Fuck off Mei. Why do I keep unlocking your skins? I'm never gonna play as you.
pls...send to messi.
I mean...at its core it's about a guy who has the powers of animals...man. But I mean, Morrison's run is definitive and pretty god damn mind blowingly dronking awesome. Don't ask questions, just read.
I think you knowing jack shit about it puts you in an even better position to love the book.
You've purchased a fuck ton of books to build a collection, but it's not validated until you add Animal Man and Doom Patrol to your list.

Seconded. Amazing OT
(Since this is the comic thread though I would be remiss not to mention the IDW comic spoilers)
Got my first DC Absolute Edition in the mail today and holy shit are these things nice. High price for what is basically a 20$ trade but the quality alone makes it worth it. I got Morrison's Batman & Robin. Thinking about getting All Star Superman or Batman Inc. in the future. If anyone was on the fence about getting one id say do it for sure!
Also got Gotham Central omibus, Secret Warriors Complete Collection Vol. 1, Lazarus Vol. 1, and East of West year one. Havent read any of those yet and cant wait. Missed out on alot of Image stuff recently.

Everyone pointing out Gotham Central, I feel the need to say that Secret Warriors is an underappreciated gem.
Guys, do I need anything from this Garth Ennis sale on comixology?
I'm pretty sure I've at least heard The Boys get mentioned, but I can't remember in what capacity...

Checking stuff off my wishlist:
American Vampire Volume 1 - Had high expectations for this, but I didn't do much for me. I guess I was expecting some more horror in a comic that was touted on a lot of best horror comic lists, but it was more vampire action than anything else. The vampire designs were cool though
Outcast Volume 1 - Now that's more like it. So far nothing that hasn't been done in a bunch of other movies or shows before, but it has a wonderfully uneasy atmosphere thanks to the moody art and shadows, and the characters are engaging
Velvet up to #14 - Yes, this is good. This is really really good. An entire spectrum of spy fiction condensed into one gorgeous action-packed series, from Bourne-esque hard-hitting take-no-prisoners action to Cold War-era espionage to Bond-style gadgets to the one-woman-army agent of the likes of Salt and Nikita.
Nailbiter Volumes 1-4 - This started off intriguing but by the end of the fourth volume, the only reason I was turning the page was to see what new killer or gruesome kill the creators thought of next. No real answers, only more questions, and the storylines got ridiculous fast

Haven't read many vampire comics outside of 30 Days of Night. Is there anything like Wytches, but with vampires? I like my vampires as ruthless monstrous predators
not any that I can think of. American Vampire does get more violent/gruesome for sure as it goes on. some of the best stuff is actually outside of the first volume.
second cycle is full on primal fear.

I didn't get past the first volume of American Vampire either, maybe I'll give it another shot. Might as well I already own a bunch of it
if I don't forget I will do some summaries of what each arc is about with some pics. definitely my favorite Vertigo title.
so many great moments

Perfect. I needed this to distract from the heavy emotions of the Community series finale.
I realize I'm late to the party, but it's worth saying that I'm pretty sure that show's in my top ten and it hits pretty hard.
Anyways, no one cares because this is a

I got my first play of the game as Pharah! I was way up in the air on the Anubis map, and I saw what had to be the entire enemy team passing below me all scrunched together.
I just so happened to have an ultimate stored up.

In all of Valiant that I've read so far, by far the biggest disappointment is Quantum and Woody. Based on the description and the general tone that they're going for I thought i would love it, but I really really hate it. It might just be James Asmus, though, because I read The Deliquents and he's also terrible at Archer and Armstrong.
That mini had some good art though.
I do think they're all gone, Echo. But I'm glad you liked 4 Kids.
