Happenstance

Oddly enough that's what I've got open right now, I'm just re-reading the first arc and yeah it is really good, much better than the mainline Spider-Man books these days.

I've got it in tpb and really enjoyed it which is why I wanted to pick it up again. It's just a shame that it had so many delays and Geoff Johns was on the way out by the end as I really liked the ending and where it left the DCU, pretty much fixing the New 52 properly but by the time it finished they'd already started to take other books another direction so most of what Doomsday Clock did was forgotten.

I've read it once but because I've never liked Frank Quitely's art it was hard to get beyond that so I decided to give it another shot. Finished buying some more. I think this should do it for the moment. There were others I wanted like the Cassandra Cain Batgirl series but as I've been out of the loop for so long I need to find out what's a re-release and what isn't. Annoyingly a lot of these books seem to have stopped around 2018 even though there was more to go. Anyway I'll just list the rest instead of posting a shit load of images: Wonder Woman by Greg Rucka - Vol. 1-3 Aquaman by Peter David - Books 1 & 2 Kingdom Come DC: The New Frontier Supergirl by Peter David - Books 1-4 Doomsday Clock: The Complete Collection Batgirl: Stephanie Brown - Vol. 1 & 2

Ok maybe not as good for my wallet as I thought. I hadn't realised that it's not just Superman books that are about £1.50 each but all DC books. Too good of a deal not to take advantage of so I think I'll probably end up getting a lot more!

Trying to make an effort to get back into digital comics so I grabbed a few that are currently on sale. Obviously I was highly influenced by my Superman trailer hype but £1.50 each is a lot cheaper than £60 each for a physical omnibus 😆

Brilliant first half. Obviously not happy with Spurs scoring so many but thankfully at no point did you ever think we wouldn't just come back and score another.

Rewatching trailers like this is always dangerous for me and my wallet. It's got me looking at what Superman omnibus' came out since I stopped collecting those...

Thankfully I get Paramount Plus included for free with a Sky Cinema subscription so I never had to pay. With the amount of Star Trek I watch though I probably still would have.

Just finished watching the final episode of Lower Decks. I'm gonna miss that show, it just got Star Trek.

I think its a promising start and has me more hopeful for Superman than the DCEU did, despite liking Henry Cavill. I do think they've added too many characters, feels like they're falling into the same trap of trying to build a Marvel style universe too quickly again but we'll see how it turns out.

Lol yep I had the exact same reaction. I need to pause it on Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner as well as that looked a bit too comic accurate and cheesy on the flash we saw.

Got my Steam Replay for 2024. No surprise that Spelunky is top again, that game really does have a hold over me!
