It was so long ago I don't even remember. I don't think it was really anything approaching a resolution, though. So I guess Fraction came down with Kurtis Wiebe syndrome.

All-New Wolverine and Old Man Logan are dope as fuck as far as solos go. As far as team books, I really like Extraordinary X-Men. X-Men '92 is solid, but ever since the Battleworld book I've felt it's overstayed its welcome. All-New X-Men is okay. The drama isn't terribly great, but it has a shinjng issue here and there (the latest one, for example). Uncanny X-Men is bad comics. The Civil War 2 mini has been solid so far

I don't think I'd ever had my nose in a Fantastic Four book until Hickman's FF.
Anyone interested in a complete set of Like New (unread) Gotham Central TPB's? I have the Omni so I have no use for these anymore. I'd legit be happy with like $25-30 for the lot. Not gonna bother piecing them out.
Edit: to put it into perspective, they're $15 a book and the Omni is $70.

Fantastic series, someone should just on this while it's hot.
Was going to give these to my buddy for free but he passed on it...Went to trade them in on Amazon and they were going to give me $3 for the lot lol.
Black science is solid the first 2 arcs then becomes full of bs then when it finally gets on the right path it gets weir again.
I am 2 issues behind on it

I so would if the shipping from America to Ireland wouldn't be so crazy.
This is the real shit post on this page considering Freeza's previous comment about Kelly Sue and Matt Fraction. I see you Freeza.
Keep in mind Zombine doesn't have book shelves. He stores his tpbs on the floor. These have likely been on that floor for months.

Terminator buck in winter soldier is good but looking forward to seeing him as an actual character in civil war. Does agent 13 actually get some screen time in civil war?
She's in like.... 5 scenes afaik

Ahaha. Oh well. I mean they made it that she doesn't matter so it doesn't matter but it'd be nice if she was in it more. I love when Cobie Smulders pops up in these things.

That's not Agent 13. You're talking about Maria Hill, who is not in CW.

The floor is the largest shelf of all.

Bleh, getting to the Secret Wars stuff in Claremont's XMen and NM stuff has dropped my interest considerably for whatever reason. Also probably because this is the only series I've read really heavily the past few months.
Magik is the best character btw.
Also watched Iron Man for the first time in years as part of my journey through the MCU again. Honestly the movie is ridiculously average minus RDJ, he deserves every cent he gets. Though it's amusing seeing where the MCU has gone considering this movie has loads of licensed hard rock music and Tony murdering the fuck out of terrorists. I mean damn.

Nono. I was talking about agent 13. Then after the answer I got I moved on to Hill. I'm just typing what I'm seeing on the screen haha sorry if that was unclear. I'm a huge cap bru run fan, I'd never confuse the two haha.
Not the clearest image but some concept stuff Babs Tarr did for motorcrush. From the baltimore thing going on

I'm getting total Scooby Doo vibes from Gotham Academy Annual.
You know what I mean. I see you.
Older man tries to write younger female characters. Tries to be hip. Fails.
Babs is legit tho.

Haha yea I think that was the jist of it. I really can't say any of the language or whatever used in the book was too cringe personally (I've only read the first vol). I really liked the vibe of the books and the plot ideas using modern social stuff and dating apps etc, it all seemed feasible from the standpoint of the way a lot of people I know are using social media and tindr and speaking in hashtags haha. But I appreciate we all have different views on that.
And yea, regardless of the writing, fantastic art.

Yes! Absolutely brilliant. I really didn't k ow a lot about the Hollywood witch hunt until I read the book and did further reading, but the art is incredible at nailing the time period a lot of great little details. Have you.got the whole thing there?

Okay. I want to read Morrison's Doom Patrol. Omnibus or trades?
Yeah I got the entire series, comixology sale a while ago. Learned about the blacklist in a film class years ago, but forgot most of it. I've also read some of the articles in each issue, interesting stuff there, like the story of Fatty Arbuckle.
Really need to read more Brubaker. Fatale and Velvet are also on the list, and I actuallly have Gotham Central complete on my iPad.

Both are great books. Fatale was a bit different than Brubaker's usual type of book, so it was an interesting change of pace.

I hadn't thought of that. Is the price difference enormous?

All those are brilliant. I would actually put forward Criminal as his absolute best work. I think the longer form he goes, the more chance his stories have to spiral. Criminal is mini series long stories all set in a shared world as such, and they are all absolutely brilliant, and very close to the fade out, but with different era influences.
Really like fatale but as I mentioned , I think it goes a little too long. Bru is great at ratcheting up the tension, but you sustain it too long and it goes, whether the writer says it's still there or not.
Velvet is awesome and has all the best elements of his cap stuff mixed with bond. Will be interesting to see how it pans out as it has a longer run planned I think.
Fantastic writer, you can't really go wrong. I think the only thing I'm not too hot on by him is incognito.
Cheaper to buy the omnibus right now for 60 bucks unless digital has such a huge price drop.
