20 books that DC will drip feed to you over 50 years, charging you $125 for each.
Now you can have an Absolute Doom Patrol or Absolute Usagi Yojimbo or Absolute Thor, and pay just $1 an issue (if you wait for a CMX sale).
[I am conveniently ignoring the $4999 the iPad Pro will cost, of course]
I am in your camp though. I don't see my self moving to digital anytime soon but this is absolutely a great option for digital comic readers.
Fake Edit: 32GB for $799. $99 more for stylus. $160 more for keyboard.
Of? Or are we just going to vaguely hint?

Haha I mentioned my silly idea of a super sized tablet for comics and now it's here. I think I'll wait until next year. I like to get the second editions of their products. And I'm happy with my air 2

Phantom Pain sure does give Ubisoft Game: The Game a run for its money on the grindy collectables regard.
Next Splinter Cell will prolly straight lift this approach to stealth games, tho. "whaddayamean we dont even have to bother developing a city and can just dump the player in the middle of a freaking desert for 40 hours?"

Been so distracted lately with way too much shit in my life, so I haven't really had time to read or post in the thread or read any comics.
I miss you guys.
I've also been watching a bunch of Mr. Robot. Just a couple more episodes til I'm done with the first season. It's really good.

I don't like the rose gold finish for the new iphone. Weird.

Yeah, most of it having to do with my job. Mainly my anxiety has been crazy lately. Mental health in general right now is pretty awful.
Oh, and I was also busy all weekend because my friend's wedding (yes, THAT friend) happened. Lol
Anyways, good luck on your interview! I wish you the best.
Shit, that's out already? o.o

Err...look, based on what I see there it's safe to say that she's not perfect, but I see nothing there that does anything to indicate she's some awful person on queer issues. Hell, with only the context given in the link I'd say that the second link comes off worse for the tumblr page. Of those three links and the links from the first link (link link link link) I'd say that the "lady parts" thing and the fat shaming are problematic whereas the complaints about the bisexual comic are kind of utterly bizarre and overdone. And honestly, if those are the worst examples in regards to her actions then she comes across to me as someone that needs to do some moderate reevaluating of some of her thinking but who is otherwise in a pretty decent place.
I'll admit that some of this reaction is because I've gotten sick and tired of all the factionalism and infighting within social justice (queer and otherwise) movements over minor perceived imperfections (as opposed to cases where people really do have major issues) that result in preventing cohesion and action.
There's definitely a certain segment of folk that are a little.... tightly wound.

Was poking around the Worf Effect page on TvTropes 'cause of that OT thread, and thought you guys might find this funny:

What video? The lady yelling at restaurant people or another video?
Her comments weren't offensive to me (even though I'm the target she was aiming at). But her "comedy" was atrocious. She tried waaaaaay too hard and the jumpcuts were all over the place. I lasted a minute.
Her comments are awful though.

Now if only we had more people who were brand-new to comics entirely pop-up here we'd be golden.
It was super good. One of my favorite books.

We get them all the time. Problem is that nine times outta ten their posts start with "so, i was thinking of reading (millar's) Civil War..."

At least it's not Age of Ultron, although new readers may not be able to handle the sheer excitement of Captain America sitting down and then slowly standing up.
assume the omnibus position

Bendis' Uncanny X-Men continues to be enjoyable with volume 2, "Broken." My only issue is that I wish we'd get more insight into what it means exactly that their powers are broken. Like, I get that they don't have control, but...I dunno, feels too vague to me, for some reason. Can't put my finger on it.
That being said, the art and the action is good. The team dynamic is good, though I'm getting tired of Goldballs' attitude. It seems like he'll improve with his newly found resolve, though. And finally WHY WON'T SHIELD JUST SAY THEY DIDN'T SEND THE SENTINELS!?
Like damn Maria, I know you're stubborn but shit there is a point...Like, what is Dazzler supposed to accomplish? Just a very stupid move on her part, I feel.
Anyways I'm very behind of course, so talking about this as if it's ongoing isn't really relevant anymore, but alas it is what it is.

Best thing about Secret Wars is that now we can redirect them to the good versions of those events.
"bu bu bu this says Age of Ultron vs Zombies..."
*yerp, that's the one. Have fun*

That's a good point. Although, everyone should be allowed to make that first mistake. I tried getting back into comics years ago and thought a good story to pick up was Ultimatum.
Naturally I make much better decisions now.
The only thing good about that event is the scumbag tactics.
Beyond that it is not only convoluted, but also boring as hell.

Will Apple now claim to have invented the omnibus position? Someone tell Kipp to lawyer up.
I....never thought of it that way. Genius!
Was Age of Ultron vs. Zombies actually good? It was on my longlist of Secret Wars books, but didn't make the cut.
Also, the first comic I read after my break was Siege, but that's because I quit after Secret Invasion and I just wanted to see Osborn and his Dark Avengers get the shit beat out of them.
I've never liked her (she's obnoxious as hell) but it's nice to see some examples.
though I do think their reactions verging on over the top in that classic tumblr-ey fashion
I went from ipad 3 to ipad air 2 and i don't wanna go back to heavier tablets. My tiny comic reading arms....
