>>84016698
Is that Eiling?
Also, howdy hey.
Are we heading back to Captain Atom/EXTREME Justice after the Squad minis? Or heading off to somewhere new?
Some anon just started doing GI Joe storytimes, which I recommend to anyone who enjoy Suicide Squad. It'll probably scratch some of the same itch.
It's got the sketchy military industrial politics, the ninjas, and the endearing villains. Plus toyetic as fuck designs on everything because they were literal toys.
>>84016698
shit, sorry, had to do some dog stuff
>>84016741
Well, there goes me catching up on X-Men storytimes.
still mad about this retcon desu
>>84016810
I'm not sure, actually
and yes, that's Our Wade
>>84016827
just change your links to cuckchan.org and they'll work, the data is fine
>>84016698
>>84016820
Hi OP. Always crazy jumping from 1980s coloring to modern coloring of the same designs.
>>84016741
Man, and I was trying to read all of the old JSA stuff...

>>84016842

>>84016844
That makes me not want to catch up on storytimes
>>84016698
Hello Storyteller.
>From the Ashes.
Double meaning.
>>84016857
it's the URL we deserve tbqh
>>84016866
cuckchan? fucking really?
well, that's....something.
>>84016810
The white ninjas trigger me, but the Japanese ninjas are the hottest motherfuckers. GI Joe is such a quandary.
>>84016879
Probably my least favorite meme.
>>84016893
>>84016810
You know, I do need to read some Joe some time, since Judge has extolled the many virtues of Cobra Commander
>>84016922
>since Judge has extolled the many virtues of Cobra Commander
is the Baroness one of his waifus?
>>84016922

here comes Wade!
>>84016893
>cuckchan? fucking really?
>cuck cuck cukity cucking cuck!
Forget it, Storyteller. It's 4chan.
>>84016946
lol, waller doesn't spend her time being a do-nothing internet attention whore
it can't be that hard to make a chrome extension thing that changes cuck to cluck
>>84016917
It's definitely my least favorite. At least the other ones I hate have the decency to die.
>>84016961
I will always have a giggle for "cucked in the cuck by my own cuck", tho
>>84016961
Says the cuck. The cuck doth protest too much
>>84016996
Ooh, Wade's got your number.
>>84017015
>>84017013
Is the point that the cuck does protest, or doesn't?
>>84017024
>>84017048
LOL
O
L
>>84017044
The cuck continues to cuck, oblivious to its self-cucking to the point of parody
>>84017015
>using someone's better nature against them
Fucking hell, Wade. This dude never ceases to be amazing in just how much of a colossal asshole he can be. He straight up makes Amanda Waller look like a saint.
>>84017073
>self-cucking
That sounds... advanced.
>>84016905
There's only I think, 3 plot relevant white ninjas? And they all have a decent reason for existing.
And they were all predated by a blind, black ninja.
How is this run.
>>84017074
Wade is an expert at playing angles. Waller is nice enough to - most of the time - only do that to bad people. Makes no difference to Eiling if his pet is Captain Atom or Major Force, as an example.
>>84017092
none of the charm or characters of the original
>>84017074
Wade hasn't even BEGUN to asshole, this run
>>84017078
Only the cuckiest of cucks can do it
>>84017103
so Major Force is in the current LoT Firestorm story and he seems completely defanged and boring as fuck, as is everything in that story
>>84017112
Wade can't be worse than he was during Captain Atom. Right OP....?
>>84017179
SURPRISE! It's the Soviet assholes!
>>84017193
Needs more Mrs. Gradenko.
>>84017193
>>84017216
Everything needs more Mrs. Gradenko, the bear who likes to shape-shift into the form of a babushka.
>2007
When did decompression really start to become a huge problem? Cause this issue has been going at a pretty good pace.
Say around... 2013 or so?
>>84017179
>defanged
Which means he's stopped acting like a barely contained sexist monster. Lame.
>>84017179
>defanging Major Force
What's the point? Doesn't comics fandom at large know him as that guy who killed Kyle's girlfriend and stuffed her in the fridge?
>>84017263
hey that Grayson annual with Harley, Simon Baz, Constantine, and the Spectre looks kind of rad
>>84017291
I don't think he has remotely the same backstory, and Eiling is just bland as fuck typical power-mad cack-handed general as opposed to being terrifyingly good at what he does
>>84016893
To be fair, they are looking to change the name. I myself like desudesustorage.org
>>84017321
>>84017291
Ostrander has Skills
>>84017092
>>84017112
Bad Giffen has a tendency to find his way onto these kinds of paramilitary-ish titles.
>>84017321
>hey that Grayson annual with Harley, Simon Baz, Constantine, and the Spectre looks kind of rad
I hope it's fun
I wonder where Corrigan might show up in rebirth
>>84017321
rip grayson
hopefully seeley can make nightwing worth reading
>>84017360
he does, doesn't he
I still just want to know what the fuck he was aiming for with Magog
>>84017291
The series that's usually cited as popularizing decompression is The Authority, and that was early 2000's.
>>84017124
Sometimes you're cucking along as you do, but then another cuck comes around and you can't be cucked not to cuck in every direction in a petty cuckly display of cucking that was perfectly avoidable.
did we talk about that Nightwing solicit that was Dick vs an Owl Monster?
Hey Seeley
>>84017369
needs Ladytron in addition to Middy
and everyone bitching about Middy losing a solo and being 'demoted' should have to go years without their favorite character showing up fucking anywhere at all
>>84017397
It would be nice to get a good Stormwatch, though.
>>84017394
hoot hoot
Orlando, at least, has seen all of our owl jokes
Waller for Head Bitch
>>84017263
I'm kind of bothered by someone as Soviet as Super Stalin not calling WWII the Great Patriotic War.
>>84017397
As an Authority fan, those two are not mutually exclusive
I remember the Morrison debacle
I remember when he single-handedly killed WS
>>84017436
A Stormwatch relaunch without trolling or shit would be nice, if someone has a good angle for fitting it into the DCU that's not The Authority style of over the top
>>84017444
;____;
>>84017321
Ballet dancer gonna fuck you up
>>84017397
>and everyone bitching about Middy losing a solo and being 'demoted' should have to go years without their favorite character showing up fucking anywhere at all
I've seen a lot of people saying that DC is missing out on money by not keeping Midnighter going, apparently ignoring the abysmal sales it had
>>84017457
True, if we survive EXTREME JUSTICE and the first arc of Loeb B/S, we can get to Nate Stomps The Authority Singlehandedly
>>84017457
I think Stormwatch is the most likely to fit, yeah.
>>84017486
My body can't take the suspense, OP!
>>84017476
there are two separate but complimentary tacks people take:
1) it's actually going to sell great in trade and so DC should have kept it going (questionable)
2) it's a gay book and so there's an obligation to keep it going for diversity
>>84017486
HAHA TIME FOR WARLORD
>>84017510
>it's actually going to sell great in trade and so DC should have kept it going
Guess they didn't see the first trade sales.
>>84017510
>>84017510
>1) it's actually going to sell great in trade and so DC should have kept it going (questionable)
I was hoping it would do well in trade but I could have sworn I saw Orlando say it wasn't
>>84017476
Makes me want the end of 2016 to see how much the first trade sold cause it showed up on comichron in Feb, the month it came out with 1,678, and it hasn't shown up since then.
I can see it getting like 4k by December
>>84017544
Orlando talked pretty bluntly about digital and how it pays out and how it's usually too late to save a book given the cycle of money in/money out, and I think his implication was also that trade sales were middling.
>>84017568
>>84017524
FUCK YEAH WARLORD

Heavily regretting giving away my copy of Path of Radiance.
>>84017670
No, I think I understand.I'm more fixated on lipstick though.
>>84017689
>>84017613
>how are you owls?
Pretty good. Got a bit more cleaning done. Cleaning up dirt and grime is a pain for several reasons, not the least of which is that bleach can fuck you up proper. Shame the stuff is so caustic, cause oddly enough, it smells kinda nice. Y'know, before it burns your sinuses that is.
>>84017666
Ha, true.
>>84017709
Ooh, I have this thing wherein I'm allergic enough to bleach I can tell if it's been open somewhere hours later, so I try to avoid it
>>84017697
Doesn't that go for like 200 bucks now?
>>84017721
So far: Eiling 1, Waller 0
>>84017704
I have a bitching setup for my lipstick, I got small mugs hanging on a cup tree and I just stick 'em in the cups. Fuck yeah, vertical storage

I'm really struggling with the coloring here vs. what we've had for the last few weeks.
>>84017975
>>84017976
Fuck off, faggot
>>84017996
so we back to the present, now
Morrison happened to Eiling in the interim
>>84016996
"Wound too tight" also applies to Turner, otherwise Steel could not have caused him to go bonkers with a Frosted Flakes mail-in Tony mask.
>>84018007
This was such good use of continuity
>>84018007
>>84018007
>Superman defeated him by stranding him on an asteroid
Uh, no.
>>84018053
>>84017697
It been worse Anon.My copy got straight up stolen from my house, along with all three Xenoblade games and 30 others.
>>84018109
Well shit, I'm really sorry about that, anon. I hope you're OK now.
>>84018067
>>84018054
didn't he show up twice in JLA?
>>84017216
I don't think that she's around yet.
This is set before they ever even leave Belle Reve.
>>84018126
>>84018054
Well that did happen.
>>84018007
So Eiling is just kinda straight up General Ross now.
>>84018067
>My grandfather fought dinosaurs in World War II on Dinosaur Island.
Comic books.
>>84018123
I've moved all of my video games in one room next to my bedroom, bought a deadbolt, and locked it by key.
As opposed to proudly displaying them on my bookshelf like I used to.
>>84018140
>>84018152
he's much less interesting as an all-out monster
>>84018175
>>84018126
>>84018149
I know it happened, and yes, he did show up twice. In his second appearance during WWIII he gets banished to a Phantom Zone-like dimension alongside Orion's wardog. So much for Ostrander being good with continuity.
>>84018182
>>84017439
That's a fair point. Stalinoivolk should sound like propaganda as much as possible.
>>84018206
>>84018201
It's possible the JLA refused to share that with anyone.
>>84018220
>>84018228
>>84018182
Anyone else suddenly thinking about Splinter Cell? Something, can't imagine what, just brought it to mind.
>>84018260
>>84018299
hey, doesn't that statue look familiar?
>>84017862
This whole fiery sword interaction feels very lewd*
fixed that for you
>>84018312
>>84018326
nothing lewd here
nope
>>84018381
HI JENNIFER
>>84017778
How does that talking pterosaur know Flag's name?
>>84018312
Jennifer's dress is oddly tame here.
>>84018403
Obviously he met Flag's grandfather.
>>84018403
Because it's Wade Eiling in a bird suit.
>>84018393
NOTHING REMOTELY LEWD
>>84018393
Grell had very particular fetishes and hot fighting chicks was his best one.
>>84018434
Wow, Flag's big hot sword is a lot longer than Rustam's.
>>84017988
At least it's relatively good modern colouring.
So many colourists are as bad as the writers they work with nowadays.
>>84018482
Probably because of Jennifer's influence.:D
>>84018461
Hot fighting chicks is something Grell and I can agree on.
>>84018461
God bless him for them all.
>>84018513
>furry convention time
>>84018461

>>84018528
now we Checkmate and soon to be post-Checkmate
>>84018543
Ostrander's Multiplex is a fucking hoot
>>8401800
For all the wrong that Morrison did to Eiling in his push to make all villains cackling madmen, jamming his brain in a meta-body is something that perpetual bastard Wade Eiling would do to spite death.
But then he'd just go back to backroom politicking.
>>84018537
And booz. Lots of booz
>>84018563
As storyteller previously said, the thing to do would be to have him put on a Shaggy Man-sized uniform and turn up at his regular 6 AM on base.
>>84018528

>>84018610
Eiling also got put into a roided up monster so he wasn't his normal self
>>84018728
Yeah, Morrison acknowledged in-story that he knew full well he was writing an OOC Eiling by saying the brain tumor changed him and the Shaggy Man's brain is too primitive for deep thinking.
>>84018610

>>84018149
Gotta say, being stuck in a place where nobody can hear him, much less listen to him, is a damn near perfect punishment for Eiling, all other things aside.
>>84018612
Having to obey Rick and Amanda is an even BETTER punishment, though.
>>84016698
Bump
