Was testing out the thread formatting (new format is difficult) and almost posted the thread in this thread. Threadception.

Also people are already cosplaying as snotgirl? cool

Actually hold on, shing and Launchpad.

If Valiant is actually worth 1/3rd of a damn then why didn't they get an edgy HBO series for any of their characters?

Todd McFarlane 1

Valiant 0

Checkmate.

Detective Comics #941

first let me just say I wasn't a fan of the colorist hear. it is like they used a bloom filter on the awesome drawings making my eyes hurt on some pages.

That being said the action panels, and dialog was dope.


I think this book delivers the most brutal death scene of the week. I wonder who is going to solve the monster problem though

4/5

In all seriousness I wonder what it's going to take to get HBO to green-light an Invincible animated series, it's going to happen sooner or later.

Think after I catch. I'm going to jump into valiant monthly after Stalinverse is done.

So far my top three books are

XO Manowar
Archer and Armstrong
Harbinger

I like the idea and lore of shadow man more so than the actual series right now,

I'm not entirely sure where Kill or Be Killed is going. Issue #2 meandered quite a bit which is surprising.

Also, really odd panneling.

X-Men 92 #1 was fucking awful. Its not cute or funny, just cringe-y, and the art is...off. Being non-cannon means I have no interest in wgere the story goes, even if it was interesting, which it isnt. Also why the fuck doesnt a book based on the cartoon have Cyclops and Jean in it?

Uncanny X-Men #5 - Magneto and his X-Men kill all the Dark Riders who go out like bitches after seemimgly being a big threat for a bit. Oh well. Art was terrible this issue too. At least it seems Mystique and Fantomex will finally join soon. The continuing non-explantion of drone Archangel is annoying, but I assume its explained in Apoc Wars which starts next issue.

Vision #5 - Vision is questioned by the police while Virginia is losing it at home, Vin is having some sort of existential crisis and Vin is just falling into depression. Fuck this book is dark. And amazing.

Shadowman starts off alright, but it gets pretty weak. The Ninjak arc with him and the 4001 AD tie in were better than his actual book. Hopefully they bring him back with a good writer at some point.

Mind linking the reading order you're using and where you're at with that?

I feel super anxious while reading Snotgirl lol

I'm on the second page and just finished the first issue of Harbinger War.

Ah, alright. Looks very comprehensive, but in case you're not feeling some things, not everything there is essential and not everything has to be read in that order, either. If you're feeling Harbinger, A&A, or whatever a lot, just plow it. Shadowman and the first Bloodshot series are skippable, except maybe the Harbinger Wars tie-in for Bloodshot.

Are there any ongoing Valiant titles that you don't read, Launchpad?

MASSIVE Captain America Steve Rogers spoilers

CW2 development. We finally know why Bruce Banner was studying gamma cells even though he was cured. Steve Rogers totally orchestrated the research to get the heroes off his scent while he did Hydra things!!!

I'm not doing the story justice because I'm in such awe and disarray. Just go read it. WTF
Book was crazy in a good way.
 
You guys are distracting me from my comics

So thank god for you

I did finish the latest issue of Birthright which was HOLY FUCK AMAZEBALLS as usual.

Uncanny Avengers #7 - Standoff tie-in as Rogue's team gets a wind of what's going on in Pleasantville from Wrecker of all people. Funny stuff with Deadpool, Stegman's art has improved dramatically compared to the early issues and I like this event so this was a good one. Not so sure about them trying to make Synapse happen, Synapse isnt happening so stop trying guys.

Deadpool #8 - Deadpool vs Sabretooth part 1 and its the least jokey Wade has been in years, and its great. Deadpool thinks Creed killed his family so he almost decapitates him and is about to have a throw down. Straight to the point with this one, felt super brisk. Great art too, really liking this book. The peanut gallery has a little moment also where each member is successful in their current missiom while Deadpool is away.

Agents of SHIELD #3 - Standoff tie-in as the team learns about Pleasantville and tracks down Rick Jones for some explaining. This was ok but the tv show stuff shoed-in still rubs me the wrong way. I get what they are trying to do I guess but I don't have to like it. Maybe if the book wasn't so bland I guess.
