Dejah is a different spin on the story, I'll give them that, but some of the dialogue is just lol.

You are going on my shit list for this. You know what you did
Me too. It honestly took me a while to even get used to reading stuff from the 80s/90s that wasn't essential Batman reading. I'll definitely give the omnibus a read but I'm mostly getting it for historical significance and collecting purposes.

Messi, did you see this new Harley from Diamond Select?
I thought it was fine for what it was.

Not for $3.99 it isn't.
Yeah, same. I was looking through some of the art (since it contains the three volumes of Batman Illustrated by Neal Adams) and it's really great and holds up well. I'm just hoping I'll enjoy it for more than just the art, but we'll see.
So wait a month and get it half price. No one is forcing you to buy day one.
Wait Hope exists in the comics?
Also, more catching up:
SHIELD #7 - Awful issue, easily the worst so far and by far the most tie-in-y with the show. Shit story with Quake getting sick because of her inhuman gene (ugh) and them going to Htde for help on a cure. What the fuck was Waid doing in the book, it could have been written by a monkey. Why am I reading this? Oh and the art was horrible to top it off.
SHIELD #8 - Well at least the art is much better in this one (its quite good in fact), and so is the story in fact. Mockingbird focused issue and she and May (the one from the show, guess shes canon now) investigate kids being turned into monsters. Decent issue, but it still feels like a completely unnecessary tie-in.
I ask again, why am I reading this...I need to learn how to drop shit. In fact, ill do that right now.

It's framed on his wall.
It absolutely is and I look at it every day.
One day I will steal it and sell it back to you panel by panel.

I read the first 7 issues of Giant Days. This book is lovely and delightful and full of life. Get it. There is not one evil thing about it.

Giant Days is top 5 comic of 2015
Secret Wars catch up!
Old Man Logan #2 - yo that Sorrentino art tho. Anyway, this seems like its going to be one of the least self contained tie ins in Secret Wars since it bleeds into other "universes" of battleworld, in this case the Age of Apocalypse one. Putting aside the fact that Sabretooth is a bad guy in this but he was a x-men in the OG series (I guess I need to read more of the actual AoA tie in), I continue to enjoy this, especially since we know Logan ends up in the 616 after secret wars.
Infinity Gauntlet #2 - This continues to be a weird book and not what I expected. Thanos finally shows up but its in the future (only this pocket of battleworld's future I guess...best not think too much about it), where he keeps fighting and failing against some mystery Nova. Meanwhile the Nova family is reunited and they all get Nova powers. Even the dog. Nova dog. This is a weird book. Im kinda into. Art continues to be great also.
Nova Dog tho

Truth.
Thats weird!
It was a nice change of pace from all the other tie-ins in where familiar characters have different personalities and play different roles.
I hope you enjoy this tie-in.

Real talk. Who was the

I know, but it could have been a swerve. A SWERVE.

You're a swerve.
A-Force was my favorite. But Siege was great.
A-Force was cool. Some of the faces were weird though.

Oh shit, they're uniting the Kirkman-verse!?
Absolutely 👍
The art was my favorite part

Right.
Uber.
Y'know how The Boys ended up being mostly shite because ennis just couldn't help himself?
Uber is the other way around. Surprisingly similar comic, in a way. Just... better. In nearly every single regard.
kudos to gillen. Eagerly awaiting Uber Invasion this year.

Messi buying 99 books a month and still looking for more. The industry would surely collapse without him.

I'm bad about this too. I buy a lot of trades and don't read them, and I keep asking for more.
I'm trying to fix that more. I marathoned through all of Rachel Rising and tomorrow it's Copra day.
