Weekly Sketch Up – 09.30.2011
September 30, 2011 10:14 am Thank you for putting Phil Noto last...
As I scrolled down, I was like: "nice... nice... oh, cool... Wow! That Planet Hulk image is awesome!..."
Then "BOOM"
It's Sue's little smile that completely sells me on this. I'd love a wall poster...

September 28, 2011 – The Flash #1
September 30, 2011 7:49 am I only get to visit my LCS once a month... Your logic implies that I should be begging them to wait a month to tell me their persoanl POTW...
This isn't "the most popular choice of the entire community", it's just someone's personal pick. It doesn't particularly matter what Ron, Josh, or Conor pick for their POTW, but it may influence me to try something I WASN'T reading...
Like this for instance... Being a long-term Flash fan, I actually wasn't that interested in this, as I actually fell off the pre-Flashpoint run really early on... (although I kept getting the issues in my standing order, I hadn't actually read past issue 3!)...
This review made my launch the Comixology App on my iPhone, and buy the issue.
And yes. I'm back on board. I really like the new costume mechanism too! It really makes much more sense than him trying to jump into a bodysuit while running.
Mr Manupal, keep it up!

FIRST LOOK: ‘The Avengers’ Cast in Entertainment Weekly
September 30, 2011 6:22 am Also... I can't help but look at that Black Widow pic and think "Ahhh... that feels better... that was one hell of a curry last night..."

FIRST LOOK: ‘The Avengers’ Cast in Entertainment Weekly
September 30, 2011 6:20 am I presume you meant "high-waisted" Steve Rogers, and weren't implying that he had been trying to catch up with the decades of recreational drugs that he missed out on?

Strong Women of the New DC Universe
September 28, 2011 5:00 am But that's the JLA cover... NOT Wonder Woman...
Besides, if you ignore all the male characters, just for a second, and focus on Diana's pose: That is actually a pretty natural effect of stretching your body out and sticking your arms over your head... Sorry, but it's true... If she were standing with her arms by her side, she wouldn't appear to be "falling out of her low-cut top"...

Strong Women of the New DC Universe
September 27, 2011 11:29 am Okay... I'm confused by the Wonder Woman "Pants" controversy...
Sure, those aren't full-length trousers, but they aren't "Bikini-briefs" either...
They are shorts.
I mean, we're not in Bomb Queen territory here...
And who knows, maybe she feels more comfortable on Paradise Island in shorts, but wears long trousers when she's off the island?

Light Week? Try Dorothy and the Wizard In Oz #1, Rachel Rising #2, and American Vampire #19
September 27, 2011 11:12 am Just one comment:
"LIGHT WEEK"?!?!?!?!
Has there been a "light week" this month?!?!
In all seriousness, though, thank you for reminding me to go and order the trades for Ozma of Oz, Echo and American Vampire...

New Comics for 09.28.2011 went for a ‘Drive’
September 27, 2011 11:07 am So... After a month of reading other people's opinions of the New 52, i get to go and pick my books up on Saturday...
HALLELUJIAH!
I know I'm adding Animal Man and Swamp Thing to my Standing Order (having read them digitally)... And I'll be hunting copies of Resurrection Man as well...
BQ: Took the kids to see "Day of the Diesels" two weeks ago... But more importantly, THOR arrived on Blu-Ray! Hope to watch that this week...
