Do we ever have buy threads? I really new to /co/. Spent most of my time reading Manga and watching Anime, but have grown pretty tired of it. Walked into a local comic store and grabbed a few things that seemed pretty interesting.

Look for /shelf/ in the archives, but yeah, they're basically just the equivalent of buyfag threads. We tend to have them about once a week.

I bought 120 comics for 60 at my LCS from the 50 cent bin.

Mostly got L.E.G.I.O.N. and 80s Captain Atom comics, but I also got some Starman, Blue Devil, Amethyst, Legends of the DC Universe, Legion of Superheroes, New Titans, Trenchcoat Brigade, Dreaming, Hawkworld, Justice League Europe, and DC Showcase comics as well.

Most of them were middling to good. The Captain Atom series was completely bsffling6, as the 80s series is a complete rip-off of Alan Moore's Miracle Man, which I did not expect.

I've always wanted to get into these style of comics, but I never could. Most of it just that cape stuff almost always drives me off as I like adventure/fantasy more than modern day and crime fighting/super villains.

Damn. Heh. Meant to say baffling.

In the Captain Atom, it retconed all of his past adventures and rogues gallery being a simulation created by the government. The exact same situation that occured in the Red King Syndrome arc of Miracleman.

All editions of the book are in black and white. I love Milo Manara's art, but I was vastly disappointed by the story. What it really boils down to is a man trying to babysit a basically mentally retarded woman, which makes her sexualization kind of disturbing.

Has anyone read Trip To Tulum that ran in 2000 AD's Crisis. Now that truly was a masterpiece.

yeah the story isn't great, but I still enjoy it for the art. And like I said, the times where he stops the story and just talks about art and concepts of comics is great. Basically, I like it all except the story. I haven't read Trip to Tulum, is that written by him? I find Manara is much better when he has a writer, except for Paper Man, that's a decent comedy. My favorite of his is Indian Summer, written by Hugo Pratt.

Of course! Thanks for making the new one. Nice of you to blind grab stuff, sometimes those are the best purchases, broaden your horizons and all that.

On the subject, a late package finally came in this last week, Shame was storytimed in aco a few weeks back, so I bet you could find it in the archives, it is worth every beautiful and haunted water color in it. Also tits
Also, finally Swampthing 6 came into being in the land of Mex, instant buy. The editorial says they are going to bring Morrison's Doom Patrol as hardcovers of the 6 tps, which I dont think I'll get. DP has way too much wordplay for a sketchy translation and 3 tps in english for around 25 bucks each, sounds way nicer.

I got the 2 final issues of the 1999 miniseries. I had read the first one, and was enthralled with it. It definitely shares the same charm as Gaiman's BoM series as well ad Rieber's run on the title.

Now I have to find issue two.

If I want to read most of my comics I'll either buy trades or read them online. It prevents me from handling them too much. But when I do get my weekly pickups I will read them before bagging and boarding them.

As for the Tigra thing, it's her first solo series after becoming Tigra. I'm thinking of hunting down Marvel Giant Size Creatures where she first transforms and appears with Werewolf By Night. Why the sudden interest in Tigra? Beats me. I guess I thought it'd be cool to get some of her stuff in the off chance Marvel decides to salvage her character, and push a new heroine to sell. Well that and I like her gimmick I suppose. I could post some of my notable floppies if you like.

Yeah I was. For the most part I never consider characters “bad”, just needing a revamp or perhaps utilized differently. Tigra for example has a solid gimmick, she just needs to get past the fetish shit. I’d keep her away from Pym’s baggage because unfortunately Marvel is determined to drag him through the mud.

Anyway these are some notable floppies in my collection. Some were gifts, others I bought

maybe. it's more along the lines of once upon a time archie sued a guy for making a joke list of top ten future archie plot lines in the 90's including crisis on infinite archie's and the death of archie. they sued him with bullshit claims only to get told by the judge it fell under fair use. when they did the death of archie comic in life with archie, the life with archie issues where dozens of different archies meet up and afterlife with archie stuff i took pictures of my issues and tweeted to them "remember that time in the 90's when you sued someone for joking about you doing a death of archie and crisis of infinite archies plot line?" they immediately banned me.

so for me the stuff with thier characters like this is basically a perverse f-u to archie since it's pretty much the grim and gritty shit keeping them alive now.

YES! An actual ongoing! I'm interested in knowing who it is. I knew about Priest doing the FCBD but I doubt he is doing the ongoing. This is one I'm going to make sure to grab though.

well Playboy has been going away from porn for a while now, they even cut out nudity for a few years and only recently brought it back. Plus Playboy has a long history with comics and creators, I have been thinking about getting a Playboy comic collection, there's a few on Amazon.

I have no clue who I would hope they get as a writer. but I hope they actually get someone good, Vampi seems the one at Dynamite that they haven't seemed to land for a while.

The Adventure Zone flows better when it comes to character interactions because, well, all the members involved are family--three brothers and their father. The youngest of the three brothers is the DM and the other three are the party that tromps around the magical sandbox. The DnD/fantasy-centric playthrough, Balance, is definitely worth a listen. Lots of comedy with some heavier moments, but admittedly toward the end it's more like an interactive cutscene than a playthrough. There's a bit of fast and loose play with DnD rules in comparison to, say, Critical Role, but the enthusiasm of the boys more than makes up for it.

In the current arc, Amnesty, they're doing a playthrough of a different system (Monster of the Week I think it was called--go ask on /tg/ if you want any more info on that) set in some alternate universe modern West Virginia backwater where cryptids are real, magic is a thing, and the FBI are incompetent. Think X-Files with a dash of Twin Peaks and a hulking tablespoon of oldschool Buffy.

just to add some more context. Hugh Hefner is pretty known for pushing at the social boundaries and to push for womens rights and stuff. Where this mainly showed was in the comics in Playboy, some were just silly jokes but others were pushing very progressive ideas about sexuality.

Caught up on Duggan's Savage Sword. Didn't like the story, didn't like the dialogue, didn't like the art. Covers are amazing though.

Aaron's Barbarian on the other hand has good art and writing (and good covers, Ribic is no Ross but he's no slouch). Surprisingly one of Marvel's best titles at the moment. Not even giving Belit a chance because the interiors look like a webcomic.

yeah I don't like Savage Sword at all, somehow /co/ seems to have such a hateboner for Aaron that they automatically praise Duggan's SS, which is really terrible in comparison. And don't bother with Belit, it's fucking garbage. But the best Conan book goes to Avengers No Road Home, Zub has a lock on Conan.

I have No Road Home in my backlog so I will see if your claim holds true. In the meanwhile I'm enjoying Barbarian more than any other big 2 title. Maybe I'm blase about superheroes.

Savage Sword really is terrible though. It's shameful to have such scribly sophomoric art in the major relaunch of Conan, in a title that was famous for incredible artwork from Neal Adams, Barry Windsor Smith, John Buscema, among others. If they wanted to do it justice they would have got someone like Coipel, Opena, Dauterman or Del Mundo.

Barbarian art is pretty damn good. But I also think Marvel knows that it won't sell as well as Thor anymore, too many years of being off everyone's radar that it will be hard to get Conan to sell like Superheros. So why waste an artist who could be doing bigger selling books on Conan? It's a shame but that's the business.

I'm pretty new to /co/. I've only recently started more /co/ kind of stuff as I used to be heavily into anime, but haven't watched anything in a few years. I've started with the most common stuff lately, like Gravity Falls, SU, SRa, Hilda and Adventure Time. I've found that the story telling in eastern media has gotten kind of stale as I've read most of the stuff I'd enjoy since I've been doing that for about 24 years now. Only real thread I've even asked about comics and stuff here was one related to Sword of Glass

Shelf threads always seem to be a bit more about bragging about scoring some stuff like an omnibus edition, or a deluxe/absolute edition or whatever Marble uses (those Epic collections?) and toys and stuff. I used to chime in on those sometimes when folks were asking questions about getting into comics there, but since I don't have any shelves and most of my purchases are digital (yes, purchases - not pirated books), the threads really don't feel like a place for me, whereas a general discussion about LCS, buying/consuming (versus pure pirating and never supporting a book), and books and series in general isn't a bad thing.

Sorry, son. I didn't get shit on, I just didn't find anything I really wanted to participate in with the shelf threads I checked out. And, I know you're not paying attention, but if you were, you'd read that I typed I answered the questions of others asking about recommendations/suggestions, etc.

Some of those shelf bros seemed more interested in talking about their purchases than in answering those questions or their responses were those out of date or old JPEG recommendation images.

Don't confuse my lack of interest with someone tricking, me feeling tricked, or actual harm/injury, real or imagined, being imposed against me or felt by me.

Bragging was, to an extent, the wrong word. And I have cash, but I tend to move around a lot and I've gotten used to living in small spaces. I don't even have room for DVDs so I've been getting rid of those (which I have in boxes stashed under shit) and just going all digital.

As I said, I'm buying digital comics and epubs, movies, or paying for streaming. I don't have physical space, it's not a finance things.

And sometimes I do go to LCS because I like the feel of books and then I buy stuff and gift it to someone or to my local library (where I also check out a lot of stuff).

You should just pick up the first 25 issues for $5-10 and get it custom bound if you really fall in love with the material. It's largely self-contained, and that way you can enjoy it without financially supporting Byrne, which is also a plus.

I haven't really liked any of the Alien comics I've read. I feel like nobody seems to know how to handle xenomorphs in a comic format.

There are two comics that might be worth reading mostly because they get brought up here relatively often. Aliens: Stronghold due to one fairly popular character in it, and Aliens: Labyrinth because it has some nauseating body horror. I'm not saying either comic is particularly good, though. Just saying that they have some of the most memorable Alien comic moments, and they get mentioned the most often whenever we have a xenomorph comic thread.

People literally did "read it for the articles"
Think of almost any 1960s-1970s author, and they probably had a few short stories published in it

>The magazine has a long history of publishing short stories by novelists such as Arthur C. Clarke, Ian Fleming, Vladimir Nabokov, Saul Bellow, Chuck Palahniuk, P. G. Wodehouse, Roald Dahl, Haruki Murakami, and Margaret Atwood.
>The novel Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury, was published in 1953 and serialized in the March, April and May 1954 issues of Playboy.

The Paper Girls book is gorgeous, even nicer than the first deluxe edition. Looks blue in the picture but it's reflective and looks blue or silver depending on how the light hits it.

The Fall 2019 DC Edelweiss catalog is up
https://www.edelweiss.plus/#catalogID=4348306&page=1
It's the first one 100% since the AT&T buyout. There are 158 items in it, and the Fall 2018 one had 191 items.
There are a few repeats of things that were in the Summer 2019 catalog too (like Luthor).
An observation I've made is that they seem to be moving away a bit from labelling collections as "1, 2, 3" etc. There are lots of smaller hardcovers in here too, which seems to be Didio's latest grand idea.

A couple unexpected things include
>Batman: Gotham Knights: Transference
>Collects Batman: Gotham Knights #1-12.
Something like that could have been Gotham Knights Book One, but it gets a subtitle instead.

>Batwoman: Elegy New Edition
This is a big "why?" They released a "Batwoman by Rucka" that included this and the arc that came after it a year or so ago

>Batwoman: Haunted Tides
>Collects Batwoman #0-11.
First half of the New 52 series

>Stargirl by Geoff Johns
>Collects: Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E. #0-14, JSA: All Stars #4, and stories from DCU Heroes Secret Files (1999) and DCU Villains Secret Files (1999)
Thanks for the /tv/ show

>The Flash of Two Worlds Deluxe Edition
>in this hardcover featuring THE FLASH #123, #129, #137, #151 and #173

>Man and Superman: The Deluxe Edition
>Marv Wolfman

>Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis Book One
>Collects Aquaman #40-49.
This was the Post-Infinite Crisis run that was Busiek doing King Arthur. Book Two (if it ever happens) would be a few Tad Williams issues

>Superman: The City of Tomorrow
>Loeb, Collects Superman #151-154, Superman: Y2K #1, Superman: The Man of Steel #95-98, Adventures of Superman #573-576 and Action Comics #760-763

Monstress isn't really that good even in terms of worldbuilding because the majority of the worldbuilding doesn't even happen in the story itself but are blurbs at the ends of chapters. The characters are boring and cliche if they're not irrelevant backstories and the lore itself is just typical seen and steampunk shit that you've seen before.

I am. Most of Veitch's stuff was collected once, a long time ago. He's a bit poisoned right now because he's a 9/11 truther.
Now, if they were collecting the Doug Wheeler stuff I would be confused.

I don't think anyone cares about Rick Veitch's trutherism. It's a controversy. His comics are still beloved by a niche fanbase. I think the real problem with having a Rick Veitch Swamp Thing omnibus is that his run ends on an incomplete note, due to his infamously cancelled Swamp Thing 88. Because of this, if DC were to collect his run in omnibus format, they would either have to shoehorn in the Doug Wheeler Swamp Thing issues that complete his aborted storyline, which I don't think anyone wants, or they would have to bring back Rick Veitch to write new material for the omnibus, which would be problematic as his vision for the climax of his run contrast with Swamp Thing continuity after him leaving the title.

The fuck are you smoking? There's fuck all in the story that isn't explained in the blurbs and what is there is mentioned in the comic often brought up and then never mentioned again or is just a nebulous thing that you can find in pretty much any other YA fantasy novel that the average person would take for granted.

I think I'm actually more shocked that Brave & the Bold omnibus 3 was cancelled, but a Nancy A Collins Swamp Thing omnibus was greenlit.

I just cannot believe that the latter has more potential for sales than the former, even with a tv show in the works.

>>106983369
I still recommend buying it off eBay. Bryne is worth reading, if not necessarily worth supporting.

>>106983632
To be honest, the idea of supporting writers/artists to finish unresolved storylines is so appealing. There's already limited mass market appeal, but offering the chance to read abandoned storylines is enough to make me buy any ridiculous hardcover. Remember how coveted the shitty .jpg scans of Swamp Thing 88 were? I know fans who actually printed them out and included them in their custom binds of the run.

>The Millar/Moz stuff is large enough for an omni the size of Collins
Then again, DC doesn't like to phase out softcovers that still sell, which is why they've never condensed Sandman into larger softcover volumes, and Moore always sells.

Not really. A limited series comic and a graphic novel can be the same length. You can't say that about a season of TV versus a movie. A graphic novel is just a comic released all at once. It could be 50 pages like Hellboy Midnight Circus, it could be 600 pages like Blankets.

Comics come out periodically, issue 1, issue 2, et cetera. They can be collected later in a trade like Watchmen, but Watchmen isn't a graphic novel because it wasn't released all at once. That's the difference. GN's aren't serialized.

Makes sense for Iron Man tie-ins because Fraction was writing both books. Did Fear Itself need 150 tie ins? Probably not.

Watch Tangled: the Series/Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure. It's a TV sequel to the Disney Princess movie Tangled, with the same voice actors as the film, original songs by the film's composer Alan Menken, an experienced crew with many in the industry since the 90's, and a plot based on realistic human emotions and political conflicts, as well as mysterious magical cosmic lore.

It is made for little girls instead of 4chan manchildren, so there are lighter, more moral-based episodes, and some of it's pretty weak, but even those advance the characters and can be entertaining.

What are you guys reading? I recently just finished 52 and I thought it was going to be epic but it was really just underwhelming. Most of the stories have really long setups and the payoffs don't really seem to be of worth. I was expecting a lot from the Dibny story and then the ending just suddenly came out of the left field. Makes sense for the character but still.

Googling and grabbing a random page, this looks good. But after I felt like I was getting bored of the first volume, I flipped through it and every page looked exactly the same, so I guess that changes at some point at least.

Anyone here been reading Self/Made? One of the most interesting comics I've read. Each issue completely reinvents the world it's set in, origionally about an AI who becomes sentient but it follows her as she moves from one setting to the next, each time finding a higher reality. And this recent issue Has her leaving reality altogether and maybe dying, maybe finding god?? I have no clue

Dreaming's had pretty good art. The latest two issues have had a different artist, but have also focused more on Daniel himself.
I haven't read House of Whispers or BoM.
Lucifer is better than the last thing it got as a series, and the art has been pretty good if you like Max Fiumara's style. The book is really self-conscious though because the writer knows that he can't top or really continue Carey's story, so it's just telling a story that is of dubious canonicity.

Nah. I'm not a fan of his use of Rose, the fact that Rose just pushes an immortal stranger God to deflower her daughter, the fact that Daniel fucking kills people for looking at his girlfriend with lust in their eyes. This arc should've been 1 issue long because the plot is fine but characterization is crap and he tries too hard to be epic and match the original feel of early Vertigo but fails.

Not well executed

Not what hapenned the previous numerous times. And remember, I'm not talking about the random calamities around the world, I'm talking about Daniel making a group of guys walking into the ocean to drown because they wanted to fuck his girlfriend. Y'know, there's a reason Dream changed in Sandman but Spurrier writes him the same except more clueless because he doesn't understand he is still Dream of The Endless, third oldest sibling. Theres a lot he can do with The Dreaming, no point in making the series into Sandman 2.

Gaiman wasn't against it, he hand picked everyone cause he thought these stories should be told.

But I guess it all comes down to different tastes. The Dreaming 8 was the best single issue comic I have read in a long long time. I had to read it multiple times cause it just worked perfect for me

Gaiman being against it wouldn't have changed shit though, he doesnt own the characters so he can't block anyone from using them. At least while he's still alive creators will still politely ask him for his blessing but theres a reason he said he wish he owned the characters.
Instead of saying the issue is perfect and 10/10 and the single best issue why dont you tell me what actually worked for you? Because to me the new arc feels more like Sandman 2 than The Dreaming and I'd much rather see new characters or underused characters than a subpar continuation to Rose Walker's story.

There are some lines that just hit perfectly for a tragic love story like the one about how his emotions are becoming all edges and cutting everything, that is perfect for a tragic love poem. The art is stellar too and it is breathy and flows so smoothly with the story.

Especially now with Lone Sloane being released in a few days. I do plan on getting Valerian, Blacksad and Shangri-la by Mathieu Bablet. Elric and Requiem look amazing too but the price is kinda high so I'll wait for some promotion.
I also have a few italian comics like Tex, Dylan Dog, Julia Kendall, Zagor and Nick Raider. These are like crack/heroin to me especially Dylan Dog and J Kendall.

Bendis just writes like shit and adds terrible OCs to the mix. He's never done lasting damage like completely rewriting every aspect of lore on runs he does. Green Lantern and Shazam! are effectively fucked because of Johns.

Johns has no executive power. The current co-publishers are Didio and Lee.
Johns was coo and president of Film, then he got fired when Justice League flopped.

I’m not defending Johns (hadn’t even mentioned him), only responding to the post asking me why I don’t like Didio. I don’t care about Johns.

It’s a simple answer because I don’t read modern comics, I only collect older material. Didio has crippled one of the most promising hardcover programs in DC history in order to squeeze more money from the fan base, worse he cancelled it NOT due to lack of sales BUT because the sales were strong. They reasoned that smaller collections priced worse would be better because DC knows the collectors are over a barrel. Also, DC fucked themselves decades ago with the contracts developed in the late 70’s and 80’s.

DC constantly changes direction with their collections, any buyfag/shelf enthusiast has been a victim of this.

Didio and Lee are the publishers at DC. Didio's the one who usually talks about why something is cancelled when it happens, and confirms when something isn't cancelled.
They technically are above the VP that directly runs the department.
I think Lee is currently the CCO (chief creative officer) too after Johns got demoted to regular writer.

That’s Fine. Now you have to acknowledge that there are not only two products on the market one being marvel master work and the other being a DC omnibus. You could be comparing that marvel master work to a marvel omnibus and by doing that you’d see the masterwork doesn’t make any sense being priced the way it is

This is always weird to me because while DeMatties wrote the Spectre run, Johns was the dude who made Hal the Spectre in the first place.

Hal as the Spectre was an attempt to salvage the "he's a villain now" status quo. It didn't really work out, and the sales were very weak.
It doesn't really read like a "Spectre" series either. I actually thought it was a bit of a retread of Dematteis' Doctor Fate (similar character beats and themes).
It even has the same title for the final issue
>The Beginning of the Beginning
vs
>The Beginningless Beginning/The Endless End
It had nice art from young Sook and P Craig Russel though, and eventually Breyfogle.
Then JMD repeated some of the same plot points when he wrote that New 52 Phantom Stranger series

His autograph. Maybe the photo doesn’t do it justice but to my eyes it’s clearly a graphite pencil, not ink or printed at the factory or anything like that. Why does this brand new book have Walter Simonson‘s autograph inside of it ? Was he on the assembly line signing them as they came off the press? Did he sign x amount of them and they sent me one of the signed copies by accident? Really puzzled

No, that's just your delusion. Geoff Johns is not a freelance writer, he was one of DC's big boys and he WROTE that comic with his frequent collaborator EVS. The fact that you're pushing this retarded made up idea that he didn't actually write the damn thing but they just used his name on the cover is retarded.

I'm not even going to say his Barry stuff as horseshit because those first several issue of the ongoing were nice, but rebrith sucked massive balls and not because of the reboot, that happened two years after.

Question for the thread. I've already got the Kirby Thor Epics, so which other Thor ones are worth buying?

Do you already have the Simonson run in paperback or omnibus format?

A Kingdom Lost and Runequest make a nice pair. I’ve always had a soft spot for the DeFalco run, so War of the Pantheons and In Mortal Flesh were fantastic.

Oh, and if you enjoy the DeFalco EC's you'll be pleased to know a 3rd volume is on the way later this year.

Super underrated run incidentally, a victim of poor timing more than anything. DeFalco had to follow Simonson and his take was decidedly retro, even the art (by Frenz) was Kirby-esque...in a time when the future-Image guys were bringing in EXTREME belts and bullets style. Thor faced the Celestials, Egyptian death gods, the Juggernaut, Annihilius, all manner of hero from Quasar to Ghost Rider to the New Warriors and even the dreaded Mongoose!

It was too late for the Bronze Age and too early for the retro revival and kirby pastiches that came into favor years later.

It'll take a while for me to get them all, but I'll go chronologically with the ones you've suggested then. DeFalco's sounds like my kinda thing. Thanks again for the help!

Sounds good. Tread carefully with the other two (A Kingdom Lost / Runequest) if you're not familiar with them. Together they comprise Moench's run but A Kingdom Lost is decidedly stronger material than Runequest.

I suppose that's a true statement for most writer's, with the last part of their run always dragging but I figured it's worth mentioning.

Got my tax return recently, and due to work issues, I can't spend it on the vacation I usually do. So a lot of it is going into books. Here's the first wave, more to come.

It's not like you have to get the new version, you can still find the original if you care that much.
But you won't even try to look, will you? No, you have to be ANGRY. ANGRY ABOUT MARVEL.

But that's not what the anon implied. They probably want the old colouring which is either in now-usually-expensive TPBs, or a hard to find, expensive omnibus.
The best options are the TPBs or waiting to see when they eventually put the stuff in Epic Collections, which could take a few years. They're not being that unreasonable

There are certain comics, particularly ones that experimented with odd color palettes and art styles, that really suffer under digital recoloring.

Simonson's Thor would be the perfect example...if not for The Killing Joke. It's not enough to ruin the experience for me but I can sympathize with those that feel it does. No point in getting hostile about it.

Nice, hope you enjoy it. If you liked the original Kirby/Lee run I can't imagine you'll dislike the DeFalco/Frenz run.

Why are you so triggered on a recoloring opinion you massive faggots. DC did the same shit with Neil Adam's Batman which sucks as well and the original ones are hard to get.

It's a nice teen romance/teen angst/slice of life thing. I've been reading a lot of YA graphic novels lately because A) some of them are really good, and B), I've gotten a little burnt out on super-heroes and action stuff in recent years. Never hurts to have some variety in your comics diet.
