Fair enough
I'm just so disappointed so far
Not worth all the fuss and vhanges being made
I'm not mad I'm disappointed especially from Tom King it's doing nothing for meFair enough

Holy exposition dump Batman, the final issue of the Witching Hour was both predictable and a let down.
Well now we need someone to redraw the EVS issues as well as the Kordey issues so I'll take this is a sign that it's definitely happening
oh yeah also while I was at the shop today I saw this and thought of y'all
It's a comic with the line "You stand at the gates of the great Necropolis, facing the judgement of the Ultrapsychopomp", and I feel like we should appreciate that.
Heroes in Crisis feels like a book that is destined to have some kind of dumb twist that it'll act like is totally shocking, but everyone reading it will be like "wow, that was dumb". It doesn't help that the twist will probably be spoiled early and plastered everywhere, assuming the BC rumors aren't correct.I think the rumor was that Wally is the killer? Probably controlled by some evil force or something, which will be the shocking twist along with him being alive. Unless DC just really hates him lol
Also yoooooooo Extermination. I honestly have no idea how this is supposed to wrap up.
Narez is very French
Yeah def not jumping at that price. Not worth it.
I feels like Genosha gets regularly referencedHopeless acknowledged it in his Jean Grey run and X-Men Red is using a villain from that run if you want more New X-Men references.
Rearranged my setup in a way I'm much happier with. Now have SO much more room for omnis and deluxe editions (and even trades). Basically moved all of my over-oversized books to the top area that was kind of wasted/extra space, and took out the Image and Valiant mishmash of deluxe editions I have (those will go to a secondary bookshelf).
Over the next few months, I'll be adding WW by Perez Omni Vol 3, Red Hood and the Outlaws Omni Vol 1, Aquaman by Johns Omni, Super Sons Omni, Fantastic Four by Waid Omni, Silver Surfer by Slott Omni, and whatever Rebirth deluxe editions come out (besides JL Vol 3). So it feels good to have the space for them now.
For comparison, the shelf was completely full before I rearranged it.
(Note: the two empty spaces in the top middle shelf are for Batman by Loeb and Sale Omni and Death and Return of Superman Omni, both of which I'm currently reading.)

What good is that for the fans if it's just a more expensive looking piece of crap?
I'm all caught up on the MHA anime
What's left in life anymore? Also I'm not sure where the "Mirio is better at phasing than Kitty Pryde" opinion came from. Like, he does nothing that's special aside from having the personality he has.
Trying to check out the new crop of Vertigo stuff, get a good feel for the line so I read Border Town #1 & Hex Wives #1.
Hex Wives is a bit of a slow start, a lot of set up and it really just makes good on the blurb that appears in the listing for the book but it does have potential. Blacker makes some specific choices for the purgatory his coven of witches find themselves in despite the time period being modern/right now that makes me think he's thinking carefully about the social issues he wants to tackle. Mostly it's promise for now though. Andolfo's art was pretty good all around, particularly for the modern day part where the book will presumably be living in general.
Just wanna echo that Hex Wives was very good. Despite being mostly set up for where the series is going to go, the story moves at a pace and never feels like a text dump to clue the reader in on what the score is. Another strong debut issue from this new Vertigo.
Womankind is her girlfriend
I know she does in earth one but had she ever had an on screen girlfriend
It's like how Constantine is bi because of a throwaway line but you never seen him hook up with a dude until Tynion (i think it was him who was on the ming doyle book) gave him one
I watch the Netflix and CW shows.
Let's not throw "crap" around like everyone's not in the same sty.
I heard differently so I went back to check because I was probably wrongWait. Didn't he have lovers of all kinds in the Vertigo books? I feel like I read that somewhere.
And a new Barnaby Bagenda (Omega Men, Green Lantern/Planet of the Apes) drawn book as well
Ugh, reading?
Two big points:Wait. Didn't he have lovers of all kinds in the Vertigo books? I feel like I read that somewhere.
I've wanted to do this for awhile, so since the thread's already on that discussion:
1.) Daredevil
2.) Black Lightning
3.) Luke Cage
===========
4.) Jessica Jones
===========
5.) Flash
6.) Arrow
7.) Titans
8.) Supergirl
===========
9.) Iron Fist
The first three are legitimately good. The rest have their moments but are too inconsistent to be called "quality" IMO. Jessica Jones is in a weird tier by itself because it's first season was great but its second was middling. Iron Fist is on its own because it was garbage, at least the first season. I haven't seen enough of Punisher to give it a ranking. I watched Legends and didn't hate myself so that show might have actually improved. If it keeps the quality I saw in the first episode of the new season I'd go ahead and put it in the top tier, shockingly enough. I haven't seen Runaways or Cloak and Dagger yet.
Titans is still weird, it might grow on me a bit more. It's certainly no worse than Flash or Arrow, and better than Supergirl. Supergirl only narrowly dodges being down with Iron Fist because it's clear the showrunners are aware they're writing a comic book show and lean into it. Scott Buck wanted to write something else.
The Gifted, Agents of Shield, and Gotham can get bent. I'm sorry I tried, but honestly the novelty in stuff like that is them existing in tandem with the big characters they exist in the peripheral of. Batman's got sixty comics so GCPD is interesting because it's a novelty. The Superheroes are everywhere so seeing what SHIELD gets up to is a curiosity worth satisfying. But when Batman's nowhere to be found on the small or big screen and the Agent Coulson has more screen time than Tony Stark it's all out of wack.
Is it? Coates has always been the antithesis of exciting in whatever he writes. The concept sounds like it could be fun but I worry the execution will be flat like everything else he's written.
