Yeah, I really enjoyed that entire scene. When the goons crash through the wall, there's some great play with the effects there as well.

heck yeah

the lightning strike a few pages before that too!!

and SHAZAM! in DK2

One of my favorite panels, that I never really took notice of before, was during the whole "awakening" scene, how when Thomas and Martha's deaths are interspliced in the panels, there are a bunch with the classic image of Matha's pearl necklace coming apart, but then there's one of it back together and whole just as Bruce decides to become the Bat once again

i think him losing his moustache around when that happens is such a funny gag too

I just can't get over how good Gotham Central is. The stories and writing are SO compelling, the characters are interesting and varied, and the art is so nice. It's not really detailed, but it's very cinematic with some great angles and direction.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

I only managed to read the first two chapters so far, but it's really good so far. Never managed to get into American comics besides the casual Batman or Hawkeye every once in a while, but this is right up my alley!

Painted on black paper does great things to the atmosphere and if the writing keeps up, I can see myself buying all of the Library books.

Is Hellboy consistent in its quality? It seems like there is a new writer from Library part 4 onwards? Do you recommend a place where I should cut off, or should I just keep reading?

It actually gets better. The second library edition is entirely comprised of short stories, so keep that in mind if you pick it up. But it stays great throughout. The final trilogy and Conqueror Worm are the real highlights IMO.

Mike Mignola does stop doing the art after Library Edition 3, but he remains on writing, so if you like the writing that won't change. The artists he picks are fantastic so it's not a huge loss.

 

[tim1138]

So this includes trades I'm guessing? GNNNNNH. So much to buy. My credit card is already screaming

Yep, anything that's 90 days old.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

DC is running a B1G1 sale on Cyber Monday on books over 90 days old. Time to flesh out my Silver Age Flash collection.

I think I might go for all of Starman.

You are in for a treat. I read it all over the summer. It's so good.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Alright my CMX wishlist is setup for the DC sale. Now all I gotta do is wait.

 

[tim1138]

I highly recommend the original (and only good) Suicide Squad run by John Ostrander for anyone looking to take advantage of the DC sale on Monday.

Seconded.

Well, I actually enjoyed bits and pieces of the New 52 run.

But Ostrander's SS the GOAT for sure.

I hate Comixology and their tendency to have sales right after I blow my last bit of money for the month on statues or other comics. I'd love the Ostrander SS run. Or Clannad on Steam. Or Alias on CMX. alas.

Kabuki Library Edition v2 is out today on IST. They seem to be releasing these at a fairly quick pace.

Usagi Yojimbo Saga v5 is out too.

 

[Freezasaurus]

I emailed a nice letter to my comic guy about my move to digital. He said he's sorry to see me go but he understands.

I am now free of the print menace. Enjoy your floppies, you tree-murderers. I'll still be buying trades, tho.

Seconding Rumble. Arcudi da god.

Also, Giant Days, even though it's not on sale. $7 for the best hijinks book on the shelves.

 

[Owzers]

That's what everyone thinks before the out of stock sign gets put up.

I cancelled my battlefront best buy in-store pickup copy even though i got it for $30, then it gets announced that there will be more free maps for it. To make up for it, i bought a copy of CoD Advanced Warfare ps4 for $11.99 ( $7 with my $5 coupon thingy)....i don't think this worked out well, i feel like the Rockets after firing McHale.

 

[Brian Fellows]

Rumble is another one of those books I was interested in until I saw the art.

That would have still been a bad deal even if they had paid you $12 to take AW off their hands.

Hah I need to do prep because it's only one day and a work day. Usually these mega sales last a couple days so I can work through the entire catalog in time. I wouldn't want to wait until the last couple hours of the sale to start working.

Man I've got all sorts of goodies lined up. I can't wait!

Fighter Squadron alone is more fun than AW's multiplayer.

I hate when somebody is wrong in the internet. And I have to stay up im 5 hours.

Black ops was my favorite game in the series. I really miss those maps. Since then the games keep getting faster and faster and I keep getting older.

Yup, plus Vol. #2 of Squirrel Girl, so I'm definitely placing an order.

Also, to confirm for Baltimore I'm seeing four trades on IST for the comic stuff, would that indeed be all of it? That+Sledgehammer 44 is all I still need Mignola-wise...

 

[Messi]

Has anyone looked at the Uncanny X-Men #1 preview? What's with the lack of backgrounds in 90% of the panels. Just colour gradients. I think I might pass even though I love the characters on the team. I can't take that art.

It's hilarious, especially considering the whole moment.

And dude, I've never read Dark Knight Strikes Again. I'm going into it super fucking excited though, so I'll probably talk about it at the end of the week.

Planet Hulk #1 (secret wars) is fantastic so far, really enjoying everything about it.

Don't see anything on the IST sale that I really ~need~. I was hoping for some Fantagraphics things that I was looking at to go on sale but they have the normal price, sigh.

 

[Owzers]

I decided to try out some more Guardians of the Galaxy after reading the Jean in Cages crossover story with All New, started the new story arch issue #14 where Venom joins the team and the issue seemed kinda dull and Venom called Drax "Mr. Drax". That was weird. The story is still Starlord and his father having aggressive conversations.
