Man. Now, granted, I'm only one episode in, but I think Smallville's version of Lex is GREAT. So much better than the seemingly similarly aged BvS version.

Rosenbaum was easily the best live action Luthor, even if it did steal the Spider-Man/Harry Osborn dynamic wholesale.

Finally saw Clash of Champions, so good. This country is on the right track to Trumpville..

also SNL has been pretty good and Messi would like the Margot Robbie skit? The cold open was great, i don't even mind that they mocked our future Great One.

Just so I'm clear:
-No more GIF reviews
-Spoiler tag explicit emotional reactions beyond "I liked this," "I didn't like this," and, "I don't know how I feel about this."

That sum it up? I can deal with it.

I don't mind some posters doing the gif stuff because the write better reviews than most people here like bkata <3 and then others like psych post some funny varied ones.


Just change it up.

New Avengers #16: Pretty fun arc, I like how it stopped giving a damn about the actual CW2 and just kicked ass throughout. I wish Maker does more outside of this book.

It's like Standoff, where they just said "fuck it, SHIELD is chasing Rick Jones. AMERICAN KAIJU!"

Supremely stupid move. Especially after all the SHIELD shit that had just gone down.

I've always been partial to Kevin Spacey myself. Which is funny, because Rosenbaum's Luthor is him redoing his JLU impression of Luthor during "The Great Brain Robbery," which is him doing a Spacey impression.

I don't like reading trades because the pages aren't flat and I don't like digital because I read them as single pages and although that prevents reading ahead, it feels cut off from the overall vision.

Comics are complicated.

Whose idea was it to give Batman those shoulder spikes he had in the late 90's? They bug the fuck out of me

Cassandra Cain Batgirl is just super enjoyable to read. I'm not really sure where this whole "no secret identity" thing is going. Makes Batman seem like a huge douche though, since he refers to it making her "a more effective weapon." Interesting, considering her dad raised her to be a weapon, and her entire stint as Batgirl so far has been proving that programming wrong.

Fuck you, Bruce.

Khouri tweeted a few things:

Velma by Otto Schmidt:

And a Green Arrow #12 tease from Otto Schmidt. Between Ben, Otto, Juan and Stephen, we got four-five issues in production at any given time:

All the Green Arrow artists color their own work, so Nate's able to design titles and SFX from the final colors straight away.

If you post an emotion you felt during reading a comic untagged and someone else sees it, you are robbing people of that emotion because you know you should be having those feelings while reading.

It's common courtesy. You see its bothered some people. It takes two seconds to spoiler tag. I spoiler tag everything on launch day bar stuff like.. I liked this or this was good.

I am sorry for this people, but I wont do this.

Dont care if that makes me an asshole, but there is always a point where spoiler culture hits the point where its laughable.

Is anyone familiar with Mezolith? Reading a little about it, and it sounds super interesting with some incredible art. It's a coming of age story set 10,000 years ago during the stone age, so it's historical fiction, but also plays with horror elements, magical/spiritual elements with gods and spirits they believe in walking the land, survival stuff, there's a real nice preview from cbr here: click

Oh come the fuck on. There are plenty of movies out there where it common knowledge that they are sad and not happy and they still make people sad. There is nothing like robbing emotions.
Of course there a difference between mixing emotions with spoilers like posting "I am so sad that
xyz
is dead" and "shit, after this issue I am super sad and I feel bad now:/" there are millions of possiblities that could me make feel bad or maybe I am the only one who got bad feelings and nobody other cares. And that is the point again where nobody has a clue what could be a spoiler and what not and this just kills of discussions. Nobody would do this in real life.

"The new issue of Squirrel girls was super fun, loved what they did Hellcat!" - ups, should be in a tag.

I am super sick of all this super sensitiv spoiler scaremongerin in the internet.

This isn't what we are talking about and you know it.

Also it doesn't kill discussion. It's still in spoiler tags if someone wants to read it. You are just being inconsiderate. What do you gain by being difficult about this?

On Wednesday people repeatedly discussed the sad thing that happened in saga. Then someone listed characters they are glad are still alive.

As I said yesterday. Keep doing what you are doing. We never change every time this comes up. Why would this be different. I just wont come here on Wednesdays as usual.

Image Hardcovers are fantastic. A few specific ones have issues with the binding, like Black Science and The Wicked + The Divine. But other than that, it's a great format.

Thanks! Just ordered it on Amazon, should be here by Tuesday-Wednesday.

Have I mentioned how lucky Americans are to have IST? They have it for $38(after conversion) vs $56 I paid on Amazon. Unfortunately, IST's international shipping is slow, expensive, and untrackable/uninsured.

I havent read what was discussed on wednesday and when there were real spoilers dropped this is a no-no.
There were a couple of posts that occured here in the last two pages were revolving around "everything beside I like this Issue" is now to be tagged. And this is what I wont do. We dont have to discuss if real spoilers are to be tagged, its a thing of honor to not do this, but like I said, we should not get ridicolus. But when thats not what was planed, then its fine.

It's pointless to talk about it as we are just waiting for the next mildly important moment to get spoiled because someone is excited. Gaf will never change in regards to spoilers. The second the last issue of the last deadly Class arc ended this place was a complete shit show of people dancing on the line gleefully trying to spoil the end while not crossing the line.

Not that I have the money for such a wonderful thing, but this Hellboy sculpture is gorgeous, probably one of the best I've ever seen. $300 is too rich for my veins, $380 plus shipping for niternational, but I know some of you are hardcore of this kind of stuff

I don't think I realized how much losing Capullo and the rest of the art team from Batman would hurt my interest in the book.

For sure, the teaser for the next volume looked awesome. He mentioned working on an all new project too so I'd like to think he's deep in witches already, surely he's known what he'll actually do for awhile, even if he had to wait for the time to actually script the whe thing.
