Can someone tell me if Anna Maria survived into the new universe?

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

I keep forgetting to put on my alarm to go to work and end up coming in an hour late lol thank god my boss is cool.

They just added a whole bunch of Dark Horse singles on CMX.

!!!!

Ok some are HD. This should be fun.

What's HD now?

Can't say I'm all that interested in back up stories. I might give it a go though.

So are the X-Books out, too?
Can we lay the Planet X thing ad acta?

Single page? 1920 x whatever the page height to keep proportion. Can't recall.

There are some cray 4k releases, but those are mad rare.

I never thought I'd say this, but I'm in freakin' love with the Spidermobile

It might be a $3.99 weekly, but fwiw, I think that Batman & Robin Eternal #1 was worth the money. Some fun batfamily moments, funny introduction subtitles (like [not really plot spoilers but funny moments]

Spoiler

Jason Todd: AKA Red Hood. Batman's Second Partner. Died on the job. Got better," and "Tim Drake. Batman's 3rd partner. 142 IQ. Bit of a showoff."

) Art is great, but, well, it's a weekly, so they'll be rotating in artists. It didn't really elevate the issue, but it did nothing to hamper it, and it was even pretty impressive in parts; the color especially was, while conventional, very atmospheric. You're not getting anything like Zero Year's bright hues, but Gotham at night looks gorgeous.

Highlights include:

-The three former Robins working together to take some fool down
-Dick Grayson getting his ass kicked by

Spoiler

Cassandra Cain

-And a very intriguing mystery. There's a moment at the end that some people might feel is going a little hard for the shock value, but hell, it's got me interested enough that I'm willing to look past that.

Will definitely be sticking with it, budget permitting. Messi's right that at 3.99 a week, this one's gonna end up being costly, but hell, this is comics. What isn't?

Right? Who greenlit this? Is anyone clamoring for a Shane Davis created book?

 

[Poodlestrike]

Action Comics #45 continues the "Action Comics is consistently great" trend the previous 4 issues set up by virtue of being pretty great. Supes is a good guy in a tough situation that merges sci-fi threats with very mundane issues. On the one hand, you've got Wrath, possibly at the center of some vast anti-Superman conspiracy. On the other, there's... well, wrath, with a lower case w. Superman is angry because he feels powerless and alone, and the general public is angry either because they feel betrayed by the revelation that Superman has been hiding amongst them, or because they feel that the first group is treating Superman unfairly. And then there's just the everyday issues people face that keep blowing up. It's a whole thing.

I loved it. I'm already fond of the cast and I'm hooked on the mystery. Not sure how much was known about this book but I didn't have anything going in and it surprised me a few times.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Batman and Robin Eternal is apparently $2.99 next week, so I guess it was first issue tax

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Gonna pick up that new Donny Cates joint, Colder. Heard good things and I love Cates.

Thank you, Dark Horse

So is the new ASM post Secret Wars but the chronology got messed up because they extended Secret Wars itself?

8 months later, but we get it 8 months before Secret Wars ends.

Time travel is crazy.

Good to hear, that's 51 bucks in my pocket

 

[Messi]

I believe this is only 6 months not 12

 

[E the Shaggy]

With every book being like a standard $5 (seriously what the fuck even?), just get Marvel Unlimited which is a little bit more a month with the entire Marvel catalog on there.

LOL at the last page of ASM. It was only a matter of time.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

I believe this is only 6 months not 12

Yeah and, $79, not $51.

 

[Poodlestrike]

...

23 bucks, then!

Yeah and, $79, not $51.

Price was (I thought) 4 dollars a week, now 3 dollars a week, difference is weeks * 4-3, so if it was a 1 year weekly it'd be 51 dollars less at 3 then at 4.

out of todays marvel comics:

$4: 17
$5: 3
$6: 3

I'm a sucker. My pull list is already pretty small, tho, since I'm basically just reading DC and Archie, so it's not such a big deal.
