even if when i like it i then ask dcbs to add 2 and 3 to my order? It's like a late pre-order, the issues still won't be out by then.

Lumberjanes is so good. I should pick up some more.
Oh ok. I didn't realize that.

This Lumberjanes talk inspired me to look up what my first print of the first issue is worth. eBay has one listed at $30. Sweet. Too bad I never read it, discovered that it was awesome, and bought more. Oh well, I' m glad I snagged the first issue, at least.

Okay, this is just too cute to not share... Adam Warren has been doodling sketches of Empowered characters in the "Peches Mignons" style of French comic artist Arthur de Pins. And the results are pretty adorable, if I do say so myself.
P.S. -- don't search Arthur de Pins while at work unless your workplace is cool; he does risque/sexual and nudes.

Yes, they are super adorable.
P.S. I am definitely searching Arthur de Pins art.

DC Cover Girls Power Girl and the next Art of War Wonder Woman are both up at DCBS now.
Debating what to buy, if any.
There's something about the head on that PG I don't like.

Do you see what I'm saying about the PG statue? It's like they sculpted her head too chubby for that hairstyle.

Man, having this shitty professor this semester has sapped my will to do anything, even when I actually have time to relax.

Well, at least you won't have to subject yourself to reading Valiant comics.

Wow, that is a shitty professor. Usually when I get someone really terrible I just stop showing up for lectures and just take the tests.
BTW, some kind soul uploaded 4 of the tracks from the Halo 5 soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMooYwwQBdoPcIAg7S4BhSXMyX6mA0fXX

Batgirl #20:

Man. I just read Gotham Adventures #1 and I loved it so much. Wasn't expecting to. I just wanted to read something small after finishing Batgirl of Burnside before starting something else. I looked on Amazon and IST for collected editions and there doesn't seem to be any
I would and still might buy some more issues on Comixology, but the rest of the issues seem to be 22 pages instead of the 39 pages that the first issue had. Oh well, it was good enough to buy some more.

Read some Saga today. Vol 3. I like it, but I don't love it. However, I understand why people love it.
I know <3
I'm at the point where it would probably be better to skip, but it's a class of 13 and he knows who I am. It's bad enough that the dude gives us a handful of days for tough as shit homework that takes 8 of us to understand, but to top it off, the guy gets mad when the class average on the first exam is 37 (of the people I spoke to, 9 of us got 30 or below) or when we ask him questions about things we don't understand.
those Halo 5 tracks are fiyaaaaaah

Finished up the issues of Cass Batgirl that I picked up on sale (1-25)
Really good run so far. It's cool to see her grow so much over the course of these issues. Love her relationship with Bruce, Babs, and Steph especially. Her rivalry with Shiva is great too. Will definitely grab more issues.

Okay, I laughed.
It's great comics, with Morrison and pals at the top of their game (except for Jim Lee). You'll enjoy it regardless, but it's the endgame of ideas he has planted in the DCU since at least his Animal Man run, and being cognizant of that context gives everything an even greater meaning.
it was definitely a step up from the Scream MTV series that i abandoned after three episodes but still not something that i think will keep me watching. Scream Queens seemed like it was trying too hard to show how smart/snappy it is without actually having the plotting to back it up, it had some enjoyable moments but seemed to drag.
That's like every Ryan Murphy show ever. I still need to watch it though looks kinda fun.
Strangely enough I watched the first two Scream episodes earlier, didn't think it was that bad actually. No idea how they'll stretch it out over 10 episodes but I'm vaguely interested in finding out. Guess I have a soft spot for dumb slasher stuff.

Speaking of Ryan Murphy, you guys ever seen Nip/Tuck?
That's by default his best show just because of how fucking bananas it was.

I think it goes off the rails pretty hard. I dig American Horror Story though.

That's why I love it though. It's the best kind of bad.
I would also argue it was never on the rails to begin with. I don't remember what all happened in S1, but S2 was bonkers.
That show went places, like seriously.
I watched the first look for the new show and it looks like a big step up from Freakshow. Lady Gaga's character seems really interesting in that crazy hot psycho way, kinda like Kata Mara's character is Murder House.

That's the reason I've checked out all of his stuff since then. That show was fucking berserk - and it won Best Drama!

you know what's a good show? Last Man on Earth
The commercials looked funny, but I never went and found out when it was on.
Sundays at 9:30pm, embrace the cringe.
Not a fan of that head at all. I wouldn't buy it.

I opted to get the more show-accurate and less expensive Wonder Woman statue.
I'm doing ok now. I think.
A beautiful thing, an amazingly heartbreaking thing.
