ouch

I know the man’s a goat licker but that’s pretty harsh Mr Morrison

Took out the picture since it’s big, but hahahah. This is so true. Seeing Liefeld’s art today makes me cringe even though I don’t remember having a big problem with it back in the 90s when I was a kid. I’m really not sure what it is. CBR had another Liefeld image in their Twitter art post for the 52 Reboot and it was just terrible. Some guy in a gray suit in a chair…?

Snyder is on the main Batman book? Hmm, tempted to give it a try now.

Anyone who hasnt read it, it is now mandatory for you ALL to get the three Flashpoint Batman issues. SOOOO good, words cannot describe that work of art.

Probably the best new comic I read this year, hands down.

Batman Inc. this week - OH DAMN! Awesome issue! Virtual reality looking Shuma-Gorath thing in the HIZOUSE! Morrison’s playing MvC3 on the low word! :rofl:

Called early and had TMNT and Batman, Inc tossed into my folder to be safe. Also exchanging comic doubles I got by accident for what I wanted.

Batman, Inc. #8 and Superman Beyond #0 were claimed by me.

Can anyone tell me wihen the next Batman Beyond issue drops, and if the #0 SB issue is to test the waters for a series?

Well that wraps it up for Gates of Gotham

damn I loved this mini. really makes me hopeful things to come with Snyder and Higgins. He did alright by Cassandra Cain and that means he’s a-ok in my book. and damn I loved the art

Finished reading the Batman Arkham City mini. Pretty good story and artwork to match, but you can probably skip this comic altogether and jump right into the Arkham City video game with no real problems. Which was probably done intentionally to be fair.

Anyway Robin showed up in it and… I really haven’t been keeping up with the game and stuff but he had blonde hair? Who the hell is that supposed to be? OG blonde Jason Todd?

Don’t get me wrong Arkham Asylum is a great game but my biggest gripe with it is the character designs suck and it looks like I’m not going to like them in Arkham City either. The only character that looked good in Arkham Asylum was Joker because they pretty much left him alone. I just wish they did the same for everybody. None of the designs were broke and none of them needed fixing. I’m still getting Arkham City but I wish the character designs, particularly the costumes were better. Catwoman looks good in the new game, but once again they left her design alone for the most part.

Well if it is Tim Drake Robin in Arkham City I guess dying your hair blonde is one way to hide your secret identity…

Justice League 90s Retrospective was hilarious and great. It was written by Keith, J M DeMatties with beautiful art by Kevin Maguire.
If you’re looking for a good laugh definetly pick this up.
Sigh Giffen era JL is best JL (even if they don’t have Aquaman)

Im quoting and checking it out tonight, when I pick up my copy for JL. I was also planning to to grab the 1-5 issue today of flashpoint. i wanted to wait till its finish.

Good luck, I am still waiting on Flashpoint issue #2 and #4, along with FF #2. Diamond is being dicks lately since they are the only large distribution of comics, they set things at their own pace.

soo, ma and pa kent are gone for the relaunch? I dunno guys but I liked Byrne’s first 5 Man of Steel back in the 80s

Got my copy of JL#1 tonight at a midnight release. So far # 1 is going on a good start. They even had a raffle for the 25$ variant cover, I got that amazing luck lol.
I also picked up 1-5 flashpoint. The moment I saw zoom on the front cover for #5 had to get it.

@flashpoint - Ah I get it now lol.

I dont see the point of a midnight comic release, what a dumb idea. Especially when said comic is like 30 pages and resolves nothing. Even for DVD/BD releases it boggles my mind.

Games are cool though.

First issue of JL was a good read.

Cyborg starting out as a JLer bugs me, it’s Smallville all over again. But in the sketches in the back they call him a ‘Titan to be.’ I guess if he eventually joins the Teen Titans it’s cool.

I guess they got tired of using John Stewart as their media black dude, time for Cyborg to step in and take the load off.

Martian Manhunter was the blackest guy in the JL…Oh well hes in stormwatch now.

Yeah MM was pretty black, considering he was attacked by evil hating White Martians and all.

So my local comic shop owner told me Stormwatch is perhaps a series worth keeping an eye on in the relaunch. What do you guys think?
