The Twelve

[TheCorpulent1]

Gee, thanks for spoiling Rising Stars for me, Dread. What if I actually wanted to read that someday? I won't, but what if?!

 

[GNR]

Read it anyways,good stuff.The 3rd act drawn by Brent Anderson has to be the best.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, someday. It's not high on my list.

 

[Darthphere]

Like bathing.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I'll have you know I almost always bathe at least once every day.

Actually, I didn't spoil a whole lot. What, is the plotline of, "a bunch of metahumans are introduced, and one of them starts killing off the others for personal gain" such an unknown and rarely imitated storyline? I deliberately didn't mention WHICH character in RS did that. Hell, HEROES basically spent their entire season doing that.

That's like saying, "just like in WALKING DEAD, where major characters die unexpectedly." Like no other comic does that.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, certainly not the way The Walking Dead does it.

 

[The Geek Vault]

So yeah I got issue one and really liked it! I gotta go find a way to get issue two now but I'm really liking this story!

 

[Dread]

Yeah, THE TWELVE is kicking butt so far. Second issues are often underordered sometimes especially considering the modest debut of THE TWELVE #1 (I don't think it sold within the Top 50). Happy hunting.

Preview for #3 and I hope that 3.99 price tag is a typo

God, I remember when books were $1.

 

[The Geek Vault]

I have my dad's old comics that were a dime! So question who is gonna pilot Electro now that his creator is dead? Also will these characters carry over into main stream? Or do you think they will all die by the end?

 

[Anubis]

I remember when books were $2.50

 

[LemonSunday]

You're a young'un.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yet he has the apathy of a much older man.

 

[RockSP]

God, I remember when books were $1.

Marvel, 60 cents. DC, 75 cents.

 

[Arkady Rossovich]

I hear this is good..i can't wait for the paperback.

Why does Phantom Reporter kill Blue Blade do you think?

 

[Darthphere]

Why does Phantom Reporter kill Blue Blade do you think?

Why are you assuming he killed him?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, he could've just been out for a walk and tripped over Blue Blade's body.

 

[LemonSunday]

I for one walk around with a smoking gun drawn at all times.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Maybe he shot at the person who did kill Blue Blade.

 

[LemonSunday]

That's actually a strong possibility.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

You guys are just natural instigators. You're all, "Oh, Blue Blade's a total dick so the Phantom Reporter must've shot him."

 

[LemonSunday]

What I think is that Chris Weston's art is amazing.
