You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's Wolverine art appreciation month at Marvel. Some of those are brilliant.

Now tagless for your comfort.
So besides the awesome Faith and Giles action in this issue of Buffy, we get the fun of reading the feedback in the letters regarding Buffy's romp with Satsu.
I'm loving Umbrella Academy's messy plotline. Makes my head hurt but it's still awesome.
Anyone reading Angel: Blood and Trenches?

I didn't pick up my pulls, today. Sniff. And I could have gotten a comic personally autographed by Allan Moore. I'm a bad comic fan.

Anyone reading Angel: Blood and Trenches?
I've picked up the first tow issues, but I'm...leery. How is it so far?
I also noticed that the last few issues, Joss' name hasn't been on the main Angel title. I'm still enjoying it, but I seem to remember folks saying back in the day that both the Buffy and Angel titles were pretty dire (that funny Jane E. issue of Buffy aside).

I just peeked at 2--I had to back order issue 1 so I'm saving it in my pull file until 1 comes in. The all-pencil art looks intriguing to me.
I've been enjoying Buffy. I thought this last issue was great.

I like the artwork, but I'm not nuts about the story. I know Angel tends to be a more serious storyline, but even the show had some funny in it. This was just a little too unrelentingly grim.

Byrne really doesn't do funny unless it involves Ben Grimm and Johnny Storm.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Torque, did you see it in Imax? My comic book guy was driving down to Madison to see it in Imax.
Oddly enough, I saw "Watchmen" in Madison.
And more recent: I have just picked up my comic book box after more than a month spent either on the road, buried in work or paying for new brakes.
Wish me luck ...

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Thanks to P-C, Scola, and lisah, I've read the first 3 volumes of Scott Pilgrim and am awaiting the library to get me 4 and 5.
I love saying the band's name out loud ("SEX BOB-OMB! SEX BOB-OMB!!!")
