The "Web Warriors" episodes are why I'm checking the show out again too, starting with the Agent Venom episode. They've been entertaining. I'm looking forward to the 2099 episode the most, it seems like it's going to be mostly computer generated.
Exactly. She has looked like a young Pfeifer Catwoman ever since the first image of her was released, right down to the hairstyle. It had to be an intentional decision. I'm curious if she can act, though, 'cause she didn't say a single word in the pilot.
Ah, I didn't particularly notice the slang, that's a nice touch though. Didn't see the milk error either. I'm usually great at spotting stuff like that. Haha maybe she got thirsty from all of the parkour and drank some on the way back to the alley.
I feel you. Thanks to Steam, I've been getting alot of great 75% off deals, but I still find my self spending too much. If you're after the newest releases then that's even worse on your wallet. If you feel like to go ahead and list genres you think you'd be most interested in and I'll try to give some specific titles. I'm sure other's here will do the same and most likely have much more knowledge of comic books in general.
Maybe they edited out the part where she cleared most of a half gallon like that? Chug Chug Chug!
It really is weird to say that. I sometimes have to explain myself for watching the CW....it's only 3 shows damn it! Only the good ones!
Thanks! I never would have known about that. A few of those issues were from series I had considered reading for a while, so now I'll get to check them out without putting any money into them.
Ah, that's a shame. Thanks for the update. Might be a good thing in my case, though, 'cause September has been a pretty expensive month for me when it comes to comics. I don't need to be buying anything extra in October.
I already narrowed the rest of the years releases to 4-5 books and that's pushing it.
I got the second highest tier. I was most interested in Quantum and Woody, but all the other stuff seems cool.
I just got the second tier as well. Vaguely remembered getting a free issue of both Quantum & Woody and Shadowman on comixology, so I re-downloaded them and actually read them this time, ended up loving them. Already had Rai #1 in print and liked it, but couldn't justify another monthly book on my sub. Can't wait to dig in and start reading, I've been wanting to branch out and read something outside of Marvel and DC, and Valiant seems like a great option.
You're welcome. If you find the Valiant Universe interesting this thread might be useful to you. There's some discussion in there about reading order and how the crossover's work along with general feedback on each title.
ed me over hard with their prior weekly comic, Countdown.
I think he's been involved with WB/CW tv for a while. I seem to recall his name popping up in the credits of Supernatural when the show first started, up until season 6 when I stopped watching. Don't know if it's the same Ben Edlund or not.
ing give up.
Isn't that kind of the point? In all seriousness though, I am being very forgiving about some of the goofier aspects. If they're going to have so much foreshadowing in every episode, it needs to be more subtle. Selina already insisting that everyone calls her "Cat" is an eye roller, much like her mannerisms in the pilot as well as when she was swatting at the hanging necklace in this one.Yup, giving up on Gotham tried episode two and it feels too cliched and dated like an 80's or 90's cop drama, but with small dashes of Batman in it. Also Jada Pinkett Smith, just
So...Kite Man I guess was too ridiculous, but this somehow made it through? Yup, I'm ready for The Flash and Arrow to forget all about this show.
Ever read Cable & Deadpool? I'd recommend it. It existed in its own corner of the Marvel universe for most of its run. Other than that, I got nothin'. I'll soon be reading Quantum and Woody and Archer and Armstrong myself, thanks to that recent humble bundle.
Oh yeah, I own the complete run in TPB. Let's not forget its introduction of the hero of our time... Bob
It's not a buddy book but Nextwave is a very funny comic. Superior Foes of Spider-Man has also been very funny. (Still not canceled!)
Hah! I forgot all about the Penetraitor storyline. Man, Bob and Weasel are both criminally neglected these days. I miss the Agency X crew too. Fabian Nicieza is writing some sort of Deadpool mini-series soon, so I'm hoping one or two of those characters make a grand comeback.
Seconded with the Nextwave recommendation. That comic made me a fan of Machine Man. Haven't read Foes yet but I keep hear great things from it. I have to pick it up sometime.
Foes is incredible. I will have to see if I can find Nextwave
What did you think of tonight's episode?In before the gotham hate.
It's Barbara's place, isn't it? There was a quick line that she had in the pilot while speaking to him, something along the lines of "I want you to live here permanently." I'm curious what kind of place he'd really be living in.
And the ex GF had a key...
That's a shame. The show has gone through such an evolution. I had the biggest smile on my face tonight watching Green Arrow and Arsenal, in full costume, both running around and saving the city. They still have the relationship drama to hold tightly to that CW demographic, but the comic book superheroics and theatricality has certainly been ramped up to exciting levels. Peter Stormare as Count Vertigo looks promising too.
