Most of the ones I've looked at the sellers for, they're cheaper, but then with the P+P it's the same price if not more expensive. But that's not everyone obviously.

Beware I bought it off eBay. Though Amazon's rpices are pretty awesome IMO. In bookshops and comic shops graphic novels are always like £2-£4 too expensive to make me want to buy them, Amazon's got some at just below a fiver, most being £15 tops (and that's for the collections of 12 issues or so), until you get the specialist stuff and omnibuses.

I dunno if we're meant to contribute our own ideas or just discuss your ones but...my X-Men would be; Cyclops Starfire Archangel Changeling/Beast Boy Raven Quicksilver Though I kinda had an Amalgam-esque thing going on in my head, like I imagined Raven corresponding with Rogue, Starfire - Jean obvs, Cyclops - Robin etc. I suppose you could throw Atom Eve on instead of Starfire if you had to.

I have a sore stomach/am bloated (I'm not sure how that's supposed to feel), but I haven't eaten anything since lunch. I did go and lie down and read in bed for a bit, and if I'd just eaten and then gone to sleep, I'd understand, but I did neither. Ow...*lies on the floor in foetal position*

Image feels dirty, for the most part. Witchblade just reminds me of old men rubbing their crotches at the idea. Invincible wouldn't be that interesting in a world of people of the same power level or greater. But anyway. Who's ripclaw? I hate him already. And Static Shock?>!@?!? Of all the DC characters... Let's just stop lying and put Cyblade on the X-Men. She's a Psylocke ripoff in any case.

£4.96 Read all of Dark Avengers, but I loved and need. Plus cheap.

Is Final Crisis paperback out now? Amazon lists it as pre-order for a late July release?

Cube, I love your avvie, I associate it with you now and it goes well with your username colour. Your sig is a bit of a non-event, but it's clean and nice. -- I like the whip, the shape is present throughout the rest of the image, it gives it a bit of flow (imo). If anything, it's the bits of hair that poke in on the right that annoy me. Here's the original one, which I love. -
One my good friends (the third member of the Paj-Chair-trotterp trion) finished uni the other day so we met up last night. Marvel Nemsis: Rise of the Imperfects - Our favourite game. Too many jokes. Went into town to get a drink, only to have everywhere be closed, and then me be refused entry because I wore shorts and flip-flops. I hate dress codes these days. Just let me give you money to go into your shite establishment and be happy about it. People would enjoy their night more if they saw some tramp with pink hair shuffle in with flip-flops and shorts on. They'd love it. So got chips then walked home, but the walk is so short if you try hard enough. Played more Marvel Nemii.

Did the drums and piano when I was quite young but stopped, half due to money issues, half cause I wasn't actually interested at the time. Now I wish I'd kept on, but I didn't appreciate music very much when I was 8 or whatever. Big regret of mine, but one I can't really be annoyed with myself.

I enjoy it all, but the writing under the sig ruins it. "til" needs to be written properly, and the full stop annoys my eyes. It's needs to be more of a title, less of a sentence (IMO). -
Started reading a little bit more of Bendis' Daredevil run, but I love it so much that I stopped am going to pre-order the big Ultimate edition coming out at the end of the month. Now reading Bendis' Elektra, which is good. Chuck Austen's art is interesting, I'm not sure if it's good or bad. I like how simplified it is, and the with the light from the colouring, it adds, but yeah. I didn't know he even did comic art, thought he was just a writer. Also DD/Elektra related of late: As my avatar and sig show I finished both parts of Ultimate Daredevil and Elektra. I think it would be a pretty cool film adaptation of Elektra, though I doubt ANYONE'S going to touch the property now.

She's just phailing on every level. Ignore it. Except maybe the M.I.A produced song. That's sortof fun. And the Sia Furler songs are...alright. But they're generic Sia.
-
Technically looks way better. But not exactly romantic. Just tell them it's their own fault he looks like a boob.
-
It doesn't even need a film adaptation.
-
I don't think Nolan(s) said anything regarding the Joker's future because Ledger died months before the film opened, so they've avoided saying much on the matter... Unless I missed something.
-
I'm glad the Joker won't return...why would he/who'd want that? It would be jarring, odd and kinda bring the whole thing down, by trying to please people who liked TDK.
-
If a tiny Wasp was in that, I'd be creaming. --- I just bid on All-Star Batman (trade) on eBay...I feel dirty. But I actually want it. For some reason I seem to want things that I wasn't overly impressed with. I found myself contemplating buying Ultimatum the other day (and I really didn't like that - I enjoyed Batman marginally).

Brothers and Sisters "Where There's Smoke" This series felt like a return to the jokes of the first, with mysteries abounding, and I love how you can tell the end of the season is coming up. Re: Robert; Dark Reign: The Cabal Re: Kevin & Scotty; Second Coming Re: Holly; Messiah Complex Re: Sarah; The Return Of Bruce Wayne There's so many events going on. I love how Robert's storyline feels like the prelude to his joining the Secret Avengers as the new Swordsman, Kitty being unable to push to outwit due to her Indomitability. Also I approve the use of Open Your Eyes by Snow Patrol as the "climax song". -
No I needs to though. I'm not really sure how ready I am for that though. I'll ask my instructor next lesson, I'm pretty good at parallel parking and turns in the road...I can "drive" obviously...I think it's still about how I react to things outside the car and stuff. Hmm.

Oh, you'll hate this then. Frank Miller's art on the first one is fairly accessible compared to this. Though I prefer DKSA's art. It's just incredibly unique and I kinda hate that people get so up in arms about it (the entire thing actually), as though it HAD to live up to the first one. I just take it as one big art piece and enjoy it for what it is, not what it isn't. Lynn Varley's colouring is insane. Same with All-Star Batman...though tbf it was incredibly slow and had the wrong artist on it*, but I don't understand why people are so upset by it's existence. It's not great but it's interesting as a concept. (Though I think DKSA is better for what it is) *Though using Jim Lee plays into Miller's whole modern mission of critiquing how after his DKR, comics became darker and more gritty; he wants to focus on the awe and brightness of everything superheroic...Jim Lee epitomises that, the 90's connection, all the posing and stuff he used to include (and still does) etc etc. As a statement it works, but I think visually if he'd drawn it himself it would have gelled better. But yeah, I want a big canvas of Frank Miller art on my wall or something...LOVE it. I wish there was more art like his in mainstream comics...or even just more painted work and other less-seen ways of comic illustration. It just makes things more interesting. People like Alex Maleev add so much.

I can't really be arsed to read Avengers Prime. The thought of Iron Man's old suit really annoys my eyes. And I'm not really interested in Thor or Cap. --- What's people's views of The Dark Knight Strikes Again? It seems to be universally hated on the net, but I was watching/listening to some YT reviewers who actually felt the same way I do, and love it.
