Essential The Official Comic Book Discussion Thread [Support @Neuromancer’s book!]

Image has this week's issues for 99 cents on Comixology. Usually I stay at least one issue behind on Image books since they're half off a month later, but I got today's issues of Undiscovered Country, Bitter Root and Tartarus for 99 cents each.

No Decorum tho since that was last week.

It also came out last week but you (and others) should pick up Stealth. Story takes place in Detroit, main character is a black journalist writing a piece about the city, his father seems to deal with onsetting dementia while a local vigilante is becoming increasingly more violent. Very good first issue.

Can’t wait for the DCeased omnibus.

That’s if DCeased doesn’t actually hit reality.

 

[Primetime]

Trailblazer: Has an infinitely big backpack

Screentime: His brain is hooked to the internet, so he can google stuff instantly

Snowflake and SafeSpace: One creates ninja stars, one creates forcefields that only activate when he's protecting someone else

B-Negative: Morbius Jr, basically. Also makes a lot of 90's and 2000s references.

Now my question is.... who thought this was a good idea?

Is this a new LGBT team?

 

[Primetime]

Those are some truly shytty names.

Everything about them screams that they are what a 40 year old white guy from Williamsburg thinks is hip and happening.

And from the cover to the first issue I assumed that Snowflake & Safespace were a couple but according to the press release they are twins which makes the way they are positioned on the cover awkward. Because to me it looks like they might be fukking:

Ohhhhhh

 

[Primetime]

Yo, what was that big Al Ewing-led event that was supposed to happen?

Night Thrasher joined a squad with Blue Marvel and another guy.

Someone got murdered, or something .

Hell Night Thrasher came back from oblivion in Civil War II (or maybe Contest of Champions?) And he ain't done shyt!

 

[Primetime]

I read OUTLAWED and it's like Marvel forgot that they hit all the same beats as this story with the fallout from Stamford Incident that kicked off CIVIL WAR.

It's like the Muppet Babies. But darker

Empyre? It's supposed to start in April.

 

[MenacingMonk]

When's Death Metal starting? I scanned through the last issue of Hell Arisen, or whatever the hell it's called. at the ending.

BWL.

They’re doing another story after Unkillables is done.

I really don't know how this pitch got the greenlight.

Why not have the OG New Warriors mentoring some of the 8 million existing teen characters that are out there?
Just from the OUTLAWED one shot they could have put Power Man, Pinpoint, Ironheart and Bombshell under the New Warriors authority.

I hate that fukking Batman Who Laughs and it's not like you can avoid him since he seems to be at the center of damn near everything in the DCU.
They basically had him just bytch Lex Luthor out like Lex was a punk.

Contest of Champions.

He was also in a recent Punisher arc with him Pun, Ghost Rider, Moon Knight, and Black Widow against the Thunderbolts.

I thought Marvel was done with the tumblr shyt
