Having only read the first three trades of Sandman from the library, I started Sandman Overture today and didn't think too much of issue #1 outside of the art. These books have always felt too dreamy.

That's the point.

Neil Gaiman is the best storyteller alive.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Allred is good but is he $800 a page good?

Probably. I mean, if they sell at those prices, then people are willing to pay it.

I understand they rarely sell.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

I cant decide between Allreed and Marcos Martin.

 

[whatsinaname]

So...

The Comic-GAF Official Super Artist is...

J.H.Williams III on Layouts
Joe Made on Pencils
???? on Inks
FCO on Colours....

(I say that because the colours in Zero Year were Messi-tier)

My list would be

JH Williams on Layouts
Don Rosa on Pencils
Guy Davis on Inks
Guarnido on Colours

Errrr... That's Anka and it's funny.

A retcon. It was established in Gen X that she sleeps naked.

 

[Rhaknar]

who the fuck would pay 800 bucks for ANY artist's page?

A retcon. It was established in Gen X that she sleeps naked.

I need proof, because...reasons

Sleeping naked is the superior way to sleep.

You really should read all of the main Sandman run and then Overture. You're missing a ton of context in Overture if you just go in blind.

Yes.

I'm not surprised. If your house like, a great big Harley Quinn shrine?

I forget the issue but this would have been mid 90s Generation x series. All I remember were a couple of the students barge into her bedroom they see her naked, she gets mad and chases them out.

 

[Messi]

I was told this recently. I gave one room where I hang out and I has all my comics and stuff. Apparently I have too much Harley stuff.

 

[WadiumArcadium]

I forgot how scary Willem Dafoe is.

 

[Zombine]

^
I can't stop laughing

Nah man. One room is fine. My home office doubles as the figure room. I love them, but I don't want them to take over the entire house lest I become one of those people.

I'm not opposed to reading comic books...but that's a lot of comics. I have Absolute Sandman volume 2 and 3 from a used sale but haven't read them yet.

Zombeens you mean?

It's only 2 omnibi. That's not that bad.

Same. My nerd shit is all in one room.

 

[tim1138]

If we're taking current artists the answer is always Chris Burnham or Nick Pitarra.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Zombeens you mean?

Zombeens are simply the worst.

Srsly, tho - I was thinking more along the lines of the behavior you see out of hikikomori.

That scene was funny AF.

[Tizoc]

haha I love Hickman's work. He's an exceptional plotter, writes dialogue well, consistent, has solid overarching ideas that run his stories, and makes good use of the medium. His action is so and so. He has his motifs tho. Time displacement the most obvious one


Frank Quitely da God.

Most inventine storyteller in comics.



This is...?

Catch the Rainbow!

Spoiler

It's from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 7: Steel Ball Run
This is Blackmore's Stand, granting him the ability to assimilate with (at least) rain drops. It's form is a mask that resembles Jason Vorheez's

Can't wait for the next issue.

Where Damian got killed?

wow you're horrible. Do you visit orphanages and tell them there's no Santa for kicks?

 

[Freezasaurus]

?

Is that Joker brandishing a butter knife? Dastardly.

 

[TheKaeptain]

Where Damian got killed?

Damian would have totally beat that ass if it wasn't for the arrow and bullets.

You see his Red Skull variant?

 

[Freezasaurus]

You see his Red Skull variant?

[Coriolanus]

Whole ishs can barely justify 4 bucks for 20 pages, and d00ds b droppin' 800 obamas on a page. smh

 

[PsychBat!]

You see his Red Skull variant?

HHHHHHHHMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

 

[Boogiepop]

So is it just me, or does Devil Dinosaur (and by extension Moon Boy) get dumped in a lot of stuff? Pure happenstance that it occured, but I happened to read two things with him popping up in the last week...

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Has Damian still his new powers?

 

[PsychBat!]

Where Damian got killed?

wow you're horrible. Do you visit orphanages and tell them there's no Santa for kicks?

booooooo

 

[tim1138]

Yep, his Howard variant was great too

So is it just me, or does Devil Dinosaur (and by extension Moon Boy) get dumped in a lot of stuff? Pure happenstance that it occured, but I happened to read two things with him popping up in the last week...

I fail to see a problem here

 

[Brian Fellows]

Sounds like a good time to me.
