I look more rad than Lutheranism

The original Golden Age Blue Beetle lasted 59 issues (not helping).

Huh. I got my (mis)information from the DC Comics' board. I don't know whether to take the time to register just so I can tell them they were wrong, or let them enjoy their delusion.

"But...somebody on the internet is wrong!"

"After Buffy#19 hits stores on November 26..." - Scott Allie, 11/07/2008, >[link]

OMG! See, this is why people who aren't regular comics readers are giving up on the series. This is some disorganized bullshit.

Did you read Fray? This is nothing compared to that.

When I picked up my last box of pulls, which was half a year's worth at least (I have officially moved to trades), we made many jokes at the expense of certain Bendis titles that appeared to have gone back to an erratic release cycle. Though still not as bad as Planetary was.

This is some disorganized bullshit.

You're talking about an industry that thinks it's sane to organize titles by publisher. Be grateful they don't use an Aztec calendar for release dates.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Be grateful they don't use an Aztec calendar for release dates.

Actually, it would explain a lot.

I think I started reading it issue by issue but gave up and just read it when it was finally collected.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You're talking about an industry that thinks it's sane to organize titles by publisher.

I don't know, I think it works in a publisher-oriented industry. There are DC comics and Marvel comics and Image comics and so on.

Though still not as bad as Planetary was.

Was? I thought the last issue was still pending, or did it finally come out?
