i wonder what kind of pants he's wearing in that picture. i bet it's slacks.
Forced to start a new thread. How embarrassing.
well this thread, went nowhere fast. now you know, seth, why we, clutter up, the just announced thread with mindless nonsense, sometimes.
I only read Batman comics.
I picked up the Court of Owls TPB from the Batman relaunch. I dug it and probably will continue to read the series.
The great thing about reading comic books is that doing so likely reduces the risk of acquiring herpes. Keeping your slacks on helps as well.
Can we rename this to include parenting advice?

So good! I'm waiting for Requiem to come out. After the whole Court Of The Owls business it's the return of Joker in Death Of The Family. I thought it was pretty gruesome in some points and it was a pretty clear and awesome nod to the previous Batman/Joker stories. The ending was insane but totally underwhelming. I won't spoil anything but going from Owls to Family to Requiem was just a little weird… If you get through all of those you'll know what I mean.
Also, if you buy the books I'd suggest picking 1 series and buying each one by volume. They have a weird way of picking different issues from the whole series from multiple characters, but you end up missing a lot of stories… So you could get Death Of The Family: Joker, but it will give you 1 story from Batman, Batgirl, Red Hood, and Batman & Robin. It's weird. I'd suggest buying Batman [Vol 3, I think?] wherever it starts, because you'll get the main story and all 5 issues of Batman from that arc. Not sure why they are doing it this way… I was confused when I read Batman Vol. 1 and then Night Of Owls and some of the stuff was already in Batman vol. 1. I bought all the issues as they were released for DOTF and, to me, it made more sense. More expensive, but I enjoyed most of the characters arcs.

Was Death of the Family the one from like a year ago, where you think the Joker's going to finally get down to killing some people (and didn't you think he removed Robin's face or something) and it turns out it's some mental gamesmenship or something? That was seriously stupid. Batman in usually seriously stupid because he should just kill the Joker so he wouldn't kill in the future. Which is stupid.
Come on. Honestly. In "The Dark Knight" who were YOU rooting for?
I think "The Dark Knight Returns" is seriously overrated. Unbelievably preachy. "The Long Halloween" is alright. And that's about it.
Are you sitting down, "DeathFromAbove1979?"

im sure . . . this is who, you troll for, brian
No. Not really. But speaking of which….
Have any of you ever seen "Fast Times At Ridgemont High?" I saw it on Wednesday in a theater. Great film but it's not really a comedy. It's like 80% drama/20 % Spicolli. I mean, the main female character has an abortion half way through. It actually has 3 actors who would eventually win Best Actor in it.
However, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Phoebe Cates look like they are about 12 years old in it. I thought I was going to be arrested once I left the theater. I felt like Woody Allen.

that, was for, the skin flute comment, from before. ;)
Let's talk about sex. Comics are sooooo boring. Lets talk about your second sexual partner. How did you meet, was it good, did you ever see the person again?
HEY ATOMIC, BRIAN_WALLACE, AND RHETT: WOULD YOU GUYS LET YOUR KIDS READ COMIC BOOKS? WHY OR WHY NOT? THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR THE SAGE WISDOM!!!
