Comic Book Thread: Combined for greatness

Light week, but good week. Velvet, Inhumanity, Earth 2 were all cool so far. Didnt get to read a few other books I picked up yet.

Also, new Earth-2 Bats does not fuck around.

Superior Spiderman in back to back weeks and full on Venawesome.

Young Avengers was great, the art style in paneling in this issue is just amazing.

Amazing X-Men has me hoping that

Young Avengers was definitely some good fun. The whole art style they've done over the course of the series with them interacting with the panels has been entertaining.

Inhumanity just reaffirms Fraction sucks butt.

**Krandor** · 2013-12-05 07:40

Inhumanity was interesting enough to make me want to see where they go with it. I'm assuming this will be main thread point they carry across the Marvel U until New Avengers ends up coming to a head.

I enjoyed it, but I dont know if I can follow it. Too many tie-ins.

**Krandor** · 2013-12-05 20:50

Yeah nice how Infinity was mostly really contained along just the 3 comics (along with the mountain of useless tie ins), and now Inhumanity is covering 50 million different comics.

**KoalaTrap** · 2013-12-05 23:49

Isn't Inhumanity an ongoing though? It was OK. Fraction is better playing to his hipster strengths.

Random comic vent:
My comic book store sucks.. always short or late on shit, and they take the Image books (that they're always short on) for themselves before their customers. Thank god for the interwebs. Thinking of putting a stop to the floppies and just using the money for trades.

Yeah they seemed to be hinting towards him and Sandman both being lockboxes soon. Producer Woods also seemed to confirm it on twitter with his post about Impending surprises coming soon. So it's likely him and Spec Ops 15 launching with Nico for the reward tomorrow or Monday.

There are also a bunch of mail order options you can do, or comixology.

Picked up the first TP of East of West. Remember seeing someone post it was a great read back when it first launched, so hoping it won't disappoint.

It's a great story, you'll love it.

**Krandor** · 2013-12-06 18:10

Hawkguy went on a delay after the annual but I think issue 14 was last week.

**Vagrant** · 2013-12-06 22:30

yeah the last issue of Hawkguy came out a week or two ago and continued Kate's story off in LA after a brief stop with Clint the previous couple of issues.

Update on this the lockboxes are up on the daily roulette now. They can't be bought in the store at all. Can't be opened until Christmas Day but there are new daily tasks starting tomorrow that will have them as the rewards. So do the tasks every day and you should get enough lockboxes to get Doom.

Have you read Sex Criminals? I dunno how anyone could not enjoy a trip to Cumworld. Plus it has the best letter column in comics.
