I have never read a comic book

>>149798129

>>149798119 (OP)
Sam and Max Surfin' The Highway

>>149798138
I am here to jerk off to Catwoman

>>149798162
sad. do you have a gf or wife?

>>149798119 (OP)
Yesterday I re-read Man of steel by john byrne issue one (miniseries one)

>>149798180
NTA, but I'm here to jerk off to Spider-Man.
I do read comic books but haven't read any today.

>>149798129
I have never watched a cartoon.

>>149798180
Where do you think we are?

>>149798199
gay
>>149798214
if he doesnt have one he should go get one instead of jerking off to fictional broads

>>149798119 (OP)
Was fun, not the best cross over though.

>>149798180
>do you have a gf or wife?
maybe I don't,if you play your cards right ;-)

>>149798119 (OP)
Technically, Captain America #2 and Deadpool Kills The Marvel Universe One Last Time

>>149798807
what do you mean technically

>>149798129
Good thing you said comic "book", because not reading a comic would be impossible considering how many reaction images, OPs and images in general on 4chan are comics.

>>149798119 (OP)
finished reading Blood Hunt. I’m not normally a marvel guy, but I’ve been looking for good Blade comics and this somewhat delivered what I wanted.
I’m glad they turned Varnae into an interesting villain, in the 1994 series he was nothing but a boring distraction.
has anyone read One World Under Doom? I’m also interested to learn more about Moon Knight after this arc. Does Moon Knight typically hunt vampires?

>>149798119 (OP)
None. I've been napping and watching box tutorials.

>>149798886
>box tutorials.
??

>>149798869
While it's not a good run, Blade was the best part of Aaron's Avengers, particularly the Heroes Reborn story.

>>149798912
Box drawing tutorials. I am trying to become a drawfag.

>>149798947
you need help to draw a box ? you arent gonna make it

>>149798119 (OP)
Lenore by Roman Dirge
Maybe I'll storytime the new miniseries

>>149798953
Same. But that never stopped me from throwing myself at things anyway.

>>149798817
It was around the end of 11 and the start of midnight

I re-read Batman the Cult yesterday.

It was cool, but I can see why Blackfire as an antagonist didn't take off.

>>149798119 (OP)
Mighty Thor #334. I picked it up for the cover a month or so back. Story was halfway though an arc about Donald Blake being accused of killing Jane Foster after she fused with Sif. Nothing special, but it kinda tickled my nostalgia for the Lee/Kirby era.

>>149799145
he isn’t really as powerful as other villains.
he was only able to grow his army circumstantially because Batman wasn’t paying attention soon enough.
meanwhile recurring people like Freeze, Joker, Scarecrow, Ivy all have sci-fi government-grade chemical and biological weapons up their sleeve that they can deploy against Batman at any time.

>>149798119 (OP)
> Jeff the Land Shark #1
Jeff is cute. I like Jeff.
>DCeased
Just starting it very cool but I now regret getting the compact version. oh well.

>>149798119 (OP)
Finished Usagi Yojimbo Saga Book 1. Now trying to decide whether to crack open Hawkworld or One Punch Man, though what I really want is the next Usagi book.

>>149798119 (OP)
This has been a trip, a good trip

>>149798119 (OP)
Beverly by Nick Drnaso. Every time I try and indie graphic novel i hope I like it but then I don't.

>>149799728
did you watch OPM?
the first season was fun but everything afterwards was a chore. it only works as a gimmick for a mini-series imo

>>149799748
boring and i dont know why everyone is jizzing over it

>>149798119 (OP)
That shota needs a hot middle aged girlfriend ASAP.

>>149798119 (OP)
Secret Empire #10 and Infinity Countdown #1

Read Seaguy recently. It has some good stuff in it, but it's overall pretty meh.

>>149798971
Nice.

>>149799778
I've seen one episode. It was okay. I like the premise and I'm a big fan of Murata's art style, so I thought I'd give the comic a chance. I have to say I'm really enjoying it. Some of the art is unbelieveable, and I love how Murata uses depth-of-focus effects and other cinematic gimmicks.

>>149798119 (OP)
I finished up Prophet last night. I’m going to read ASM 184 right now.

none

Read?

/co/ marvelfags, I need recommended readings that help me understand the pre-history of the Marvel universe. if you know any good, well-written arcs that are remotely about Atlanteans, Lemurians, or any other pre-historic species and races please let me know. thanks in advance

>>149798157
Such an underrated series.

Bought both copies of the DC side of the Amalgam Comics, going to read them tomorrow on th way to work

This

>>149798119 (OP)
the issue of KNIGHTFALL with firefly

Finished Gotham Central. Overall a mediocre series. No idea why I even bothered to read the whole thing lol.

>>149806686
I would suggest looking into History of the Marvel Universe, it has an appendix, where it outlines all of the obscure information the book presents, could be a good way to learn about ancient Marvel history

>>149806686
they literally have like "handbooks" that go over Marvel history

later I should be reading The Golden Age

About to start the 2015 Martian man hunter run

>>149798119 (OP)
I've been reading Captain Britain lately. Just got out of the early stuff and now I'm in the Black Knight strips

Two issues of The West Coast Avengers

Starting on the original 70s/80s Warlord series. What a fun comic.

>>149798869
>has anyone read One World Under Doom?
It's not a good event and it's still ongoing

>>149808023
The mini or the main run?

Nah, not today.

Just finished rereading All-Star Superman for the first time in about a decade.

>>149798119 (OP)
a bunch of random golden age funny animal books for ideas to steal

I read manga.
Like everybody else in the world is doing.

Superman, the Man of Steel #1
Superman #57
19&20 of the Triangle era 1991

>>149808400
no need to brag. in fact why are you even on /co/

>>149808400
Most people don’t read at all.

>>149808400
I read manga too, but there's another board for that.

I recently finished up reading the original 90s New Warriors run. Was not expecting Dire Wraiths.

>>149808400
delusional

JMS has Superman go walking across the country. It was alright. Very much one of those "I want to try and redefine Americana" type of runs but entertaining enough.

>>149798129
same

>>149806686
Don't bother.

>>149808676
One of the all time low points in the history of comics.

>>149809210
Why?

>>149809545
Because it sucks and was a horrible idea.

>>149809779
Did it affect anything in the short or long run?

I read Nancy every day

>>149809779
I wouldn't say it was one of the high points in comic history but at it's worst it was kind of inoffensively dull. There have been MUCH lower points.

>>149810129
ehh

>>149798119 (OP)
I'm working on the first Conan omnibus.

>>149799685

what do you mean the 'compact' version of DCeased?

I was reading the Synder/Capullo Bats Omnibus this afternoon. I also bought a couple more collections online today because they were over 50 percent off. Seems like I'm seeing a lot of sales like lately.

>>149810536
Savage Sword or Barbarian

>>149810554
DC has a line called compact comics. Basically they're really small and on low quality paper but they're alsp only $10.

>>149798119 (OP)
I've been reading Mike Carey's X-men.
It's pretty good.

Found a comic version of A Scanner Darkly in a roadside library, which I didn't know existed, so that I guess. Looks like just a bunch of screenshots from the movie.

>>149810872
kek

>>149810561
Barbarian. I'm about halfway through, Barry Windsor-Smith's art is really picking up, the Elric issues were tits.
I want to buy all of these Titan Omnis but it'll take awhile, I want to get into Savage Sword as well but they are more expensive and also there are fucking eleven of them.

James Bond: Permission to Die. The first original Bond story told in comics. Better than the recent Bond films for sure.

>>149798119 (OP)
Spider-Gwen Shadow Clones. I meant to click on Gwenverse but it sounded neat

>>149812519
what the fuck is that shit

>>149811353
Savage Sword is really good too. I've been reading Roy Thoma's Barbarian life where he talks about how they went about getting the book made in the first place. Really interesting process. Thomas actually took a pay hit so they could afford the rights to Conan (over that hack Lin Carter's Kull knock off)

>>149813360
>Lin Carter's Kull knock off

Say what?

>>149798129
This needs to be /co/‘s banner

>>149813380
Thongor of Lemuria. Back during the 60s Carter and L Sprague De Camp basically made their name by editing Robert E Howard's Conan stories. It blew. And whatever they didn't "edit" they ripped off whole sale. During the early development days of Conan the comic at marvel, Stan Lee was pushing for them to get Thongor because he liked the name and it would have been cheaper.

>>149798384
Crossovers are for fags.

>>149798119 (OP)
Nothing

>>149808321
?

>>149808400
I've got multiple manga tabs up and multiple comic tabs. Multi task nibber.

>>149798119 (OP)
One of my Usagi Yojimbo collections. Specifically the one where Gen meets his father's lord's wife. Shit's sad yo.

>>149808400
Good for you bro

>>149814322
The cross-overs are better than either real comic at times.

>>149816008
Never.

>>149799145
Honestly that's a good thing. Great villain, but only a one off like most should be

>>149816974
He's not that great.

>>149818126
>Weird origin
>Villain of a memorable story
>Breaks Bruce
>Fucked off and didn't become overused
Yeah he's kino

Best crossover, yes?

>>149818207
Belasco is such a shit character.

>>149819424
I liked a lot of that era of X-men but the demon shit was always my least favorite part

>>149819769
I have to agree with that sentiment. For some weird reason, I like Belasco, but the whole Limbo-Inferno thing could often feel like a drag.

Today I read The Dark Prince Charming. I read it years ago without much thought and it is so much better than I remembered.

If I may blogpost, other things I read recently:
>Beneath the trees, where nobody sees
>Warrior
>The Lost Sunday
>Medievil

>>149820365
I think Inferno was the first time I really disliked an X-men story

Spider-woman 5&6
Captain america v4 25
Captain america & Falcoln 2
Wolverine/Captain America

>>149798236
Fictional broads can't give you stds, demand child support or divorce-rape you.

>>149820834
Can't give you anything else either.

>>149822582
give you some peace and goddamn quiet

>>149818207
Englehart run?

>>149813412
I like this better.

>>149799145
I think Starlin's run is underrated these days.

>>149820435
I fucking loved Inferno. It's so fucking stupid in concept, but it's also plot-packed and fun.

>>149823470
It's the first event I've read that had spill over into other books. Compared to how this kind of thing is done now it almost feels adorably quaint but it was still annoying

>>149819116
Unpopular opinion: I do not enjoy the work of Walt Simonson.

Started reading Murena, first cycle up to book III.

good rec. I’m always open to historical fiction comics. Dead Romans was one I was reading when it first started, though I never read past the twist because I took a break from comics at that point. it was about Arminius’s uprising

Avengers: The Veracity Trap
Metafictional garbage. I feel cheated.

>>149823564
I think he's one of the few very good artists in comics.

>>149824948
His recent Conan one shot wasn't very good.

>>149824948
I can’t stand his art. I get why people like it, but it’s a dealbreaker for me.

>>149825480
He has the best onomatopoeia in the business

Who the fuck reads anymore?

>>149798119 (OP)
I started reading Secret Six by Nicole Maines, wanted to see Jon Kents current status quo after years of lazy faggotry. It was surprisingly decent, I thought it was going to be some awful fluff because it it has Jons pink shit in it and Maine’s self insert, but it was still a solid read. I hope pink shit stays a villain and Jon gets turned back into a kid tho.

>>149825852
>Nicole Maines
tranny. dropped.

Don’t be transphobic anon

>>149823564

Secret Origins #2, featuring both Dan and Ted Blue Beetles.

>>149804965
I wish Morrison would get part 3 out.

Resident Alien

Because it’s pointless, there’s a huge chance your life will go on without meeting a tranny.

>>149825448
He's still drawing?

>>149827824
He didn't do the art on it. Some guy named Jerry Ma did.

>>149798119 (OP)

The War of the Realms (2019 event)

a random issue of "What The...?" that i had on a large reader stack of comics next to my toilet.

>>149827850
I can’t wait until Conan is public domain.

>>149830024
public domain never does anything any good

>>149827244
It wasn't compelling enough for me to want the conclusion.

>>149830995
It did wonders for Dracula and Sherlock Holmes, Frankenstein, War of the Worlds, Camelot, Robin Hood, etc…

>>149832209
Not really.

It's just THICC FAGS. You didn't hear a peep from this book till now.

>>149836046
it only has three issues

read Dark Horse Conan. Going through all the Tower of the Elephant adaptations.

>>149833438
good stuff

>>149798119 (OP)
Mostly Conan and Hellboy. Sometimes I read lame shit for fun like chick tracks. Something like this

You ever have something new on the way that you can't wait to start but in the meantime you don't want to start anything else because of it?

>>149841347
God it's so weird to look back and realize that the Lugosi movie was made when the novel WASN'T pd. Like it was only 30 years old give or take. More time has passed between the first X-men movie and its 1st issue than Dracula and its publication.

catching up on current Aquaman. It's good.

>>149798119 (OP)
Generations Forged #1
It was a comic.

>>149798119 (OP)
Porn comics, well, depend on if the story is good

>>149828241
Nah, Vertigo turned it down along with Lesexy, citing sub 10,000 sales on Seaguy 2.

I dig it

>>149798119 (OP)
I just read manga today. I haven't been able to get into comics. I tried reading volume one of New Teen Titans, but I didn't like how they're all college age and how it kind of just glosses over a lot of the action.

>>149843029
I only started reading NTT recently with the Judas Contract but I think I'd like to read more.

>>149843029
NTT is trash.

>>149798119 (OP)
Trying out Absolute Superman today. I liked what I read of Absolute Batman recently so I figured I'd give it a go. Plan on giving the Absolute line a shot eventually.

>>149844451
It's okay.

>>149844378
bullshit

>>149837113
Excellent taste, that it my favorite of the short stories.

>>149844574
I'm really looking forward to that painted edition coming out soon.

>>149844453
That's what I'm kind of figuring out as I go through it. It's sort of doing what I liked about Absolute Batman, spinning around the usual dynamics of the characters, but it's not exactly hitting the same notes of interesting spins I think Absolute Batman was hitting. I'll probably catch up at least and then see about trying Absolute Martian Manhunter and Absolute Wonder Woman next. And if there's any other Absolute stuff going on then. As I understand eventually Batman is going to crossover into Wonder Woman's run and presumably the rest will too so may help to be caught up with the rest.

I was trying to read the 2019 Black Cat book, but I really don't find her adventures to be that thrilling.

>>149837113
If you're going to look at some of the story adaptations, check out The People of the Black Circle in Savage Sword. It kicks ass.

A bit of Wahoo Morris

Tried reading some issues of Checkmate, a late 80s DC series that spun off of Vigilante. It's not bad, but it's not that good either.

Reread 'Mazing Man. Don't think I liked it as much as I did when I first read it. Still an OK series though.

Ralph Snart Adventures

>>149798119 (OP)
Just the latest Judge Dredd in 2000AD. I kinda wish I waited for the story to finish before starting reading it, this drip feed of a story is hurting.

>>149844451
You’re in for a treat. It’s the only current Superman story that has grabbed me. I like most of the changes.

>>149798119 (OP)
I just finished The War of the Realms.
This event is easily MUCH better than Civil War II, Secret Empire, Inhumans vs. X-Men, and Infinity Wars.
The best thing is that the shitty, artificially pushed characters like Kamala and Miles are finally no longer the protagonists. For the first time since Secret Wars 2015. I can't say how good it felt not to see the nigga and the Muslim after 4 events

>>149844507
No, it's true.

>>149798119 (OP)
Nothing again

>>149798119 (OP)
I recently got the DC Finest Metamorpho book so I'm reading that for the time being.

I need to get back to comics.

Checking out Jack Staff.

read

Read that Superman Kryptonite Spectrum story time. It was kind of interesting but I don't know that I'd say I liked it either

Jack Kirby New Gods.

>>149827674
i've traveled a lot. if you live in a more conservative country like pakistan or something then sure, it's unlikely you'll encounter one (at least an open tranny) but if you live in a first world country they're common enough that it would be rare for someone to go their entire life without meeting one.

Comics are fun

>>149855765
No, they are not, I only read them so I can shitpost here

Chronos. Criminally underrated series by a criminally underrated writer.

>>149859651

I like kamala though

>>149860981
without using the words "cute" and "brown" or any synonyms or permutations there of, WHY?

Just finished issue #6 of the final Mage volume. So far I'm liking it better than volume 2. I'll try to finish it this week.
