FUCKS SAKE. Black Hand and Nekron are in the new Heroclix set, but they are chase figures. Which means their ebay value will be £50-£75. Brilliant. Fuck them. Why do they make such popular characters chase?!!??! UGGGHH.

 

But they announced the next sets. And this is one of the best sculpts ever.

Come on, while there's not a single title on that list that isn't good, there's not a single one that's "HOLY FUCKING SHIT THIS IS AWESOME". My point is that nowadays comics are once more becoming literature's weakest outing... in the sense that they're not fullfilling their potential! The themes in comics are gradually growing more juvenile.

:(

 

Also, I personally don't like Y The Last Man, never really got why people like it so much...

I feel after watching the Scott Pilgrim trailer that I should give the first volume a try, anyone else read it?

 

It's quite cool. ^^

I would argue to the grave that;

 

The Walking Dead

Kick Ass

Chew

 

All had that reaction from me. Things like Orc Stain, Four Eyes are completely unique and highly detailed absolutely beautiful books, in the sense that certain films don't give the reaction of "OH MY FUCKING GOD" but are still mind blowing pieces of work.

 

What books from the glory days you're talking about would you note are better than what we have now?

Almost all my faves are from the glorious 80's/90's golden age of comics! As far as series go, it doesn't really get any better than The Invisibles, Transmetropolitan, The Sandman, Preacher or Bone!

I won't get into one shots like V for Vendetta or Ronin.

Do you actually read The Walking Dead?

 

Not anymore I don't. I read it all the way up to after

the governor dies

. 50 or 51 or something.

 

I quite liked how the characters embrace the whole "downfall of civilization" thing, but other than that I was severely underwhelmed by it's lack of themes. Yeah, it's pretty cool, but it's got nothing to say! *sigh*

 

In other 'Oxigen_Waste is wrong' news

 

Wait, you're actually trying to tell me you think modern comics are BETTER than the ones I mentioned? I mean, I get that you'd defend them, but to actually say they're better?
