There's gonna be a issue where they kill the "justice league" isn't there? Hickman you cheeky fuck

Oh man. Oh man. Just wait.

 

[TheKaeptain]

Doesn't Geoff Johns own a comic shop in LA?

You go to Geoff Johns shop? That's kick ass.

I go to both of his.

 

[Future Foundation]

I go to both of his.

Does he own two? I know about Earth-2 but that's it.

There are two Earth-2 shops.

Justice League #40 was a pretty awesome setup.

Spoiler

have we had anything about Darkseid's daughter before? Seems familiar

I haven't read JL in a loooong time, but this piqued my interest.

Spoiler

Google image search reveals that DC apparently Rule 63'd Darkseid. XD

 

[Spike Spiegel]

 

[BuddyJoeHooker]

Basically yes.

Man that run was so good. I think I'm gonna re-read all of Hickman's Marvel stuff before Secret Wars #1 hits

edit: FF, Fantastic Four, Secret Warriors, New Avengers, Avengers, Infinity, what am I missing?

Ultimate Comics Ultimates 1-12

and Ultimate Hawkeye

 

[echoshifting]

Ultimate Comics Ultimates 1-12

Gonna have to skip that. Gonna have to skip a couple things, looks like. I did the math and I claimed I was going to read roughly twenty Hickman comics a day. Nnnnope

So that is what it is like to stare into the abyss.

Oh snap batman earth one vol 2 is coming out next week. Sweet

No. Not they.

 

[Poodlestrike]

Just read though Endgame. Fantastic ride. Snyder's horror chops really shone through here, especially in the backup stories and the annual. Dude does an amazing Joker story, and I'm in for the ride. Bring on Appleseed Batman!

Also, I agree with the theory that

Spoiler

the boy and the guy on crutches was Bruce and Damian.

 

[Schweinehund]

Thought the Grand Society was a stand in for JL

Spoiler

and Dr. Strange already obliterated them.

Really need to dig into Marvel sometime. I just have so much other DC stuff like Suicide Squad, Secret Six, Young Justice, John's GL/Flash, Mark Waid's Flash, Batman Eternal, current GL, Batwoman + more on my plate first.

When you read Batwoman, please, please stop after you finish the Blackman / Williams run. It's for your own good.

I am getting more and more selective so I'll probably do that. With that though now I'm considering getting a hold of Batgirl with Cassandra Cain >_>.

Here is a Spoiler heavy interview with Snyder and Capullo about the future of the series and the fate of some characters.

Also Snyder liked Superior Spider-Man whaaaaaaa

Batman 40 -> Mutliversity 2 -> Deadly Class 11

This is a fucking great comics day. And I still have Silver Surfer and Bitch Planet and Secret Avengers to read.

The pool of blood being shaped like a cracked heart was one of the least subtle things I've seen in a while. It's not as bad as the hawk-eye thing, but it's close

Don't think it's meant to be subtle--just some excellent imagery. This issue's all about beating you over the fucking head in absurd ways, and it works.

 

[Rhaknar]

And done with Avengers A.I.

Great little series, a bit on the short side (12 issues) but it's 1 arc so it feels like enough. Would love to see more from doombot but I fear we'll never seen him again.

Yo, Kipp and I have been having secret Mountain Goats meetings behind Comics-gaf's back: Official Unofficial Mountain Goats thread.

Come join us.

THIS cannot be stated strongly enough. Take it from someone who read a day owns it all.

 

[Rhaknar]

So Venom just shows up with Drax out of the blue in Guardians #14?

I guess it was explained in his book?

Batman #40 got me all shook up.
It took a few moments for me to settle on what just happened.

 

[ElNarez]

I just had a revelation regarding the Gentry and all of that, holy fuck

Not sure what to go with next month

I also made a silk one but since the title is in the top left it came out terrible. -__-

One of those looks like Spider-man is reading lewd comics. Would he do that?

So yes

Parker Luck's one hell of a thing man. Also all the swinging around on webs gotta give him some thoughts about suspension bondage.

I don't tweet or anything, but that's worth turning into a post. Good stuff.

I seriously want more comic-gaf to join us at this Mountain Goats concert in LA. It's going to be weirdly amazing.

Also, just go for a solid drive and rip through the album. But make sure you leave Choked Out on repeat four times or so. It's such an excellent album.

He does whatever a spider can.

 

[KoruptData]

Finally read another comic, that being Justice League and it was hype! This has all the makings to be an epic story.

 

[frye]

also speaking of music, this is the song Vladimir is singing/playing at the beginning of this week's Secret Avengers.

 

[PsychBat!]

Ouch, stick to the drawing table JRJR. Superman 40 was kinda bad. It would be a better comic as a silent comic as his scripting and choice of words is not in character at all.

 

[Owzers]

I'm starting to judge comics based on how many pages would make good wallpaper on my ipad. I have not been amused lately and Ant-Man #3 has changed nothing, i didn't see a single page that stood out.

[ElNarez]

Another thing I realized is that Batman #40 is the most elegant answer to the question "Why the heck does Batman not kill the Joker?", and that answer is "because that's not what he fucking does and you're incredibly dense for even bringing it up"

 

[Owzers]

Is it so wrong to want at least one page per issue to be inventive and funny and just the slightest bit lewd in order to give your ipad the wallpaper it deserves and not some apple logo or cat chasing a butterfly? No, it's not wrong, I answered that for you all because i didn't want to take any chances.

 

[Rhaknar]

Oh... Stephen. That's not cool

Everything dies

Edit: these issues with the "justice league" (they actually had a name but I forget what it was) were amazing. Hickman gives the big decision

to use the nuke

incredible gravitas even tho we are used to death being meaningless in comics. Great stuff, the man is truly a mad genius

 

[ReAxion]

This is crazy. I'm trying to redeem my code for Inhuman #14 and it's saying the code is for Darth Vader #3.

What is the email for the guy who fixes this again? Someone's posted it here before. (not the normal support email that nobody answers)

Send me a PN, then I remember to look after it when I am at home.

 

[Busaiku]

Was anyone else's copy of Sunstone a mess?
Words were poorly scanned, making it a bit harder to read a bunch of stuff. There were bad marks on some pages (nothing too obtrusive, just irks me).

1st book was good.
Maybe it's just my copy that sucks...

 

[Rhaknar]

Illuminati playing hot potato with the trigger was horribly funny. Between the general "fuck THAT I'm not doing it" and Strange going "really dude? It's not enough that I just

summoned some nightmarish cthulhu monster that murdered a bunch of people, now you want me to murder a few billion more

? Fuck you Reed", it was a great scene. The outcome was super predictable but still enjoyable.
