What if I told you the cover will be pink faux leather?
Also not every great image book gets hardcovers. Like Rumble
I just hope they finish the series.

The Wild Storm #4: The arc finally gets to breath a little. This series is going to read so well in trades. I really don't know how Ells and Davis-Hunt are pulling off this pacing. The panel to panel storytelling feels rather decompressed -
. But once the issue is done, it feels like so much has happened in it. Davis-Hunt continues to be bloody brilliant and Buccellato is doing such a great job with the colours. (
)
I also loved
action scenes or the characters just talking while consuming alcohol (becoming somewhat of a theme) to the three page reveal of the space station (our first 2-page spread and it is definitely effective).
Those panels with the sunset over the water looked awesome.
I also loved
the tone for Bendix. Once he relaxed inside the room, I almost thought we were going to get an Iron Man 3 Mandarin style twist...

How far have you got with the book man? I'm at the end of vol 2, kind of not sure where I'm at with it. Really was into vol 1 while they were on the hunt and great ending, but book 2 felt a little too stationary and settled in the formula. Still a good book but I'm not sure. I know there's a break after vol 3 anyway so I'll probably pick it up but just interested in how other folks are getting on with it.
I honestly don't think that's gonna happen.

I've been banned many times. Shocking I know.
Was it because you read comics?
Luke Cage was so good.
Dropping Nick Fury.
I dislike the art in Generation X and it's throwing me off.
I'm all in on Royals.
Secret Empire - T___T
Dropping Monsters Unleashed.
Street Fighter vs Darkstalkers is gorgeous.
I just I'll have to get Deathstroke since I liked Titans and Teen Titans.
I don't likeSE events in general because they fuck with everyone's continuity. Like, the event has everyone in it (like Ironheart and Luke Cage) and neither one of their comics is dealing with it. Plus
I dunno. I'm liking the DC approach of crossing into each others' comic more, simply because it forces the event to happen that much faster.

Also, they made a joke about Chunners thighs.
I don't like
Jessica Jones and Luke are talking which is odd because Luke is super pissed at her in her ongoing.

Haven't been banned since I started reading again. Maybe comics tamed the monster inside me?
Disgraceful behaviour. See what image comics does to people
I blame Remender and BKV for showing promoting heavy drug use and showing that abuse is the norm.

Wait, Arrow season 5 main antagonist is
- Related comic spoiler -
Prometheus? Dammit, I have to watch it now.
Does he appear a lot in the comics? I know he was in Morrison's JLA ( I really enjoyed that arc). And in Midnighter. Any other major appearances?

He's named Prometheus, but that's where the relationship to the comics character ends.
Honestly for the best. Comics Prometheus has exactly 2 decent appearances and you've already read both of them. Arrow Prometheus is a way better villain.

Monthly reminder that if you love God Country as much as I do, you should check out The Paybacks from Dark Horse
Brian Fellows
Pete Carroll Owns Me
I'm gonna have to check God Country first. It's getting atoo much love from too many different places to continue to ignore it.
It's a mini series so depending on how you want to collect it you might be better to wait for the trade in August.

Well... yeah, but remember Paybacks after!
gonna trade wait then.

I'll grab them for 1.99 each on CMX.
Just looked it up. Sounds really cool.
I might get really crazy and check them out at the same time.
Yeah, there's no point in waiting if you're going digital.

So if anyone will discuss this with me, regarding Taskmaster's actions in Deadpool vs. Punisher 3:
My friends are both saying that Taskmaster was fucked up//brutal there, but I feel like, while villainous, what he did was more morally grey than black. While Marianna wanted to give Hudson a life away from the criminals and such, she also stole the backup numbers, too, which makes me think her motivations weren't exactly pure either. She -had- to know that taking those numbers would attract a ton of heat, endangering her kid.
When Taskmaster finds out his money - billions of dollars - not to mention many other organizations' are in this kid's head, and not in a computer like he thought, he wants to borrow the kid. He mentions giving him back, but naturally, the mother, Marianna, isn't a fan of the idea, and opens fire. Taskmaster, annoys, beheads her with his shield throw.
While it was a brutal decision, I don't feel Marianna was as innocent as claimed here. She seemed -really- invested in the codes that Hudson had, and while Task's brutal dispatching of her was definitely cold, he did give her a chance to stand down and she shot at him.

Good timing with that post. I JUST finished reading this:
Whatsinaname inspired me to re-read this book and I'm loving it even more this time.
That was such a great issue. I'd take an entire series of that.

I just realized. Cap's shield shouldn't bounce at all, since its whole thing is that it absorbs all vibrations and force. Without vibrations, it should just thud limply into targets, lol.
I mean, hardly the biggest realism sin of comics, but it made me laugh.

Well goddamn.... Secret Empire #2. Only two issues in and this event already jumped the shark. What am I even reading? GG Spencer. I'm out.

He should just stick to comedic crime stories.
Only picked up Luke Cage and Royals
Good start to Cage, I wanted this Cage since PM/IF, weird that Jessica will be out of the picture
Royals, man, Ewing went deep like always.
Is Nick Fury any good or do I wait til the trade which will likely be the only thing we get from it?

It doesn't get better. Just skip straight to the Button crossover.
I just read the two latest issues of Daredevil and I really liked the ending to this arc explaining how Matt got his secret identity back.
I love how
I love how
the Purple Man had every era of Daredevil fighting over what's the worst possible thing Matt could ever do while he's in actuality controlling him. At first he takes Matt to go kill his girlfriend, but Matt has already been through that before and convincing the Purple Man he needs to go bigger. The answer they give and the explanation provided for it was really good.
It's a four part Flash and Batman crossover in their ongoings.
