Reading JLA #1 felt like reading a What If? or Ultimates title. Just seems strange. Not sure what I really expected as someone who"s never really read much DC anyways. Green Lantern meeting Batman was funny though... "you"re not just some guy in a bat costume, are you?"

Yeah I missed all of the stuff involving Havoc going to the Starjammers, is that in War of Kings or something else?

I"m enjoying this Uncanny X-Force arc a lot, mostly beause I am in the minority that loves the Age of Apocalypse world. - Looks like as a result of the arc Archangel may become a big X-Men villain? He"s basically turning into Apocalypse, and has assembled 4 horseman at the end of the current...

Sorry man. I used to work at the AMC 6 that is (was?) across from their Metrocenter location when I went to the Art Institute in 98. Wasn"t buying comics at the time but was neat to go in and hang out. Great atmosphere, great people, great store.

Not sure any AZ comic readers in this thread, but found out that Atomic Comics closed its doors yesterday, that"s shitty If the name sounds familiar to others, they were pretty well known as far as comic shops go, and was also the name of the comic shop the characters in the movie Kick Ass...

Fantastic Four ended at 588, FF will get to issue 12, and Fantastic Four resumes with issue 600 in November. FF will keep going. Four | Comic News | News | Marvel.com I"ve been so annoyed with FF that I didn"t even read the last issue. I like the inHumans, but to abruptly pause the FF just...

I"ve got several titles I"m interested in and will add to my pull list initially, but will probably torrent the rest. Any I like I"ll probably pick up physical copies of and add them to the list too. McFarlane made a really good point about having your whole universe release issues the same...

Big events have checklists like the above you can Google up ([event name] Reading Order may produce better results), however for the number 1"s, just buy whatever is interesting and keep buying (or downloading) the next issues and go from there. As far as I can tell they"re not an event...

Marvel announced at SDCC that they"re going same-day-digital too, starting with Spider-Man #666 (start of Infestation or whatever) and Uncanny X-Men #1 (November). Comic-Con: Marvel Comics Going Same Day Digital - Comics News at IGN

I am not even sure why I am buying half the books I am picking up on Wednesday. I cringe seeing half a wall of Fear Itself tie ins and then 1-2 still end up in my hands as I walk to the register. War of the Green Lanterns seemed kinda cool. Liking the Green Lantern part of DC more and more...

Picked up Red Wing on Wednesday and really liked it, a couple of those images remind me of Geoff Darrow"s art. Red Wing is also one of the picks of the week over onFresh Ink

Schism #1 should have been the Prelude book. Glad it"s here though, mutants and sentinels yay.

Just finished reading Blackest Night and Brightest Day. Read too many of the side books along with Blakcest Night it and started getting bored, but as I started to skip them towards the end it got better and better. Brightest Day I didn"t like as much, but thought it was pretty good. Helped that...

Fear itself starting to lose me, feels like a 3 issue event spread over 7. It also seems like they doubled the font size in number 4.

I used to be into the indies, knew a lot of the writers and artists when I collected as a teenager (and got to meet a lot of them as they came in to sign), but now a days if it hasn"t had 900 issues over multiple titles and some nostalgic tie to when I collected previously I just can"t get into...

March to Protest DC Reboot Designs at the San Diego Comic-Con 2011! - Nerd Reactor As if protesting in July will do anything about it. What would be worse is "oh, lets redo everything again in 3 months because customers are unhappy" after they sell more copies the month these number 1s hit...

Shop I go to has the solicitations up by date, probably end up getting 2-3 a week. MaximuM Comics ? DC's Relaunch is ready to add to your pull list!

I buy no DC (downloaded and currently reading through Blackest Night though) and will probably pick up several of these number 1s, the digital combo of JLA I think it was, and probably download a few to see if they"re worth buying before adding them to my pull list. I"d just download them...

It just seems like they"re doing so much that we"re going to get a beyonder/infinity gems level "make it like it was" and a bunch of stuff will revert to being OK. Maybe while we"re at it we"ll get a "there"s lots of mutants" to undo the Scarlet Witch"s doing and enter a new era of mutants. I...

With stuff like "Paris is a complete loss" I"m kinda expecting a big reset with few exceptions at the end of Fear Itself.

I like the cosmic stuff but hate the talking animals. Annihilators: Earthfall is the next mini featuring the team and will still have the coon and groot secondary story included. "Annihilators: Earthfall" unveiled by Marvel - Comics News - Digital Spy

lol, hadn"t read Herc yet because I was behind, that"s hilarious though. Really happy with his title so far. Another I"m liking is Moon Knight. Kinda bleh on Fear Itself too. Summer long crossover that feels way too slow and way to fast in parts. I am not sure why im bothering with some of...

I see that"s filled in a lot more since that link was posted... I wonder what Stormwatch will be, loved that title even though I stopped reading comics 30 or so issues in (the whole issue 25 coming out a year+ in advance was kinda spiffy). Grifter, Voodoo nice to see, not sure what other...

Need the same service across devices too. I"d consider paying for Marvels Digital subscription stuff for a month or two and enjoy it"s limited offering ... on my iPad ... but I"m only allowed to purchase titles a la cart.

Yeah, better exposure + sales/TPB = success for digital comics IMO. Otherwise it won"t grow beyond the number of people using the apps now and won"t get people who pirate to stop. If I could subscribe to say, the X-Men, Avengers, Green Lantern, Spider-Man or something like that, for like...

DC Declares Digital Pricing For Relaunch, Retailer Incentives - Comic Book Resources Grifter confirmed to be one of the new titles. DC also trying to get the word out that it"s not a reboot...

Valiant is coming back in 2012. Go go Bloodshot and XO Manowar. Wonder if they"ll have chromium covers for their number 1s. Valiant Entertainment Returns To Publishing In 2012 - Comic Book Resources Favorite title from them I think was Armorines Also, really disappointed in Fear itself...

I liked some othe Wildstorm properties, would be nice if they took this opportunity to introduce them into the DC Universe.

I"m interested in the digital day and date releases. Guessing they"ll be the same as cover price though as to not piss off stores. Will be interested in trying out some of these new titles, with all the 52 week series and other things they seem to always have going on I don"t feel like...

I"m a mainstream Marvel guy, but outside of the Age of X arc I feel like im buying some of these titles out of habit... Spider-Man as well as the whole Fear Itself stuff is very bleh at the moment. Avengers tricked me into picking it up because of all of the Infinity Gem stuff. Favorite title...

Looking forward to this Age of Apocalypse trip in X-Force, I"m afraid it"ll be over after 4 pages or something. Would rather see them there for an arc rather than an issue.

I like his dialog with the hood in the preview. Preview: Avengers #12 - Comic Book Resources Spoiler for anyone not caught up of course. Final issue of the arc, so he"ll find some stupid way to lose the gems/they go to a different safe spot or they"ll disappear only to resurface in an...

Didn"t notice how short Age of X is, and now it feels like it"s going to end as it just barely gets going. Not that it can really go anywhere, it"s not hyped to be any big or lasting thing like Fear Itself. That"s also why I"m disappointed in the surprise at the end of the last Avengers...

Yup! Enjoying Age of X until the WTF? at the end of the last issue also. Kinda the same at the end of the last Avengers, sucks that it won"t amount to anything since there hasn"t been a new event hyped centered around the infinity gems.

Yeah, with Comic Zeal I have to import them via iTunes... and then it converts them all to a .cbi or something format when it syncs up with the app. Once they are there though... it"s pretty awesome.

Anyone read downloaded comics on their ipad? Comic Zeal pretty much the best out there? Seems to be working pretty awesome so far but thought it was worth asking. Guessing the already lame Marvel Unlimited subscription is only for a PC? Seeing different numbers of comics available for iOS...

I know they"ve been doing it forever, but I wish they"d get away from showing things on the cover that don"t happen in the book. What is it now, 2 or 3 covers showing The Hood wielding the Infinity Gauntlet and he"s only got 2 gems?

You guys reading Age of X? Bought my first physical comics for the first time in ~15 years this weekend... jumped cold into Age of X alpha, 1, 2, the latest Avengers because I love Infinity Gauntlet stuff and grabbed the last 2 issues of FF even though I"d already downloaded them. Think I"m...

I think this is it -Amazon.com: Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne (9781401229689): Grant Morrison: Books I haven"t read much of it, downloaded an issue or two and then resumed my general ignorance/dislike of most of the DC universe.

That"s actually when I started reading/collecting comics
