[Comic Talk] General Comic Discussion - Books, Web Comics etc.

71585 Views 761 Posts MMGN.com
From DC to Marvel and Web Comics to The funnies you find in the morning paper, comics can be found in lots of places. I read comics everyday, and have been for many years. This thread is for anyone and everyone who wants to talk about comics. 

You read a lot of VG Cats and you want to talk about it? Do so here. You like to buy printed comic Books? Discuss what you're reading! There re so many different comics out there, surely there's much to discuss. 

Please note:
This thread is meant for proper discussions. Saying things like "DC suck, Marvel is better!" will absolutely not be tolerated. If you can't be civil and respect what other people are saying, then don't post here. Let's all play nice.
Get to read Locke and Key 5 this weekend XD

Just read Spider-Men 3. That last panel. Oh god :'(

I'll read Spider-Men 3 on the way home on the train.

Walking Dead 100 - OMFG NO! **** YOU KIRKMAN
Batman 11 - Yep, Court of the Owls is probably my fave bat-arc, can't wait to buy an absolute edition 10 years from now. It's seriously so damn good. And they have a Joker arc coming up next! XD


Yay! Some DC talk. I'm enjoying 'Batman' too. I haven't read chapter 11 yet. I'll try and get it soon.
Holy wow. Venom #20 was great. Spider-Men #3 was just as good.

Must...not...give...spoilers...

I was also unhappy with the situation.

Also, I'm going to kill Negan myself.

I read it yesterday and seriously wanted to both rage and cry myself to sleep. There's a point where Kirkman has gone from being a very realistic and great writer, to just a prick. If he saved that character, developed them all this time, made us truly like them as much as Rick and all that, just to use them to "shock us", well, it's just a waste and a really stupid decision.
I had planned to rip the issue in half and quit if My favourite character was going to die. Glad he lived.
But yeah, still very pissed :(

Also up to venom arc in Ultimate spidey omni
Its so good and I'm just powering through! :(
Giving myself a weekend break from Locke & Key, reading it too fast.

Anybody been reading Before Watchmen and Hit-Girl?

Picked up Hit-Girl but haven't read it yet. Was going to get Before Watchmen, but I don't want to pay $7 for it... I don't want to encourage them to do this sort of thing more often. So I'll wait.

My comic shop have dozens of copies of the Before Watchmen comics, they told me they were expecting to sell heaps but they just aren't moving.... *applauds Perf*
I think DC assumed they'd sell craploads of BW because of how popular the film was. I thought about getting Hit-Girl, but u rather buy the hardcover so it fits in with te Kick-Ass hardcovers.
Hit-Girl I really don't care about. Millars ego has ****ing skyrocketed through the roof after the Kick-Ass movie. Seeing every back page with his smug face saying I'M AWESOME (Etc. etc.) pissed me off so much. It didn't help that Kick-Ass 2 was absolute tripe...

I've been reading Before Watchmen. Do they sell for 7 bucks? I get all mine for 4, and my store sells em for 5. Most of it's pretty good I think. What happened was a because it's such a touchy property, only the best of the best were brave enough to take it on, so there's a lot of good quality BW coming out.

Totally devoured my Spidey omni last night (Was already half way through) I love this series, SO MUCH. :P
Reading onwards via other means atm. I'll definitely buy all the Omnis as they come out!

It's odd though, they have death slated for this year. So... Does that fit in with this line of omnibus's...? Or will they reprint death in the line in a few years when they get up to it...

Ahhh who knows??

And has anyone read Rust?

I was really pleased with all of this weeks comics. All of them, I think, we're very good. Spider-Men was excellent.

In other news, Hulk is being renamed to "Red She Hulk" and RSH will be the new main focus. I am pissed off. I've just spent a good amount of time and money into catching up to the current Hulk issues. I've grown to really enjoy Red Hulks character, as well as the main story lines,and I'm dissapointed that this change is happening.
You weren't pleased, yet they were very good?

Batman and Robin 11 was awesome as well. Damiens such an asshole.
My neighbour suggested i read an old french comic book series. Its called 'Rahan'. Anybody heard of this series?
I was seriously waiting for a thread like this
I picked up Volume 3 of DMZ by Brian Wood (most notably known for Channel Zero) and its damn amazing.

Typo. I was pleased.
Marvel Phase 2!

So I've caught up with Fantastic Four and FF. I've enjoyed it, but no where near as much as most of the other stuff that I've read recently. I'm not glad that both titles are ending in October, but I'm not annoyed by it either.
It's read volume one of buggy season 9 and vol 1 of faith and angel and they were great. Also other world volume of uncanny xforce was awsome..... I'm in paris

check that out.

Yeah, I read the first few chapters of FF. At first, I was drawn by the comic but then I slowly didn't care much about it. I liked the premise of the story at first but it didn't really do much for me afterwards. I feel like spiderman was the only reason why I picked up the comic. Fantastic Four in general, I don't like them in particular.
I use to read Ctrl+Alt+Del all the time. I was pretty hooked for a while. www.cad-comic.com/...

CAD used to be great. When I was younger and obsessed with Web Comics, CAD, VG Cats and Sam and Fuzzy were my favorites. CAD got bad when Lilah had a miscarriage.

I agree with that. I'm making it my goal to catch up with everything Spider-Man from The Civil War to current atorylines. I knew that "Fatastic Spider-Man" was a thing, so I started Fantastic Four. I personally don't think there was much of Spidey in FF anyway. I do/did enjoy FF, but not that much.
I'm really getting into Romantically Apocalyptic at the moment. I know it's a web comic, but the art is really, really awesome.

Been reading that for a while. It's so well drawn and legit hilarious.
Quick, unofficial question here.

Would members like a comics forum on the MMGN network? Are there many major Australian forums that you visit instead because we don't have a comics discussion panel?

Also would having local comic stores involved entice you to choose us over someone else?

I may or may not have spoken to a few already.....
