I started Shutter vol 1 and it seems prettttttty great so far. The OHC seems delayed, is it going to include more than the first two trades? Is it still happening?

Also, Gamefly shipped FFXV yayyyyyyyy time to beat Side Quest Raider before it arrives. Overwatch season 3 soon...

Awesome! We have a 2ds in the house (we have more 3ds than people at this point), I like the form factor, it's reaaally comfortable to hold. If they did an xl equivalent with a nicer finish that would be my 3ds of choice probably. I don't take my 3ds anywhere so the slate shape is no prob. Game is great!



AmVamp when it actually ships hah. Still waiting on those Gaiman curated sandman books to surface, although if that happens, I doubt it would be *vertigo* at this point

I bought a Lenovo Yoga 710 11' over the Black Friday weekend. This works as both a laptop and tablet and comics look really good on it. Keep in mind it is using Win10 which means the only way to view comixology is through their website or download the PDF or CBZ. Comics are a little blurry when zoomed in if your viewing it from the website but from a PDF it's in full HD and looks crisp on this screen. Imo, this is way better than a Surface tablet.

My New 3DS has that and I love it

I would love to have one like that dude! Og 3ds here though and I doubt I'll find a reason to updated before or even after switch comes out. Very jealous of y'all.

How is the division these days, does anyone play? I played at launch on Xbox then dropped out. Got it free with my new Ps4 though, probably fuss around with it as a result but no idea how its changed since launch

Just a heads up for US folks. There is a service called Hoopla for public libraries that among other things, lends out digital comics. They carry stuff from pretty much every pub but Marvel and Valiant and have a good selection of stuff. Quality isn't CMX HD, but about on par with Marvel Unlimited. You're limited to 15 titles checked out per month, but there are no holds or wait lists, everything is immediately available.

I got an email from them that they will be getting the DC Rebirth trades the same day as Amazon and bookstores, starting today with the deluxe version of DC Universe Rebirth. So if you're looking for the most inexpensive way to check out the Rebirth books, Hoopla will have you covered.

If you're curious about their selection, you can check it out at www.hoopladigital.com

They said they wont be doing anything with hardcovers until well after the book is over. The solicit for the final arc even mentions that the book wont be collected in trade form for a long time.

PLEASE NOTE: This extended-length final arc will not be collected for some time after it ends, so readers of SHUTTER VOL. 4: ALL ROADS TP's shocking ending are highly encouraged to sign up for the single issues' duration.

That's kinda disapppointing, are the sales bad? Am I killing the book? I've never killed a book before...maybe.

COMICS! lOTl December 2016 Conservatives already got their present, the rest can have comics.

The book is ending on its own terms. I asked about OHCs before and they told me they wanted to wait till after its over due to the fact that trade sales were strong and the fact that they didnt want to burn the people who were supporting them through trades.

Its still weird how they handled Iceman's sexuality. Jean: "Hey Bobby, I know what's going on there. You are gay"

Bobby: "Oh, yeah, thanks for that Jean. I can finally say so"

Done.

My hopes were up until I searched...my library is pretty nice but they think comics were a mistake and are also not participating in this. I could read books with words...

Ah bummer

I don't know. Scott/Jean, Forge/Storm, Scott/Emma, Kitty/Peter, Doug/Warlock, X-Men has always been about who's fucking who. Why doesn't Iceman get to play?

I laughed way too hard at this

New Pokemon game is really awesome but I definitely understand that if you're going for a switch. Stars will likely be brilliant but I doubt it'll be radically different.

The interesting thing about the Iceman book to me is that Adult Bobby has a completely different outlook on his sexuality than we have seen from the younger version.

I can only imagine the twitter outrage

#Jeangreygate

Still its weird. I mean a few months before all of that he kinda said he loves Kitty Pryde. Allthough he never had a chance because his name wasn't Peter.
