Dude, have you read the Marvel Zombies? They're crazy cool artwork, the story's a bit for wanting.

[coalescence]

Rofl! Thats really cool artwork yeah. Damn, when I'm going to a bigger city ill check the comic store, but its probably limited :bad:

The thing in my town is that they only have kiddie stuff and x-men, spiderman and spawn. And those 3 are in dutch, while I rather would have them in english.

[Fenix]

I think that's the first time I've ever heard Spawn described as "kiddie" lol

Then you clearly misread, read it again ;)

[Fenix]

Yes. Yes I did. Though, I would like to argue that Spiderman is relatively kiddy compared to a lot of comics.

Mwah, depends on whos writing it on that moment.

[Fenix]

True, but just the basic story.

Compare.

A guy in blue and yellow spandex with pointy things in his hand (Wolverine)

A nerd in red and blue spandex shooting white sticky stuff (Spiderman)


Ok, so maybe Spiderman is a bit mature...

[coalescence]

True true. But I'm glad that x-men are rid of the spandex, they're no all leathered and kevlar-ed up.

[Fenix]

Yeah, 'tis a cool look....I honestly did like Wolverine's original costume though.

I actually don't. I like the new style, I like what they did to cannonball ;D

No, new as in: I just bought the damn book, and the name is called new x-men because they just went a whole new way with the school, the name of this series was later returned to x-men again and they started a new series called new x-men which handles the students.

[hillzagold]

[coalescence]

This topic has been inactive in like 2 months? Posting something new to bring it up again is ok I guess?

Just finished reading this series;

It's really nice, it's a quite cynical story about the upcoming apocalypse set in motion by God and Satan. But the 2 persons that are required to really start it, Jay (christ) and Danny Wormwood (the antichrist), dont want anything of that. Funny comic.

[josh]

whew. i almost made another thread about comics. it's a good thing i remembered to use the search function first.

this is my real favorite comic books: ;D

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pugad_Baboy

its pugad baboy. it's real funny and it's great for social and political awareness. too bad it won't be translated in other languages. ;D

i also like reading archie comics, preferably jughead.

EDIT: @coalescence

[-LT-]

My favourite is diabolik. He's the best.

[TerranGod]

[Ensomgrav]

Marvel zombies is really great yeah, I have them on my computer. Wish I had the money to buy all the comics but its really expensive to collect :(

[BnechbReaker]

i am currently following bleach, has anyone seen it?

You are in the wrong topic.

[BnechbReaker]

comic, manga, what's the difference?

[Ensomgrav]

one you read back wards, thats a key difference, mangas tend to be black and white also. while comics vary greatly but tend to be colored. The aliens comics, any of the new conan ones, and even the warcraft mangaish comic was good.

[BnechbReaker]

but we don't need a separate thread on manga so i'm just fitting it in here :)

[Ensomgrav]

true ... it is more conveniant

[coalescence]

yada yada yada bla yada yeah yeah.
I thought he was talking about the anime, which isnt that strange cause he sayd 'seen' and not 'read'

[BnechbReaker]

sorry my fault, the anime is **** there are so many boring fillers

[coalescence]

It's ok :P

Anime conversions are most of the time nothing compared to the manga. Take a look at Full Metal Alchemist (by all means, I loved the FMA anime, but thats not the point here). First 10 episodes are about the same as the manga then they changed the story stopped after 52 episodes (while the manga still isn't done and its really going in another direction) followed by a crappy movie. Woohoo.

[Ensomgrav]

i hate most anime... its boring
