everyone is reading comi-ahahhahahahahahahahahhaahahahha

I just finished the last issue of 1602: Witch Hunter Angela. One of the few tie-ins that held up from beginning to end. Loved the art, loved the story and the dialogue. Just a great little mini.

It's not comic reading time yet. That comes later at work.

I've got Southern Bastards, Black Science, and Rasputin in the rotation tonight.

I love the Universe Marvel 1602 is set in, but the book is awfull to read.

Respectfully disagree. I thought it was tied with Captain Marvel for the best tie in of Secret Wars.

 

[Owzers]

the black acrylic marker i picked up to touch up my steelbook was both not the right shade of black AND permanent and not acrylic. Sooooooooooooooo into the fire it goes.

The only rational thing to do is try to paint over the marker.

Been reading other stuff and decided to continue on with Hellboy.

Four issues into Darkness Calls and it is just incredible. Hellboy is on just another level from everything else.

Oh, okay. Well I can give you a pass on that one. You should check out the new book, though. The writing is much more consistent with the theme.

 

[SpiderJerusalem]

When you would have to recommend three essential Dr. Strange books that are aviable via Comixology or Physical... Which would you take?

I dont know if they're on there but I only liked him in his book from the 80s

everyone is reading comi-ahahhahahahahahahahahhaahahahha

I'm about to do it!

 

[Kipp]

oh i might be interested

i also have some trades and collections i need to sell or trade since i have extras

i got extraneous library editions 1-3 of hellboy if anybody is interested

I'd love to buy Hellboy Library Edition vol 3 off you if you're up for it.

 

[whatsinaname]

I'll have to kind of agree with you there. While I wouldn't say it was awful, the actual story was a bit of a chore and didn't really match up to the characters designs that looked fairly interesting.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Already preordered

Man, the design is wonderful. I went nuts when I finally recognized

Spoiler

Captain America and Magneto

Maybe the problem is that I am stupid from the flu, but its really hard to read

 

[PsychBat!]

Infinity Gauntlet is clearly the best tie-in.

i <3 you ed

who is that female nova?

wow that worked, i think that worked :O how is this a thing that worked?

 

[WadiumArcadium]

who is that female nova?

She's a new character I think. I still haven't read #4 but it's really great.

Infinity Gauntlet is clearly the best tie-in.

It's awesome but I think I prefer Thors. Might change my mind when I've read them in trade.

 

[Hagi]

she didn't say henshin what a crap book

 

[PsychBat!]

It's awesome but I think I prefer Thors. Might change my mind when I've read them in trade.

Thors has been delayed too many times for me to notice that book anymore. I think it's okay so far, it's not within my top fav SW tie-ins.

 

[SpiderJerusalem]

This Shutter comic seems cool /buysmore

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

I'm at the airport with a tablet full of comics, and instead I'm in here posting about how I'm not reading them. I think I've reached my final form.

 

[tim1138]

I read like 600 pages of comics over the weekend

 

[TetraxShards]

You'll be ok brother. We all use our real name. Nobody has been kidnaped yet. It actually helps make it a bit more personal.

This is still so strange to me.

Essentially. We all have tattoos of anime girls.

No we don't.

 

[WadiumArcadium]

Yeah, the delays are a bit irritating.

How does this Hangouts thing work? Can I use it through the Hangouts app on android?

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Holy shit I was not expecting the ending to Hellboy Wild Hunt #1

 

[Hagi]

I assume so it's just a google thing.

damn sorry kippster i got another request for vol 3 immediately after posting that haha

vol 3 is in high demand! i do have quite a few others ill post up later today you might be interested in.

 

[Hagi]

I read the first volume of Outcast because of the image sale and it was alright. Not sure if it's something I want to keep reading. The art was nice but the story didn't really grab me.

 

[Kipp]

I think today is probably a good day to finally start reading my Morrison Batman Absolute Editions.

damn sorry kippster i got another request for vol 3 immediately after posting that haha

vol 3 is in high demand! i do have quite a few others ill post up later today you might be interested in.

No worries! I haven't even finished volume 2 yet, so it's all good.

 

[Zombine]

How does this Hangouts thing work? Can I use it through the Hangouts app on android?

Yes

RIP del Toro's Dark Universe.

[Spike Spiegel]

Today I finally read the copy of Scarlet Couture #1 that's been sitting in my backlog, and I can confidently say that Des Taylor is the kind of writer that shouldn't.

Also, was NYCC a huge bust for announcements? Nothing caught my eye.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Oh god, my god

 

[Owzers]

Oh god, my god

remember when you said your posts were terrible?

That's crazy talk. What kind of comic gaffer reads comics?

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Ok, I take everything back, 1602 just went bonkers.
Holy shit.

 

[Owzers]

now it's time for me to make a totally not terrible post:

Olivia Wilde will be on Seth Meyers' Late Show tonight.

Who? Is that some up-and-comer we'll be seeing a lot of?

 

[Boogiepop]

Oh, so I got caught up in being angry with Amazon and then happy yet confused with their customer service, but I actually did read some stuff! I finished the first Kabuki library edition, which was a pretty crazy read. The first "half" (which was really most of the book) was a kind of crazy build where I was like "oh man this may not actually be for me" at the start to actually really liking it at the end. Had some great stuff going for it, but also some definite roughness in places. And then the "Dreams" thing just goes and is this insane artsy thing which honestly wasn't a huge bit of plot but was just a crazy, beautiful thing to look at (a good bit of that was present in the first part which did some cool things as well, but the color and the insanity of it all elevates it to a whole other level). I'll definitely be interested to see where it goes.

And then I read the first "book" in BPRD Plague of Frogs volume 2 and... yeah, I still very much like the whole Mignolaverse from what I've experienced so far.

Awesome, thanks for the heads up.

 

[tim1138]

I guess I'll leave then

 

[SpiderJerusalem]

You blockhead!

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Been reading too.

Almost done with the fifth Hellboy Library Edition which I started today and I read Batgirl: Destruction's Daughter, Batgirl 53, and Paper Girls over the past few days. Also started Heavy Liquid last night.

Gotta catch up on my singles but it's something at least.
