CMX just put up a Flash and Green Arrow sale too. Smart.

And they're trades too, not single issues. Thanks DC.

You could pick up the Nu52 runs of both pretty bloody cheap.

Saga #27-30

duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude

Yes. :/

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Top Shelf CMX sale, including Bacchus.

Bacchus looks so good, gonna need to cop that.

Anyone have an opinion on March? I've heard of it, but not seen what people think of it.

 

[my name is ed]

Well, I read The Sculptor in 2 days.... I thought it was amazing. I don't think a book has gotten so much emotion from me as this one did.
Reallllyyyy good read

No one knows as much about comics as Scott McCloud. He came to my LCS for a Q and A and was very interesting. The reason he did the book in one color was because he sucks at coloring haha

I think March got a lot of praise from critics so it's probably good

Launchbox did saga upset you?

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Yes. :/

It wasn't as bad as I expected, but there was a point where I turned the page like :l -> :OOOO -> ((

What a Rollercoaster though. I love it now.

What about Alan Moore's From Hell?

 

[Owzers]

still no release date for the Batwoman statue, but that's okay because i'm patient. Thinking about getting the second edition of the black and white harley statue even though it's grey-ish.

 

[Coriolanus]

What about Alan Moore's From Hell?

Read the preview on Amazon. It's downhill from there.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Read the preview on Amazon. It's downhill from there.

But it has good reviews on amazon. Isn't that the litmus test for all comic books?

lol no it's not
it's from hell
it's a friggin masterpiece

 

[Owzers]

lol no it's not

movie version is better.

 

[Coriolanus]

From Hell sits in that weird place where i can see that it is technically good, but simply couldn't enjoy the story. At all.

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Ok, I'm willing to take a $5 risk on From Hell.

Bacchus, tho, is as good as everyone says it is, yes?

Comic Blitz, a new app billed as a Netflix for comics, launched today!

They have Valiant!

But the important bit is if they have HD comics. Is that asking for too much? Lol

EDIT: only available on Apple and can't sign in to website. We're off to a great start.

It sure would be helpful if they gave you some sort of idea what was available besides a list of publishers, a scrolling display listing 5 books, and some thumbnails on the app mock-up. Sure, there's a free trial but that's a lot of effort to just check things out.

Also, I skimmed their ToS and this jumped out at me:

Your ComicBlitz membership may start with a free trial. The free trial period of your membership lasts for one week, or as otherwise specified during sign-up. Free trials may not be combined with any other offers. Free trials are for new and certain former members only. Netflix reserves the right, in its absolute discretion, to determine your free trial eligibility.

So yes, they 100% C&Ped the Netflix Terms of Use and changed most instances of Netflix to ComicBliz.

Had to at least see how they read, or what all was actually in their catalog.

They have my credit card lol

If this was 2012 (and I had an iDevice), the Red 5 mention would get me in at least on a trial just to read Robo.

Now that that's no longer necessary...

There is a new Guardians book?

 

[Figboy79]

Ok, I'm willing to take a $5 risk on From Hell.

Bacchus, tho, is as good as everyone says it is, yes?

I have the physical book on my shelf. It's a good book, but a dense read. I'm surprised he didn't just write a novel instead, because the art is usually drowned out by huge chunks of dialogue. I'm fascinated by the Jack the Ripper killings, so I found the comic to be very intriguing and an in depth read. I'm not sure how accurate the research was going into it, but it was very compelling. It's like an illustrated case file.

 

[BrokenFiction]

Nowhere good, I can assure you of that. If you haven't read the Blackman/Williams III stuff, do that, then stop.

Has anyone read Head Lopper #1 ?

It looks pretty interesting, a lot of the reviews I find for #1 that just came out in September have good things to say about it.
Got my curiosity, think ima order #1 & #2 on dcbs,

Head Lopper #1 was great, reminds me a bit of Samurai Jack. You're getting a whole lot of comic for the cover price, too.
