I have some questions about the more recent issues of Wicked + Divine. Spoilered just in case.

Spoiler

- What kind of powers does Woden have? Seems still unclear. He says he'd trade with anyone and that his only power is granting fame to others (Valkyries). Most bitter and angry god.
- What's the story between Baal and Inanna? Baal threw Inanna into a wall because of the prison drama with Luci, but in the rave issue we learn there might've been more there. Is it implied they had a thing going and Baal was jealous because Inanna cheated on him with Luci? That's what I got out of it.

 

[zennyzz]

fuck, this planet X story line is really good

 

[BossDarkseid]

Oh! Alright, thanks.

Yep. Also there was a weekly called Countdown to Infinite Crisis but it's like that Lion King meme. The only things you need to know...I don't think these are particular spoilers but i'll tag them just incase

Spoiler

Nix Utoan, a Monitor, failed to protect his designed universe of Earth-51, and there was a war in "heaven"/the Fourth World (apokolips and new genesis) and Orion killed Darkseid, causing his god-soul to fall to Earth where it found a new body

It's basically precursor info for Final Crisis stuff, but no Seven Soldiers spoilers, i think. I've never read it so if there is, it's unintentional

Wait, so you got to Coyote Gospel and stopped? Or were you just afraid that after the first arc, it would drag down without B'Wana Beast?

Coyote Gospel is so damn good:

Coyote Gospel is so damn good:

That one issue pretty much set the tone for everything he would do for the rest of his career (pretty sure this came out before phase three of Zenith started).

I spent all day doing yard work today, I think I'll spend tomorrow reading Animal Man again.

I've been using these breakdowns when reading Multiversity. I highly reccomend:

Which one? The Rival, Thawne, or Hunter Zoloman?

Multiversity: Ultra Comics was insane. So amazing.

 

[TI82]

Now there needs to be a Aliens Vs. Archie.

Next up is...

Not really feeling it, I will read issue 1 to see how it is though.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Multiversity: Ultra Comics was insane. So amazing.

That was one of my favorite issues. And as simple as it is, I really like Ultra's actual design.

You kinda deserved that Barry...

I love old comics so much.

Seriously, Silver Age comics are the best.

Barry was such a goon.

Tomorrowland was really good. Got major 80s adventure flick vibes from it.

 

[TheKaeptain]

Should just be a thread on all of them.

I am interested here, too but I think I will wait for the Blu-Ray.

I picked up reading Superior Foes of Spider-Man again on MU. It's weird that we got this book but man I really like it. I'm probably gonna end up burning through the rest of the series by the end of the night

No you won't

Spoiler

Last issue isn't up yet

 

[Zombine]

I don't know how you guys can wait 6 months to finish a series...

 

[Serpentine]

No you won't

Goddammit

If I'm really feeling it I'll just buy it on CMX

Spoiler

and then they'll end up putting it up tomorrow

 

[Rhaknar]

yes you do, you read Hawkeye

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

$4-5 an issue makes it really easy. Besides once you get on the monthly MU schedule it's the same kind of monthly schedule. Time is relative maaaaaaan

Also this. we didn't start the series at the same time as people that bought them, so you can argue we wait 6 months to start them, not to finish them

 

[Tyrant Rave]

yo damn

 

[Zombine]

[LaunchpadMcQ]

damn yo, Hickman's Fantastic Four... this is the longest comic reading session I've ever done. It has literally become too physically uncomfortable for me to continue reading for today.

Sounds like you need to find a more comfortable reading position.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

I've read half that first omnibus tho.

Sounds like you need to find a more comfortable reading position.

I'm not sure there is one in this case... I remember one of you guys making a troll post in Zombine's FAQ about comfortable omnibus reading positions, but the struggle is too real

 

[Rhaknar]

Thank you, I'll be here all night

...like, for realsies, I'm at work so I'm here all night >_>

More Black Panther? More Black Panther

That wasn't a troll post. Kipp's patented Omnibus Reading Postion (ORP) is the right way to be reading your giant ass omnibi.

And yeah, makes your forearms get jacked.

I'm going to need a detailed diagram explaining how this sorcery works

The image in that old ass post is dead, so we're gonna need to Kipp to come in here. Honestly the only way to go when you're handing those big fucking books.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Kipp pls, you're my only hope of finishing this omni today

 

[tim1138]

The last page of that issue was Barry grabbing Iris by the arm and forcing her to go out with him. Since it's Silver Age comics, Iris loved it and Barry's new "masterful" behavior. Oh comics.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Kipp pls, you're my only hope of finishing this omni today

I searched on Google "kipp official omnibus reading position". I love that this exists in the Internet

Christ, don't use any unapproved positions. You will hurt yourself.

Looks like kipper is settling down for a quick rub n tug

 

[tim1138]

Silver Age Green Lantern is equally cheesy and great. Every issue pretty much boils down to Hal's ring being a deus ex machina that can literally do anything, and then trying to make Carol fall in love with him instead of Green Lantern.

I legitimately thought that's what I was looking at for a good 20 seconds.

I'm still convinced that's what it is.

On the other hand, he editted in Kipp's comic, so thanks much for that. Fortunately, I have recliners.

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person that has never really struggled with reading omnibuses.
