[Mr. Negative]

yeah, I've read it. The mystery/new take was handled well enough. What's your take on it?

Soooooooooooo......

who do you think Earth 2 Batman is?

That little blurb about Earth 2 Annual #2 had me scrambling to see if I had the issue. lol

I don't want to say it's Thomas Wayne, cause that would be too..... predictable, even though he has the outfit, the build and has no problem busting his guns.

I wanna say it's Jason Todd on Venom.

the reply I was about to type made me realize just how close Bane's Venom is to Rex Tyler/Hourman's Miraclo formula.

I was incredibly close.

I'm just mad that I was wrong about them using Thomas Wayne. lol

first instincts, man.,,first instincts lol

 

[iLLusoYuN_Da_Adidas_King]

Yeah I was hoping for a better reveal to be honest. It was a disappointment. (Earth 2.)

 

[TheGodling]

I'd hoped they'd go a different way with Bats as well, but alas. I'd rather see something really out there like a reformed Joe Chill or some shyt.

 

[Bigbigguy]

Nick Bradshaw on the art of Inhumanity #2 was a bait and switch

Like Coipel on that female X-Men book

 

[Grifter]

I liked that they worked in Miralco if their not goin to use Hourman.

 

[Bigbigguy]

Thunderbolts was awesome

 

[Jello Biafra]

I liked that they used Thomas Wayne and made him into a bit of a dikk too so it basically was his fault that Martha Wayne got killed. And having Bruce Wayne find out his dad wasn't worth shyt was a nice touch too.

 

[Dusty Bake Activate]

nah, that was my reaction to Thor having had enough of The Apocalypse Twins' bullshyt. lol

Thor put the hands of God on that boy.

 

[MenacingMonk]

Marvel gonna re-release the DNA GOTG trades.

Book 1 containing issues 1-12 drops in August.

 

[duncanthetall]

Goddamn. I feel like a lame asking this, but as the dude is the one who really brought me back into comics, I have to ask....


Is Richard Rider still dead? He's gone for good, isn't he?

I mean, how the fukk did Star-Lord get back and he dont even got any powers? Thanos back too? This shyt aint right, man...

He is, blame that fukk boi Jeph Loeb

Damn. So its really been confirmed? fukk. I'm actually somewhat legitimately upset. Nova vol 3 is probably my favorite comic book ever. Put me on to the Guardians and my nikka Gladiator and all that dope galactic shyt. That's messed up. I read 3 issues of that new Nova and it was aite, but Rider was my dude. Same with the new GOTG and blonde Starlord. Like...shyt wasn't that good. I dunno. Maybe I'm just being nostalgic, waxing poetic about old shyt. But Richard Rider was seriously that fukking dude as Nova and he went through some shyt.

I swear if somehow I had a billion dollars, I would be like YO MARVEL. I WILL FUND THIS shyt COMPLETELY IF YOU LET ME PICK THE CAST, WRITER, AND DIRECTOR.

 

[WhenWeWereKings]

The GotG relaunch with Bendis has bored me to tears. It just seems so pointless......nothings happening... After the trial of Jean Grey I'm dropping that shyt. Nova hasn't been bad but it hasn't been great either. I wouldn't care if it got canned. Did they really cancel the DnA books for this horseshyt?!?!?

 

[TheGodling]

The worst is that GotG is almost doing double sale numbers because of Bendis. DnA's run was consistently struggling to hit 30,000 whereas this run is hitting close to 50-60,000.

But what's even worse is that I just found out that Origin II was actually the bestseller of December. Who the fukk bought that crap?
