by **Rhodes** » Wed May 02, 2012 7:07 am

I doubt mine's gonna have it, either.

idk, maybe they'll surprise me.

Prob. not.

*FART*

Why don't you just mail me $12 instead of flushing it down the toilet on mediocre comics today

by **Rhodes** » Wed May 02, 2012 8:11 am

Earth 2 is a $4 book.

So no.

by **Rhodes** » Wed May 02, 2012 8:15 am

Imagine if manvstrees read all the new comics before we did.

Wouldn't that be somethin'?

by **Architecture** » Wed May 02, 2012 8:19 am

To be fair, I've only flipped through the four titles but

-GI Combat might as well be Men of War #9
-DIal H has some pretty mediocre writing and the art didn't hook me
-Worlds' Finest should have Marcus To on-board instead of George Perez
-Earth 2 has decent art and probably the best writer of the four, so maybe it won't totally suck

by **Rhodes** » Wed May 02, 2012 8:25 am

I mean I'm not expecting Robinson to not blow it at some point, so there's that, too.

what

by **Rhodes** » Wed May 02, 2012 8:31 am

Seriously, Pérez and Maguire on board is like the only reason anyone should care about that book.

Levitz can't plot shit for shit.

What's epic kill

by **jerbear** » Wed May 02, 2012 8:34 am

Do you think daredevil is going to get laid this week guys

by **Rhodes** » Wed May 02, 2012 8:35 am

DD gonna get his D wet.

by **Rhodes** » Wed May 02, 2012 8:37 am

idk if I'll check out Epic Kill, but the bit with the shark was cool.

I want more of that.

by **jerbear** » Wed May 02, 2012 8:39 am

Wait, I thought pigs was a 6 issue miniseries?

by **jerbear** » Wed May 02, 2012 8:39 am

Jesus Christ this week is going to be expensive

by **Drinky** » Wed May 02, 2012 8:52 am

Is Cullen Bunn co-writing Venom now or something?

I skipped the last issue. Was it any good? I kind of lost interest in that book, but they can keep a decent artist on board (at least as good as Lan Medina) I might stick with it.

edit: Oh wait I see, it's a 5-issue arc they're doing together. Hm.

by **Mandingo** » Wed May 02, 2012 9:17 am

yeah I think he is taking the book over after that

really liked the last two issues for what it's worth

so, think you'll still have everything if i roll in at 6 PM or something?

yr place was nuts last year, pretty sure ran out of certain books early on. i got there at least 30 mins before opening, and the line was around the corner.

that dude Bryson from My Life As Liz was working there stocking the shelves.

having not felt avx, this issue is a good start in turning me around
