What is, RED CROW's endgame here and where will, Catcher go next?
Who knows...
I love this comicbook so much.
SHUNKA, is that guy and despite his cookiness and stomach-slicing tendencies, I will be sad to see him go.
6 more issues left; rather depressing.

MARVEL POINT ONE
Not gonna front, folks.
The only story I even felt a wee bit was THE PHOENIX one.
Even then, the potential ALTERNATE DIMENSION ASPECT kind of nauseated me. Plus, Jeph Loeb writes clunky dialog.
The rest was pure filler!
I will steer clear of SPIDER-MAN WHACK and stupid looking AOA.

BATMAN #3
OWLS are awesome. I learned so much about them this issue and I feel that I need to state the obvious...OWLS are fucking awesometacular!
BRUCEY BRUCE, is due for a thorough beatdown. THE COURT, def don't play!
DA SNYPER, continues to outbeast, THE GOD here.
Ridiculously dope and tight.

Buck, is back and whenever there is a collage featuring, James you can guarantee firey flames and immense levels of heat!
I really enjoyed this comic if for no other reason that I feel, FRACTION deaded a super interesting character, in a dumb and wasteful fashion.
And let's face it, BUCK all WINTER SOLDIERed-up makes for BADASS COMICS.
Fury, is cool and I am ready to see more spy shit.
BRUDAWG, you crazy for this one.

FEAR ITSLEF 7.2
Why can't you remember who, THOR is?
ASGARDIA rises and the ALL-MOTHERS take up residence, whilst presiding over the 9 Realms.
Ill fucking comic!
I have always dug THOR but now I am amped up for what should be an epic tale.
The mystery is enveloping my brain.
So good!

(KIND OF) THOR #8
The momentum continues to rush through the cosmos.
Damn, B! Who would have thought that the boring GALACTUS ARC would take root across so many storylines? Not eyes!
FRACKY, went all KIRBY!
REAL THOR, fell through his cosmic wound and something bizarre is going on with, TANARUS.
OH SHIT!
He is, ULIK THE TROLL?!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Mad conflict and drama.
What happens next?
Don't know BUT I am tuned in for the long haul.

he's like Garhart!! JUST KIDDING G!!

i'm looking forward to Thor fighting physically on the metaphysical plain.

i can't clap to return of Bucky, though. it was a cheap tactic to kill him off so callously and bring him back so immediately.

Please share.

BACKGROUND: Each December, members of the Prep-Time Posse organize and execute the world's greatest gift exchange via mail and the interwebs.

WHO MAY PARTICIPATE: Anyone with a fondness for comics or comic type stuff. You don't have to be an active, posting member of PtP to participate. For example, last year I drew JR's sister as my recipient.

INCLUDING MY MOM? Dude, your mom ALWAYS participates.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE: Hit me up with an inbox that contains your government name, mailing address, and a brief statement of what comics you like by Wednesday, November 30th. On Thursday, December 1st, you will receive the name, login, and mailing address of the person you need to send a gift. Please send out all gifts by December 15th, 2011.

WHAT SHOULD GIFTS BE: One, gifts should be relatively cheap. I got a kick ass Secret Satan package from JR last year filled with BAD ASS, TOTEMS, he had lying around the house. By far the best Secret Satan I ever sent was the "How the Hulk Saved Christmas" picture book I made for buskshot. There's absolutely no reason for anyone to spend more than 20 bucks including mailing, and the best gifts will probably cost less than that.

Second, gifts should try to reflect your recipients comics interests, but you can take that broadly. If your person says that they really like XMen, and you see a cool team up manga book at your local retailed for 2 bucks, I say GO FOR IT.

Third, all gifts should come with BAD ASS TOTEMS.

BAD ASS TOTEMS? You are perceptive. For the first time this year, PtP is proud to introduce JR'S BAD ASS TOTEM EXCHANGE. I am highly recommending that, in addition to your gift, you take something from around your house and put it in the package. It should be something that you thought was cool when you got it but now you think is just taking up space. It should be cheap.

This was inspired by JR's package from last year, which was made up ENTIRELY of BAD ASS TOTEMS like an old Brainiac miniature, a New Belgium postcard/beer coaster, a 1970s paperback on karate kicks, an old graf magazine, and something I'm not going to tell you about, because it is going to be one of my BAD ASS TOTEMS for this year. It's so cool, I need to pass on the love for another year.

I don't know, I thought it would be a cool little tradition to start if we start these totems that we can then "re gift" each year. It'd give us something to talk about--"oh man, you have the karate book this year? THAT THING IS AWESOME!!" It also allows us to really, truly learn how freaky we all are (but seriously dough, keep it PG 13, fam.)

So inbox (B. SHELLY) to join, fools!! PtP: We Run This, YES!

them creepy ass OWL dudes gave me nightmares.

Any guess as to who, Talon is?

The Dollmaker and the Guild of Extraordinary Owls.

But no guess on Talon...but I trust in Snyder. Shit has a nice creepy vibe to it.

i'm liking most of the batman Corporation arcs.

Binlahab is a bitch.
I wouldn't trust okp, some of them don't even get any anymore since the Re's stopped - Anonymous OKP

you may feel like you've read this one before - there is a similarity to Clowes's books, but it's almost more in the overall vibe than in plotting or character development.

At any rate, if you like Clowes and/or have ever been depressed and then met someone you really liked almost instantly, then this book is for you.

Fact.

this issue was about 2/3 historical (I'm assuming, I know not much about N. Tesla... which reminds me, it would be wicked to see a RASL/SHIELD crossover!) info on Tesla, though it was unclear whether he was talking about 'this world's' Tesla or the other one esp. at first. Anyhow Smith does a plausible job of sounding scientific enough but it's kinda maddening how little we know about the main character. Or maybe I just forgot it all b/c it takes 3 or 4 months for each issue to come out.

Not that that's a complaint, exactly... still really enjoying the book and looking forward to the next installment.

Where did Armor go?

Last I recall was in Astonishing and they were visiting her families funeral and she came back.

after that....*POOF*.

I saw some breakdown of who went where and she was with Logan. Which makes sense, 'cause he's always been written as her mentor.

MY SATANIC WHISPERER IS GETTING HOOKED UP!

I'm taking the Satan part of Secret Satan to heart as I fully expect my person to shred, burn, and scatter the ashes of what I'm sending them all over whatever body of water is nearest them.

Spaceman - copped on the strength of buck/shellz/etc. and that $1 price tag. Certainly worth $1. Ongoing coppage may depend on price point. I do like the way they build their world, complete with dialogue (reminiscent of DKR). Just the hint of backstory we get is enough for a #1, and the shit hitting the fan at the end is alright too. B

Scalped - jeezus. This seems to be going all over the place, in a good way. No clue what the last couple issues have in store for us. Red Crow = Luthor. Maybe. Dash = the Question? or dude from Sleeper. A

Unwritten 31.5 - very nice to get an abbreviated history of the Unwritten cabal and their pattern of suppress/coopt. Makes me want to read up a little extra history. Loved the varied artwork, esp. the Spanish-American War bit. A

iZombie - not bad, not bad. Another new character, crazy. Disappointed Gwen's new memory is only partly there. Still loving it though. A

I, Vampire #3 - okay, more like it after the completely unnecessary #2. Our Hero assembles his team. The plot is still actually stuck where it was at the end of #1, but consider this one character development, I guess. I'm getting a kick out of the DCU setting for this - 'Justice League investigate' etc. on the TV scrolls - and the trip to Gotham should be interesting, though why Gotham/Constantine remains to be seen and could make or break the next issue.

The KARNOW blasting was crazy.
The reveal as to who blasted him was even more insane.
I liked how the art spoke the dialog this issue.
SHUNKA, was great too.
I was a little suprised at all the jail stuff BUT it was shocking in a great way!

IZOMBIE continues to be flames. ROBERSON, is doing an excellent job of handling such a huge cast.
The gay PHANTOM brother is awesome. Spot, was hilarious in those scenes as well.
Ellie The Ghost, is my favorite character.

http://kerrycallen.blogspot.com/2011/10/animated-comic-covers.html


I don't know *exactly* what it is but there's something about browsing old school comic covers that makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. Reminds me of Sunday mornings at the flea market looking through stacks of Solo Avengers and Marvel Team-Up and all those other oft-discarded series from the 70s and 80s. You hardly ever saw a good Batman or Detective or Avengers in those places.

Hold onto your ballsac: http://powercomics.tumblr.com/

Oh, and those animated covers are super cool!

maybe it was just that i was REAL disappointed with the art on FF 12

The panel layouts were kinda weird and the kids did on occasion resemble langoliers but there were some quirks that I actually liked about it. Anyway, as far as HICKDAWG's workload was concerned, I'm actually considering picking up both FF books at this point. I think he's gonna pull it off.

Totally not what I was expecting out of this book, but it's really compelling stuff, whatever it is. Future noir, I guess? I'm even growing accustomed to the Pootie Tang speak. And the art and coloring are just devastatingly good to me.

Fuck!
Cannot access this link.

But there was one little scene in which I actually couldn't tell what was going on. If it was truly as confusing as I think it was, you'll know the one I'm talking about. And if it wasn't, then you won't, and I'll just have to re-read it when I'm not taking cold medication.

Otherwise, good stuff. Sinister is such a freak and I love his puffy shirt steampunk aesthetic here. Far as I can recall he was always one of those "lurking in the shadows" subplot villains in the X arcs I read as a kid, so it's neat seeing him taking center stage.

http://talestosuffice.com/
@kennykeil

Sinister, is dope. The evolution angle is awesome. And space gods. Awful editing though.
I like this team allot and the stakes are high.
A-

What's good with this Top Cow: Pilot Season business? The only one I've ever read was that Jason Aaron "Ripclaw" joint from years ago, and I don't think they ever made any more of them. But I guess that's what happens with "Pilot Season", isn't it.

Anyway - I picked up "The Theory of Everything" this week, evidently so you don't have to. The title caught my eye, the premise pulled me in. Not that inter-dimensional travel is a new concept to fiction or even comics, but a book that made that its primary focus doesn't come around all that often. As I've mentioned a couple times these past few months, I got a sweet tooth for some mind bending sci-fi shit in my comics, and I was hoping this was that. It was not! Art was okay, story fumbled on just about every level. I don't want to even get into all the plot holes, but I COULD get into them if I wanted to, physically I mean, because they were gaping.

D-

On a side note, what are some of your favorite sci-fi comics of all time?

-----------------------------
http://talestosuffice.com/
@kennykeil

also a non-winner. Hopefully it's worth a few dollars now, since that was before he became Da Nu God.

Hmmm... there's a signed one on eBay for $4.99. So, guess not.


>On a side note, what are some of your favorite sci-fi comics
>of all time?

Hmmmmm.

Dunno... never really thought of sci-fi as a separate genre for comics since it ties into regular superherodom so easily. I'll think about it though.

GJ said they were gonna do it, but it was gonna be with the real big 7 and not on this reboot shit
way he told it was that Big Rao, The God and Dirty Di would be asking niggas to join to get the real shit back in effect and when they went to him he'd be on some 'oh yeah no doubt, I'll lead the team no problem there' and they look at one another like 'th fuck?'
then the next scene is him banging the gavel at the first meeting

It reads very much like a mediocre super hero flick, and while it doesn't live up to its full potential I can't ignore the fact that it's a lot better than most JL books I've read. At least it isn't boring.
