Nailed it
(That issue was so weird. Re reading that series is REALLY rewarding. Read that first trade a couple of times. I was lost the first time through for sure !)

Spurrier is king shit. So on point.
Whazaa..? A series featuring a curvy superhero chick? You have my attention, Valiant.

I haven't read any comics in like 3 months.
Time to get back into it. I guess.

It takes DC 2 months to drop the price of books by a dollar on Comixology. Grayson is a 3.99 book regularly.

Did it go up to $3.99 after Convergence though? The first eight issues are $1.99 after the price drop on Comixology. The issues following Convergence are $2.99 and $3.99. That's what confused me.

Thank you! I normally wait for DC's price drop, but I'm tempted to grab #44 today.
I believe those first 8 were on sale

No problem. Replied again w/moar context. It's definetley Johns in full on event mode but...things are actually happening

Cool, cool. It's not a big deal, I mean, the series is quality. I'd just as happily pay $2.99 as I would $1.99. I was just curious.

Before King was just the CIA consultant/cowriter on Grayson, he wrote a superhero novel called "A Once Crowded Sky." If you like his comic book stuff, highly recommend the book.

I almost forgot that king shit is a positive saying and i almost threw blows
cuz The Spire is good shit

I'm going to look into this. Thanks for the recommendation.
Seems intentional.

Haha. It sure is. I looked at his Comic Vine page just now and I love that this is his bio:
That is perfect

True, but unrelated.
Looking forward to that one.

He's not the first. There are plenty of novelists that are former CIA. I imagine it gives you a good foundation for writing spy fiction.

Yeah It is,, I remember when it first came out it took an issue or two to really comprehend it,, mainly visually/art imo
I kinda spaced it out tho and haven't been pulling it since this second arc started.. .but will at least get the tbp
I have enjoyed the second arc just as much as the first. Can't wait for the next issue.

Decent haul this week:
-Superman #44
-Grayson Annual #2
-Batman Annual #4
-Justice League #44
And Robin, son of Batman #4 which I apparently missed last week, somehow.

...What price range are we talking? Because I may be interested in that...

And wow, 4 pages in and Robin, Son of Batman is delivering in spades. Powerful stuff.

Ugh I was going to wait for the Kanan trade to come out but man digital is just too convenient, snagged issues 3 - 6 and issue 9 of Darth Vader because I forgot that came out.
I think I'm going to go all digital for real this time and only buy OHC for things I really like. Shattered Empire #4 will be the last physical single issue I own.

He's a damn good artist. It's the juxtaposition of the painting and the rest of the scene that gets me, though.
Finished reading it, it's a damn good issue. The book's finally found its voice, and at this point I'd heartily recommend it to anybody here.
Glad to hear it found some solid footing. It was a very shaky start imo.

Got my mitts on Rucka's Felon.
the first 3 issues are pretty ok. Fourth is whatever, completely skippable. Kinda makes sense that he dropped it after that.
No idea why it apparently has a cult following. Maybe because it was bold for 2002?

Yeah, no argument here. Adding Nobody's daughter to the cast helped a ton.
