I must take exception to that claim as clearly The New Off-Topic Thread 3: In Your Face Iceshadow!!! and The Social Thread: This Title Sucks Edition are superior thread titles.

Nope. BOOM comics is going to be doing miniseries based on Disney/PIXAR properties that will be formatted for collection into TPB. Kingdom Comics is going to be producing original graphic novels based on Disney properties.

Awesome! Is it going to take place before before or after the movie?

It looks like the Incredibles book (the first miniseries at least) will take place after. It deals with the Incredibles after they've already been established as a super team.

Also.... Volume 2 of Umbrella Academy!!!!!

HELL YEAH!

Ah, Weird that Disney is getting a comic book company and licences out it's characters to another instead.

Card was asked about the differences between writing for comic books and novels. Card equated it to his background as a playwright, since motivations are revealed through dialogue and not narration. He also praised comic book artists, saying that the top ones are even better than the best actors at conveying emotion. "All of my ineptitude is completely covered by really good work from the artists," he said.

No. It's not.

So that series is good then? I wasn't too sure whether I wanted to check it out or not since it was written by the front man for My Chemical Romance.

It's pretty good. Great even.

It's decently original, and pretty quirky, in a good way. The characters are fun. It's nothing super deep, but I'd rank it a little under, say, Casanova.

It's like Doom Patrol meets the Royal Tenenbaums.

Today I bought

  • Harley and Ivy 1-3 (Thanks Project for the recommendation

  • Elseworlds Finest - Supergirl & Batgirl
  • Superman-Batman 08 - 13 (The Supergirl From Krypton arc)
  • Supergirl 00 - 13 (got more on order) - The new ones not original

The Supergirl arc is what made me fall in love with Turner's art and Supergirl.

I like the first Superman/Batman arc by Loeb and McGuinness the most.
 
Re: The All About Comics Thread 4: Mole Is Reading Watchmen?!

When is the new League of Extraordinary Gentlemen volume coming out? The one called "Century"? It sounds pretty awesome and takes place in the early 1900s, then in the '60s, and then in 2008, and centers around the Moonchild. The chapter 3 story, set in 2008, introduces a fictional country called Q'umar, which is at war (it's reminiscent of the Iraq situation). Interestingly, "qumar" is an Arabic word meaning "moon."
