Anyone not popping a boner over Reach is either: A) Wrong. B) Unable to watch the various videos about Forge World, Firefight 2.0, Multiplayer, Campaign and all the rest. C) Of questionable moral fiber and prone to sexual deviancy.

I have an idea for a website but need some feedback

done and done. Good luck! -
Yeah if you're chillin with flight, invulnerability and super strength it's cool but being a totally out of control coma inducing teen isn't exactly funsies.

I just received my new Invincible Iron Man Hardcover. Vol. 4 collecting Stark: Disassembled One of my favorite arcs of the run so far- the interplay between the internal, mental journey of Stark and the excellent ensemble adventure in the real world is brilliant. The art is frequently off the hook too- especially when The Ghost and Doctor Strange get involved.
-
Do you not have any friends to stay with?
-
You'd hope so. That's not Nova's current look, either.
-
Yeah it's kind of dumb- Nova is easily one of the most powerful characters in the MU now so the idea that he'd return to one piddly district in a little Earth city is patently absurd.
-
Make it so!

Shit the bed that's brilliant. AOA got me in to comics, so I'd love a proper copy. You should read it Paj- especially as you're quite up on your X-Men you'd really enjoy the elaborate switcheroo. Everyone's in the wrong place but it feels so right.
-
Succinct, Jamieson. I like your style.
-
I quite liked Hush. The art is spectacular and the writing is decent. For Loeb. oh and re: Rebirth- the actual Green Lantern book (#1 onwards) is way better, though it takes a bit longer than it should to get fully in to the Green Lantern mythos.

I'm not far off this. I eat any and everything in sight at any given opportunity, basically. I have a pretty epic appetite. I put it down to my parents not tolerating us being fussy eaters as kids- we were given food, not choice! It sounds harsh put like that but some of my relatives let their kids be picky and pandered to their complaints and now the kids eat like shit.

Epic's game reminds me alot of BLACK and Borderlands, which is good. I loved both.
-
I actually really like the telepathy in the X-men movies where it's more snatched thoughts and so on- untill Xavier takes over Sabretooth. That's a quality scene.
-
New thread, I reckon. Yup.
-
That's got to be about Superior, surely? Or his new UK anthology.
-
wouldn' be inclined to compare them, personally.
-
Aye, consider me piqued or whatever. Some kind of viewtiful joe philosophy applied to the shooter genre is definitely new and worth looking out for. It could be awful but if it isn't i think it'll be a hell of a game.
-
Does nobody else find these kind of emotions positive? Sure it's uncomfortably intense, stressful and all the above but, personally, I've always found it exciting.

Just bought Stark: Disassembled HC for £9.99 on Amazon. Boom!
-
Preach. It also had that nightcrawler scene and the fight between Wolverine and Deathstrike- my two favorite portrayals of super powers on screen to date. Oh, and Iceman's 'coming out' scene is genius.

What I meant by storage is that you need boxes and shit, whereas trades sit on your bookshelf and can be easily picked up and revisited. Singles are also very weak, physically. I've not seriously damaged any of mine yet but they're not exactly durable. a good trade is much better.
-
They're not worth the money dude. Don't do it. FP in Sheffield charge £3.30 for Marvel and DC books, which is outrageous. You can buy Marvel trades of the same issues for about £10 and you get a Much better quality of print and storage too. Single issues are as hard to find good storage for as they are expensive, while trades are easier to keep, cheaper and you can read them off the shelf.

Haaha I saw your first post on The Wire and I knew that was coming. Glad you like it- everyone does, really. Personally, I've finally gotten around to Six Feet Under. More HBO goodness and very much in the spirit of what makes The Wire great- slow, thoughtful plotting, dense detail, naturalism and depth over shock and action. It's probably the strongest piece of character fiction I've ever seen, in fact. It's brave and occasionally controversial too, with a fantastic performance from Michael C Hall as David, a gay and initially closeted funeral director. His role is, I think, responsible for several leaps forward in the realistic portrayal of gay men on TV. It's basically brilliant. everyone needs to watch it.

Rebirth is good but I think including loads of the JLA etc in that was a mistake as loads of characters in it meant nothing to me. Saying that though, I could tell there was a lot of chaff attached to the franchise; Rebirth felt like the books clearing their throat, so to speak. Great series, anyway.
