A place to discuss comic books of all types, from old to new, Big 2 to indie, and everything in between.

Floppies, graphic novels, compilations, omnibusses (omnibusi?) are all fair game.

There is only one rule:*

Comic Books is a no judgement zone.

You can talk all you want about how Rob Liefeld is trash, Bob Kane is an asshole, or Frank Miller and Dave Sim’s politics have made them toxic, that’s all good.

If, however, another user is LEGITIMATELY a fan of something you don’t like, that does NOT make them a lesser person. Attack the art for being bad, not the person for being a fan of bad art.

* I lied. There are TWO rules... No piracy. Cover shots? That's good. Interior pages, in moderation? Sure. Full books? Links to pirate sites? That's how we get things shut down. :(

I'm not saying it's been a problem, because it hasn't been.

My pull list for this week, what are you running?

Adventures Of Superman Jon Kent #6 - Final issue, been a good run!

Ancient Enemies #5 - Almost wrapped on my Frank Miller charity project. :)

Black Cloak #6 - Always a good read, art maybe less than good. :(

City Boy #3 - Another good character, think Jack Hawksmoore of the Authority.

Doctor Strange #6 - Still wondering if they're doing a Clea fakeout or not.

Fantastic Four #10 - Not sure why they felt the need to reboot again, but this has been good!

Fire And Ice #1 - Here's the problem with comics. I'm down for a comic book sequel to the classic fantasy film "Fire and Ice", but do we NEED 26 variant covers?

Justice Society Of America #5 - Opposite of Christopher Chaos, feels like it's been forever since #4 came out.

Knight Terrors Ravager #2 - Knight Terrors stuff starting to wrap up...

Moon Knight #26 - Oh! Good! So it didn't end at #25... that was a weird super sized issue followed by a new Moon Knight title so I wasn't sure.

Oddly Pedestrian Life Of Christopher Chaos #2 - Man, feels like #1 just came out, didn't it?

Paklis #7 - Best Sci-Fi anthology book since Heavy Metal. Seriously.

Parker Girls #9 - This is one I'm sure 99% of comicdom is unaware of. It's part of Terry Moore's connected universe of titles. Strangers in Paradise, Rachel Rising, Echo, Motor Girl (which was amazing!), Serial (also amazing!)

Peacemaker Tries Hard #4 - Yeah, it's a sequel to the TV show, no, I don't care. :)

Strange Academy Miles Morales #1 - Wait, what? Miles isn't magic!

Fall of X books - I hadn't planned on buying these, but I guess I'll LOOK at them first then decide.
Astonishing Iceman #1
Magneto #1
X-Men #25

I'm most likely just getting Justice Society of America and X-Men 25. This year's Hellfire Gala was pretty intense, excited to see how Kitty gets herself out of the situation she found herself in. I got the frost 3 issues of Adventures of Superman John Kent and never got around to reading them. Over all it's gonna be a pretty light week for me.

X-Men 25 does answer the question of what happened to Kitty and it's probably her most amazing moment ever!
