BRUH!

I was in my local bookstore thumbing thru da trade. It was on clearance for $5.97. I’m def going back. Back when it first came out I was thinking “This is good stuff....but this comic not gonna last long cuz of offended cacs.” Ironically it was THIS very thread that put me on yo it.


Me too bruh If it wasn't for this thread I would of have missed out on this ,and countless other good reads.

Fire Power is some good shyt :ehh:

GotG was an EXCELLENT character study of an issue. I.... actually needed it read something like that right now. It didn't take, though. That ending had me scrambling to read Empyre....

where nothing significant hapened :francis:

I'ma need you nikkas to stop sleeping on Tynion.

The Alfred scenes in Batman #98 (and throughout his run) were a better 'character study' than anything in Tom King's run, and he didn't have to sacrifice telling a fun, action-packed Batman story. Tynion channels Tom Taylor more than Tom King in that he knows how to hit all the right emotional beats: intense action, heartwarming character moments, and funny bits all at once without any of it feeling out of place. And Jorge Jimenez is a one of my top artists right now (alongside Dan Mora), so him doing the whole arc without any fill-in artists makes it so much better.

I'm actually shocked at how much I've been enjoying Joker War because I had no interest in it all going into it. I like it much more right now than Death Metal, which I had more anticipation for.

Yeah it's crazy how much better this event is than City of Bane and Death Metal. Joker War has a strong emotional core that's persistent throughout every issue.
