For?

Winter Soldier and Iron Man are my favorite marvel movies, so Civil War being the third Cap movie gives me greater confidence i'll enjoy it.

 

[ElNarez]

oh shit oh fuck oh shit Los Bros are making a Sex Crimz variant

 

[BKatastrophe]

Why are the Johns JSA onmibus' so bloody expensive? Nearly 100 quid each? Yikes

Because they have to go deep into the catacombs under the library, where the keep it right next to the goddamn Necronomicon. Because that isn't a book, it's a tome.

This is my dream. They'd be such a perfect and incredible contrast to the Avengers.

I'm rereading all the Claremont stuff and it's amazing how Singer can bring over storylines from those books but completely miss the depth and wonder that makes them great. MCU just breathes that shit.

Couldn't agree more.

I want FOX to keep making X-Men films just so I can never feel bad about the fact there's never going to be a Tom King X-Force run

Well now I feel bad

But Sanji is worth 1000 men; Luffy himself said so.

Sanji's too busy being garbage to be worth that, I don't give a damn what Luffy said.

Aquaman 50 was damn good. Dan gets the characters.

 

[Freezasaurus]

I liked it. I haven't read Aquaman in ages, but I just impulse-bought it. Good issue, Mera was great.

 

[Interfectum]

I can get an iPad Pro for £529.99 with that ebay 20% code.

So tempted.

Do it. Comics on this thing are fucking great.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

The foot gang of the turtles are a reference to the hand of Daredevil, right? Since the juce that gave Matt his powers is supposed to be the same as the one that gave the turtles theirs?

 

[KoruptData]

I feel Abnett captured the tone of Johns and Parkers Aquaman perfectly. That tone being, the Arthur and Mera show. They are at their best as a couple working together. Brett Booths art was oddly charming.

Yeah. Master Splinter is a reference to Daredevil's mentor Stick as well.

 

[Owzers]

it's like one day you realize all your pens don't work anymore. Since when do pens go dry if you store them for five years? Ridiculous.

Seriously? Had no idea. That's pretty cool.

 

[frye]

Seriously? Had no idea. That's pretty cool.

early Turtles is straight up Miller/Janson Daredevil parody

 

[Brian Fellows]

Seriously? Had no idea. That's pretty cool.

Yeah I had never noticed either.

Is it easy to transfer files across? Because on my android tablet I can transfer them via wifi

For Comixology? It would be the same account, just redownload what you want.

For Comixology, the app will transfer.

For PDFs or whatnot on your PC you can download an app called "Documents" and drag them over from windows, saving the folder structure.

Documents, photos, movies etc

Sounds simple enough, might have to bite.

 

[Tragicomedy]

There are a ton of connections between Daredevil and the Ninja Turtles. The best is the "ooze" stuff. Also, Shredder had previously killed Splinter's master and lover.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' origin story paid homage to the first issue of Daredevil from 1963, in which young Matt Murdock is blinded by a radioactive isotope while pushing an old blind man from the path of an oncoming truck. Eastman and Laird extrapolated that after the canister containing that isotope struck Murdock, it collided with a bystander who was carrying a fishbowl containing his pets — four baby turtles. The turtles and the canister, which bore the initials T.C.R.I., fell down a grate into the sewer below, where they were discovered by an inquisitive rat, Splinter. Splinter had been the pet of the exiled ninja warrior Hamato Yoshi, who was slain along with his lover, Tang Shen, by the treacherous Oroku Saki, who blamed Yoshi for the death of his brother, Oroku Nagi.

"Splinter's name was a tip of the hat to the Daredevil supporting character Stick," recalls Laird, discussing the ninja master created by Miller who provided young Matt Murdock with the skills he would require to fight crime as Daredevil. "I think we chose a rat because as we began working out the story for the first issue of TMNT, we knew a lot of it would be set in the storm drains and sewers and back alleys of the city, and we figured that a common denizen of those places was the humble rat." Since The Hand menaced Daredevil during Miller's tenure, it was only natural that the Turtles would find themselves in conflict with The Foot, a clan of ninjas whose leader, the Shredder, was none other than Oroku Saki. The Shredder took his design inspiration from a metal cheese grater that struck Eastman as a potential weapon in the hands of the wrong person.

Mera got jokes.

I'm surprised you didn't make an avatar out of the Harley Quinn Rebirth cover. It's perfect for an avatar.

Messi's avatars are like the weather here in Colorado. If you don't like it, just wait five minutes and it will change.

Bound to be one of the best reads of 2016. I'm legit hyped as hell.

So you're saying your average is down to 3.7 per month? How the mighty have fallen!

 

[Freezasaurus]

Thanks

Sorry, I always thought your goal with that avatar was suffering.

Also look on rakuten.co.uk. They have codes right now that should give you another 15 % off (MARCH15 and MARCH2016).

The Starman and Chase tie ins were some of my favorite, but you're right, it's all great world building. Just another thing to add to my reread list...

Just got to the Starman issue. I loved it too. (And I also realised I had already read it as part of the Starman Omnibuses last year...)

 

[Messi]

Eh

 

[tim1138]

I dunno what I'm more hyped about for April, Black Panther or 4 Kids Walk into a Bank.

The one I've heard of.

 

[tim1138]

4 Kids Walk into a Bank
it is then! Odd you've never heard of Black Panther, but I guess Ta-Nehisi Coates is an unknown commodity in the comics world.

 

[Messi]

The one I've heard of.

Says more about you than it does about the quality of the book tbh

We interrupt the one word posts to bring this comics-related preview!

Love the cover art, but the inner stuff doesn't look nearly as appealing to me.

Team Silk, I suppose.

 

[flaxknuckles]

New Aquaman was so good. I hope he and Mera take over a country.

 

[Mitch]

Black Panther is at the top of my list for pulls next month. I've never read anything Black Panther, so I'm excited to jump in.

 

[Freezasaurus]

New Aquaman was so good. I hope he and Mera take over a country.

Yeah, I really liked it. Grabbed it on a whim, as I haven't read the series in a while. It was really the mention of Aquawoman in the synopsis that roped me in.
