A lot of the longevity I'm going to get from MGS5 is from retrying the same op over until I can do it sneaky lol

I am totally the same. Love the openness.
The structure's really close to PW, so you're better off pushing forward, taking what you can with, then coming back to those earlier missions with hella upgraded weapons.

Oh, yeah, I found that out in the first mission.
I came back to it, tried to find some commander, interrogated a guy, and I'm like "what the fuck do you mean I can't speak Russian!?"

Light week for me, Silk is the only ongoing I follow that comes out tomorrow. Guess I'll grab the next few issues of Omega Men.
Also manga but not comics, but I'll probably get Ninja Slayer Kills too.
edit: Oh yeah, I'll try Lady Killer too.

Everyone buy Lady Killer Vol 1 tomorrow please.

Damn work is DEAD tonight and I didn't load enough Saga or East of West onto my tablet for such a slow night. Guess I'll get a few extra issues of Fatale in. Things could be worse I suppose.

Still have enough money for comics, tho!

Really surprised there isn't a Stargirl ongoing, she seems like the perfect character for DCYou. I suppose Babs is in kind of a similar role, but Stargirl would have been more true to character. How has justice league united been?
What's a good website that keeps track of reprints? There's some old tp's I always want but they're never in stock. I was looking at JSA Golden Age, but chances of it being reprint seem slim unless something else promoting it comes out.

I use stealth until I get spotted. Then Rambo mode engages. I ain't about those retries.

ACCOMPLISH THE MISSION AT ALL COSTS.
my zombie movie Extinction is disappointing me so i am now telling you this. "i'm going to go out and investigate, lock the door behind me." *waits" *other guy does the same thing to look for that guy. *waits* another guy goes out after because that guy had the guns and he needs it. Ahhhhhhhh.

Maybe because there is less that needs to be redrawn/rewritten?

Judging from what I've heard so far, MGSV looks to be turning out as dumb as I expected. Oh well, more comic time for me!
Huh?

MGS V hype matched! Loving it so far. My decision to take off work tomorrow and play MGS all day seems to be the correct choice
Also love seeing my friends list full of people playing MGS V

I have never read any of the Valiant comic series so is it worth it for me to get the Groupees: Valiant Comic Bundle #1? If yes in which order do I read them?
LaunchpadMcQ
Banned
Thanks, now I will get the bundle. All the comics in the bundle are offered in two formats PDF and .cbz, what's .cbz format?
LaunchpadMcQ
Banned
.cbz is similar to .cbr. It'll run on whatever comic reader you have.
I only have Marvel Unlimited, so can you tell me what's the best comic reader app?
Also I noticed that the Valiant comics recommended reading list doesn't include the following comics from the bundle: [Quantum & Woody, Archer & Armstrong, Ninjak, The Valiant, Punk Mambo, Shadowman, Eternal Warrior, Doctor Mirage, Rai, The Delinquents, Divinity, IMPERIUM], so where in the recommended order do they go into?

ComicRack works. There are quite a few of them floating around.
https://m.reddit.com/r/comicbooks/comments/2h5r8s/drafting_a_valiant_tpbs_reading_order_need_second/
That covers the rest. Keep in mind, the reading order is very loose. You can pick up one book and just burn through that if you're really digging it. Obvious exceptions are Armor Hunters and stuff like Imperium that's a pseudo-sequel to Harbinger. They try to make new arcs and books as accessible as possible, so although you gain more by reading everything, it's not entirely necessary.
Thank you so much.

What's the difference between Rai and Bloodshot? Why do they have a Japanese flag motif?

The difference is that neither of them are Ivar, Timewalker, a book that everyone should be reading.

So, FINALLY got around to watching Mad Max (twice in as many days!) and loved it to pieces. Fantastic movie. The bizarre wasteland culture just feels so well realized, the special lingo (shiny and chrome!) especially. I sort of get the complaints regarding Max being a sidekick, but I think they're misplaced; he's an important character as well, just less... vocal than Furiosa. I'd call him a Deuteragonist or Supporting Protagonist. Probably the latter, since Furiosa arguably has more of a role in dictating the direction of the plot, and Max fits the "conventional protagonist" part of the bill nicely.
Those aren't in the Groupees: Valiant Comics Bundle #1, so can you give me a description (with images) of who they are?

Played Ground Zeroes and freed every prisoner, played all missions on both normal and hard, and got every single cassette tape. Didn't 100% it and don't plan to but other than that I'm ready for TPP.
You say that like it's a bad thing. I want this final game to be an acid trip that I can try to make sense of it all when it's all said and done. Still sad about hearing some cut story parts though especially a super important one.

I'm glad a guy was barely the protagonist. It's about time. It made it such a better movie, a) because Furiosa is the absolute best ever and b) it gave Hardy so much more amazing fun subtle stuff to do.

I just keep an eye on instocktrades' new releases on Tuesdays. DC and Marvel also put pdfs every few months that contain a list of upcoming trades/hardcovers/omnibuses. They are usually linked in this thread and covered in most comic blogs/websites.
