Anyone in this joint reading Saga?

 

[Anubis]

I am.

It's awesome.

 

[chamber-music]

Saga is great

 

[Charlie Boy]

I just finished the first volume last night and I'm really digging it. This is the first thing I've ever read by Ben is but I always heard he was amazing... Is he more known for his dialogue, story telling, or original ideas?

 

[Anubis]

You mean Brian K Vaughn?

The guys the full package.

You should also try Y the Last Man.

 

[Charlie Boy]

I did mean Brian K. Vaughn, I'm not sure why I typed Bendix. I've been meaning to read Y but I don't think any of my friends have it and I'm not savvy enough to download it.

 

[RoughNTumble]

sometimes you have a cat

sometimes you have a hat

 

[lixdexia]

sometimes you feel like a nut...

because you refuse to make sense and speak with plural pronouns.

Y: The Last Man
Ex Machina.

Do it now.

 

[CConn]

Runaways is even better, IMHO.

 

[Anubis]

Better than Ex Machina? Yeah.

Better than Y the Last Man? I disagree.

 

[Charlie Boy]

Y: The Last Man
Ex Machina.

Do it now.

But but but I'm on a budget! How about I wait til Friday? My tax return should be in by then.

 

[lixdexia]

But but but I'm on a budget! How about I wait til Friday? My tax return should be in by then.

if only there were someway to read these without paying for them...like at a store or something. maybe like a store, but instead of selling things they give them to you for free, but for a set period of time.

no no, maybe if they put the books in a digital format that could be easily pirated and read on a computer...

but yeah, there are ways to read these ****s for free. hell, the only reason i buy books at all right now is to flirt with the cute girl who works at the bookstore.

 

[Anubis]

Yeah, try the local Library.

 

[Charlie Boy]

Yeah I know, but I can't really do that on my computer and since I don't have an unlimited data plan on my phone anymore I don't dare doing it on here. So I may as well just buy the damn books.

 

[sandwraith]

So I didn't know the Pontiff title was one you could resign from. Learn something new everyday. Welcome to the Year of the Snake people.

 

[Anubis]

You can resign from anything.

 

[lixdexia]

nubs, i finally got time to read that book. it was pretty good, a bit pandering to popular opinion at times, but what isn't. it's part rock and roll forrest gump and part the odyssey in space. check it out if you get a chance.

 

[Anubis]

Yeah, I was planning on it. You're the second person that liked it.

 

[Charlie Boy]

What book is this?

 

[lixdexia]

red rocket 7 by mike allred.

i got a copy for $5 at BAM, so hopefully it's not too hard to find.

 

[Hush]

Aquaman *****es!

[Charlie Boy]

Why is Flash wearing that crappy looking armor? Aquaman's a king, he's got every reason in the world to rock armor... But Barry looks stupid.

 

[CConn]

Better than Ex Machina? Yeah.

Better than Y the Last Man? I disagree.

I wasn't too impressed with once it finally ended. His character-work was awesome, but the overall plot for the series was pretty thin.

 

[nite-owl]

I only found out that there was a Aquaman game for the Xbox.
