I was feeling a bit of the old nostalgia. How's tricks these days?

So now that most of the books have dropped at least their first issues, I'm curious about people's opinions on them. Lessee... We've got... Ms. Marvel She-Hulk Magneto Black Widow Avengers Undercover Fantastic Four Daredevil Punisher Ghost Rider Invaders X-Factor Avengers World...

I figured this deserves a thread distinct from GTA V. Anyway, the game went live this morning. I tried dicking around with it a bit this afternoon but R* is currently having server issues, which make it (as far as I can tell) impossible to play. I did get through the character creation...

Well? And I ask this question honestly. Why not?

Let's keep it restrained to DC and Marvel. If we're talking about underrated indie comics I could talk all day. But what books at Marvel and DC are really great but don't seem to get the attention they deserve? I nominate Batwoman and Avengers Arena. Batwoman is possibly the best book DC is...

http://www.gamespot.com/injustice-gods-among-us/videos/injustice-gods-among-us-announcement-trailer-637945 New game by NetherRealms, the studio who made the last Mortal Kombat game. A bunch of DC superheroes beat the hell out of each other in what seems to be the MK engine. It actually looks...

So, Batman #8 came out and with it, Doc's first backup story. Unfortunately, there's not much to say about it since it serves to set up the hook for the Bat-book crossovers, but it did the job well and was nicely written. Good use of pacing and all that. Just thought I'd mention it. I'll...

So, I found the first trade of this series at the LCS. 424 gorgeous, dense pages packed with beautiful art, hilarious dialogue, and brilliant design for 20 bucks. Apparently it was nominated for an Eisner a year or two back but I'd never heard of it. Has anyone else checked this out?

Soooo.... What's it like?

You had a very traumatic childhood. You lost your parents at a young age, and that can be emotionally and psychologically crippling. I get that. But some days, I feel like that's all you talk about. Now, I hate to be insensitive, but it's not like they're my parents. I never even met the guys...

and it's been over two years since I've had an infraction. TWO YEARS! By the law of averages, I should pile up enough infractions in the next few days to have me banned from life. Any thoughts on how I should approach this? Suggestions on what kind of dickery I might get up to?

Short and to the point. Myself and a friend are going to be putting together a writer's group. Essentially it's going to be a once a month challenge. There will be a rough criteria for each month (for example, restrictions to a particular genre or a stylistic focus) and everyone churns out a...

A page-long first draft snippet from something I'm working on. As always, vicious criticism is appreciated. Thanksgiving was the worst. In Chelsea's line of business, most holidays were work holidays. Halloween was the most obvious match for the masks set, but like any other segment of the...

So, I just recently read the first few issues of this. I was pleasantly surprised at how enjoyable it is. It may be the most charming superhero book on stands. Anyone else picked it up?

So, I was reading this article on TVTropes about the "Modern Age of Comics". It actually struck me as a pretty solid primer for the state of the contemporary superhero book. They make a glib metaphor of the modern period as the college ages in the maturity cycle of comic book narrative that...

Well?

Batman travels around the world training international heroes to become franchise Batmen. Awesome, right? Interview here.

I know a lot of people have been giving Jeph Loeb a lot of flak for his work on Hulk and Ultimatum, but do you think he peaked when he wrote the modernist masterpiece Ulysses? Will he ever write anything that good again, or is it all downhill from here?

So, I could have sworn we had a topic for this book but I can't find it anywhere. Is anyone else reading this book? As far as I can tell, I'm the only person on the face of the earth who will admit to liking it. When the book first started I was a little skeptical that it was just Garth Ennis...
