For people that like horror or "strange stories" type comic books, should check out Black Zeppelin, they are pretty cool.



You can get 4 of the 5 issues at mycomicshop.com for $1.35 each.

I would wonder if Wolverine would regenerate from the feces or if he would do it mid-digestion like when the Hulk ate him.





This also makes me wonder what would happen if you cleaved Wolverine in two, would you get two Wolverines?

Misty Knight is the best marvel character. Marvel is the better company between them and DC, but not by much.

Lobo already did it. Then he got sad and killed the other hims. Until that bishonen one showed up to replace him.

Hey there were a lot of words about stuff I wasn't interested in reading in the op but I was wondering this: is The Life-Eaters series any good? It sounds sort of interesting, I don't want to download them but would consider buying them. Thoughts?

^^^ Severed was the last comicbook series I read, I thought it was okay, would make a decent HBO miniseries

I finished the first harcover collection the other night, it's a great story. Jason Aaron writes other stuff too, you might want to check out Southern Bastards. Football, bbq and hillbilly drama, I really like it.

The cool thing about Dredd is that there's never been a reboot or any major retconning in the whole drat run. The setting has existed since 1978 and the timeline is the exactly the same and constantly references poo poo that happened 30 or 20 years ago.
The DC and Marvel universes are pathetic compared to what 2000 AD has achieved when it comes to continuity.

marvel kinda did the same thing. the only thing they wanted was colossus was not to be brought back, then joss wheaden brought him back. that was 10-12 years ago and no one cared.

Dude, Peter Parker sold his soul to Satan to save his aunt and the whole continuity restarted! Marvel has been rebooted more times than Deadpool changes socks.
Also, Ultimates.
