Dante Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 So Starfire is now a humanoid cat with goldfish memory in Red Hood. Reveal hidden contents
Daft Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Wow. I thought Supergirl was really good. Agreed it felt short. I bloody loved the art (although one of the close ups was really weird). There are some absolutely beautifully framed shots, too. I think her costume would have looked better with white leggings instead of bare skin while keeping the rad boots. Actually really surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I was expecting it to be bleh. Only picked it up because I love the cover. The writing was great, too. Reveal hidden contents When her super hearing tunes in and she can here the exact dialogue from the other issues. Yes. I need to read the next issue. At the end of this month I'm going to have a real hard time picking which books I'm going to stick with and which ones I'm going to drop.

He did Dynamo 5. Ugh. I don't want to buy Supergirl. Ugh. I might have to. UGH.

Shorty Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Boobwoman was ok. I mean Boobwoman. I mean Catwoman.
Paj! Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) Supergirl had nice art, though not much happened. Not bad though, and I'm interested (sorta) to see what happens next/it's obvious. It's just a shame they keep having to reinvent Supergirl every 5-10 years. But yeah, good. Red Hood & The Outlaws was fine, nothing really. Not sure how I feel about Starfire. Not really bothered about this one. Nightwing was enjoyable. I have Batman, Birds of Prey (dunno why I bought it, but was in the mood. Should have got Catwoman instead probably.) and Wonder Woman on the way in the post. It's from FP though, and I haven't got a shipping e-mail so I'm sure it'll be years before I see them. :/ Edited September 22, 2011 by Paj!
Daft Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Blue Beetle. Yawn. I almost like the premise but there's something really naff about its execution.
bryanee Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Batman #1, good stuff. I enjoyed it alot but I dont like how young Dick, Tim and Damien look. Bugs the crap out of me.
Happenstance Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 I didnt mind Tim and Damian but Dick definitely looked too young.
ReZourceman Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 I havn't read much this week, however Batman was absolutely awesome. I could talk more about it, but it was just incredibly well done, the reaffirmation that the Robin's have "high" security clearance and then Alfred on "highest" was a nice subtle touch and a nice pre-drinks for the ending. Great stuff. And I just finished Y The Last Man. Basically essential reading, the last volume pretty much blew me away. Extraordinarily well written.

Paj! Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 ...ok? Not really relevant to anyone here I assume. *s-face* Batman came in the post but I haven't had a moment to finish it yet. It seems jokes. WHERE IS WONDER WOMAN I HATE
ReZourceman Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Just thought the Flash memorabilia bit was amusing.
Dan_Dare Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Anyone read Schism? Really good stuff. The Fight finally kicked off and the reasons felt good. In character, reasonable on both sides and powerful. The way Aaron finally brings them to blows is really powerful and vicious too. The words are as brutal as the fight itself. Great stuff.
Paj! Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Yeah I loved Schism. Batman 1 was good, but I'm over the art already. Don't like Capullo's style...everyone's face was too nebulous and just nothing felt defined enough, I couldn't get a visual grasp. I didn't like his Joker either. I find some interps of Joker just really lacking sometimes. I think it's when he's too small or feminine or something. Or has horrible curly hair.
ReZourceman Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 (You're wrong btw Paj) :p P.S. People read Y : The Last Man.
Dan_Dare Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Have you read it all Rez? I'm picking it up again and just to Reveal hidden contents They're in Australia, about to head to Japan. Really enjoying it so far, just a lot to get through.
Paj! Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 I'm suprised Capullo's art had an inker, it seems to be completely drawn in ink. Maybe the inker is just crazy and does what he wants. I disliked how liney it all was.
Shorty Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Y - The Last Man was a great series. I didn't really care for the ending, except for the last couple pages.
Happenstance Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Ive got the first trade of Y but never ended up carrying on with it. I will have to get the rest at some point though.

I really do think the last volume is pretty much a masterpiece, the characterisation is second to none. I really love Volume (6 is it?) or 5, the one with the ship. Just....utterly awesome in my humble opinion. ------------- Started issue 1 of Gladstones School for World Conquerors. Very big! Not finished it in two breaks (20 minutes), I absolutely love it so far though! Cannot wait to read more! ------------- Thor arrived! ------------- Marineman volume 1 : A Matter of Life and Depth arrived. Seriously....this thing is meaty! Its 1-6 but it seems to have an absolute fuck tonne of extra content it is insane, its a got a really nice foreword and photo from Dave Gibbons and I am stunned by it, one of the nicest looking and feeling TPB's I have ever encountered! £12 from Play. I'll let you know what the story is like.

Happenstance Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Just saw this cover for Ultimate Spider-Man #5 (i think) and I really like it: Heres a link to the rest of the Marvel Dec Solicits http://www.newsarama.com/comics/marvel-december-2011-solicitations-110927.html
ReZourceman Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Indeed that is a god damn sick cover.
