Lol yup. They so are. The only difference is that
Lydia is a freak and Carl will just kill you if you get in his way of locking that shit down.
I figured that their intentions are
to kill off everyone except the new group, that girl Magus or whatever the hell her name is, and there will be another time jump where Carl & Lydia are these villains that are worse than the Governor could ever hope of being.
You know how Kirkman is though...it could be a bait and switch. Or they could just eat a ham like that one issue.
Has Kirkman ever hinted at an end for The Walking Dead comic? I wonder if all that TV money / pressure from AMC would keep him from doing
. (Walking Dead Vol 22 spoiler)
I feel like he'll just keep milking the series indefinitely though, which at this point I don't mind, seeing that he's still doing great things with it.

I think he said that its only something like 25% done, and that he does have an ending. You're basically going to be reading it till the dude dies.
Someone call Brandon Sanderson and get him prepped so he can finish the last 3 arcs when Kirkman dies before he finishes the series.
edit - Even if he's only half way through and never hands the series off to another writer (which he'd never do, I'm sure), would that make the series the longest running comic from a single author? Does anyone know if this record exists and who/what holds it?
Yup. I bet some of it will be expedited though. I give it another 5-10 years Max. Saga is never going to end either.

Saga will end at issue 40.
Problem is that Saga's release schedule will make Hawkguy blush.
I think Saga will eventually end.

Screw Secret Wars. When is Marvel going to start hyping up All New Marvel in September?
Is that a guess or was it talked about?

I got it from the trustworthy folks at MyAss dot com.
I would guess around the same as Y.

Well, hams are pretty delicious.
I think people might actually get bored before then. Issue #250 is a nice place to shoot for.
Ha ha, I always make that joke in regards to George R.R. Martin. Sanderson is nuts. Last year he posted what was basically a roadmap of what he wants to do with his writing career, and he's planning all these series and sequels to books he's already written. I'm not sure if he does anything but write.
Everything will eventually end.
Dude I love that site.

Dave Sims' 300 issues of Cerebus is the king of the hill. If Walking Dead comes out monthly Kirkman could take the belt in 16 years or so.

ComicGAF, I need you.
So, I'm part of a group that's doing a presentation on indie comics. These were the books that we came up with:
Sex
Sex Criminals
Saga
Rat Queens
Spawn
Translucid
Knucklehead
Everyone's got three books each, and (at this point) the only one left is Sex Criminals - which I'm doing. I need two extra books. Help!
(Also, I'd already done a mini-presentation on indie books and did Wicked + The Divine, and Deadly Class.)

Those are both super awesome.
Wait, what!? That sucks, man. Sorry to hear that.
In other news, WOO YOU'RE BACK. Bout time.
And also, is this your first time reading Scalped?
First time ever! It blows my mind. At first I wasn't sure about the premise, but once you find out
he's undercover
In regards to my radio job...I have no idea. I'm either fired or I got a promotion.

God Hates Astronauts would be an amazing choice.
Manhattan Projects and God Hates Astronauts
Yeah but even then Cerebus would be the much more impressive work

Six Gun Gorilla and I Kill Giants
Absolutely this.

Putting SGG over I Kill Giants is some serious silly-talk.
But man, God Hates Astronauts would make for an amazing presentation.

Wait why not do a Matt Fraction three way and add Casanova and Satellite Sam.

Shit, you guys came through in a big way.
I'm gonna ask if I can do American Vampire. If I get the yes I'll do that, Sex Criminals, and God Hates Astronauts (which I think is gonna kill). If not, I'm picking Six Gun Gorilla. Or Satellite Sam.

I haven't read I Kill Giants. But SGG is incredible.

I Kill Giants is better. It will drown you in a wave of feels.

Does anyone remember the name of the Marvel comic that came out a few years ago that had all those monster versions of characters like a 6 arm venom Spider-Man and I think Frankencastle? Was it Dark Avengers or maybe Thunderbolts? It came out around the time they were doing that whole "Heroic Age" branding in 2010

When Age of Ultron comes out and makes a billion dollars opening weekend so they can proudly announce the story continues in the pages of All-New Marvel in September with All-New Avengers written by Joss Whedon and the Gamora book by the writer of the GOTG movie.
I need this in my life.
Geof Darrow's Shaolin Cowboy, in which you see one of the great comics artists draw the same thing every issue for four issues in obsessive detail, testing the limits of your patience and awe.

What themes or what point are you going for the indies? Time, era, themes?
I'd go with strangers in paradise. One of the strongest 90 indies ever. Another legacy indie is Cerebus
Or are you going for fav current indies?

Thanks. Looks interesting.
You could spend $10 on worse things. I know I have.

You are a godsend assuming its good quality.
Finally got the last IST order in the mail today so I figured I'd put all my unread books in a single pile. Yeah, I think I need to get to reading these before I buy any more.
God damn, that is some order. Some incredible books in there. Baller purchase.

Haha, I did the same thing. If that stack shifts and falls on you there is a real possibility that you could be trapped for days. Keep a phone close by. Safety first, kids.

What are those 3 Dark Horse books above Sandman? Looks like some kind of Serenity collections?
