Put the Deadly Premonition dude on a Dr Strange story with full creative freedom.

Oh god yes! And he's taking a break from games to write to.

Mac Walters is the perfect example of a writer whose work is the definition of middling.
Vision is probably the best thing Marvel has put out in some time.
Marvel would never bite on that. Where full creative freedom is concerned, it's only a matter of time until the spectral dildos come out.
It really doesn't. Don't over think this.

Rhianna Pratchett can write Wonder Woman and really make us want to take care of her and protect her.

DC would have to do something drastically different with Wonder Woman at this point to make me interested again.

Correct. It's for the best. Many a good book has outlived its good story ideas and become garbage in the process. See: Exiles.
It's from the DC Nation Wonder Woman shorts by Robert Valley. You can watch them on Youtube.

Rucka's fanbase would loudly disagree.

Reveling in past glories, that lot. His current run is a boring old origin story and a so-so story with an admittedly bad-ass Cheetah redesign.

Arkham Knight is an original character.

I want Kojima to write Deathstroke, to keep with the trend of legends working on this B+ player's book

Tried to spend this book voucher today but the selection in my local book stores is rubbish.
Ended up using it on the Foyles website and ordering:
- Saga Volumes 1 & 2
- Lazarus Volume 1
- Deadly Class Volume 1
- East of West Volume 1
Only read the first issue of each on Comixology so looking forward to them.

Too many hardcore WW fans feel Azzarello "damaged" her image and Rucka is coming in doing "repairs". It feels like Rucka ultimately wants to pass-on writing duties after this origin and Cheetah story cuz him writing WW has to be the most easiest job.

Wow two of my three favourite books in there, and the other two aren't far behind. Fantastic haul there man, can't complain.
Also plsplspls don't read any lazarus spoilers. We're having issues in here tonight

They can fuck off. Azzarello did the first decent Wonder Woman book in ages.

How old is Kot?
Just another name for Red Hood.
And even Red Hood was shit after his introduction.

How old is he or how old does he act?

Is the honeymoon over? We can now talk shit about Kot?
BKatastrophe
Member
You mean he was angry, angsty, and full of outrage? So he was Red Hood? Also, it wasn't another name for Red Hood. Arkham Knight and Red Hood both represented something completely different.

Suda51 on Uncanny X-Men.
Edit: On second thought, I don't think he writes.

Facts. Also, it should have just been two books.
Don't understand why we can have 50 Batman and Superman books, but we can't have two Wonder Women books when it's obviously two distinct stories.
I am enjoying the modern stuff though.

Because they want to double-ship it but no artist can put out a single story at that pace.
I'm not sure if you're sarcastic or not, but this would legit be amazing. I'll take Kojima's brand of batshit over Kot's any day. Heck, Bucky not talking much would work much better in a comic than a game.
Man, I need to catch up on Dr. Strange and Black Panther. Those Image price increases to $3.99 for some books (Bru and Rucka) really hurts too.

Daisuke Watanabe (FF13 writer) on Captain Marvel. If he can make people love Lightning he can do the same for Carol.
People love Lightning?

It was a pretty enjoyable arc. Made me start reading the book again.

The guy who takes the prison? Nope. He's a returning character though.
The Image love in here has finally worn off on me. Been meaning to get into those books for a while.
So there's a New X-men omnibus out today, and I've been waiting on that to replace the trades that I got last year that were such crap and literally falling apart that I found them straight up unacceptable. Does anyone know if this omnibus is fine/doesn't have any major issues, or at least a place where I can find info on that? I'm extra concerned just because I planning on spending this money solely to have a nicer version, so I want to make sure I am indeed upgrading to something acceptable before I pull the trigger...
Blehhhh... I would gladly pay a dollar more each for two monthly books instead.

Yeah, have you read the Star Wars annual? The character is in that.
Freezasaurus

That reminds me. Did Boushh ever actually exist? I guess what I'm asking is, did Leia make up her own bounty hunter or steal some guy's clothes?
She stole the gear in the old EU.
Not yet, I am Tradewaiting
WadiumArcadium

Yeah, this was actually made canon. The Black Sun killed him and Leia used his gear.
I would have thought they'd stuck it in a trade by now. That's surprising.
