read the first Planet of the Apes trade from Boom…excellent stuff, both story and art. Boom is on a roll right now
Yeah, Boom does a lot of really good stuff.
By the way, www.tfaw.com still has a sale until the end of the month. Get some cheap treasure!
oh yeah I also picked up David Boring by Daniel Clowes at the used bookstore. I didn’t know it existed but flipping through it I knew I would like it so I got it. I read it in two sittings and it indeed was excellent.
i definitely need to get into more indie stuff but it’s hard to find the good stuff amidst all the blankets/black hole/maus crap
Yeah, I like David Boring. I think that’s my favorite Clowes comic that I’ve read. You ever read Adrian Tomine’s stuff?
Why don’t you like Blankets, Black Hole, and Maus?
The end of x-statix brought a tear to my eye.
I’m one proud parent.
I got Scott Pilgrim and The Walking Dead issue 1 free on my ipad, I haven’t read a graphic novel in 3 or 4 years and even then I barely got my feet wet. Would be great if there were more than 3 graphic novels available for download it would be so convenient to have my entire collection with me wherever I go. On the other hand while graphic novels aren’t the same as regular books I’m not sure yet if I’d prefer a physical collection or not.
Anyone have a resource for e-graphic novels?
Curious. Is Scott Pilgrim on the Ipad in color?
Because they just started releasing the graphic novels in color. I would’ve gotten the first volume but it was like over 20 bucks for something I own / read in black and white so I passed. I have the video game and that’s in color, I’m good. 
First volume is. I still can’t decide if I want to start a physical or e collection…although the selection on the comics app sucks since it’s mostly all single issues the convenience of having everything with me at once is too good to pass up.
Probably should have posted this much earlier, but Top Shelf’s annual $3 sale ends today.

Lots of good stuff there.
zephy, green apple has the milligan x-force trades. i picked up punisher in the blood last week.
Are they in the bargain bins outside? Or just on the shelves inside? Seems like every so often the Green Apple just unleashes a bunch of comics into the bargain bins, but I can never predict when or why or which books.
on the shelves inside. i’ll check the bargain bins next time i go
so i read final crisis : revelations. uch better than FC itself. my question is, what books were leading up to that mini? i wanna read those next.
haven’t read a comic in almost 4 years, on a whim I downloaded The Chair on my iPad and it was really good:tup:
made me realize how much I miss comics.
Thinking of buying the new x-men Morrison omni.
TFAW.com is having their annual Black Friday sale. Stuff is already 40%-70% off. On Friday it’ll be 50%-80%. The nick and dent TPBs/HCs are super worth it at 70% or 80% off.
I…bought the Morrison new x-men omnibus…I feel dirty
haven’t checked in here in a while. still think they should close this forum and give us back a regular thread in GD.
got some books in the mail today:
Walking Dead vol. 8 (hardcover)
Death of Ultimate Spider-man omnibus
Crossed vol. 4
Crossed: Wish You Were Here tpb
Jennifer Blood vol. 2
Hellraiser vol. 4
