Can't wait for some new Astro City. Been reading the trades at the local library for years, and finished the Dark Ages some months ago, so I've been itching for some more. I don't remember too much...

Haven't read DC since Flashpoint, so I'm a little confused by some of the preview pages. In the new 52, do the GL lantern batteries hold a finite charge like the rings?
My previous understanding...
I know I'm just being picky, but I don't really like how Star-Lord is a blonde now. I preferred it when he had brown hair.
Also, and this has always confused me, but does Peter have any innate...
Haha no worries. If it did say "Dallas" I was about to do a massive face palm. I only brought up this topic b/c I used to live near the Dallas campus so I'd see that particular building often and...
Wait, really? Where? I only see the "University of Texas" at top left of the page.
Haha, I was just curious to see where he's based out of. I know Google can be a great resource for artists, but the Austin and Dallas campuses are so different in general architecture it would be...
Ditto. Loved his Ultimate Spidey, but his style doesn't necessarily translate to other characters. It certainly kept my away from the Avengers for a good while.
Where does Stuart Immonen live? Because funny you should mention Dallas because that campus shot is an exact reproduction of one of the buildings at UT-Dallas. Compare:
106402

I don't mind Spidey learning martial arts, I just don't see how it'll really be displayed now that he's got his Spider Sense back. It's a nice element, but it'll be more or less forgotten until maybe...
Definitely not feeling Dr Nemesis's new costume. Even if he's physically fit, I can't see him wearing something like that. At the very least, his hair being so untamed just looks wrong. I can't see...
In no particular order:
-Captain America
-Archangel
-[B]Iron Fist
-Wolverine [he was probably my favorite as a kid, thanks to the 90s cartoon, but I've definitely cooled on him since then,...
Growing up, it was mainly floppies with trades here and there. After I started taking more and more hiatuses from comics, I transitioned into trades almost exclusively. And now, after having bought...
I'm in my mid-20s and I've been reading comics on and off since I was about 7. Personally, I don't think you should ever feel compelled to "grow out of" comics, but I also don't think it should ever...
Love it. However, I'm not really feeling the honeycomb patterning on Cap's armor now. I know it's probably supposed to reference back to the chain mail, but now it just looks a little too much. It...
For me, the conflict is because she's being so open and "front stage" on such a high profile setting as the Avengers that it seems to run counter to the whole secretive spy thing she's usually known...
It's obviously very tight and stretchy. That's why it's always riding up her bum.
That's great news. I hope you feel better soon, Mr. Busiek! I'll definitely have to keep my eye out for "Shining Stars" next time I go to the bookstore. I'll probably also ask my local library to see...
Hmmm interesting. I hope he is feeling better. I love his work and I hope he does indeed have plans for more Astro City.
I wonder if they've collected that Silver Agent mini in TPB, because that's...
Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, but I figured this was the closest thing to a Wildstorm section. Anyway, I just finished reading the final part of the Dark Age storyline at my local library (I...
I forgot about the Hulk. It's weird, but I just can't get into him as a solo character, yet I love him on a team.
The Fantastic Four was like that for me until Hickman's run. Sadly, I don't think my interest will last very long once he leaves the books though.
I think all of us have certain characters/books that, no matter how critically acclaimed or popular they are, we just don't "get it." It's not like you hate the character (or maybe you do), but you...
I will try to, though I'm sorta on another comic book hiatus, so no promises. And just to reiterate, I totally support the creators with this story, but well, we'll just have to see.
I don't have high hopes for Alpha. That's not an indictment on the creators so much as the concept and the publicity. I just don't think this'll have legs and Alpha will be largely anonymous (outside...
That aspect of the Avatar State has always confused me a bit. Like when they're a fulled realized Avatar (and can enter/exit the state at will), and they go into the state briefly to gain the...
