TPBs Bought/Thought Thread

[Sparta*]

I have Avengers Forever and it looks awesome. I will get around to reading it soon. Right now though, i'm reading JLA Secret Origins.

 

[Anubis]

AF is sexy.

I got the Doctor 13: Architecture and Morality TPB this past Wednesday, even though I read most of it already in the Tales of the Unexpected backups. I read it all again at this lame-ass staff retreat my job forced me to go to. It was even better this time around. To anyone who enjoys wit, metafiction, and/or dry humor, you need this trade. Azzarello is hilarious.

Yeah, loved they way they made fun of both Marvel and DC. Great read.

Picked up the first volume of 100 Bullets while I was at the shop, this week.

Addicted.

 

[Anubis]

I don't know, I could never really get into the series.

JLA Secret Origins was an alright read...nothing spectacular.

I just finished Hulk: Tempest Fugit as well, but I enjoyed that a lot more...great story and artwork and clever twists I recommend it

I loved what I read of it, but I kind of stalled around vol. 4 of the trades because I didn't have enough money at the time to buy them all. I figure I'll probably just wait until the series finishes, reread the first few trades, and then start buying the rest of them. That way I won't risk catching up to the issues the way I have with a bunch of other series.

I'm currently reading Batman: Gotham County Line and am really enjoying it so far You can't go wrong with Batman + Zombies

 

[Sparta*]

Just finished Batman: Gotham County Line, and what a trip that book was lol definatley a good trip though Recommended to anyone who doesn't mind a disturbing and gross comic.

 

[Sandman138]

Nah, they deserved ever cut from that axe

They were saints compared to Goldie; commie pinko *****.

I :heart: Rose Red.

 

[Anubis]

Big Thor fix lately.Loving the new series so I decided to pick up...

Thor Blood Oath by Oeming
Thor Disassembled by Oeming

 

[CaptainCanada]

I loved Avengers Disassembled: Thor (actual title: "Ragnarok"), especially the ending pages, so perfectly mirrored in the relaunch.

I'm picking those because the guy at my store owned a complete run of Thor,300+ issues,and said that those 2 trades were the places to go to read a solid and definitive Thor story without shelling out too much bucks on the Visionarie TPBs.I appreciate what all those books did in the 80s did,but to actually read comics from the 80s is a chore for me.

 

[GNR]

Corp,what episode is that in your avvy?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The Simonson issues still read pretty well to me, and I've been known to have some trouble reading older stuff. I could never make it very far into Journey Into Mystery, for example.

My avatar comes from the Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker episode. The uncut version, since I think the Joker just slips and gets electrocuted off-screen in the censored version. In the uncut one, Robin shoots him in the chest.

 

[Sparta*]

just finished Wolverine: Weapon X, and Green Lantern: Emerald Dawn

Emerald Dawn was pretty awesome but I didn't really enjoy Weapon X too much

 

[Anubis]

Got ahold of Warren Ellis' Fell. It truly was "fan-****ing-nomenal-tast-errific". Great, moody artwork from Templesmith, and an awesome narrative from Ellis. Love this book. And I really can't get enough of the Nixon Nun. Is there another volume of this coming out? Or do I gotta wait another two or three years for Ellis to get around to it?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

It's one of those series Ellis is taking his sweet time on. The last issue that's come out so far is the last issue collected in the trade.
