>shiny buns

It's so fucking funny JMS totally uprooted and undid everything Wonder Woman to "rebuild", left after 5 issues, and then DC blew it all up.

shame we can't see Booster's shiny gold ass next to Nate's

that's the magic of JMS at that period! Whiny walk-off, it seems.

why can't we have nice things?

...

>Rex Ogle
What a name.

I know, right? That's a pornstar name if ever I saw one.

...

Friendly reminder that the best Creature Commandos story is the Flashpoint one and not even the writer himself could replicate its surprising quality.

whoops

what's out this week?

How was Agents of S.H.A.D.E.?

Not as good as the Flashpoint mini, just okay.

...

now why is this rando new dude so calm

Pretty okay.
Wanted to have more hi-octane action than it actually did.

...

Deathstroke, WW, New Super-Man, Supergirl, RHATO, third-to-last Earth 2 Society.

Foolkiller too.

What sex position are Booster and RR in?

Anyone following the Golden Globes tonight?

All I ever read of Frankenstein was Seven Soldiers. I always meant to take a look at the S.H.A.D.E. book.

LIVE A POEM~

oh man, that's a sassy pose

If you do, stop at the penultimate issue.

It serves as a grand finale.

The real last issue was just a contracted one-off.

>Draw white people
>Call them Hispanic
Only Kid Nova can get away with that since his mom and sister are caramel.

couldn't pay me to watch Fallon

The Catherine Wheel?

...

I love the bat dude's design.

Hal & Pals, Mr. Stroke, Nicola's last WW, New Super-man best boy

Read the Flashpoint mini first.

This beauty.

IT WAS MEEEE

>third-to-last Earth 2 Society
the beast is almost dead!

that's a pretty rad cover

This is the same guy who did Siegfried?

I expect a recap of "what actually happened in Rucka/Scott's Dream Comic" when it's over

Next issue of Stray Bullets.

The Ballad of Orson and Beth just won't end

that was Alex Alice

I hope Kubo gets something here if it's not gonna at the Oscars. That was the best animated movie I saw on release in a long, long time.

And "Nick Spencer's Further Twitter Slapfight Adventures" has led to gems of arguments like

>It's obvious the only reason why that team [Legend of WW] was booted was because women are held to a much higher standard

No shit, flamewars with fans are different than talking shit about other writers/your company's products.

The last of the Azzarello Hellblazer TPB's is coming out, so we can get to the Carey stuff now

Nah, but it's got that kinda vibe, don't it?

The fucking Hulk

This is pure assumption, but I also find it hard to believe they were 100% reliable with DC given the provably large amount of irresponsibility/fucking around on commissions they had.

Dillon should keep quiet

The DC spokesperson told the Guardian that though “we loved the book and we were very excited to work on the collected volume”, the studio was concerned about Dillon’s public comments about other teams at DC on social media.

Right, unknowable but possible. I'm just rolling my eyes--HARD--at the false equivalencies given out on some threads. Also the attempt to make things parse as "*I* am just being honest if direct about things, *you* are an abusive bully."

Did Flintstones come out already? Did I miss a storytime?

Flintstones came out last week

last week

Ugh, there was one very dedicated dude here yesterday who complained about misandry for literally three hours straight when I storytimed part two of Clean Room. He even replied to himself and got called out by the other person in the thread with me (since the poster count didn't change). I think he switched to his cell phone for backup half way through

LOLOLOL

I need to catch up on that because I don't like horror but I find $cientology fascinating

Book 2 RIP

Shit, I've got to go find that.

I don't understand why the Nick Spencer thing is still a thing, really. Like the reaction to the actual twist was plainly ridiculous, but now people are pointing to the SJW thing in a different book as like "proof I was right to hope out on it". I thought the whole thing was because of his behaviour, i.e. 'I expect the writer I am directly talking to to behave better than me'

Yeah, we're not going to see reprints for a long, long time.

It's because he's still getting into stupid fucking fights on twitter, and he looks for them and he needs to not, but people also expect to be able to unload on/about him at will and not get him up in their business, which is probably not the case.

RIP black king with the unpronounceable name who seemed like a pretty decent dude

I didn't realise we were moving to Evely so quickly, I always forget about double-shipping. That's a treat. I might have to try picking it up again for a few issues and see if Rucka's done with his clean-up yet.

Oh wel..

yeah I'll be shocked if they don't cancel vol 2

I hope they don't cancel vol 1 I still kinda want the Emerald Dawn reprints

If you want a bit of a laugh, the thread is:
He was really pissed off that it 1)Did not contain a man as the primary protagonist 2)Men followed orders issued by women. When a man followed a man's orders, it "didnt count cause he's gay."

Kara, honey, we all knew you poured a glass to celebrate when you heard Magog was gone

Is that last panel /d/?

It must suck to be the one reasonable guy at a secret super spy agency.

Wait, that's Ivo?

say good user do you have a nice DL for the whole thing? So I can tablet that shit up in a nice warm chair?

First time Chronological order

JLI Peej was something else

wow, that's pathetic

I really gotta catch up on Clean Room, sounds like some top notch fucked up Simone stuff

Eh like with Slott thing, if you're not tagged you really shouldn't get involved. I see Jeremy Whitley does the same thing btw.

IIRC Nick Spencer had a rep for starting fights on the Marvel/Bendis forums though, so nothing new from him.

I'm scared this will affect the future of reprintings of Justice League International and spinoffs.

>future of reprintings of Justice League International and spinoffs
as if DC had plans to do that anyway

I think the low Vertigo sales have really hurt it. It's kinda folded into these 6 issue arcs? But about the middle of the second one it starts having to speed up, and that's really noticeable in the last few issues as well.

I could see it having been great across 30 - 40 issues.

Whitley namesearches? Do you have an example of him hopping in?

It's tough, because I forex remember the case where the Peter Grant author hopped in to basically say "No, really, that reading is wrong" in a discussion about his books where the reading made an aspect come across as deeply sexist (IIRC?) and people blew up at him badly. But from his perspective, it was his reputation on the line.

>That last panel

Remember when the pedo revealed that diet soda was making her a bitch?

That's a shame, it's too bad they can't really keep long running stuff going at Vertigo anymore

awwww, shit

Nice man torso, Karen.

it's okay for that to be your kink, user

Uploading, give it five minutes to finish.

Post-Giffen/DeMatteis JLI/JLE isn't that good, anyway.

I guess no, not of him searching his name. Some user mentioned they had been tweeting about disliking Wasp and Whitley had messaged them directly to explain why they were wrong. They didn't post it though, so.

He did spotlight a lot of stuff after release, but that was obviously the positive stuff.

you are a scholar and a gentleman(?)

Ooooh. You wouldn't happen to have a desu to that comment?

A particular problem is IMO when you speed up horror you risk parody, and it's hard to come back from that. One particular page from the last Clean Room has probably ruined me for the book.

A retcon?

Thanks Texas, I was just trying zippy for the first time a second ago. Uploading isn't that great in Canada.
The latest issue (15) is really weird in that context, since it is unrelated to the main plot. The series will probably end at 18, which is a shame, but at least we got three trades out of it

To be fair I don't know how vitriolic user's tweet was, kinda need context.

remember when Nate would pay for a beating like this by being all banged up when not metal?

COME TO THINK OF IT: Plastique, when they're in the jungle, thinks he's just mortal/vulnerable when not metal. But is he really?

Also screencap from later in the same thread, kek

LOL

:(

Is there a reason why Supes and PG wouldn't be evenly matched? I always figured them and Supergirl were the same power level since they owe everything to being Kryptonian (as opposed to say SBP's armor or Superdad being weaker than Superbro for whatever reason they gave).

That would make me block him SO FAST.

This got pushed back to new 52, didn't it?

Man, speaking of the pedo, Waid is on full denial mode about that. It's kind of sad.

He's just uncovering the conspiracy.

Isn't there a story behind that piece of artwork? Like it was made years earlier but was finally used when the N52 came around? Were people aware of the reboot by this point in JL GL?

That is sad, and not what I'd expect from him. Were they friends?

And without Reeder.
