And then wear his face as a mask attached by a belt?

No, Wolverine will wear it on his belt instead of the A.

[sillymonkey321]

How's Invincible these days? I stopped picking up the floppies because I was spending too much plus I was double dipping with the big hard cover's each year. I stopped a little after the war.

I presume you still liked it though before you dropped it? If so, it's great right now. I thought it lost a bit of momentum again after the Viltrumite War ended but since issue 81 or so it's back in form.

[Lombaszko]

Yes, absolutely! I mean, Matt Kindt was a secret collaborator with Lemire on the run so he's maintaining the exact level of quality, if not better as he's not spread thin like Lemire was due to producing a billion books. Also, Frank speaks a lot more in Kindt's run, but that's not a bad thing.

Exactly! It felt like after a few issues he wasn't talking as much about, "God's vengeance" and such. He's been much more eloquent lately.

[SpiderJerusalem]

It's getting really hard to keep straight all the stuff I want to be reading as someone who only cares about following X-books and not Avengers books.

yea me too. I'll probably just get the Rogue one but I'm trying to ignore it until its on the shelf so I can pick out what I want. Maybe the Bendis one too and X-factor for sure if its still around.

Yeah, I still liked it it just slowed down and with all the comics I was buying I figured no need for a double dip. Glad to know it's still going strong. I flip through it now and then and the shop and I'm definitely curious as to what's up. :)

Funny how Remender told us Havok is the leader of the Uncanny Avengers team but all the covers depict Cap calling the shots.

And are these brahs going to call themselves Uncanny Avengers IRL?

[sillymonkey321]

Uncanny Avengers Assemble!

[Supermanisdead]

No they call themselves Uncanny Avengers ™

[Sblargh]

So, no one is really sure what is the scarlet witch's uniform, right?

Or she has a couple of them on the closet and just wears whatever she wants.

[Rafa=FedKilla]

It's sad to see all these brahs go in Aquaman. Do not let their deaths be in vain Arthur!

[ViewtifulJC]

I think they let Cassaday redesign it, and his only thought was "Jakita Wagner!"

[ReiGun]

Interviewer: So what's so Uncanny about this new Avengers division?
Cap: It's Avengers and X-Men...
Havok: ...Together!
Interviewer:....And what exactly is "uncanny" about that?
Cap and Havok: uhhh.....um.....

It's sad to see all these brahs go in Aquaman. Do not let their deaths be in vain Arthur!

The last one was a bummer. Such a bro.

It'll all be worth it if he gets that scepter, though.

[sillymonkey321]

You guys are making me leave comics-gaf until i get my dcbs shipment wednesday so i can read some books Xp. Never say a book is sad because everyone dies, just say it was sad!

[Zebra]

Just popping in to say that I'm excited for Hawkeye #2 next week. The first one was great.

[DTKT]

Hey gents, comic newbie here!

I'd like to read a bit more about Captain American but I'm totally clueless at where to start. Any tips?

[ReiGun]

Ed Brubaker's run on Cap, which starts with the story Winter Soldier, is great. Another Cap story I really love is Mark Waid's Man out of Time, which is all about when Cap was first taken out the ice by the Avengers.

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Brahs what is the first comic I should read digitally?

[JJD]

Those Uncanny Avengers covers just look so boring and generic. No surprise given the cast. I trust Remender, but all I'm getting from that book right now is ZZZZzzz.

You'll do well in trusting Remender bro!



This comic is going to kick ass!

Maybe this panel is a big spoiler? The Phoenix jumpstarting the mutant race again?

[Black_Stride]

whos the firestorm in nu52?

There are many Firestorms like some sort of Green Lantern Corp.
The two main ones, who the books follow are Jason and Ronnie.

Each of them is a firestorm, but when they combine they become Fury, last issue i read Fury was insane or something, so the whole combining to become awesome is gone.

Honestly its a pretty shitty book not worth reading, and i feel new 52 Firestorm is slowly becoming irrelevant how are the sales doing cuz i aint buying another one and if they cancelled it i would bat an eyelash.

New 52 Firestorm appears to be a Ronnie/Jason combo.

Not a combo both of them are Firestorms, Firestorms arent composite men in new 52.

It's sad to see all these brahs go in Aquaman. Do not let their deaths be in vain Arthur!

Aquaman has been some hectic shit, serious ive been losing it reading this crap.
Im in love with the new 52 Aquaman, I hope this book stays this good.

I dont know the last time a comic made me truly hate a character....damn you Black Manta, damn you to hell!!!!!

On Topic
When is Shazam 0 coming out....ive been curious about the Shazam books mostly because of how they had it at the ends of every Justice League book(which i liked).
I need my Shazam fix if only to see more of Black Adam

Yeesh.... I didn't need to see that, Cassaday. :\

There is no Shazam 0 per se, but Justice League 0 will be entirely about Billy.

[BlueScrote]

I would also like to once again point out that Barnes and Noble are offering a buy 2 get 1 free sale on DC trades, including Vertigo and pre-orders. If you pre-order, the books don't ship until the last pre-order is available, in most cases. Pre-ordered books have the highest discounts typically and the sale ends sometime in november. I'm waiting for them to add Absolute Top Ten to their listings to get that, Abs Sinestro Corps, and Absolute Batman and Littlebat. most recent pre-order: We3 deluxe edition - selling my tpb Superman Earth One vol 2 Unwritten tpb vol 6 Also, we DID build this thread! WE BUILT IT.

Keep pimping this so I remember to order more books.

[parrotbeak]

Never saw this before:

I'll find out if something is wrong soon; my preorder copy just shipped.

[fredrancour]

My preorder copy is already here. It was fine. Wonder what the problem was.

[tim1138]

They have the same message for the Invisibles omnibus.

[Dan]

Never saw this before: I'll find out if something is wrong soon; my preorder copy just shipped.

I've noticed that this has been happening on a fairly high percentage of DC releases. No idea what, if any, issue there really is. It'll pop up as soon as the book is shipping and then disappear after a few days. Someone out there must be complaining about something, but who knows.

[Black_Stride]

Ahh Thanks thats why i couldnt see it on the read list.
I was thinking it was just releasing later than the rest of them.

Will buy Justice League 0 for sure!

[Troll]

The Shazam story is really good. Best part of JL the last couple months imo.

[tim1138]

Agreed, I was a little apprehensive at first but Johns and Frank are killing it. I loved when Billy went to the Zoo and was feeding Tawny.

[tm24]

Just ordered some things from BN.com for the B2G1 free. Ordered Absolute Final Crisis, Absolute Sinestro Corps War and the Sleeper omni.

Buying Sinestro Corps War makes me realize, even though i still enjoy GL, i don't think i'll ever enjoy it as much as i did during that period, with the leadup and actual event being just so damn good

[Tizoc]

So apparently at one point this was gonna happen-

http://www.examiner.com/article/scra...urfaces-online

...but NOOOOOOOOOOO we got a reboot instead.
It would've been so cash, GL Optimus, Aquaman busting up Seacons, etc.

[ViewtifulJC]

This reminds me that I always liked Jimenez more then his inspiration George Perez, but don't tell anybody I said that.

Honestly could not be happier that this is not a thing. I can't stand Transformers for some reason.

For the larger omnibuses, it normally happens because people report them arriving dented or damaged due to Amazon's lack of proper protective packaging.
I'm not quite sure why that would flag up for a paperback though,they're not really likely to get dented.

[SpiderJerusalem]

You could just not have bought it?

[sillymonkey321]

The book must never exist!

[Acid08]

How's Invincible these days? I stopped picking up the floppies because I was spending too much plus I was double dipping with the big hard cover's each year. I stopped a little after the war.

It's great. Not as amazing as it has been but still super enjoyable. I look forward to it the most every month, 100 is almost here!

[tim1138]

There is no book but anti-book?

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Whoever said digital is better than print is a fucking liar.

[Troll]

Whoever said digital is better than print is a fucking liar.

I always get print if I can. For back issues I sometimes get digital, or if Comixology has a ridiculous sale I'll bite.

[gketter]

Hey gents, comic newbie here! I'd like to read a bit more about Captain American but I'm totally clueless at where to start. Any tips?

Get the Brubaker's run. Its really awesome.

[Filthy Slug]

Whoever said digital is better than print is a fucking liar.

Agreed, yo. I like going to my shop and picking up floppies and paying for physical pages and staples.

[gketter]

Whoever said digital is better than print is a fucking liar.

it is for me. *shrug*

I get cheaper comics, with no lengthy travel whenever i want, that i can always find in good quality, with no ads, and great fidelity (thanks to the hd versions of comics). Oh and buying cheap back issues for runs that never made it in trade is also great and very convenient.

Go landscape, with panel zoom. Once you get used to the navigation its great. I actually get more out of it as i'm not spoiling myself with upcoming panels on the other page

My eyes do love to wander when i'm reading a comic and it's impossible not to see a giant page spread before reading the left page first Xo.

But also, digital is best when it replaces pulling issues out of a long box to reread an issue before reading the next one. I do like to actually read a comic for the first time in print though.

Yes!

that was my other point. The only way i used to be able to reasonably re-read any of my floppies was double dipping and buying the trade. I still buy trades for some items, but now that I can actually find my old digital single issues, this was another great bonus for me. I'm too unorganized to have all my floppies bagged, boarded, put in boxes, etc

[Weenerz]

#1 physical, the rest digital.

[Filthy Slug]

... I'm too unorganized to have all my floppies bagged, boarded, put in boxes, etc

Your floppies don't come bagged and boarded? What kind of savages run your shop?

[ReiGun]

Your floppies don't come bagged and boarded? What kind of savages run your shop?

Mine neither. The only thing they bag and board are variants.

[Rafa=FedKilla]

I mean I will read non trade stuff like Peter David Aquaman.
