I can't really think of any situation where spawn of: Myself, Messi, Tyrant, GH, Freeza, Psychbat, or Kipp would ever be a good thing. It's up to the rest of you to move the positive genes forward.

Superior Foes of Spiderman #17
Great ending to an amazing series. Will forever be one of my instant go-to recomendations. I'm not even sad it's over, it had a good run and I don't think it would work much longer anyway. Everyone should read this.

Seriously one of my favorite issues ever. I laughed so hard at this issue.
I really need to finish that series. I don't know why I stopped.

Anyone else find it weird that San Andreas isn't a GTA movie? I like to pretend it is.
Speaking of Comic Strips, I'm definitely going to pick up that Calvin & Hobbes complete collection.

I have that. It's a beast but it's awesome
Good to hear!
If I didn't already have all the individual collections, I would be all over that. And even still I'm tempted to get the hardcover complete collection.
And also speaking of comic strips, any Pearls Before Swine fans here?
Calvin & Hobbes and Pearls Before Swine are pretty much the only two comic strips I still genuinely enjoy. The rest kind of lost most of their charm.
What about Bone?

Pearls Before Swine is legitimately great. Have you checked out Get Fuzzy? It's like Garfield's misanthropic cousin, but with good art and writing.
...
Okay, not much like Garfield other than it stars a bachelor, a cat, and a dog.
Woooo. Got my monthly paycheck today. $$$$$$$$$$$$
Time to not spend it on comics!
Oh geez. I completely forgot about Bone. I still haven't read it, but I really need to.

One of my favorite things about Pearls Before Swine is the commentary in the big collections. Also Pig.
...I'm going to go read Pearls Before Swine now. It's been way too long.
And I've read a few strips of Get Fuzzy here and there but it never really did anything for me. Dunno. Maybe I just haven't read it consistently enough to get a feel for the characters and humor and whatnot.
Oh, and speaking of amazing comic strips, Bizarro is consistently hilarious and amazing. I don't think there are any decent-sized Bizarro collections though which is really annoying. I've seen little gift-sized, 50-ish page collections of it before, but that's it. I need a massive book of Bizarro comics.

Bone doesn't count. That's no comic strip.
It's amazing, probably the first comic that I really got into as a kid.
I think it's even in color now, maybe I should reread.
...It's a space station.
Just read some Pearls Before Swine. Even funnier than I remembered. That's a great comic strip.
That's an awesome illustration.
And cool. It's definitely something I want to read eventually. I just need to find the time.

17 issues was perfect, maybe could have hit 20 but was still great.
Now I want the real Thunderbolts back along with the MIA Songbird and more villain books (Doom pleeease).

Hey Messi. Did you get this reference??
Oh hey Kipp is a Pearls Before Swine fan, right on man! Stephen Pastis is frickin brilliant, I love all of his crossovers in his strip and how he portrays himself in the comic as a lazy bum who got dumped by his wife lol. Rat is pretty much me on bad days and doesn't give a damn.
I loved the Garfield Pearls strip where Stephen had to beg on his knees to Jim Davis not to sue him. There were some not so subtle shots at his corporate empire hehe.

Haha yes! So great.
And I'm not sure if I remember that Garfield crossover. Was that semi-recent? I just looked up the currently released treasuries and it looks like there are two out that I don't have, so I'm even more behind on it than I thought. I really need to pick those up soon. I'll probably re-read all the stuff I do have (pretty much everything from the beginning through the Pearls Blows Up treasury) and then pick up those two.
The Garfield thing was semi-recent I think, I read it in the paper about 6 months ago if I recall correctly.
I need to pick up more of the Pearls collections, I'll probably have to end up ordering off of Amazon.

I didn't like that mini as much as I wanted to.
Kathryn Immonen confuses me, I feel like I'm always a step behind. The art was good though.

Destiny is not on my side
Unlucky with drops?
Kind of.
Yeah, I bought it for my wife and nearly gave myself a hernia dragging it home from the past office.
Got me a lot of sex though, because it's fucking awesome.

Are you talking about Destiny the videogame?
