Read it in trades. It's like a Bendis book. It reads better in trade.

Some of them also have good dads. Good homocidal dads.
Hey to be fair at least one of them is a child soldier or orphans

Man, I haven't ready comics in weeks, but I liked Runaways 2. I still sort of wish they didn't go with a putting-the-team-back-together thing, but good god, do I still love Old Lace.
I want it to have as many issues as Slott on ASM. I really missed it.
Runaways was my first comic.

Remember this book?
It was supposed to be released last November, then was cancelled and was going to be re-solicited for Spring 2017. And now I can't even find it on Image's webpage(except for the interview I linked above).

Wasnt Hickman Writting and Drawing the book lol? He probably has too much on his plate now that hes working on a DC book along with finishing SHIELD
lmao
I don't think I've ever read a Red Sonja comic but I'm really digging this Sideshow print (and eventual statue) by Alex Pascenko. Had to buy it.

Besides the price, I think the most offensive thing Sideshow does with most (all?) of their prints is that they have an automated penciled signature that signs those prints. I would rather there be no signature than a machine recreating a signature.
Edit: Just checked into it and some of their prints are automated whereas others are hand signed.

I fucking knew this would happen the second I changed it lol
Its a little odd that the news of Amanda and Jimmy leaving Harley popped up in a piece about Harleys current popularity. It felt like a footnote much like the announcement of the new team, also buried in that story. You would think DC would announce the change over given how long they have been on the book. Maybe even have an announcement of their next title ready. As it is we just have them saying they are taking a break and working on creator owned books.
I did like that they said they are going to go spend their money on each other lol.

I think Zenzele might be the only exception (out of characters who actually have parents anyway).
Wasn't she a child soldier or something
It didn't seem like that was her parent's choice (as far as I remember).
Wow, so apparently Tom King is working on Hobo with a Shotgun.
Interesting. Would be nice to see Swamp Thing ongoing come back (and kind of funny if King is writing it, since Snyder was writing Batman and Swamp Thing both too, early into the New 52). Will probably be a one-shot or miniseries or something, though.
Yeah, the latest issue was more light hearted and jokey with Jen even
breaking the fourth wall.

Same.
I was at a live taping of a podcast at SDCC this year, and I saw a plastic cup or something fall off the balcony and hit someone in the head. It turned out to be her.

YES! Bring back Swamp Thing! Wasn't Capullo dropping hints left and right that he was interested in doing Swamp Thing? How did nothing come of that?
I'm trying to read through all the trades that i bought but am not that interested in and it seems like a horrible idea that will end comics. Up next: Mara by Brian Wood.
Maybe i will do a thing where if the first issue of the trade is bad i stop reading.
Sidenotes:
good art haul Messi.
I returned Destiny 2 to gamefly after playing way too much late at night accomplishing next to nothing. I beat the story, i did a couple strikes, i grinded way too much on public events that it feels like i wasted those hours and then i decided to jump ship a bit and see if i want to rent it again to join a clan and try to do Nightfall stuff and if i even care to. Iffy loot, but i like throwing super grenades at things.
I'm surprised Hellboy in Hell library edition isn't half off at IST so i shall wait to buy it.

It was brilliant.
Amazing Spider-Man was great too. I hate this status quo reset but the actual book was good.

I need to catch-up some on Gwenpool and SG. Maybe I should use one of my stockpiled one month MU codes.

I'm hoping the status quo reset somehow means Slott writes a great book again.
ASM hasn't been bad, but it's been tedious. And since Marvel won't take Slott off the book for fear he leaves Marvel, I feel like we're in for a lot more Danny Boy
Sorry for the image dump but I wanted to get these up before my flight home.

Not sure how I missed this but those are great, especially the Tajo. How many sketchbooks you have going? 2?
It's not an ongoing, they're doing an anthology special in like January or something. I believe it was announced at NYCC as the Swamp Thing Winter Special. It's also going to have the last story ever written by Len Wein in it.
Re: Wild Storm
it takes place on its own Earth in the DC Multiverse. I think Ellis jokingly called it Earth-WS
Ahhh, I had something similar happened to me where an artist drew on the wrong page.
I didn't see that...I'll have to get the cover once its out. I've always been a fan of Scalera's art.
Nah, just has DCU characters in it.
Another looks at The Unexpected:
That makes more sense.
Actually, this could be a Metal tie in. I can see this being a world of the dark multiverse.

The Dark Multiverse world's only last for tiny periods of times though , most of their 'history' is counterfeit that forms with the world , just to play out whatever intense fear / desire brougbt the world into being and once that's been done the world collapses. It's only by having enough people invested in that fear / hope that the world can stabilise and rise into the "real" Multiverse.

Looking more into it, it seems like there is a sale on Amazon, I just can't see it or buy anything from it. Every title, outside of the two DC Essentials, says "this title is currently not available for purchase" on the page, with no buy button. Anyone every have this happen to them before? I tried using a VPN, I live in Canada, but they still won't show up.
Oooh yeah, I remember that now.

Just remembered pre nu52 Parallax was still around. Surprised they didn't mention him at NYCC.(Unless I missed it.)
