War (as usual, counting tie ins), I cant even say its bad, its just...bland. Its boring, nothing really happens. Spidey's "coming out" was ok I guess, maybe it would have been impactful back then if I didnt know it was happening. Like I said last night my favorite part so far is the Civil War: Frontline stories with Speedball in prison
Have you ever read Ellis' Thunderbolts? That comes out of Civil War and involves Speedball.
Read my first chunk of the monstrously huge Geoff Johns Green Lantern Omnibus. Pretty much just up through where the Parallax/Specter stuff finishes up. It was okay so far, especially seeing as I kind of recall some hate for that retcon. I haven't read the stuff, but from what I read something like that pretty much needed to happen if Johns was going to bring back Hal as main character material, so I'm fine with it. Bit silly of course, but it was handled well enough for what it was (though Batman was written as a bit more of a dick than necessary, imo).
I share the same opinion. It wasn't bad but just wasn't interesting enough to keep me involved. If you want to read a bad event, there's Fear Itself. Not that I would recommend you to read it but if you're curious.
Elli's Thunderbolts is one of the many (many) books I started, loved, and didnt continue (too many books man). Ill get to it
Thanks. The hate this story gets is pretty stupid.
I liked Frontline a lot. Little draggy 2/3 of the way through but I thought the payoff was great.
The concept of the book is incredible. I would really love to see more series in the vain of this book.
The world of the superheros theough the eyes of ordinary people.

Batman #5 1941 was another pretty cool Batman vs The Joker one-shot. He was just as creepy and evil in 1941 as he is now. It's Batman that really hasn't found his personality yet. Dick Grayson is pretty spot on. Really enjoying reading these old stories.
Where can I get that figure? And does it come with pizza dog?

The first one is from Avengers and the Infinity Gauntlet, from the Atomic Robo guy. It's aimed at kids but I enjoyed it.
Good choice.
When are they making Kate? (I already know the answer to this)
Sounds like someone should read Kurt Busiek's Astro City.

Why is Clark Kent fighting hydra on that ridiculous suit?

Because he's an X-Man.
I like reading those vintage comics as well.
I'm thinking after the Detective Comic issues they had a really good idea where they wanted to go with the character so the Batman title started strong.

Yeah it's pretty neat to see how a character has evolved and where other writers may have looked for inspiration.
I just read Detective Comics #sixty-something from 1942 which is another Joker one-shot. This one really showed the flamboyant, campy side of the characters. Definitely an inspiration for the 66 show.
You guys know the thread for Hickman's Avengers? Can someone link me to a reading order like that, but All-New X-men/Uncanny/etc? Pretty sure I need to start reading Uncanny now as the team just showed up in ANX again and they're wearing different (more badass) costumes.
Thanks!
Thanks!

There's a current 616 version of Nomad?
He hasn't been around for too long , but yes. H was created during Steve's last run in CA.

Hydra seems like it might be a cool book. Also, this:
Dude, I love old comics so much, especially Silver Age stuff. It's so fun to go back and read the comics before they were written for the trade and often were just weird and campy. Silver Age Batman is especially great stuff.

Yeah, he's Cap Falcon's partner. He's Rogers'
adopted son
We have 47 books so far IIRC and the latest Axel-in-Charge basically said there's still some more stuff to go. That image was just for stuff shipping in July.

That actually sounds really cool.
I'm fond of the old horror titles. Dark Horse has been reprinting Creepy and Eerie. They're great. The old EC horror titles are classic too. There are Steve Ditko Archives collections that are pure gold. The comics "before the code" are so bizarre and hilarious.
