Venom Blast is such a dick move, every time he uses that it goes on a list
Especially the whole invisibility/venom blast combo, total bullshit

He's pure.
Thanks a ton, guys!
Yeah, Pokemon is totally killing it for me. I'm sure this sounds incredibly silly to anyone who hasn't been playing the franchise for forever, but there are a ton of nice little minor quality-of-life tweaks that have me super happy. Like "oh damn, I evolved a Pokemon and it actually pulled up the Pokedex entry that I hadn't filled yet" or "oh man, the game's actually letting me swap the Pokemon I just caught into my team?!" They're small, but I really like that they did this stuff. Only thing I'm not so hot on is that wild Pokemon seem to call in pals a bit TOO often, which can get kind of obnoxious when trying to catch something.

Do Franklin, Reed, Sue and the Molecule Man still exist in the MU?
Since they're creating universes, I mean. Do they exist within a fictional space that contains the multiverse, and is itself simply another universe, or is it actually the space between these universes? A sort of anti-space, if you will. If the latter is true, is it actually a part of the Marvel universe, or is it a separate fictional entity?
Edit: I mean the 616 versions of these characters. There could be alternate versions on alternate Earths...it will be interesting to see if that's true, at least.

Haha definitrly, that has been an annoyance. There should be a limit on how many times they do it, or it should at least eat their turn. It's definitely this games hordes. Very true though, it's full of qol things. Just arrived on the second island!

Finished my DC shopping. I'm glad DC is making this an annual thing now. Hopefully they open it up to Rebirth issues next time.
I already had most of what I'd call essential runs/comics. So this time I started in on deeper cuts.
Notable pickups
- Stars and S.T.I.P.E - not the whole run as they're still a couple issues left to release but this is a fun comic that was one of John's earliest comics he did. This is where he created Courtney
- Manhunter - the Kate Spencer run
- Question - yea it's 80s grim comics but I really enjoyed this run
- more superman and Batman comics they released recently

she has no consistent personality quirks, rogues, supporting cast, or even easily defined power set
she's great in one-off or guest appearances, not ongoings
sounds like someone with squirrel powers
What did Beast Boy ever do to you?
Just seems hot Goth showgirl witch would be easy to write a television series or movie around.

I really wouldn't describe her as Goth. Raven fits that bill more than Zatanna.
This is 100% true.

The Dini run was fantastic, though. So I think a good ongoing story is sustainable with her.

I had to stop myself from buying a $500 laptop. All I came here for was Xenoverse 2 and Hateful Eight.
I am really sad that its over.
I think she is perfect for 6-12 issue limited series stuff.
I find most writers other than Dini struggle to write her.

Fair analysis. Speaking of Zatanna. I finally read Black Canary/Zatanna Bloodspell. That was a really fun read. I liked it a lot.
Great book. So great infact I bought a page from it. The one of Zee playing with the Black Canary and Arrow toys

So today I decided to revisit COD4:MW through the remastered version on PS4. Maaaaan this SP campaign is truly fantastic. I know this is the game that launched the "COD" look and feel for shooters but I'm really thinking it's the best "modernz' shooter campaign out there. And coming back to it after so many COD and other shooters after it it's amazing how much better COD4 is.
The levels don't over stay their welcome, the shooting is snappy and it's amazing how....restrained it is. Yes it's bombastic and has these COD staples but the story, characters, settings are so much more grounded. Music will,come and go but it's not afraid to just go silent and let the Warfare do the talking. And then you have the classic levels like All Ghillied Up, the mission with the AC-130, the tanker. Ah! So good

This is wonderful. Noticed this as well. I might try some Young Animal madness.
This is terrible.
Dini is the only one who can get her. However, Starfire and Raven are basically her combined.
Nu52 Lobo was a different Lobo
Doom Patrol is really fun. Great art.
I bought 70 DC books just now. But now the wishlist is much lighter.

Old Lobo is back in Harleys Little Black books next issue.
check out the art...it is totally not what you are expecting...that shits totally black and white.

Just openly summarize Claremont's X-Men as your mantra. Customers love that
That face is creeping me out.
Imagine if...Gwen and Miles kissed.But like...for real. Spider-couple.
Love it!
Black Friday shopping done already - ran into Walmart, bought Skate 3, FFX/X2, and Battlefield 1 in about 10 minutes. Ordered Mafia 3 and Dishonored 2 online.
