You might want to expand on this because how the hell is anyone meant to know what you are talking about lol
spoilers work better when you give people context so they know whether or not to click

Bloodshot Reborn #7
Or the Strange Case Where Lemires Writing is as Amazing As The Art.
This is Lemires best work to date, and it just seemingly gets better with each issue. It gives what I initially thought was just a stock character character for Valiant, Bloodshot, such an incredible amount of life and realism. Its absolutely brutal and hauntingly beautiful, and it just keeps capitalizing on these two characteristics. Butch Guice has left absolutely nothing on the table; dude is working for that legendary status every month.
BUT, even more bananas is where Lemire is taking this story in issue #10.
Valiants Hero Bloodshot Gets Reborn in a Mad Max-esque, Monster Truck-Filled Apocalypse
And Ive saved my self-ascribed one image per post quota for this incredible piece by Lewis LaRosa of Ninjak post-timeskip, because its dope as fuck and my hype levels are through the roof.

So many covers for DKIII. This one is by Joshua Middleton.

Batman looks like he belongs in The Big Book of British Smiles.
Either that or he's a very messy eater. You'd have thought Alfred would have taught him table manners.

How about he stops drawing covers and gets back to drawing Afterlife with Archie?
Sorry
Holy crap. I'm reading Batman Death of the Family right now. About 3/4ths in. This is brutal.
Yes. I loved that story,

I think the delays are officially as bad as Sabrina delays right now.

Aren't Afterlife's delays worse? At least we've gotten 3 issues of Sabrina this year

I haven't kept track, but I think the delay between #1 and #2 was something like 7 months.
I wish we'd get more, but greatness can't be rushed. I learnt that lesson with Planetary and Astonishing X-Men a long while back, same thing with Hawkeye this year.

There is the the great comics I have read today and then there is Omega Men #5 which transcends great comics to being and instant classic.

There have been so many of you in this thread recommending this. I hope there is a trade out soon.

I will never be able to fathom the amount of torture people who waited on Planetary had to have felt.
I saw some pages from issue 2 and so much hype
Honestly my interest is super piqued on what the second book is going to be about if that is actually a real thing and not just Bendis teasing.

#6 was my favourite, it got weird as fuck.
Awesome. He rest has been fantastic.
I seen the cover for vol 2 on Amazon and I really wish I didn't. I hope that cover and title isn't a spoiler.

Naw that's the name of the arc. It's been known.
Well that's good but I do not like what it implies.

the shit with batman shooting someone? that better be misleading or something
You think that's bad? Try thinking about the dudes who have been waiting for Gaiman to return to Miracleman.
You're going to be waiting a long time, the TPB was resolicited from a volume 1 to come out this winter to a complete collection to come out next August or so.

You may laugh, but that Squirt thing is actually pretty fucking dark and it's take a ridiculous new turn in the latest issue.
Just finished it. Incredible.

Just read Midnighter. Is was solid. It was entertaining. Just missing something for me to call it great. Can't put my finger on it just yet.

Misleading, mind control, or some real character-changing shit.
They're definitely setting this up to be the reason for Bruce's return to the cowl. Unwinnable scenario unless they find out the knowledge tucked in his head forces the Batfamily to restore Bruce's memories.

His art was so nice, I would have gladly bought just for that.

Damn. With DC un-cancelling it back to 12 issues, I had hoped we would get one of their regular 6 issue trades soon.

It gets worse? It was already super dark and ridiculous through the end of the first trade as it was. :x

I don't know how I missed this, but it's 100% true.
Everyone here should be buying Omega Men, because it is absolutely top shelf comics.
Nothing else I read in any given month measures up, except maybe Martian Manhunter.
I hope you enjoy fun and whimsy.

Pete Carroll Owns Me
I've never read a Spider-Man book. Well maybe one cross-over issue with X-Force back in the day but that's about it. He just doesn't interest me as a character. The movies certainly haven't helped their cause at all.

How are people even questioning whether or not that's a fake out?
It doesn't help that Peter is boring as shit.

Because hey, who the fuck knows anymore? This is the DCYou! Batman's a robot, Bruce Wayne is an amnesiac, Superman is an SJW. Shits getting real!
Because it's more fun to let yourself get carried away by the possibilities than it is to stop and think about it.
Such a turrible book. And the art was awful, too.

Seeing $6 marvel books reconfirmed my decision to go with the 6 month delay and MU reading. That's 6 issues from CMX sales!
Starting Gotham Academy Vol. 1.
Edit: Oh wow, amazing art.
Karl Kershl da god.
Such a wonderful book.
