Pretty Self-Explainitory.... :)


Borrowed Flash: Rebirth from my cousin last night and I literally finished it in a matter of hours. Over 160-pgs and I blew through it like it was a Dr. Seus book. :D

Simply put, Geoff Johns is a genius and has put together one of the best graphic novels I have ever read, easily one of the best stories of the year! :D DC Fans have to read this one, no ifs, ands, or buts about it!

Reading Iron Man: Armor Wars and just finishing up The Walking Dead HC 3. Will probably start reading Secret Warriors next week when my Amazon order arrives.

Glad your liking Flash: Rebirth. I was on the fence about picking it, not 100% sure how I feel about Geoff Johns at this point (still catching up on Green Lantern). If I have the opportunity I think I will check it out.

I certainly recommend it, this book is awesome! Seriously, Geoff Johns is a genius. :D Haven't read Green Lantern: Secret Origins or Rebirth yet, but hope to get around to it some time soon.

Dead Space: Salvation, just finished that. Pretty interesting, though the art seemed a little messy (it was really hard to make out what was happening in some panels). The photo-realistic technique the artist was going for was a little inconsistent for some characters, making it difficult to differentiate who's who.

Specter of the Past is a huge favorite of mine Prowl. I love how Pellaeon toured the Empire, thus fleshing it out a little.:)

I'm reading Glenn Cook's 'The Black Company' books again and am loving every page... fantasy fiction meets Vietnam War film. The vast sweeping struggle between good and the forces of darkness boiled down to the perspective of the men in the platoon.

Highly reccomended to anyone who enjoys flecks of realism in their fantasy or needs a break from Goodkind or Jordan.

I'm really liking the Night of Owls arc for Batman. They should really make a movie out of it. :D

Picked up Batman #10 today. I had to confirm my hunch as to who was behind the Court of Owls. (Not going to spoil it for those of you who haven't read it yet. ;) )

My hunch was correct. The part that I wasn't expecting was the person's past. :eek:

Also I would really like Mattel to make this character into an action figure! Movie Masters or DCUC. It'll totally be badass! :clapping: :D

It didn't strike you as odd that they could fly to Nal Hutta or Tattooine, without lightspeed, in like 40 hours? :p

Basically he's saying that someone could fly across the entire galaxy in the same time it takes someone to drive across Canada.

Thats the biggest one. The other was the placement of worlds in relation to the Star Wars Atlas, which doesn't jump out as much.
