This page is creepy already.
Shame on everyone NOT recommending X-Com before. That game is amazing.
Hearing that Amadeus is back in Avengers really makes me wanna catch up with Avengers/New Avengers since oh man I loved Incredible Herc, but I have to admit I'm a bit intimidated by the reading order.
What is this Armstrong and Archer? Incredible Herc and Amadeus Cho?

Hahaha. Oh man. Just read the last two issues of The Auteur. That was such a fantastic read. Absolutely hilarious.
The last issue especially, I was laughing the whole way through.
That book was too much fun. I'm already looking forward to re-reading it.

The whole scene where everyone is drenched in blood because the drugs/spider venom caused them to bleed profusely. And when he introduced the premiere of his movie while being super depressed because the girl didn't show up with "Good Evening. Nothing exists except atoms and empty space. Everything else is fucking opinion."
That book was too much fun. I'm already looking forward to re-reading it.
I think that was about the time I started lurking the thread. Can't remember for sure though.
You guys know me too well. Haha
Kipp please be advised that Harley Quinn Vol 1: Hot in the city is out this Wednesday and that you should drop it into your next IST order. You can thank me later. I think you will enjoy it.

^I'm pretty sure they made a bunch more of the keys than just those four.
This is actually the reprint. It came out a while ago. The new edition comes out this week for $99, but IST should have it for $50.

It's pretty much agreed that the Wii U version is the all around most definitive. It does cool stuff with the gamepad. The PC version looks good but had some issues.

You guys kept mentioning it nonstop, so it eventually picked my curiosity, i mean, who the fuck likes hawkeye, of all people? So i read the 20 issues.
Gods, she's so great. Barney too.
Could do with quite a lot less emo clint and brossians, tho.

So Amanda Conner, Jimmy Palmioti, Todd Nauck D), Mike Deodato Jr., Kyle Higgins, Scott Lobdell (...), Man of Action (for some reason), Greg Land (for some reason), and several other folks are all coming to a new covention in my area next February. Do I take the plunge, ComicsGAF?

Why wouldn't you?
Maybe you could commission Greg Land to draw something without tracing.

nah, you're good. It doesn't really play it safe (well, obvi) and sometimes it doesn't hit the mark. But when it does, lol. Glad to see another reader. I'm about due for a reread soon

Anytime I hear the term "Golden Age arc", I automatically think of Berserk.
Now I'm disappointed.

We need more Olivia Wilde GIFs, Messi.

There's no reason not to.
I mentioned it in one of these threads before but a new convention (Zappcon) started up in my city this weekend. It has a mixture of everything from comics, role-playing, anime, video games, among many other hobbies. I only attended the first day and was mainly looking to fill up my sketchbook. Unfortunately, I didn't take any pictures while I was at the con.
One of the artists that caught my eye was Justin Prime. He was selling some of his prints and his TMNT piece looked great. I asked if he was comfortable drawing Batman and he said sure. I gave him my sketchbook and he asked if he could look at other drawings that were done in my book. I said sure and as soon as he flipped it open, he saw Edwin Huang's commission and just about turned over. He flipped to the next page and saw Long Vo's. He reluctantly says "...I know these guys. And you want me to follow them up? DAMN!" He chuckled and I gave him my utmost confidence that he'll do good based on the prints he had on his table. He even posted a video on his Instagram of this dilemma. Here's the finished product. It was only $10 and I was floored at how amazing it was. I tipped him some extra cash and I think he was happy with how it came out as well. Very humble guy. I'll definitely look for him again if I attend the cons that he's going to.
I was most excited to meet Khoi Pham. His art is crazy good in the few Daredevil issues he's worked on. It sucks that I had went digital for a few months and it was during those Daredevil issues that he drew in. Oh well, I wanted his art to grace my sketchbook and this is what he came up with. Phamtastic! I love the crosshatching.
There was another artist (Richard Jacobo, http://instagram.com/rjacobot) that I wanted to get art from and he was only charging $5 for a sketch card-sized drawing! He had a backlog of sketches to get done and I didn't plan to stay there for any longer, so it was a no-go.
Something of note, once we got home, we decided to check out our little swag bags. In one of them, we got a paper saying that we won a prize and for us to go redeem it. Of course, this was after we had already left and we don't plan on going on the second day. I wonder what we would have won...

Those Batman sketches are pretty dang good. Bii has definitely not been here the last few days, lol. Sounds like a dece' con though!
Why post Olivia Wilde GIFs, when we could have the superior Jennifer Lawrence?

Argh, if GH can get his list down to 26 there's no excuse not to drop mine to 40.
Superior Foes and Hawkguy are both ending soon, right?
Edit: and you're even counting weeklies four times....damn. Impressive work, sir.

Let's speed along to the next page so we don't have to look at Olivia Wilde's horrifying attempt to look sexy anymore.

Wrapped up Multiple Warheads today, which was okay. All the weirdness and puns you'd expect from Brandon Graham, but it's pretty aimless. King City, and Prophet for that matter, does a far better job of providing all that plus actual plots and forward momentum.

I could have waffled over it longer but I knew if I didn't tear into it with a vengeance I wasn't going to be able to make any real headway. Of my original 50 only like 5ish were what I'd call buying just because, you know the stuff that's read last if at all. My target goal was 20 but I just couldn't make that happen. I ended up deciding that I wanted Batman, Superman, Green Lantern as the core of my pulls and then added Earth 2 and Wonder Woman as the secondary.
