We fighting again? I want to be Spider-Man this time so I get the cool Iron Spider suit and flip flop like a wuss.

Gah, what the hell? I just started reading Astro Boy like, 2 weeks ago or something. Imported it and all that jazz. The English editions are all super out of print, and Vertical was the only one bothering with Tezuka stuff any time recently and they seem to have given up on it as of late. I thought I was safe.

And then of course Dark Horse apparently JUST announced nice new omnibus editions that they'll be coming out with for the series!

Guys I think I read like two issues of No Man's Land and then forgot all about comics for a while. I haven't even gotten around to reading Mastermen. How do I cure myself!?

If there's one thing I hate in comic books, at least the DC ones, are crossovers in a freaking trade paperback. I mean, you start reading the next page and suddenly nothing makes sense anymore, and then you realise you're in the middle of a different story. Only read trades? Too bad, you'll have to boy another one to get the whole story. Even worse when the trade contains only the middle of the arc.

Yeah, right now I'm talking about the "Superman: Doomed" story arc.

Probably not by reading Mastermen

And also you've got it all wrong. This IS the cure!

Usually when I'm in a comic slump I pick up one of my favorite books (Six Gun Gorilla most of the time) and flip through it and admire the art. That puts me in the mood to read new stuff.

Or I could start posting NEXTWAVE images, that will probably make you want to read.

Damn, yeah, all the Nextwave posts over the past few pages have been getting to me. I'll probably start reading comics again tonight. Feels good man. I still need to read Six Gun Gorilla, too..

I find myself randomly buying shit on the site daily.

CMX still needs to work on that draw, though. Met some people in the target demo who didn't know what it was. Marketing campaign outside of book adverts needs to happen with that Amazon $$$

working on it!

HIT ME UP OFF NEOGAD|F
 
No it's true, I know for sure someone don't like me here. I have heard through the grapevine. I'm not starting anything. I'm not being hard on myself. I'm not naming names. I'm actually dropping this now.

It's kinda like being at work. When someone if off, the rest of the workers tend to talk about the person not there that day. So, in turn, I know when I'm off, they have to talk about me. I'm human, I have faults. Those faults don't mesh well with others. It's the way of the world.

...

We have a grapevine? There's like, seven people in this thread.

Picked up Spider-Gwen #1 and because someone said so I grabbed The Black Hood #1 (Mack variant).

NTGYK probably forced you.

My mission won't be complete until each and every one of you sons of bitches has started reading The Black Hood.

Man, you're pimping this shit like Messi pimps Harley. And Sunstone. And Sejic. And sometimes Catwoman.

It was a good issue, though. I enjoyed it. I'll stick around at least through the first arc, but it makes me curious to try out more of these Dark Circle comics.

I think it's a cool attempt at branching out. Looks like the next two titles will tackle weird crime (The Fox) and conspiracy/espionage (The Shield). Plus, I've always liked Swierzcynski's crime fiction.

What are the chances of Dormammu and Shuma-Gorath making an appearance now that the stakes have been raised? Id like to see how they would fare with all the craziness going on.

Didn't Shuma appear in the first issue of Mighty Avengers during Infinity?

Only a small fragment. Blue marvel quickly shut him out. Dorm and SG are supposed to be omnipotent in their own universes or realms so I'm wondering if they will see their end, too. Same with Mephisto, Surtur, and others in the all-father category or higher.

Ahh, I only read the first issue so I wasn't sure how that all went down.
God, Capcom's sprite animation is amazing.

Oh yeah. Third Strike and Darkstalkers blew me away the first time I saw them.
 

Kipp

but I am taking tiny steps forward
That's really, really cool Ed. Very unique style and awesome coloring. That background is pretty neat too.

Got my New Frontier Deluxe Edition, damn it's big!

Now to order Solo and Rucka's Wolverine run for my b-day :p
Morrigan hasn't aged well.

It's disappointing when people always brings her sprite up because they never bother to mention the great sprite work they did on the rest of the DS cast, let alone their output during the 90s.
