Certainly better then in print when the center art gets lost in the gutter

I vaguely recall the fighter craft in 86ers heavily reminding me of colonial Vipers. Only perhaps without wings.

QuoteThis, this is the beginning of the end.

The beginning of the end of not having access to all of Red Seas?

Oddly it hasn't turned up on ComiXology yet. Previous volumes have been promptly released, so I wonder what's up.

Best single issue comic?

Mega Man 35


No, I am not kidding.


Jack Staff 12 is a close 2nd.

Speaking of DHP, Dark Horse just put every issue, including 200, on sale for .99 cents on their digitial store. I used it as excuse to get caught up with all 7 issues of volume 3.

First issue was a a decent mix. But I'm increasing convinced that Geof Darrow may not actually be that good of a comic creator. Sure his artistic skill is exceptional, but he doesn't really do anything truly interesting with it. Just rehashes the same images over and over again, then calls it a 'story'. I will say the Big Guy & Rusty story was marginally better then the issues of Shaolin Cowboy I read last year.

Its hilarious how hard Black Clover is trying to be Naruto. Its not bad though, I kind of like [spoiler]the idea of the main character being so bad at magic he's become the avatar of anti-magic.[/spoiler]

DIGITAL PULLS FOR THE WEEK OF 02/11/15

2000 AD 1917 - Finally catching up on January. SAVAGE has turned to complete shit after years of at least being okay, I'm not sure I care about ORLOK at all, ULYSSES SWEET is just kind of there, and JUDGE DREDD DARK JUSTICE is a bit more of a slow burn then I expected. But THE ORDER is the most radical kind of genre mash-up that I love. Kek-w is an under utilized treasure.  Bring back SECOND CITY BLUES!!!

ASTRO CITY 20 - This arc about Quarrel and Crackerjack has been STUPENDOUS.

SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 269 - Ever since Archie comics jumped up to $3.99 (with no price drop) its been harder and harder to keep up with this title. Its good, but not $4 good. Honestly I've been just keeping up in anticipation for the Summer Mega Man crossover.

TECH JACKET 8 - I'm really digging this series. Great action, great characters, epic scale, and not afraid to surprise the reader.

WILD'S END 6 - Sad that this wonderful series is over.

WEEKLY SHONEN JUMP 11 - Chapter 1 KAGAMIGAMI was EXCELLENT. I'd actually forgotten about the pilot One-Shot last year, and the restart was just as entertaining. Skeevy fanservice bits aside... I really like the main characters, especially since the girl detective appears to be the POV character. I hope this one gets to stick around. MY HERO ACADEMIA is also radical as fuck. I can't believe it took 30 chapters to get added to the line-up. So frustrating.  The rest of the upcoming Jump Start new series previews all look like they have potential.

The upcoming line-up

They all look like they have potential so far.

Wondy's boobs look significantly smaller then they were in the 90s.

As I understand it Brian Azzarello absolutely killed it on the Wonder Woman relaunch. Made her unique and relevant again.

Hawk, you're digital right? Just grab EGOs 1 off ComiXology.
