Bought/Thought - January Today, 2013

Hmm. What issue are they up to on the main ongoing?

I'm pretty sure #17 is the most recent issue. It introduced the Neutrinos from the '80s cartoon.

I approve of that.

I got TMNT: SECRET OF THE FOOT CLAN #1 as well. I just got it late as my LCS didn't order it, so I had to go elsewhere. It's pretty good, and the IDW TMNT series has been amazing. I highly recommend it to any TMNT fan. It's worth the trade.

Eh, I forget the date and don't feel like looking it up.

Okay, that's taking lazy to a new level. You just have to look at the bottom right-hand corner of your screen, right??

Fantastic Four #3: Finally they're in space and exploring! I felt like I completely spoiled the first issues of Fan4 and FF by reading interviews. It was a good little story, though Reed's parenting seems sketchy lol. I do hope more of an arc gets going, instead of just one and done issues.

Thor: God of Thunder #4: So consistently good, and next issue is probably going to be amazing. There isn't even much to say other than great great great.

Cable and X-Force #3: Three issues in and I'm still not quite sold. I do like the Chic-Fil-A story. I love it when writers take current events and make them apply to the X-men. Though having the crux of the first arc be based in fast food is underwhelming. And there's so little Colossus. Hopefully next issue will remedy that.

Current? Didn't that whole Chic-fill-A thing happen like a year ago?

Well hey! Look that that, there it is.

Honestly, my watch is such a crutch for me that when I forget to wear it I'm lost. I never look down in that corner of the screen and forget what's down there. I'm the same with time. My wife will ask me what time it is while I'm on the computer and if I don't have my watch on I have no idea what to tell her.

I'll remember to look down next time

Oh, I forgot to tell you. I took your place in the Hype Fantasy Football League. Got 3rd place! I was quite happy. Alex won it again, though.

Awesome! I know I recommended you but I never heard if you took the slot. I enjoyed playing but just didn't have the time to commit to it. I know how much you enjoyed the season we played together and I had a feeling you'd be the type to stick around, which I know is important to TMoB.

I flunked bad at my own league this year. I ended in 6th place (out of 10). I don't think I hit projection but maybe twice all year. It was horrible. And here I'm debating on making it for money next year

It blew over a couple months ago at most. It's still relatively current.

 

[Sneakronicity]

Did anyone else check out the New Avengers: Breakout prose novel? I actually thoroughly enjoyed the book. I haven't read the comics arc that it was loosely based off of (though I watched the EMH episodes) so that could be a big help, but I thought the characterizations were distinct and well done (I particularly loved Spidey and Luke Cage) and though it felt a bit rushed and I would have liked a better resolution, I thought it was quite well written. Of course I am obviously the target audience for this kind of publication so it's no surprise I loved it. I was just wondering if anyone else gave it a shot?
