Buy These Flippin Comics!!! (11.06.2013) – Cold November Rain
Hey folks, Johnny here for another week of comics mirth, mayhem, and pull-list jibber-jabber! As I write this, I’m looking out my window on a cold, wet, Midwestern fall day – miserable in all respects, but perfect for one thing: sitting inside, listening to music and readin’ comics! For shut-ins like myself the Comixology app has been a godsend in that if the weather doesn’t abide, no matter, I can grab all this week’s goodies digitally.
Remember, you can check out all this week’s releases HERE.
As always, if I don’t mention a book that you think deserves more love, speak up! Though my wallet doesn’t quite agree, I’m always eager to try new books, and the OL community wants YOUR input. Yes you. I’m pointing right at you. This week brings kind of an eclectic group of titles, so let’s get down to business, shall we?
Fan Made ‘Thor: The Dark World’ POSTER containing SERIOUS BROMANCE is FEATURED in Shanghai Theater
This is all sorts of wonderful. A fan made poster for Thor: The Dark World featuring some smoldering adopted-brother romancing has found its way into a theater. Well done, fandom. Well done, Shanghai theater.
Hit the jump.
Bask in the beauty.
Marvel reveals NEW MS. MARVEL. A Muslim Teenager From New Jersey. Diversity, Get!
Dope. Even as Galactus is trying to eat Miles Morales’ ass or whatever in the Ultimate Universe (Gross, bro! He’s a minor), Marvel isn’t done punching up their line-up with some diversity. The Company That Believes in Simultaneous Events has revealed the new Ms. Marvel, and she is a Muslim teenager from New Jersey.
‘Breaking Bad’ spin-off ‘BETTER CALL SAUL’ could ALSO BE A SEQUEL?
We’ve known for a bit that Better Call Saul was going to be set before Breaking Bad, and chronicle the journeys of the Crazy Like a Fox lawyer who ended up meeting the Maelstrom That Was Heisenberg. However, now it looks like we might get a peek Saul Goodman’s life after that whole Walter White thing. As well. Additionally? Maybe?
‘THE RAID 2: BERANDAL’ Trailer: PUNCH WALLS, DESTROY ENEMIES
Ohhh baby. If you’ve done goofed up and not caught The Raid yet, you might want to get on that shit. Immediately. The ferociously violent, yet entertaining inventive action flick has spawned a sequel, and the trailer for it has arrived.
Goddamn.
Yes.
Playing ‘SUPER MARIO 64’ makes YOUR BRAIN BIGGER. YEAH, SCIENCE.
Man. No wonder when I was thirteen I could remember every creature in the Cantina, recite lines from my favorite books, and generally have a more cogent experience drifting through the world. I played Super Mario 64 all fucking day.
‘EPISODE VII’ CASTING SHEET sort of suggests MAIN CHARACTERS AREN’T SKYWALKERS OR SOLOS.
You’re tired of my dry-humping Episode VII speculation until the skin leaves my testicles in hardened, red clumps? I don’t know what to tell you. I’m excited about this enterprise. Very excited. Latest batch of news surrounds a Disney casting sheet which suggests the main characters of the next trilogy ain’t Skywalkers or Solos.
‘THE WOLVERINE’ getting a SEQUEL with Hugh Jackman and James Mangold returning
If, uh, a movie makes like $100+ million in the woods, and only a bear talks about it, does it exist? That’s my metaphysical question. ‘Cause The Wolverine is getting a sequel. Despite it being a relatively fun movie with a dreadful final act, I can’t really remember anyone giving a fuck about it. And yet! Here it is. Sequel primed.
SPACEGASM: The MILKY WAY may have 20 BILLION EARTH-SIZED PLANETS.
Kepler is always doing work! On its galactic grind. Crunching numbers. The latest calculations bound to blow out your space-bunghole is the finding that one out of every five sunlike stars has a planet the size of Earth.
Rumor: ‘AGENTS OF SHIELD’ and ‘CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER’ will CONNECT.
Is this surprising? I mean, we’ve already had it confirmed that Thor: The Dark World and Agents of SHIELD will connect. So like, why the fuck would Marvel scale back the Synergy Train? I say fuck slowing down! Toot, toot! All aboard the cohesive universe.
Motherfuckers!
