There is going to be a good Black Panther book? Zomg.
I actually looked through the complete list of today's releases. Aw, just like the olden days.
I'm not getting anything but The Spire #3. Are you people still sleeping on Spurrier? This is him teamed up with Stokely who drew the stunning Six Gun Gorilla. Ok, well, to be honest, I'm sleeping on him too. I'm behind on all the things and only newly getting back into comics. But yeah I haven't read #1 or #2 yet, though I know enough to buy them. Duh.

The mini Wilds End Enemy Within by Dan Abnett is starting today from Boom. Looks good. Quite possibly a worthwhile investment given Abnett. Preview:

But I'll just continue catching up on Saga. Next is volume 4 which I've heard is a bit of a bore.
Yay! Congrats.

Is anyone excited for the new James Bond comic by Warren Ellis? I'm thinking of adding it to my list for November.

Just finished my November order form.
DC - 2
Marvel - 3
Image - 10
Other - 3
Marvel, you're down there with DC. in theory the Image book count could be even higher, but thankfully some titles don't ship every month or else I'd be looking harder at making some cuts (and I am looking).
Also, to tie back into what we were discussing earlier, three books listed at $4.99 as an "introductory" price. Of those three, two will come with digital codes and 40 pages, and one will come at a whopping 72 pages but no code.

That is about what my buys are going to look like too. I keep picking up Image titles and losing interest in stuff from the big 2.

No Sunstone or Death Vigil. Hmmm. I didn't want to be friends anyway.

Does Sunstone really count since it's trade waiting by default?
Death Vigil I don't really have an excuse lol I just bought it.
EDIT: also, you tricked me, Death Vigil ended

If you have Comixology on the Windows app you have until the end of the year to read your comics. I guess my Surface 3 is about 50% useless now.

Death Vigil hasn't officially ended. It all depends on the trade sales.
Where are you ordering from?

Valiant To Create A New Female Icon For 2016
Good. My money's on Livewire or Roku. Either one would be amazing. More importantly, let's see if they can secure the female talent for it, which if their unwillingness to continue Dr Mirage without Jen Van Meter is any indication, they probably wouldn't even announce a female-led series without one.
Hmm I'll buy one to throw in my shelf, even though I just bought digital.

Comixology is shutting down their app on Windows. Their excuse was that they are changing their UI on the site and somehow that means they have to get rid of the Windows app when really they probably looked at the numbers and noticed not a lot of people bothered with it so yeah. Shame since the comics look real good on a Surface tablet. iPad Pro sure looks nice now.

Are the IDW Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic books age appropriate for a 7-9 year old? I wanted to read them, I thought it'd be nice for my nephew to read along with me, so that we could discuss the story when we're through.
I was mostly thinking about getting them in the collected volumes.

I seen that and was very confused at first. Someone has some explaining to do.

wait what?!?
I thought your real name was Messi for awhile .......i am not familiar with Foreign Football.

I should have changed my name when I had the chance.
They must have crazy shipping costs, even at $8 an issue it'd be under $100 for a year

Never been a bit Bond fan. I mean, I'll watch the occasional Bond movie, and I'll usually enjoy it, but I don't actively seek out Bond films. Though I've seen my fair share.
Not unless those kids are okay being exposed to a lot of straight murder.

For a while, I was playing nothing but PSN games. I play what looks interesting, whether it's a retail release or not. PS+ has more than paid for itself in the year I've had it.
PS+ is the equivalent of me renting random Netflix horror movies, always gives me something to play even though i never really like any of it. Rocket League has provided a lot of hours of gaming with my one human friend but i'm so bad at it it depletes my enjoyment.
Messi.....Rockets....don't lose hope.

I liked Rocket League for a while, but the physics are too fucking wonky for it to be a serious competitive game.

Fuck football , fuck life , fuck it all.
When you get outclassed by Aspas there's something wrong.
Can't disagree. Entire back line has much to answer for and Ter Stegen isn't filling me with any kind of confidence. He looks terrified out there. The forwards created chances in the second half and just needed to take them so I am not worried about that.
