I claim this thread in the name of the MAIN MAN!
Any of you bastiches got a problem with that?
>>78042321
Alright, everybody take another shot.
>>78041992
Here we go!
>>78042285
>I really don't do anything truth be told but thank you.
This board wouldn't be shit without storytimes and all of you are good people in my book.
Okay, finally something worked. Z41JYHV8A537 is getting a gift.
>>78042352
Lobo would want it that way! Also I feel like that drinking game means people DON'T want to read Lobo but that can't be the case.
>>78042364
Well thanks Santaseid. You guys make it a joy to do!
>>78042364
...perfection
Another joyeux noel from 3P5RFH9G03V0J .ca!
Turnout for Santa Claus Conquers The Martians was small but thanks to those who showed up. I'm going to try and set up some semi-regular streams of awful christmas movies over the next several weeks so keep your eyes open!
>>78042435
please tell me you at least streamed the MST3k or Rifftrax version of it.
>>78042364
Dat bulge
>>78042464
yep, the MST3K episode. I'll likely be streaming the Santa Claus episode later this week too
>>78042407
And now 307O1DVVXD5CF is getting his paltry gift!
I feel bad again.
Well, I'm out for the night. I'll be back tomorrow with MORE ARCHIE.
And unlike the other DD I have less shame so here we go again haha.

Not gonna lie, that's the reason I haven't posted mine until now despite being here since thread #1.
>anon, your taste is shit and you're a greedy whore
I know no one would say that, but still. Social anxiety is weird. Anyways, list:
1UNJIEQZ58UH3
>>78042667
Beautiful.
>>78042575
What the fuck was the answer for box 4?
>>78042611
Indeed it was. If you do more you should make a consistent format for the answers, some box were really annoying because of that. But overall it has been really fun, the song thing and the movie thing were both really clever.
>>78042667
Did you see his face when he was on that talkshow listening to Trump talk?
>>78042748
I'm glad you enjoyed it, it was interesting seeing your reactions. Also hilarious to me that I got some Anons to watch Miracle On 31st Street all the way
>>78042643
Thanks Dan.
One question thoughWhat was it? The number went down, but nothing was changed haha. Which is odd.
>>78042751
No, I didn't. Was it funny?
>>78042728
Enjoy love! You're a man after my own heartby the way sir you have good taste .
>>78042794well I wanted to do something silly so Popeye.
>>78042791
It was a cool movie, so it's ok. I was actually copying every single capital letter I saw on the movie. What a mistake.
>>78042823
The funniest.
Its about time to get my annual supply of eggnog.
Going to get eggnog ice cream, eggnog and whip cream. I seem to be the only one who loves non alcoholic eggnog in my family. I sometimes even make milkshakes with it in replace of milk.
Any good recipes for treats or anything using eggnog? Please note I do not drink alcohol or alcoholic eggnog
>>78042825
You're fucking awesome haha.
>>78042861
Haha, excellent.
>>78042667
This might be my favorite scrib since The Human Santapede.
>>78042873
Give me a minute
>>78042873
You try making Tres Leche with egg nog instead of one of the milks at the end?
>>78042888
I almost went Human Santapede for the OP...I should have.
>>78042874
I don't know about that but thanks Dave!
>>78042919
Next time. I'm hoping my colored Shazam Family Christmas gets up there one of these days.
>>78042910
>Tres Leche
shoot no, I should try that, I always worry baked goods get fucked up if I use eggnog
>>78042744
http://pastebin.com/KG02gPAn It's basically the same as previous Box4.
>>78042715
Feliz navidad a ti tambien! Gracias!
It's super late here, good night everyone!
>>78042946
Seems like it could be cool.
>>78042940
Throw it up there next thread. Gotta make things happen yourself!
>>78042946
It's true, baking is a tough science and egg nog is a lot thicker than milk.
Flash Fact: Did you guys know you can substitute blood for eggs in a recipe that calls for it?
>>78043007
I did not! That is kinda cool, gross but cool!
In celebration of two rad guys getting me some gifts, I'll be spreading the love a bit. I'm a fan of Grayson and Tom King in general so let that be a warning if you have his works in your wishlist.
Someone's already been hit!
>>78042998
If I'm around to start next thread I will. I'm barely awake now.
>>78043007
You can, but will you?
>>78043007
>Flash Fact: Did you guys know you can substitute blood for eggs in a recipe that calls for it?
That... makes sense I guess? The proteins would work in a similar way under heat probably to get the same texture. The taste would be unmistakable though.
>>78043066
Okay one more small one before I drive home.
>>78043044
Santaseid tell me you're reading Omega Men. I want King to do L.E.G.I.O.N. so badly.
>>78043044
I really need to get around to reading Grayson and Omega Men. The Hal issue of Darkseid War was amzing.
>>78042825
Oh damn, thank you! Now to pay it forward.
>to peek or not to peek
>>78042946

Wow thread #16, last time i checked in here it was #4
Guess ill post my list again
2AEX0KGKI28HW
>>78042696Between gifts and having to renew all of my IDs at the same time I'm really up against it for cash until my next paycheck comes in. But I do have an english copy of The Incal that I've barely touched since I wound up receiving a french copy very soon after buying it. I could send it to you if you're interested, $50 seems like a crazy price for it even in hardcover
>>78043026
Yup, 65g of blood can be substituted for each egg.
>>78043082
They actually say it tastes pretty good with cinnamon and more acidic flavors like sourdough
Heres some cake made with blood.
>>78043136
I'm a couple months behind but yes! I met Tom King a few days before the first issue dropped and he's got to be one of my favorite creators out there. He was just fucking great. Anything they let him do consider me in.
>>78043156
You really do. He's talented all around, he really knows how to nail a character home, has good humor, and keeps the story interesting at all times. I'm not looking forward to the day /co/ inevitably turns on him.
>>78043156
I'm not too big on Omega Men as some other people here, but Grayson is a lot of fun.
>>78043253
For real? I'm in Canada; would that break the bank for you re: shipping?
>>78043276
A Once Crowded Sky is on my IRL Christmas list, I'm interested to see how it stacks up to his comics
Tom King scares me cause the dude is literally writing everything I want and doing it so well
shoe's gotta drop
Alright I gotta go home! Thanks for reading!TLXAB1I1CN3I
>>78043276
I am such a sucker for the kind of intricate long form and figure it out and reread style, and he's doing it in DC Cosmic? Be still my heart. He's actually doing something with Kyle Rayner that's not power levels wank and shitting on Carol Ferris, too. I'm pulling singles but ready for the trade to loan people.
>>78043319
it'd be domestic and it'd fit into a bubble envelope, so it wouldn't be too bad no
Wow, well I'm sorry for the Anons who had trouble with this puzzle! Oh wait no I'm not! I'm the Riddler it's what I do! I hope you all had fun. http://pastebin.com/xTzCypV9

>french toast
shit now all I need is eggnog pancakes and I will be living the dream
All this talk of John Cena reminds me of somebody's wishlist from last year.
>>78043257I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to try it at least a little.
>>78043329
But he's not writing the main GL book, anon.pls DC I will give you all my money
Well that movie was just, terrible. I can't even express how bad that was. Of course that being saidI'll be showing that to everyone I know
>>78043322
I got him to sign me a copy but I've yet to actually read it. We joked for like 10 minutes about Dick and how some people love to read about child Dick, but some prefer an adult Dick that's out on his own. His signature was very appropriate.
>>78043339
The Kyle parts are what really sells it to me. The story is a little disjointed right now but the characters themselves are great, I'm just excited to see where they're at in issue 12.
>>78043361
If you really are cool with doing that, feel free to email me at thisisforscreening@gmail to set things up
Thanks a lot, dude!
>>78043371
I too want to read this
>>78043446
>that signature
Well there go my sides
>looking at amazon
>Absolute Court of Owls release yesterday
>only collects Batman 1-11, no tie-ins
>$90
Why?
>>78043446
His Vision is also 100% not what I was expecting and what I didn't know I needed.
>>78043409
GL's 2 mainstream 4 me
tho if it's a Trojan horse for stuff like Omega Men go full speed
>>78043409
People hear blood and they immediately get grossed out, but I mean you can just go down to any butcher shop and buy blood. No one said the recipe had to call for people blood.
Dropping Wishlist, are you guys hyped for Christmas?
>>78043319
I swear, I could by a damn boat, drive across the lake and drop off a package by myself and it'd still be cheaper than shipping to Canada sometimes.
>captcha wants me to pick out boats
How fitting.
>>78043370
>>78043412
See, it's shit like this which is why Batman doesn't like you.
Jumping in story time. It's vaguely christmas related.

>>78043512
How preposterous! He loves me, after all what do you call doing a puzzle you could just as easily ignore!
>>78043412
I feel that way after watching Carnivore.
>>78043482
Some people will buy anything with that title.
>>78043484
Yeah, Vision has been fantastic so far. Probably be buying that when it's collected. I do like Grayson, too. Recently caught it, it's been a fun read.
>>78043503
I'm hyped for the days off I get around that time.
Firssst Dredd of the Thredd. Here goesss!
>>78043559
If it had the tie-ins I would get it, but otherwise I don't see the point of collecting just the Batman issues and calling it an Absolute. DC needs to chill on the Batman pandering, it's getting sickening.
>>78043503
I'm hyped for food and watching the little kids having a good time
I am also now hyped to go to sleep, woo, it's supposed to be 75 and sunny tomorrow.
Also this series gave inspiration for the best /co/ related song ever

Motherfucker it'sss not letting me delete. I'll ssskip thisss one for now and start later. Sssorry, ssstorytimer anon.
>>78043654
Its all good
>>78043494
Huh, I didn't know that. I figured animal blood was just disposed of, like you'd run the risk of zoonotic diseases or something.
>>78043503
I'm switching majors in college, so I'm wishing that the new department lets me in.
>>78043673
what are you switching from to?
>>78043673
Blood sausage can be pretty good. Extremely rich.
>>78043693
Mechanical engineering to mechanical engineering technology. The difference is that MET is more application based, while ME is more theoretical, and hands-on works better for me.
>>78043673
I guess what I said might be a little wrong not all will do it because it has to be documented as a sale of organs but I've never had a problem getting blood when I needed it.

Haha, glad you liked it. I spent longer than I care to admit trying to figure out how to make it a webm so the music would play when the pic was opened.
At the risk of sounding desperate: Did my The Incal hookup disappear?
To the anon who gifted me The Shade, thanks! It arrived today, albeit damaged, but Amazon's sending a replacement sometime in the next few days, so no worries!
>>78043044
I've been sorely tempted to pick up the Grayson trades, but I'm already picking it up monthly. I'm behind now, I guess, since I last picked up the Halloween variant before the move.
>>78042364
I'm glad to see Santaseid, Jr. is getting some play this year. Seriously, this and >>78042667 are a much needed bit of levity after the ongoing annoyance of attempting to beat the final stage in Mega Man X 2. Fucking Sigma...
Hello all. How's it going?
>>78044028
It's going. Getting late. I'll probably be hitting the ol' dusty trail soon.
>>78043953
If you end up getting them, go with paperback. They're not doing hardcovers after volume 1!
>>78044025
I forgot about him until I noticed him on my self today so blame me!
>>78044028
Pretty good all things considered, and yourself? Still employed?
>>78044028
It's a lovely day as always! Especially as the holidays draw nearer! How are you anon?
>>78044073
Alrighty then.

Also, I guess I put the wrong code after looking at the op instructions, 4J5QYL638EOC
Many thanks to the guy who gave me the 4th volume of transmetropolitan.
Just letting you guys know, my offer still stands for gifting one person for each extra gift I get on my list, Merry Christmas!

>gifting one person for each extra gift I get on my list
Sounds genius and selfish all at once.
>>78044297
Well, I'd hate to come in here and complain about things again. Gotta save that for the rest of the year! Maybe make complaining less a New Year's resolution. I KNEW I'd think of one in time!
>>78044305
You got it, buddy. That code links to your other wishlist, while the one you posted before goes to the Comics list. Enjoy your gift!
Just to be clear when Elusive tallies up: 252M5UHDA89FT / 4J5QYL638EOC has been gifted.
>>78044392More on the selfish side if you ask me, but to each their own.
It's always a pleasure being in all of your company, but it's time for bed. Catch you guys later!VJ9BT1OBNF7

Usually, yes! But a good night's sleep can too, which I think I will try, but I'll be back tomorrow, bye for now!

It's alright. Most of the first issue was just set up.
>>78043371
Number 1 was storytimed here a bit ago. It was mostly story setup but the direction it was taking looked pretty good.
>>78043371
I think he's confirmed to be the basest writer of all time
Man, I'm just not getting the time to read each of these storytimes
>>78046032
Thanks for that, i dig some classic spidey
I'm still feeling terrible so I'm off work again. Spent the last 2 hours with the baby and found a foolproof way of making him laugh. That's a bonus right there.
