How's Halloween in Japan?

Depends on where you go, but typically extremely crazy. Last Halloween I was in Shibuya and Shinjuku until the morning, which I hadn't done since college. That was pretty ridiculous.

I actually prefer a less party-centric Halloween. It feels like it misses the mark for what I feel about Halloween. I like Horror movies, scary costumes, haunted houses, and dark, cold, creepy weather. Last year was a night of seeing tons of people, drinking, meeting a French girl, and karaoke. Very different kind of Halloween.

Do you dress up? I imagine people dress up as monster and shipgirls?

 

[Freezasaurus]

I wonder if it is like my fave mangas (Death Vigil) or Animes.

It is probably more like Urotsukidoji.

Anyone know which editon of New Avengers these trades are next to the Omnibus(Vol. 4-7)? Are they Deluxe Editions, and does anyone know where to find them? I cant seem to find them on Amazon.

Wish all the Complete Edition Trades were available on the Kindle store. Only 1 and 5 are for some reason lol.

Those aren't trades, they're oversized hardcovers. At least one or two of those is long out of print, unfortunately. Maybe all of them.

Yeah looks like it. I cant seem to find any of them. Will probably just get the new Complete Collections. Just a fan of the larger HC trades personally.

Yeah, I dress up. I've seen really crazy costumes. As you can imagine, many girls are zombies or nurses or zombie nurses.

New Super-Man #18 was *supposed* to be the last issue of the series. But then--!

For those who thought New Super-Man was ending.

Red Death was SO great. This is feeling like a classic Johns event.

I think it's right in a cosmic sense that the first story set in the Dark Multiverse is a Flash story, and whoever at DC made that call is a top-notch good egg.

Well obviously

 

[Dalek]

These FF rumors have me emotionally erect.

One of them I'm fine with the other however will start going through his "research" magazines

 

[Dalek]

Begone.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Well obviously

You had to Google that one, didn't you?

 

[Messi]

You had to Google that one, didn't you?

No I know all of the finest animes.

 

[LordOfLore]

What's the worst writer/artist pairing that you've actually read an issue by?

 

[caliph95]

No I know all of the finest animes.

Like the Bible Black

 

[Messi]

What's the worst writer/artist pairing that you've actually read an issue by?

Ann Nocenti and her artistic partners on Catwoman New 52 (all of them)

Like the Bible Black

Yes absolutely, that's a thing I've read.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Oh man, I dont know if Messi is into that futanari stuff.

I honestly don't know if the Legacy OT will go up this week or next but should I still address who's on what book or do I just put the books with new people?

 

[Sandfox]

I love the current stories in All-New Wolverine and Spectacular Spider-Man so much...

Kubert is killing it on art and Zdarsky is making me laugh out loud.

If you're going to make a thread then you will need to address the old stuff because a number of them will be doing things important to Legacy.

All New Wolverines newest arc was great fun. I love Gabby and Jonothan.

 

[Sandfox]

Gabby and Jonathan are some of the best new characters in a long time.

The recap was posted awhile back, it basically sums up the core characters from the last 2 years.

I should catch up on this book. Let me know when there's a sale because lmao at $3.99 back issues. Fuck off Marvel.

 

[my name is ed]

Theres a manga adaptation of Star Wars in that amazon sale so thats cool

 

[Messi]

The trades are on sale on Amazon. You don't have to pay 3.99 for back issues unless you are being dumb.

Shea Fontana's arc on Wonder Woman was nice. Inoffensive, but nice. I liked how she wrote Diana and Etta.

 

[Dalek]

I think the time is now for another Marvel/DC Crossover. It’s been forever since we had one of those.

Essentially impossible since they were both bought by bigger companies

 

[Freezasaurus]

Marvel x Star Wars crossover, tho! We could get an Immortal Iron Fisto book.

Whatever the fuck Gen X is right now

 

[Conan-san]

So finished US Avengers GN 1 and I’m really wanting to know more about Danni Cage as future Captain America and I bet marvel hasn’t written pannel one beyond the stuff here.

She shows up in Ewing's New Avengers, which is a precursor to U.S. Avengers

 

[Conan-san]

Is it worth the read?

Edit: stupid question. For a fiver I'll throw down with anything south of CWII

 

[NEO0MJ]

So, how's infamous iron man? Haven't read a funny book in a long time and I'm interested by it's premise.

 

[Mistouze]

Just found out about the Akham Asylum 2 announcement. Fuck yeaah.

And now, we wait.

 

[Dalek]

Guardians was great this week. Seems like the first arc is over now.
Spider-Men 2 was really great too-nice backstory.
Invincible Iron Man-not so good. And ends up with trash level anime art in the end.

 

[ElNarez]

how do you feel about Bendis and Maleev together, picking up on the end of Secret Wars, and twists?

because it's all that and it's one of the few Marvel books I still buy

 

[LordOfLore]

Yep.

A Jason Aaron run on FF could really be something, Imagine the long form storytelling hes been doing across his Thor run across a FF story. It would be a big call to put arguably there biggest writer at the moment on a FF series though, would show a lot of faith in the characters that they haven't seemed to want to do for a while. So I don't know if I'm convinved, would still make a lot more sense to me that he was going to be on an Avengers run.

After they pretty much said "The book is being cancelled because no matter what team we put on it it doesn't sell well enough(and because we don't have the movie rights)" putting Aaron on it and still getting the same numbers and yet letting the book go on would be a bad look.
