Love that Stargirl JLU cover. I hope my shop carries these.

Those are rad. I bought the Bombshell art prints of WW and Stargirl from TFAW. Didn't grab Harley (sorry, Messi). I hope they make more.
Hopefully the covers are giving away some of the future Bombshells statue designs..
Hawkgirl got swapped to the Earth 2 version from the one we saw on the print.
God damn, give me all of them as Bombshell statues. If I can only have one I want Batwoman, holy shit that is incredible.
Wonder Woman and Supergirl were Ant Lucia.

Speaking of Bombshells, I had to buy this. I know, I know. No one uses calendars anymore, but I usually buy one every year just to brighten up my computer room / office (as if the $5,000+ of pvc figures and display cases doesn't do the job).
So I was reading some of the newer X books (X-Men, All New X-Men, and Uncanny X-Men), and these crossover titles are a mess.
Scarlet Spider-Man was also terrible with this.
Are most Marvel crossovers like this?
The few Batman family stuff that I read (like Court of Owls and Death of the Family) were at least made sense as standalone stuff, but I had absolutely no idea what was going on in the X-Men stuff.

Thanks. Just bought myself one. Still collecting the statues myself.

There's "events" where it's a complete story in one book with other books tying in, and then there are "crossovers" where part 1, 2, 3 an 4 happen in 4 different books. You needed to read Battle of the Atom across 4 series in order for it to make sense.
Also good for the Messi in your life.

If you're reading the trades from the beginning, early issues of Uncanny X-Men and All-New X-Men kind of ran parallel to each other. You'd get an issue of each in the same month set in the same time frame, so reading the trades may seem a bit messy, but it worked pretty well when they were actually being released.

The Woods did not elicit any kind of strong reaction from me whatsoever. I like the concept ok though
But anyway Chris Burnham drew a short Judge Dredd story in the 2000 AD FCBD book and it looked dope. I want him to draw more Dredd

They're pretty great with packaging.
Ah man, I'm thinking maybe I should pick this up.
After having not been able to get certain comics from my shop (we only have one LCS within a 50 mile range!) as soon as it opens, I've been resorting to ordering my stuff online from Midtown. I asked the owner if I can get a pull list going and he says there's a waiting list and it may or may not open up in a few weeks/months but I can check back from time to time. Of course, I spoke with him over the phone and he probably didn't know I'm a regular unless he saw me in person. It's difficult to support your local comic store when they don't have the options to get you what you want or if it's even available.
I'll head down there tomorrow and speak with him in person to see if he'll let up.Serpentine

It's true, most stories ever in the world do not have Batman in them, so they're all set really

I went in thinking he'd sound like a buffoon, but nothing he said was actually offensive or that dumb and he made a great point about Agents of Shield. I want to go into this show positively, because it could be incredible, but fuck, the internet is making it hard.

What's the verdict on Young Avengers volume 2? I have the first issue and thought it was only okay, but I ended up really digging the Kid Loki Journey into Mystery stuff, and I think the Protector/Noh-Varr can be a compelling character when done well.
Should I give it a few more issues? Or did it never rise to greatness? I liked the old post-Disassembled Young Avengers a lot if it helps.

Ok but it's never good or great
Yeah it's ok but it never really amounts to much. Kid Loki is awesome.

It's a good follow up on Kid Loki, but the book itself is pretty meh-ish. It has some good stuff though.
It's a bridge between the two good Loki books.

Woah, Green Arrow. Outsiders War concludes but there's already another exciting ass story by the issue's end? Fuck this book is dominant.

welllllllllllllll
maybe
although being a fan already doesn't always entail a bias, but then again maybe y'all don't like GOOD ASS FASHION AND POP MUSIC so maybe that does apply here

I think it will read much better collected though. The entire series was this big arc that felt a little pretentious and meandering at parts. I would have liked a breather issue in between because I really liked the team.
If you liked JiM, you'll have a couple of surprises.
But those panel arrangements were something else:

Mark Waid's Daredevil. Here's the oversized hardcover vol. 1 which features those scenes. Read the entire series, which is still going on, homie.

Cross posting from the Buy / Sell / Trade thread but seeing as a couple of gents asked here are the graphic novels I am looking to sell. If you are interested send me a PM, thanks!
I'm looking to liquidate my collection of graphic novels. Prefer to ship in bulk. Will update with rough prices but please send me a PM if you are interested in some books. Thanks!
I already have way too many comics to read... but I really want to buy quite a few of those.
Also, total longshot, but on the topic of buying and selling TPBs, nobody happens to have Morrison's Batman: The Black Glove story in any of its collected editions (paperback, standard hardcover, deluxe hardcover, new TPB with Batman and Son and The Black Glove) that they want to sell, do they? It's the one missing piece before I have the whole run in collected edition. Well, I don't have Batman and Robin or Batman Inc. in collected editions yet, but I'm going to get the Absolute editions of both when Absolute Batman Inc. comes out.
