Knocked out all 5 issues of American Alien... goddamn one of the better Superman stories I've read. Really gets you back into the character. Good writing and I love the different art styles per issue.

Sounds delicious!
Yeeessss
Feels so good, too. This is like BOOM studios quality trade paperback.
That trade is $20?
I got it for $12, but yeah. I mean, it's kind of expensive but it's 176 pages (which would probably have been $16.99 cover from DC and more from the other guys), so I was alright with that.
Includes Archie 1-6, Jughead #1 (which I wasn't expecting), and some bonus content.

Which means you have to watch P&R again in order to see for sure, right?
The Furies, Barda, Miracle, and Kalibak all showed up and played big roles in Earth 2 as well. Well, Kalibak and the Furies just wrecked shit, but the rest played huge roles.

I guess I'll give Power Man another shot.
This is the worst part about returning to CGAF. I was savin monayyyyy!!

Oh my goodness, I had to have watched P&R at least 25 times (except seasons 6 and 7, which were probably 5-10 times). But I think you're right, because I've watched 30 Rock through about four times since I last watched P&R.

I liked 30 Rock a lot but I wouldn't put it on the same level as P&R.
Think of it as Psych, Buff Gus and Kung Fu Shawn

P&R has more soul but nothing tops 30 Rock's JPS ratio.

Double page spreads are a problem in the glued trades/omnibuses too. (And horrible in most physical Manga).

Squirrel Girl is great
Only one issue out for each but Black Widow and Mockingbird had strong first issues. BW is by Waid/Samnee so it's gonna be rad.

I was really not able to get into Squirrel Girl pre Secret Wars. I don't know what it was because I usually like the more comedic books and I love the more recent run of Howard the Duck, but Squirrel Girl just wasn't able to grab me.
Speaking of comedic books: just read Grayson #16 and damn it was amazing. Love this damn book.
I hope team Grayson lands on their feet post rebirth. Would hate to see them become a dour grimdark machine.
One of the many things I dislike about reading comics digitally. I've pretty much completely abandoned my tablet for reading comics.

Eh, it's a minor nuisance to have to tilt the tablet sideways to get the whole spread at a decent size, but it's tolerable compared to having to store physical comics somewhere when you're done reading.

Yup. I don't mind the tradeoff (until I get a PRO
). I just Guided View those panels and then look at the whole thing.Nice bonus is when you get stuff like that spread in Tokyo Ghost where they're jumping across the forest, you get a new wallpaper at the push of a button

Fuck, now I need to read Power Man & Iron Fist.

It's pretty awesome. A bit expensive if you're just planning on reading comics with it, but good golly, is it great to see the art that big.
With Power Man and Iron Fist, is there a continuity reason that Luke seems so grumpy with Danny?
Archie is such a great a comic. Gotta catch up on bothYeeessss

Iron Fist always dragged him into capers and crap he didn't want to do. Luke's 100% a family man now, and he doesn't want to kickstart any Heroes for Hire stuff. Iron Fist is bored and looking for adventure, and he's convinced Luke wants to crack skulls.

If I weren't already sold this would have sold me.
I do 90% of my browsing and reading of comics on my ipad. I think I could get great use out of it. Is it really huge?

Makes sense. Most of my exposure to them as a duo is Immortal Iron Fist and some New Avengers stuff, they just seemed less at loggerheads than they do in this.
It feels enormous at first, and then you get used to it. I still have my iPad 3 around though, so I'm reminded how much bigger it is.
It's basically the same size as my 13 in MacBook's screen, but with more screen and less border. Slightly thicker too.
From Comics Alliance 'Rebirth' Roundtable:
"On the subject of Superman, does it seem weird to anyone else that the Rebirth DCU has four different Supermen? Five if you count Cyborg Superman, whos in Supergirl"
http://comicsalliance.com/dc-rebirth-roundtable-discussion-analysis/?trackback=tsmclip
Can somebody tell me who are these five Superman they are talking about ?
I get Superman and Cyborg Superman, the article seems to imply there is now a Luthor Superman, but other than that I'm stumped.

Superman, Luthor Superman, New Superman (Chinese Superman), New 52 Superman, Cyborg Superman are my tally.
Oh were they? I bailed on E2 pretty quickly after Robinson walked and Taylor took over.

That I will never see that tire fire until it's on HBO and even then probably fucking not.
It just seems like the most cynical product of entertainment ever released into the wild.
Uh, Chinese Superman ? Where from ?
And you differentiate Superman and New 52 Superman. Is it to say I didn't notice and they reintroduced pre-52 Superman (yay), pre-crisis Superman (yay) or are you talking about the Superman from Convergence, who is... from what era exactly ?
Man, parallel dimensions aren't complicated, Crisis always seemed overkill to me, but DC have the super power to make them confusing as hell...
Edit - Ok, Chinese Superman is from the New Superman book just announced.

Isn't there Superman and Lois & Clark Superman?
Isn't he the one from Convergence ?
