Good evening owls of /co/,
What a relief to get back to good villain comics. Time-traveling Thunderbolts ahoy
>>78011860
Thank grife.
>>78011912
No more Deathstroke!
No more guaranteed fatality drinking game!
>>78011936
>>78011860
Hello Storyteller.
>What a relief to get back to good villain comics.
Amen to that, sister. Villains for Hire hurt. A lot.
>>78011860
Since this isn't a SOP and we need some pain in our lives, how about that Civil War II?
>>78011945
Pastebin: http://pastebin.com/0jKyyDvj
I think we're close to COMPLETE GLOBAL SATURATION on gifting, even if some stuff will arrive slowly
Oh thank god the pain is over
So today I learned that Larry Hama was an extra in The Warriors
>>78011975
ahahaha
AHAHAHAHA
Time to take bets on who Bendis will shit on, I see there's already a bingo card up
>>78011989
Woah!
What gang?
>>78011999
speaking of pain, Elusive is re-running the STAR WARS CHRISTMAS SPECIAL this evening
>mfw I already watched it once today
>>78011999
>Time to take bets on who Bendis will shit on, I see there's already a bingo card up
yeah, there's some "WAH TUMBLR!!!" stuff on it.
Have you done the King Arthur arc yet?
>>78011999
>>78012034
Is there a space for "having a gajillion tie ins and interrupting many other books"?
>>78012034
you know Miles will be on the right side
>>78012056
nope, we're running it all in order, so far the Timebolts met Namor and Cap
>>78012075
No, there should be
There is a space for "last battle is rushed during a few pages in the final issue"
>>78012003
The Savage Huns
>>78011975
Why in the flying hell would you make a sequel to one of the most infamously shitty events semi-recent history. It's bad enough their making a movie adaptation, but an outright round 2? Who got the most awesome blowjob ever for this to happen?
>>78011999
>Time to take bets on who Bendis will shit on
Might as well just put up any character with two X chromosomes.
>>78012102
>>78012115
because the original sold and still sells
VICTORIAN THUNDERBOLTS!
This arc is the best for costume porn.
>>78012110
Hahah - I should have guessed.
Wow.
They had one of the best levels in the game too
>>78012132
TROLL
IN A DRESS
>>78012132
>victorianbolts
RIP black guy :(
>>78012115
They're only doing it because the movie is called Civil War and their trade for Civil War is one of their consistently best sellers. I highly doubt they give a fuck about the quality of it since retailers will eat it up thinking people will buy it sooner or later.
Same thing with the X Men having a crossover with Apocalypse in it.
>>78011999
I like the spaces on that were you can see the /pol/ come in
Like I get Marvel's not doing amazing or anything rn but the /co/ hate really bugs me.At least they like Vision
I wonder if Boomerang actually managed to score with Moonstone.
>>78012132
How many D-listers get as lucky as Boomerang has in terms of quality usage
>>78012163
We here like to hate on current Marvel trends but it's out of love and frustration, not "tumblr sux"
>>78012168
doubt it
>>78012102
Was so mad no "Final battle is told in spreads and after the fact from a participant"
>>78012191
yeah i know, one of the few decent places in this board.
>>78012030
>People are dying!
>Whores are.
Oi, whores are still people. Like Christopher Walken. He'll do ANYTHING.
>>78012102
>There is a space for "last battle is rushed during a few pages in the final issue"
Reminds me of Power Company. Such a damn shame, that.
>>78012208
>>78012216
The degree of "leaving out the good shit" in Hickmanvengers/Secret Wars has driven me crazy. You're not Gene Wolfe, goddammit, you can't pull that off with narrative sophistication that makes you go "WHAT???" and realize you have to re-read the four books you just finished (and do it twice, for two series)
>>78011999
Last time it was Tony's turn to get shit on, now it's EVERYBODY ELSE'S TURN IRON MAN IS OUR BIGGEST HERO WHY CAN'T YOU SEE THAT???
>>78012191
Bendis bingo is fine, I'm just annoyed with the never-ending whining of tumblr seeping into what was supposed to be a fun, silly game.
>>78012219
>that feel when you're reading unsounded and you want all the whores to survive because nobody deserves this shit
>>78012260
>>78012132
>>78012156
She looks so uncomfortable.
>>78012162
>Civil War
>consistently a best seller
You know what? This is why comic book fans do not deserve nice things. All we do is whine about shit, and still buy said shit anyway!
>>78012219
The funny thing is about the "who cares, they're whores" line is that this is probably a riff on the Jack the Ripper killings, which actually caused a huge public outcry.
>>78012284
Songbird power armor, hnnng
>>78012270
agree, I'd edit the bingo to be less overtly aggrieved and more LOL BENDIS
>>78012327
This is 100% the Thunderbolts in the Ripper murders
>>78012377
And here's your Pygmalion/My Fair Lady riff
>>78012432
So we all survived Titans, yes? It was as bad as I promised it would be, yes?
>>78012467
>>78012467
I'm better from my turbocold, I guess.
>>78012467
Well, it was funnier than I remembered
>>78012467
yes and yes
I'd managed to block most of it from memory after the first time you ran it but man that is some bad comics
>>78012328
What is it about women in armor that is ever so fetching?
>tech-magic
This book is starting to cater to all my tastes. If a robot woman shows up, I don't what I'll do.
>>78012499
that's one of life's little victories
I went to the gym today
>>78012514
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH
Aaaand of course, next issue's title is a Sweeney Todd reference
>>78012509
chicks in armor are awesome
>>78012507
It really does manage to shit on everyone involved
>>78012507
I...think I have a stronger appreciation for Jericho. I guess. He can't not get fucked over by Titans stories, this wasn't even his worst hour.
>>78012270
I dunno, after x-men I think at least one "Bendis tries to talk about Important Issues and fails." square's called for.
>>78012514
>I went to the gym today
I'm proud of you, have a dick in a motherbox as a reward!

>>78012467
So many Roy faces
>>78012567
this page is kind of recycled but eh, it happens
I need to go back and reread Civil War because i'm really starting to think it's been over-insulted and a lot of problems came from the tie ins and scope
then again, it'll still have the ending of Cap is stopped by the Real Heroes (civilans, firefighters, etc) and told he's fucking up
>>78012467
>So we all survived Titans, yes? It was as bad as I promised it would be, yes?
It really was. It did an excellent job of making every single character annoying as fuck, Deathstroke especially turning into "THAT KID".
>>78012570
FUCK YOU ANON :D
it's a giant-size Lantern-Thing
>>78012592
don't make me run it, I will, and the main series is very badly paced
>>78012592
CW isn't particularly bad compared to AvX and most recent events. I don't like it, and it needlessly divided a lot of houses for years, but it was only troublesome.
>>78012634
>>78012579
Those had to be the artist having fun, by some point
>>78012634
I've only ever read the MGK edit and have no plans on remedying this.
>>78012685
HEAD OF MISANDRY
>>78012702
Troll and Hyde are playing body baseball with an axe
>>78012634
>don't make me run it
Do it...do it for Giganto - the badly buried titan
op because of you i'm looking up gene wolfe and getting scared/intimidated/interested dammit
>>78012634
it's only like 7 issues? i'll just marvel unlimited it.
>>78012648
yeah i think also it gets shit for being seen as the starting point for Marvel's event direction which it probably is tbf
still better than most of the other 00s events, maybe Siege is also in that zone of OK
>>78012724
Wolfe is really something. I'd start with a best-of short story collection, and then gird yourself with the online wiki/dictionary/Catholic Encyclopedia and go for The Book of the New Sun
>>78012634
>A warrior woman!
Well, yeah, technically Moonstone is a warrior woman. She's more a psychologist woman though. Troll is a warrior girl though.
>>78012634
>don't make me run it, I will, and the main series is very badly paced
Please don't. If you do, I suspect it will make things between all of us regulars uncomfortable with each other.
>>78012755
"The Island of Doctor Death and Other Stories and Other Stories" is a good starter collection.
>>78012720
You mean Goliath?
>>78012785
Whatever.
Not like they cared enough to not use chains haha.
God, that page is so warped.
>>78012770
Mainly you just come out of it going "shockingly Mark Millar made everyone into an asshole", really
D'awwww, Satana is like all big sister to Troll.
Man now I'm trying to think of the worst 00s event and it's a tough tough race
>>78012785
>>78012720
WHy was he in chains! or worse why is that my memory
>>78012802
It's the tarp that gets me. Hudlin was right when he pointed that that's how a dog would be buried, and fuck Civil War for making me say Hudlin was right.
>>78012817
I planted some more daffodils today
>>78012839
I still vote for Secret Invasion for being the dumbest misuse of setup, continuity fuckups, and godawful pacing
>>78012802
It's a litmus test. Either it looks fucked up once you realize they're burying this giant dude in fukken tarp, or you go full-SCHNELL SCHNELL FATHERLAND
Like, there was always the option to do the funeral off-screen. That option was not taken.
>>78012856
Yeah that was my first thought and probably what i'll land on but still, bendis wrote some shit shit shit events.
>>78012773
>no sells an ancient demon trying to take over her soul
Based Gunna.
>>78012817
Troll is everyone's little sister.
>>78012900
So what's out this coming week other than TIME TO SHIT?
also solicits when
>>78012842
Like I know they were going for "things are so bad we can't even bury our dead" but Jesus.
>>78012882
>>78012921
Satana's just so darn proud of her. That's the kind of relationships we need more of on teams, wherein you have devoted partners, occasional fuckbuddies, daddy figures, Team Mom, siblings, friends, etc.
>>78012929
Solicits should be out this week? They usually come out second week, after we get figures for the rankings, right?
Grayson is coming out this week thanks to Robin War.
>>78012570
>peeg shouting EVERY CLICHE IN THE BOOK to helena
>alan being a mindless giant green zombie who talks in worthless metaphors
>worthless page shows off jimenez's very wasted the boss-mode helena
>jay talks in memes
>jokes about jay being useless
>jay's jokes are shitty
>jay bitches at val and looks like an immature manchild
There, I saved you all the trouble.
>>78012929
According to comiclist volume 2 of Ostrander's Suicide Squad.
YOU ALL BETTER BUY IT
>>78012929
>also solicits when
next monday I think, variants and sneak solicits this Friday
but this month has five Wednesdays so I'm not sure
I'm scared and excited for DC's #50s
I know Gotham Academy, Grayson, Scarlet Witch are out this week, and Book Of The Decade Telos is out too
>>78012982
those jokes, seriously, fuck
also, I read Levitz WF, HELENA was the one who was fine with being on Earth 0, it's Peej who wanted to go back
>>78012570
>>78012982
That art is wasted on that book
>>78012985
Amazon's getting it to me on day zero. I've had volume 1 on my shelf for ACTUAL PLURAL YEARS
>>78012900
they gonna feed all those corpses to Troll?
>>78012839
Maybe they realized his death was kind of their fault and were worried about getting fucked up by a giant zombie.
Also Scarlet Witch and Ultimates
and Secret War part 8 part 2
>>78012982
I don't know why Jay went from depressed alcoholic to cringey quipmaster but I don't like it
poor sweet Jay didn't deserve this ;_;
>>78013007
>also, I read Levitz WF, HELENA was the one who was fine with being on Earth 0, it's Peej who wanted to go back
Clearly Val's penis changed her mind!
>>78012985
I need to get volume 1 and all, don't I, too
>>78013014
Me too buddy.
>>78013041
...holy shit guys, that's a horrible thing to do to Fred
>>78012432
Hi Satana @4th panel
>>78012956
>Satana's just so darn proud of her.
Hell, I'm proud of her. That was badass.
>That's the kind of relationships we need more of on teams, wherein you have devoted partners, occasional fuckbuddies, daddy figures, Team Mom, siblings, friends, etc.
What, you mean variety? Yeah that would be nice. Probably why we ended up like the Legion so much, because nearly everyone interacts with each other differently.
>>78013071
>>78013039
it must be one...superdick
>>78013039
Until the most recent issues, I would have told you Wilson fucked over Alan the most. Because Alan got on a yearlong derail train that's still on fire.
But that's arguably more consistent than mood-whiplash alcoholic shitty-quips ghetto-DCAU Wally-mode Jay now. What the fuck, Jay is even simpler a character than Alan. Jay is just pure, earnest compassion.
>>78012940
where can I read the rest of this?
>>78013014
>>78013067
oh shit and amazon has a listing for volume 3 too! in april.

>>78013095
A "Man Of Steel"?
>>78013110
Done. It's on the drip now, too. I should check to see if the second volume of The Demon is up yet, while I'm at it-- THAT is my most-wanted run, now that Starman Omni 3 is back.
>>78013122
much obliged
>>78013007
>one of the evil demon chicks is called Mary Jane
Someone has to be projecting or taking the piss with this one. Wow.
>>78013096
Alan, Jay, Peej and Huntress all got fucked over bad and at this point I don't know who got it worse
Jay being COMPLETELY different from earlier on, getting de-aged to a teenager despite explicitly being 21, neither with any acknowledgment at all, and then having this insane character and mood whiplash might just be the worst
>>78013128
vol 1-4 is about half of his entire run, right?
>>78012467
I want to commission a picture of Slade driving a Bus to Crazy Town.
>>78013171
You'll probably recognize some panels, that edit's circulated very widely
Time for the home team to get an issue!
>>78013196
4's listing goes up to 30, so that's a little less than half
should be 9 trades altogether then?
>>78013197
Get it in the same notebook as a Rise of Arsenal commission
>>78013181
Not quite: >>78013071
>>78013214
They tend to fatten up later trades to avoid shit falling out of print. Might be less.
>>78013229
>>78013229
Damn, Luke. You look like shit.
Nice belt, though.
>>78013181
That was one of the Ripper's victims, man.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Jane_Kelly
>>78013243
oh yeah, they could probably squeeze the last bits into less, so maybe 7-8 altogether
>>78013251
>>78012702
That second panel's some ripe filename potential.
>>78013164
>Now this asshole
I do feel bad he got Tieri writing his book
>>78013275
It is!
>>78013230
>>78013256
Yeah, caught that after the fact.
Still, I'm surprised they didn't make a joke about it. Have her call Boomer "tiger" or something.
>>78013300
Has Tieri ever written anything else as good as SPACE: Punisher?
>>78013325
>>78013344
>>78013356
>>78013319
It's not like Mary Jane Watson is the only Mary Jane in existence. And I'm pretty sure "tiger" is slang from the 20th century.
>>78013379
oh shit it's a Scarecrow knockoff
>>78013304
But you look good in it, Luke!

J'onnjust showed up on Supergirl fyi
i'm starting to think that the real reason Hal isn't on Arrow is because Supergirl is doing all the cosmic stuff and they don't wanna cross into similar territory
>>78013551
>>78013551
I have never watched the SW Christmas special. I'm proud of that.
>>78013578

>>78013583
Nah, probably just them blowing the SFX budget on Firestorm.
We're really fukken due for Alan, tho.
>>78013620
I want ALan with Jay
>>78013616
;______;
>>78013620
I just want some LOSH in Legends of Tomorrow, which is expecting too much.
>>78013634
He can be his Atlantis friend!
>>78013583
>i'm starting to think that the real reason Hal isn't on Arrow is because Supergirl is doing all the cosmic stuff and they don't wanna cross into similar territory
I don't care which show he's on as long as he shows up
come on they already have made blatant references to him on Flash & Arrow just do it already
>>78013654
this is the best keikaku ever
>>78013583
He looks worlds better than Red Tomato. >>78013533
>>78013658
If LoT gets a season 2 I desperately want a LOSH member or two on the main team at the very least.
>>78013679

>>78013679
more?
>>78013658
>my best friend is from atlantis
I'm still calling that for Peeg.
>>78013729
Yeah
>>78013729
Yes please.
>>78013729
oh man these costumes
oh man, dat Satana, and Moonstone
Troll: much the same
>>78013730
If they ever show it I just don't want an Aquaperson, give us the twist!
>>78013696
Constantine rumors make me think it'll be magic focused, so Mysa?
>>78013776
I'm really liking Satana's costume for....reasons.
>>78013776
>>78013777
>Mysa?
That could possibly be enough to satisfy me, yes.
>>78013680
damn, that does look pretty good
>>78013826
>>78013776
Is Satana wearing a corset? When is this exactly?
>>78013776
You know how time travel plots are usually annoying and disgustingly over-complicated?
This here is how you do it right.
>>78013777
>Mysa
Please don't play with my heart, anon. For real though, DC needs to get some Legion stuff going, for fucks sake.
>>78013849
>>78013869
It really pulls off the 'romp' part of a time travel plot
also, Parker just caught any new readers up, elegantly.
>>78012984
I just realized, the capsule on the right looks like a sleeping Swamp Thing face.
Manny's turning into an Avatar of the Green.
>>78013849
Troll hunt fluffy bunnies!
>>78013920
mmmm, bunny
>>78013889
Boomerang is pretty damn swole.
Didn't someone run the baseball stats he was given in Superior Foes and realize by those numbers he was the greatest baseball player of all time?
>>78013869
>DC needs to get some Legion stuff going, for fucks sake
they're gonna be in the next LEGO DC dtv, at least
>>78012030
Speaking of the ripper, what did you Anons think of From Hell?
>>78013938
I'd believe it
>>78013934
>>78013938
The portrait of Casey Stengel on the wall at one point in Foes made me laugh so hard
>>78013973

>>78014049
Hey, he won that sword fair and square.
And he's right. It is a pretty sweet looking blade.

Mmm this is a fantastic page
Got to admit, I'd buy a Medieval Boomerang figure.

>>78014311

Second panel would have been better if Boomer had been flipping Galahad the bird.
>>78014301
She is cute. The batshit kind of cute, but still.

>>78014425
>>78014427

>>78014451
>>78014465

>>78014451
We're going to read Detroit Metal City? Where?
>>78014360
>even Merlin thinks Karla's fine as hell
I'll give the old bastard some credit, he has good taste.
>>78014387
I think Hyde's entire purpose in this book is to be "that guy".
>>78014490
Mignola influence is strong here.
>>78014492
I don't know but I am going to make it happen some time
>>78014490

>>78014425
This Merlin looks cool.
He also looks like he would do bad things to my ass if i were ever to stumble into him in a dark alley.
>>78014538

He looks like he has that Christopher Lee boom in his voice.

I thought Satana was a brunette, not a redhead.

Nice to see how consistently Marvel Merlin's a dick.

It's been pretty ruddy at times, I think it depends on her mood
>>78014490
Seems reasonable.
Makes me remember Second edition D&D where most monster had a helpful note regarding what you could use their bodyparts for.

DC Merlin is a total cock, too
>>78014619
You kidding? She's Hellstorm's sister and a daughter of Hell, of course her hair's the color of blood on fire.
>>78014518
Speaking of which, I re-watched the first Hellboy movie today. It mostly holds up, I find. Effects are a bit dated.

>He also looks like he would do bad things to my ass if i were ever to stumble into him in a dark alley.
....Well, I can't disagree with that assumption.

Etrigan, your brother is a total asswipe.

I think the closest to nice Merlin we've read is Mirth.
>>78014729
HIS BALL!
>>78014762
I miss him
>>78014693
Her hair looks brown a lot.
>>78014762
Mirth is the best

Because it was TOTALLY necessary to film a scene of an elderly wookie jerking off.
By the way, was that old timer Chewbacca's dad or father in law? Hard to tell since there's no subtitles for the wookie speak, for some reason incomprehensible by the reasonably sane.
>>78014780
I wonder just how much magic shit Boomer swiped.
>>78014879
I think it's his dad but I don't even want to know
>>78014910
Boomer lets everyone out, for the lulz
>>78014930

Aw, Gunna looks so happy to have her axe back!
I bet she sleeps with it like a teddy bear. :3
