Rockets were dead after game 5s crushing OT loss. I'm dead inside.
I can't wait to read clutchfans.
I'm good. I know my team are a laughing stock right now. Gonna cancel league pass and cash out. No interest in watching Golden State walk on the spurs and then win the title.

Well I'm sticking with "believe it when I see it." Bunn managed to walk the walk after talking the talk, so I am more optimistic, but cautious.
Waid needs to avoid all social media. He goes into too much of an Olbermann-esque panic about things. That can't be healthy for someone that's notorious for wanting to publicly burn a bridge or two.
I miss when he told stories about heroes and wasn't reacting to his timeline.

This justifies that big hysteria about people putting razor blades in candy on Halloween

They made Barry and Hal look cool
The X-Men are funded through their own riches. Angel and Xavier were the biggest ones. The FF probably make money off of Reed's inventions and government funding.

That was fairly recent. Slott hs hated Rich's guts a lot longer than that.
Were they not able to find who did this?

Nobody likes Rich. But that recent thing was when it became personal and not the same "you and your website are awful" that everyone feels.

At the start of Wolverine and the X-Men, Wolverine takes Quinton Quire into space to gamble (telepathically cheating to win) at an intergalactic casino to get enough money to cover costs.
The FF are a non profit. I believe they make most of their funding through Patents and Gramts. They also made money I. The early series by lisencing their adventures to the in universe Marvel Comics.

Steph Batgirl is great, definitely read it.
Bryan Q Miller's run was so under-appreciated. The dynamic of Steph and Damian was second only to Dick & Damian.

I'm torn on that DC Metal image.., I can't decide if it's awesome or ridiculous.

It's both.
Okay, shall look into that series. 24 issues wouldn't be so hard to swallow either if I dig it.
It is ridiculously awesome!
It is ridiculously awesome!

At least one of those is correct, and at least one of those is wrong.

[IMG]https://i.imgur.com/2BpKNWq.jpg[/IMG]There's a depressing lack of good comic book channels on Youtube.
You can find interesting channels that do reviews or just other reviews centered around music, movies, video games and pretty much all other forms of media but there's barely any for comic books.
Wish someone would come along that did videos like the ones iFanboy would do.

I thought Batman: Metal was about Batman starting a Metal band with his family
That's the backup.

I think it might be Scott Snyder's backup career for when fandom turns on him haha brother Scott and brother Greg and all the family. A country duet at very least

Nice. Mongul has really had a surge in appearances recently, huh?New DC Metal image:
You're in luck. DC are reprinting Steph's book this year if you want to go physical.

I guess Variant is the biggest but in the off random miniscule chance you missed it, i've listened quite a bit to him. Nice production values.

The batman reborn era was great, that was just about exactly when I got into DC and went back and read Morrison's bat run to that point. Batman & Robin, Batgirl Rising, Batwoman Elegy followed by The Black Mirror, Streets of Gotham. Even Red Robin was decent enough.
I'll look at my options. I might just go digital with Starman and SMT in the next DC linewide sale on comixology. Probably should have done that from the start but I wanted physical editions of this older DC material for my collection.

I've been feeling the urge to re-read Morrison's Batman run recently. It was great when I first read it a couple of years ago, but his books always benefit from a re-read.
Maybe I'll be able to understand more than about 10% of Final Crisis this time.

Same but I don't actually have any of it </3 I skipped Final Crisis back then, knowing I would probably not even reach your 10% but would like to give all his stuff a shot at some point, really dig in.
Read Dark Night: A True Batman Story.
It okay, nothing really out there. I think some impressions that I read made me think it was going to be something that it wasn't. Repeatedly I heard that it was very emotional and it made people cry, so I was ready to get the tissues out for it but I honestly have no idea what part made people emotional.
Speaking of Grant Morrison's Batman, that also didn't resonate with me too much. Read from Black Glove to Batman and Robin and nothing really stood out as all that great to me.
Cool, I'll check them out.
[edit]
I did like Batman and Robin more than the previous ones, though.
