Was just reading this. I'm curious to see the big screen version of the SS Harley Quinn. She's like uber sexualized in it. I hope they show more acrobatics than they did of Catwoman in Nolan's Batman. Which was practically nothing lol.

I'm ready for a new Joker interpretation. A lot of places are asking if it's too soon. I say more Batman and Joker.

they make a comic book out of bobs burgers?  i tried that show . . . my partner and i looked at each other half way through the first episode and said what a horrible piece of animated crap.  nice drawings killsaly, and boy i remember when i would go into local comic book shoppees and purchase fine comics in specific bags and backboards.  the people in there who must of spent their every free time in the place were better than the books.

I know so many people who love Bob's Burgers. I decided to give it a shot. I've been told "stick with it, it gets really good." I'm about 6 or 7 episodes in. It's funny. Something is missing for me though. Maybe the voices are too obnoxious? I don't know what it is. I tell you what though, it's a very welcome change from the Seth Mcfarlane Fox Block.

Still think [adult swim] does the best animation. Rick & Morty is gold.

Bob's Burgers rules.  It is probably the best cartoon on TV at the moment. 

Also, Third Eye Comics sells unbagged comics - I have to bag and board them when I get home.

Lastly, yes, the people are fun to watch at the comic shop, including the employees.

that's pretty common. most places will charge you a quarter or so for a bag/board. or else they only do it for those with subs. besides, you buy comics to read them and enjoy them. not preserve them, right?

My friend gave me shit because I had all my Batman comics in a stack. I have maybe 2 or 3 in a bag. I like to keep them authentic. Lol.

i have forgotten about my stored comics.  it is a shame, because they just sit in Rubbermaid containers and never become exposed to light of freedom or the fresh air of the past.  like an animal in a cage at a zoo in a town in the middle of nowhere.

I buy bags and boards by the 100.  They are a bit less than a quarter apiece. 

I buy comics for my fiance to read; I also buy comics for myself to read.  I also buy comics to collect.

The TPBs/graphic novels are lined up in order on one of my bookshelves.  The single issues are all in this comic storage box/crate thing.

My manga are all lined up on a few selves.

Guardians of the Galaxy soundtrack is free on Google Play today.

Midnight Black Friday sale at Third Eye Comics in 10 hours (I will probably show up at 1AM or 2AM)!

have comic books gotten that insanely overpriced that they really need to have a Black Friday sale? Really?

Who doesnt like a sale?  The whole store is on sale.  Why are you Grinching up my thread?

That Star Wars preview though…

Suicide Squad starts filming in April!!!

Just finished Attack On Titan [season 1] over the weekend. Anyone into that? Or any other anime? I was hooked from the beginning. I randomly caught an episode my gf was watching and she explained the premise so I looked it up and started. Intense show. Season 1 aired from 2011-2012? I think? How the hell is season 2 not coming out til 2016? This is like Venture Brothers levels of torture between seasons.

I watch anime/read manga.  I have yet to read or watch Attack on Titan though.  It is on my list… I really want the omnibus (maybe I put it on my Christmas list)…

I saw that the Marvel/Attack on Titan crossover is a go.


Currently I am watching two shows for the second time - Inuyasha and Death Note, two of my all time favorites.
