Loot boxes are full of nothing but disappointment.
Just like comics!
edit: that's not fair to comics, loot boxes are definitely worse.

So is GL going to be about Jessica Cruz now? Are we finally done with Hal Jordan?

Yea Wally doesn't keep a secret identity
haha no, Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps is his new stopping point for Rebirth.
at all? so everyone in Central City knows who he is at the start of Johns run?

Okay, so can I avoid Hal Jordan by just reading this book?

Huh, I never realized that The Mask was based on a fucked up comic. Do the comics still hold up?
that exhaust pipe rape is mild as shit OP, the original script was actually more in line with the horrifying violent nature of the original comic that you mention
so idk maybe a remnant of that made to be funny
I think you'll get the least amount of Hal Jordan in that book.

He'd be better than the other candidates. He'd make ISIS do the job, brother!
So here I am with my thoughts of you
And this world I've left for me
Stoic faces when I think of you
And how I once believed
So now you call me, but you know I won't let you through
I've myself to decieve
So leave the memories alone
I don't want to see
The way it is, as to how it used to be
Leave the memories alone, don't change a thing
And I'll hold you here in my memory
No.
But the most Sam Humphries. Truly, you cannot win them all.
though i haven't read the last couple issues yet it's prettttttttttty good. That's a lot of money, have you read it? i'd go digital sale.
haven't read it at all but the rarity of it peeks my interest.
but digital is my best bet.

I would be deciding this too but I ordered it as soon as it went up for sale.

I wouldn't say "shit", but the early volumes were much better. I honestly had trouble following what was going on in Demons at times and the delays did not help. I have a high tolerance for fantasy bullshit, but there was just too much. To use the D&D metaphors the creatives like, it was like a game where each of the party goes on a solo moment and the DM has to awkwardly bring them together because hey, this is Dungeons & Dragons and the party hasn't had a fight for awhile. Also the best player quit the game and wants to be written out but the DM wants to leave things open (though that's just my bias).
Also, as much as that was my favourite avatar, a big part of me now wishes I'd picked a different character for my Ed-issued avatar. Now I just feel sad when I see it, for many reasons.
I still need to buy that hardcover, but I think at this stage it would be like pouring salt into a fresh wound.
it would help if they would post pics of what it looked like

Started reading the Kirby Omnibus v1. Collects some odds and ends of Kirby's various works at DC.
Some nice Twilight Zone type of tales. Short and with fun twists. Starts off with some predictions for the future. (This was from 1946 I think).
While some seem to have panned out somewhat.
Others might be a little more difficult to achieve.
I think there's a regular omnibus coming too, but not sure if HC or paperback.

I am assuming IST will have a discount on it.
SWEEEET
That's not the hardcover black edition with the free exclusive print that terry Moore is selling on his website.

Yeah. TheFlow was looking for something less expensive than $105. I was letting him know there is a less expensive edition releasing later.
It's paperback the only hardcover is the black edition
link? damn paperpack for a 42 issue series :/ in 2016

Yeah man the Arcudi stuff is pretty legit. I love it. It's a classic.
Pretty sure it's a financial thing. The reason Rachel is over is because he couldn't afford to keep going with the sales the way they are. The black edition is limited for huge fans and he can get exactly the amount of copies he needs. The other hardcovers he has made like this all sold out pre-sale and seem to go for $$$ on eBay.
looks like there will be a wide release hc version this fall XD
the strangers in paradise hc was on amazon for so long . wished I bought it.
yea, I looked on the official website and the price and release date for the regular omnibus matches with the pics I linked. plus same pic.
plus this

I read Demons in about an hour. It definitely felt like something was off compared to the previous volumes. Not just referring to Fowler's art, because as I said, I felt it was serviceable. Something was lacking. Pacing, maybe?I wouldn't say "shit", but the early volumes were much better. I honestly had trouble following what was going on in Demons at times and the delays did not help. I have a high tolerance for fantasy bullshit, but there was just too much.

It's almost like Wiebe didn't know what he was doing. It got all dark for no reason. Lost its humor roots for the most part. All stuff he admitted to and wanted to fix going forward.

The scene that really threw me off was when Hannah goes full demon in front of the mirror. I was like "What the fuck is this?" Had to stare at it awhile to figure it out. Not even out of arousal. Just confusion.
Good choice.
I just read Civil War 2 #0 off to a good start. Now please tell me Oliver Coipel is doing the art for all of civil war. He is an incredible artist and will make this event look stunning. His she hulk in this issue was drop dead gorgeous. Carol Danvers too. He doesn't do nearly enough work but I'm sure his art takes ages.
His art in Spider-Verse was the best I'm that event by a mile.
Edit : it's Marquez. Still good.
CWII is Marquez.
