It's amazing how you hear the WAAAAGH every time.

Hey OP!

Mitch Gerads liked a tweet I made sarcastically comparing Mister Miracle to Identity Crisis. I hope he thought it was genuine praise, cause I've liked his art all things considered.

Clearly we are not yet in the era of "Cleveland Rocks"

It is the perfect SFX

Now I wanna go through Injustice and edit all the NAARGHs to WAAAAGHs

what's out tomorrow?

how about solicits?

Hello, Storyteller.

It's a good thing Samus Returns hype is still fresh, because absolutely nothing comic related seems at all interesting at the moment. Although, it is kind of obnoxious to put up with all these people who insist that a game about exploration should be frenetic and fast paced. Because that makes hella sense!

The Wild Storm and Bug! are back.

I long to curl up with a cup of hot chocolate and read a book this evening and go to bed early, honestly

>I don't even believe in me, anymore

Howard without the existentialism is doomed to failure

Image has started doing the "new #1's!" of old series thing.

Marvel was just kind of sad. Two issues of Doctor Strange in a month is bugging me because it's already at the 28K range, and doubleshipping at $4 is going to hurt

Witchblade looks okay, even though someone had a point that they could have started with a clean slate since it's ticking off all of the old boxes.

This was going around today which I found kind of interesting, where someone goes in on Hanselmann in IMO a not-unfair way:

amazingcavalieri.blogspot.co.nz/2017/09/portrait-comic-by-simon-hanselmann.html

You're at a high level of wank when you have critics talking about critics, but those DMs don't make anyone look good.

DNA Legion, Mr Miracle, and Nocenti/JrJr Daredevil trades.

Clint showing up in Hawkeye which should be fun, I liked the generations one shot. There was other good stuff I think but I forgot

Hey OP.
A shitpost here in Sup Forums reminded me of WoW and now I'm pretty tempted to check the game out again, mostly out of nostalgia's sake (I haven't played in like 8 years)

3 of the 4 were " holiday specials" so I don't think that counts.

>Image has started doing the "new #1's!" of old series thing.
lol, "remember me as you pass by"

>how about solicits?
dull all around

although Moon Knight and The Platoon both sound good, two books is a record for me lately regarding Marvel

Wow I didn't expect to relate this much to Garko, the Man-Frog.

That article made me realize I don't follow indie comics like at ALL

christ, that guy is an asshole

the blogger, I mean Simon's got his own issues, but the blogger is why I avoid indie circles

When was the last time Bitch Planet had two or more issues back to back

Howard knows that the One True Weapon is indeed the motherfucking NAIL BAT

Sorry, also, that *girl* is an asshole.

1 and 2?

I don't really mind them from what I've read, but I don't know the history?

gay

continuous low level of irritation/smugness that might be your jam but ain't mine, nothing morally offensive

So indie comic bloggers

Fair enough. Doesn't bother me with them, no, whereas like reading WWAC's head girl makes me want to claw my own skin off.

also the piece on Nicky's political past which I thought was pretty cheap

They're a niche audience instead an already tiny niche audience. Sometimes the comment sections on TCJ are fun to read, people will fucking throw down for days over something like reprints of obscure Golden Age comics.

Ha, I tried to look this up, and even comicsbeat kind of gave up. The haven't done their Image monthly update since May, but here's what they have in April:
BITCH PLANET ($3.99)

>Pretty much the exemplar of the adverse effects of an irregular shipping schedule on issue sales. 14K is still a good number for an Image series, and the collected editions are doing quite well, so no worries. But with a more regular schedule, Bitch Planet might have been a Saga-level success.

>This is the end of the second story arc; next up is an anthology series, during which maybe the regular creative team will get a few issues in the bag for a more regular schedule?
Also:
June Bitch Planet Triple Feature 1 15,528
July Bitch Planet Triple Feature 2 10,114
August Bitch Planet Triple Feature 3 9,305
So these three actually, but they are anthologies, so who knows

Oh, now that's a different level of looking-down-nose

the best was when she got into it with Horrocks about Cho

tcj has/ or least used to have good stuff

lmao

What is KSD or the artist doing?

Dylan Horrocks? the dude who quit writing for the Big 2 after what they did to Steph?
he's a man with my full respect

that's kind of sad

weren't people getting Bitch Planet tattoos after the first issue or two? wonder if they're still into it

no, Sarah, idiosyncratic critic/artist

...

Probably. Hell the NON-COMPLIANT tattoos might be the most lasting thing about it.

I think those might have shifted to trade waiting, in any case.

they're real thick and blocky, probably a lot of fun to try to rework into something else once the thrill fades

>a vampire cow
... COMIC BOOKS.

...

I guess with this one, the weird behaviours of indie comics people are kind of what I'm there for and there's a self-admittance of fault /obsession in those articles, to some extent? The big two stuff is waaay more holier-than-thou but I'm not really interested in that from them.

They should've been getting Pretty Deadly tattoos instead.

If you would get a comic tattoo, what'd it be?
And that's open for all those in this thread.

I mean a lot of them probably are because they like KSD as a writer, not just the series.
It's just KSD doesn't care about writing comics anymore in a timely matter I guess?

This vampire legit did nothing wrong, would you rather he had killed a human?

Fucking truth.

Love live the legion in interlac

Hell, what's Fraction up to? Did Sex Criminals ever start again?

Okay, I can see that

If only there were still fandom_wank, lol

I guess the only comparable thing right now is Sabrina, and we know RAS has been busy with TV. All in all I find it hard to believe an issue of BP is that fucking hard to write for a professional

The cat from King City, it's the comic that got me into comics .

Superman's symbol from Action #1.

So if he had eaten the cow...would he have become a vampire?

probably something basic like a GL logo

maybe a Shaner Hal if I was feeling more adventurous/found a really good tattoo artist

Love the cape.

...

Obviously I would get DAMAGED in cursive script on my forehead.

Wow, these are all really good.
I'd probably get Orion's eclipse helmet logo.

maybe just a LoSH L, nothing too big

lmao

This is so Gerber--sick comedy and pathos all knotted up together

;___;

I'm looking at fandom_wank on the fanlore wiki and it looks like some fucking rabbit hole.

I hope that guy who said he was getting a wheel of Kirby heads posts a picture when he gets it done

comic vine says
Feb-May 2017 and august 2017 were the last few issues and that a trade came out this month or something

Oh yes!
I remember those posts. I hope he does too. That would be cool.

that's...breaking

>this entire fucking page
The fuck am I reading, and why is it making me laugh like a goddamn idiot?

Heyheyhey.

I read these when Texas ran them, so It's mostly chitchat from me for this bit.

The X-Statix symbol, or maybe, since I'm working towards writing my own comics, I'll go the Brandon Graham route and tattoo myself something from my opus (?).

Are cigar stores still a thing? I'm like a million miles away from anything.

Oh grasshopper, it was quite a thing before it imploded under the righteous sniff of "That's not funny!" instead of the point and mock.

>that Cap pull quote

Yeah, there's a few not too high-end ones in NYC

If he's gone from comics to try tv/movies maybe that means Fábio Moon and Gabriel Bá are free to do something besides Cassanova.

No idea desu. Still have to find that comic that ruins me enough I'd want to have it on me. Maybe I'd just commission something from an artist I like the style of.

>Cleveland as a fantasy kingdom ruled over by demon wizards

I would play a druid in such a campaign setting.

yeah

there's one next to my favorite Indian restaurant that I have no idea how it's still in business, I think a handful of regulars support the entire thing

AND NOW back to the ongoing

Yeah, I was talking to my dad about one in a weird location (not in an upscale part of town, not near a mall or anything) like a month ago.

l-lewd

fuck I haven't had Indian food I didn't make in ages

maybe...maybe Friday will be BIRYANI DAY

whenever I make Indian it seems really bland and I'm not sure how to improve it so I just shell out for the restaurant whenever I have a coupon or something

biryani day is a good decision

I'd probably be pretentious and moronic about it. It would have to be some indie or classic work that profoundly touched me and I'll probably get a tattoo on my shoulder. I'll also think this tattoo and its original are a good story to tell but people will just think I'm a weirdo.

The Thor one is pretty great too. That really is fucking #relatable

I can get it up to decent but never to that level where it's genuinely interesting and I know on one dish it's probably because I skim on the heavy cream and butter, but

All my biryani attempts have been total shit, so I am happy to pay someone for it. I may try plov again, though, I know what I did wrong when I tried once

>Howard knows that the One True Weapon is indeed the motherfucking NAIL BAT

Howard is fool. Soon he'll have a bigger board and a bigger nail and soon enough he'll have doomed himself!

Howard the Duckling, cute

Ugh you can really tell the days are getting shorter now

And now Sociology with Prof. Gerber

I'm the same senpai. I just can't think of the one I'd actually get.

I'll just be predictable, and say I'd get a Wonder Woman logo. Probably on the shoulder. The Metroid logo goes on the other one.

Never get a tattoo of an untested property. It's likely to be more permanent that the thing it's based on.

>getting a girly tattoo
Haha what a faggot

...

Indian here, you can't really make that kind of food because of mainly the spices but also westerns approach to cooking on fundamental level.

Hopping by for a second, but I have a question about endings.
JSA-anons, what are your favourite endings? What ending disappointed you?

...

Hi cranky.

Knife > Bat

Ex Machina's ending is fucking garbage. Literally nothing is resolved and the entire thing devolves into misery porn for some bizarre reason.

Arashikage Trigram, maybe? It makes a good tattoo.
