Scott Kolims is an amazing fit for Larfleeze, can't wait for the series to start.

More personality in that Supergirl preview than the entirety of Mike Johnson's run. S glad Asrar is still on board.

Send this superior shithouse and his ruby red slip-slips packing, Kaine.
Something is missing on these covers.
Then again they could be incomplete. :/
Hype levels...I can't...contain them!
Probably the best panels that have ever been written for New52 Supergirl. They really need to get rid of those kneehole boots.

2099 looking amazing 
I hope Slott is setting up Stegman with an entire arc, would be nice to have consecutive issues.

Damn howd that happen? And wasn't McFarlane in court with gaiman over a character??
Just googled some articles. So Gaiman claimed 3 of mcfarlanes characters were his???

So did everything in DC get reset except for Batman and Green Lantern?
Also really not enjoying the new Justice League...it feels really fast paced and uninteresting. It's only redeeming qualities are the Shazaam stories. Also the news cast athe end really needs to go away...I honestly don't even bother reading them.

No no, they reset those too. Snyder's doing Batman's Zero Year for the next big arc.
You are right about Shazaam being the only decent thing about Justice League.
Probably not totally accurate but: Macfarlane was using the characters they cocreated without paying Gaiman royalties or something - Gaiman sued, won. Later, Macfarlane created some knockoffs for toys, more court battles - Gaiman apparently owns everything and gives Angela to Marvel (aka the company Todd left to form Image)
But New 52 Batman and GL refer to pre new 52 stuff.
Wow, thanks for the link dude!!! =)
Yup. As far as Batman goes all the writers just pick and choose what they want to be cannon at this point, which is everything. It wasn't so much a reset as it was a condensing.
Hmm. I might have to read this.

I tend to only read major events, arcs, and TPBs, but after reading AvX, I wanted to know where they went with it, so I started reading All-New X-Men, and now I'm completely hooked and pained that I have to wait month-to-month.
Same with GL. Some version of the big events still happened, just in a shortened time span.

I've loved Frazer Irving since Klarion the Witch Boy. His work on Batman and Robin and The Shade was all superb and I always get giddy when I see he's drawing an issue of something.
Ok Comic Gaf, recommend me something, I've just finishing an epic run of all invincible to date and loved it, previously I've really enjoyed locke and key, IDWs TMNT, Walking Dead.
I really want something like Invicible\Walking Dead with a consistent storyline throughout and a lot of issues out for me to knuckle down into. It's killing me after reading all the above stuff and now having to wait monthly for my fix, only for it to last 20 mins of reading.
EDIT> I've read Y The Last Man too, enjoyed it but it didn't hook me as consistently as the above and it kinda fell apart at the end.

Sold. That was great.
Read Preacher

And then 100 Bullets. Just go to your local comic shop and ask for "Hundie!" They'll know what you mean.
Preacher is more consistent with driving the story forward each issue. Sandman is awesome (probably my favourite series) but about half of it is longer story arcs with the other half being one-offs. A lot of the one-offs are very tangentially related to the overall plot. Much moreso than anything in Invincible, Walking Dead, or Y.
100 bullets seems to start off as a bunch of discrete story arcs (though each is longer than 1 issue), but later you see how they fit together.

Savage Wolverine #8
Original Costume is best costume.
When did Wolverine grow a mustache? Still, it fits him pretty well.

Its just the shadow of his mask lol it does look like a stache though.

Fear Agent, Transmetropolitan, American Vampire, and Irredeemable.
I know
But I can't see it any other way now XD
Some people don't like the ending, though. But I really liked it.

I was hoping you were joking about the stache lol but yeah I like the ending as well especially the homage to
Superman
Yeah, I really liked that. He redeemed himself, but not the way he expected. He didn't deserve what he had in mind, people in his universe loving him again.
Blue and Yellow is the original costume. Byrne changed it to brown and tan because he thought it was ridiculous that a Canadian superhero (who takes his namesake from the actual animal wolverine) would be costumed in the school colours of the Michigan Wolverines.
Yeah, brown costume is the best.
Fun game by the way, even better after you get him in dressed appropriately.
I had no idea. That explains why in the Wolverine Origins game the yellow costume is called "Classic" and brown is "Legendary".

Dang!!!
I had a few Nu52 Wonder Woman issues that I clearly never sat down and really read because holy moly, this series is amazing. Totally stand alone and really the closest thing to 100 Bullets Azz has done since that ended. I can't believe how great it is.

Best New 52 book there is *nods*
I'm catching up on Thor now after doing so on Ind. Hulk, it's really hard for me to get behind a book that introduces an " all powerful" enemy God killer. Apart from that, it's still a good book.

Now is the time for DC to get their act together and bring him back into DCU... imagine, Trinity of Sin: The Question #1 by Greg Rucka
Finally catching up on my fat stack that's been building in my box over the last 3 weeks.
I've missed so much.
Also my comic guy gave me a packet of #1's for Valiant Comics. Just finished with Manowar #1 and I'm definitely going to need to find the rest. Super stoked about a new brand to start reading.
