Re: Psi-Lords in June

Generation Zero in Space . We've got a discount Green Lantern, a lame version of Wraith from Apex Legends, Hipster Jesus, and a character who's on the spectrum... the electromagnetic spectrum. Anyone else notice that the female character's personalities described them as being on the extremes of em...

All of the characters look cool, except for that red-haired character. He's literally giving me cancer from how obnoxious his design is. Sorry, I really just needed to run that line again.

Re: Harbinger - Probably the greatest team book since...well

... but I did realize that there is currently NO Harbinger book on the market. Yeah, that's a problem. But to be honest, I'm almost afraid of what the new crew would do with it. I am wary of the new management bringing in their pals rather than the best writers money can buy. I don't care how much ...

Re: Notes re: Kindt's run on X-O Manowar

So I guess the tail is just the armor not her actual never before seen tail? Can Shanhara just create other armors now? I also thought it was a pretty flimsy premise that they would just jump to the conclusion that the child's leukemia was caused by the armor, if that was the case why didn't Saana ...

Re: Book of the Month - January 2019

I voted Shadowman and Ice cream, first time I ever voted Ice cream.

Good news is VCR just got a dump of 4 books coming out and they ranged from solid to great so I'm optimistic.

Rough month for sure though.

Re: Vita Ayala and Heather Antos Talk Livewire

New characters don’t have that same privilege of years of loving and adoring fans. But that’s what makes creating new characters and new worlds such a fun and unique ...

So the Lucia thing is something that's bothered me from the beginning. • She's spoken of in the SECRET WEAPONS mini but doesn't actually appear until HW2 #0, which many people won't be able to read since it was not collected.

This arc was a chore to read, glad it’s over. I think it’s time for a fresh writer on XO. I like Ryp’s art,...but not on XO! It does not seem a good fit for some reason. :?

Livewire is all powerful, let’s just say that now. You forgot that she can turn off the entirety of the United States electrical grid in 20 seconds and turn Bloodshot into a demon. It's ridiculous. They have her powerset amped up beyond what I would accept with Harada. I like that there is still te...

Re: VALIANT ENTERTAINMENT March 2019 Solicitations

I will not chill out until I hear this is premium format.

If they can wrap a turd like XO in premium format then surely LADOTH is more than worthy.

I honestly feel VEI owes us one and this is it, don't squander it.

I dunno. She still doesn't get it. I get the sense they're gonna make her walk Harada's path of "by any means necessary." Will it move toward introspection and an admission of the horros she's caused? Or will she go full-on villain and rejoin Toyo? Quibbles: Now she flies and floats witho...
