Paper Girls, Vol. 1
Didn't really have any idea what this book was about, just saw it recommended.
But I'm hooked. I really quite like the art and coloring, the characters seem pretty great and the dialogue is nice.

Caught up with Southern Bastards. Shit is going down in the next arc,
. Such a good book, every issue continues to be great.
Also started getting into the Star Wars comics. Read the first volume of Darth Vader, which was superb. It was impressive how much depth Gillen added to the character in just a few issues. All the flashbacks and callbacks to the prequels work, surprisingly. Last few pages of #6 were awesome.
with the homecoming loss and Coach getting surrounded from all sides

Remind me to add "Harvey award winning writer" to the Omega Men thread before posting it:

Haha, you're really smashing through them man. Still to start this one, looking forward to it though. I just kind of assume regardless of the actual plot that since it's BKV, Chaing on art that it'll be one of my favourite books once I've read it haha BKV never goes wrong with characters.
How do you feel about this series in general man? There's very ltitle coverage of it online, and the only thingI ever read by Brandon was NYC Mech, and that was an age ago.
I like how he won it for his work on Vision lol.

Haha, yea I have quite a bit of free time for the next couple of weeks and still a bit left on my budget.
And yea, great book. The actual premise is quite interesting and there's a real strong sense of mystery as well but the dialogue and characters impress me the most.

Anyone else have trouble with yahoo verifying age? Only feedback I see to correct this is it telling me to start a new account. Which seems odd.

Brilliant! That sounds great, can't wait to get hold of it, hopefully later this month. I reminds me of another book just a little in premise that I've had my eye on for awhile called the bunker, it's just about to wrap its run up. I love the whole group of kids on an adventure that actually has some really serious and adult overtones, Stranger Things recently manages to push a similar button.
You got any ideas what you're going to grab next? Are you working form a list or just grabbing whatever haha

I actually just finished up Descender Vol. 1.
That was a pretty good read with good execution on a somewhat tried concept. The arts good as well and I quite like how the story is shaping up so far.
Aa for how I find new stuff to read.. I have an excel sheet open while I read this thread. I just add all the stuff people seem to talk about and the more mentions something gets, the higher I put it. Just working my way through that.
I'll give Bunker a look.
I'm deciding between Low, Scalped or Black Monday Murders next. I have a few other stuff as well such as Omega Men, but I've ordered that as a physical version and will have to read that when I finally get home.
I knew that art looked familiar, couldn't place the name... but I would have been wrong anyway.
Was wondering what the differences were when I looked them up last night. Interest already waned from S-G.
I thought I Rebirth issue was good. People complain that it is trying to match up with the TV show, but I have no clue as I don't watch it.
And Bachalo is off Dr. Strange? Are you sure? http://comics.gocollect.com/priceguide/view/957309
9/7 Comics:
Batman #6
Nightwing #4

Oh dude that's easy, scalped is fucking awesome, one of my favourite series. Definitely Aarons defining work for now, although I think when southern bastards is done, it will have outdid it. Scalped is great and has a really big twist at the end of issue one that makes the premise even more interesting than what you probably believe it to be.
I like Descender it's definitely a cool book, I really think Lemire excels with his own art so comparing descender opening volume to sweet tooth volume 1 I'm not going crazy over it, but I will definitely stick with it, interested to see where it goes.

It's weird and I'm not sure what is going on with the story overall but I like it. It was a slow starter but it has gotten a lot better over the last two arcs IMO.

Haha its awesome. I'm highly confident you won't be disappointed. I didn't have a particularly problem with it but they do change over the colorist after the first arc, I think there was a feeling they ere too overbearing so maybe keep that in mind but in general, it's a fantastically written and drawn run and they absolutely nail the landing.
Also, it has one of the most heartfelt single issues of a series I've read, like a off the narrative path story about two characters that have no relevance to the overall plot , but it's extremely poignant.
Cool, I might check it out then. I remember when both this and invisible republic were coming out I was.amped for both but I ended.up only going with invisible republic literally just because there was really little in the way of coverage. The art looks great.

Whoa!!!
Also lmao at people shit talking Valiant without reading. 4001 or Gen Zero. Like judging Remender on fucking XXX Zombies.

Mmm, I have a hard time having anything against Yondu purely because he lays such a small part throughout the movie, but I definitely agree with the Ronan assessment. To be honest, I think you could apply your critique to a large portion of the marvel movies, and I say that as a fan.
Coincidentally i didn't like most marvel movies, especially the plotting. My favorites are winter soldier and the first Iron Man. Looking forward to civil war still.
that's next on my rent list, it was out of stock at Redbox so i went with Keanu, still a decent choice but the movie seemed to be lacking something and it felt a little stretched out despite having some great parts.
how do they trick people into thinking anything from Valiant can be "deluxe"?
Yeah, was a little bit disappointed in the first half because I expected a remake of the cartoon movie, but then I realized that its more like the book (I guess this, never read it) and loved it then.
One of the few times where I really didnt liked the german dub. When the credits came and King Louies song was played I was really bummed that I stayed with the german version, espescially when I realized that Idris Elbar voiced Sir Khan.
got this queued up, just need a good night to watch it.

Post SW isn't a separate book or anything. It's a continuation. Just not as good
They're really nice collections.
That's what serial killers say after they get caught.

Yup, I like them for what they are, and I'm also pretty psyched for civil war, but I don't think I could really go to town defending them or anything (that energy is being saved for when i get this gwen trade through and if i like it). They have flaws, but there's a lot of satisfaction just seeing the different characters on screen, and I think most have been cast well. I'm super picky with *real* movies, so superhero flicks are my outlet haha. Personal favourites so far are winter soldier and guardians. I liked the batman vs superman extended cut alot too though and amazing spiderman 2, so my opinion might be worthless to some of you guys on these movies haha.

World's Smallest is a great arc name for a team up story.

Speaking of Invisible Republic I just listened to an interview with Corinna Bechko and Gabriel Hardman last week. She was quite lovely. He was equally annoying.

Hahah, have you got a link to that? I really liked the first volume that I read of that book. Very well crafted, good world building, I thought the characters and the story were super intreguing, looking forward to reading more. Dude has some great artistic chops, he should just zip it up and keep drawing hahah pretty sure he was a storyboard artist on the Nolan bat films.
Just caught this... Holy. Shit. lol
