Meh. I would be annoyed, but then I seen what my pull-list is like after adding Super Sons, JLA, and Batwoman too it. I am good for the time being.
It's interesting to hear, but also so vague. Does that make them part of the second wave along with Batwoman and Supersons, or mean that they're further off than that.
Personally, I'm looking forward to JSA the most of those three, but Shazam could be cool with the right team. I wonder if there's any chance they try to get Jeff Smith for it?
With Legion it's hard to think of anyone that would really make it work well. Peter Tomasi's run on GLC, I think, could serve as a good template for it in terms of having some core characters, but keeping them surrounded by an ever growing roster of interesting supporting characters. Other than Tomasi, who is likely too busy, I'm not sure who would be good at pulling that off. As much as I've liked Giffen over the years I'm not sure he's still a good choice for something like that.

Honestly if it's not with top talent then I'm fine shelving it until it's there. After seeing other books just wasting away like GL

Gla d you enjoyed it, really fantastic series. I don't entirely disagree about the ending but I liked that it wasn't what you thought the end would be when you started volume 1 or necessarily when you were close to the end. It very much is a book for the characters and the journey though, and I find endings like that a tough pill to swallow too, especially because that's sometimes how things really are.
Ex Machina is pretty great too by the way, if you're looking for more from him.
He asked me to come back tomorrow in that email

Just finished it... Yeah, there is no way I am waiting until the next Deluxe Edition comes out.I am loving Deadly Class so much. I'm about 3/4 of the way through the Deluxe Edition and don't know what I'll do when I'm done. Ideally I would make myself wait until the next Deluxe Edition comes out in like... 2 years? But I know I'm going to want to continue the story
That ending!!!!
Legion is maybe the hardest thing to write in DC's roster. There's so much a hypothetical Legion #1 needs to do while also being a great fucking comic that I totally understand why DiDio and pals would take their time to find the right people to put on it.

The next logical thing to do is read Manifest Destiny.

Was there a legion Hickman rumour awhile back or was that just wishful thinking I'm remembering?
People were hoping, but that likely won't amount to anything, unfortunately. Would definitely be cool!
Are we talking about Supreme or Witch?

I think I have pretty much cracked the code on what Marvel is planning to do for for the next year or so based on the panels we got this weekend, so while we didn't get concrete news about the "House Divided" thing this is a decent enough substitute. I'm still kinda disappointed we didn't get any Spidey news, but I guess they want to focus on CC and we'll get info in the next few months via solicitations.
DC and Marvel are probably done announcing new books and I'm happy with what we got.
These Rebirth books are changing up artists super quick.

Hickman was joking around from my understanding and people took it as something serious.
Supreme, but the real cut was All-New Invaders
Mediocrity in book form
fucking up a book where one of the characters is a robot who gets on fire and who fucking killed the real Marvel Universe Hitler is CRIMINAL
also: this khoi pham announcement could be fine, maybe, depending on who they get to do inking and colors
lol what's funny is that's basically the phone call I had to take yesterday.

Still yet to check out manifest destiny, I don't want to give Brian what he wants. Previews look great, although all that old joined up font
Wait Ultimate is done?
Interview with Valiant and Bat in the sun about Ninjack. Sounds really ambitious and something neither company had done before.

Ult Spidey is done, Marvel is also doing Team Up shorts, Rocket/Groot and AntMan/Wasp are the first ones with Iron Man and Spidey/Venom shorts coming later.

Even my kid hates ultimate Spider-Man. He dug the whole spectacular and earths mightiest heroes stuff but he's uninterested in the current Disney xd stuff, to an almost spectacular degree. For a kid who lives superheroes, he couldn't be less interested.
When a fan asked Slott about Spectacular during the CC panel earlier today, he told him to look out for the animation panel lol.
Dont worry, JSA Deluxe Edition that ties in with the new Ongoing was delayed to 21.March 2017, so you will get Ongoing in just 6 months

Well the character design of the current stuff is bland, the backgrounds are hideous, most of the character reinventions are boringm and the fighting is worse.
Even if a kid didn't get wrapped up in the loftier story ambitions of Spectacular and Avengers EMH, the current stuff is just unappealing.

Sadly, the ratings were good enough to keep pushing that crap for 4 years.
And fucking over Keaton just pissed me off.
I'm making the thread.
