What have you guys been reading?

I read JLA: The Nail by Alan Davis today. It's from 1998.

It's an Elseworld story where Superman is never found by the Kents. I can't say it's the best comic ever but it did entertain me enough to read it until the end. One of the big positives is that it isn't Batman-centered, pretty much everyone in the League gets some time to shine (though Hawkgirl gets the least).

I expected Blue and Gold edgelords, got nothing. Loving lineup.

Love the nail

Yeah Extreme Justice is one those books everyone talks shit about but hasn't read. It's boring if anything, but it's not as bad as it looks.
>>
>>82928724
Indeed. I'd love if it had little more memorable villains, desu. You can't fight Monarch half of your book.

I enjoyed it as well. One of the benefits of Elseworld stories is that they don't hold back on killing people off.

I doubt there's anyone who didn't like Nail. It's really good Elseworld.
I loved sequel as well.
>>
>>82929078
I've never read the sequel

>>82929108
It's more cosmic story than Nail.

>>82929183
I love the epicness of it

>Barda by Alan Davis
Unf. Davis is really good at drawing really hot people.

>>82929078
I need to read that next, looks like they wrapped up a lot of the loose plot points I saw in The Nail in it.

Read Morrison and Millar's run on The Flash. Pretty gud. Currently reading Geof Johns run on Flash as the new trades come out. I'm excited to finally have Mark Waid's run on the Flash collected soon. Also how are the Silver Age Flash stories? Been meaning to read those.

The first issue of this just came out. Read it for William Gibson, but it was pretty okay. I'd say to wait for it to finish before reading it.

Oh shit, anon. Thanks for reminding me. I saw this in Win-O many moons ago and completely forgot.

Catching up on Omega Men, Grayson, and Sherrif of Babylon. I'll be meeting Tom King again at a convention in a couple weeks so I want to be prepared.

Nice! What con will that be?

Started reading The Goon. Bought the first two Library Editions on recommendation of the owner of an LCS I used to frequent.
Currently on Jimmy Turtle and the Legendary Boxcar of Well-Made Ladies Shoes

I'm about halfway through the X-Statix omnibus. I dislike Milligan's Hellblazer run even more now.

>>82930722
Awesome Con is DC, pretty chill except it's doubling in attendance every year and the guests are getting more high profile and boring.

The Sabrina comic, it's surprisingly good and being storytimed on /co/ right now.

My local con, Lexington Comic Con, has been nothing but disappointing. It's almost entirely a WWE/Power Rangers/Reality TV 'star' convention.

We got Steranko and Grell though, that was awesome. Jim's as amazing as you could expect.

I've been reading Super Zero, it's about a teenage girl attempting to obtain superpowers in order to save the world from some supposed catastrophe she's convinced is real, when i read it i got [Spoiler]Samurai Flamenco[Spoiler] vibes from it, and recent issues confirmed it, now i want to see where they're taking this.

I'll give this a read

Slowly working through Kirby FF, almost done with the first omni (on issue 27)

It's gotten a lot better but there are still some clunkers (The Infant Terrible and the 2 issue Hulk/Avengers crossover were both really tedious)
