It's weird how that Terminator 2 video game ad will probably be forever imprinted in my brain, but I can't recall any ads from the last new comic I read. Also binding your comics with the ads is a PRO move, they definitely add some nice nostalgia.

Found a JLA Deluxe Vol 2 at MSRP this weekend when I went back to NYC, I am jazzed like a mofo. That makes 3 out of the 4. Now, the ridiculous hunt for JLA Deluxe Vol. 1, when I've just moved outside Philly and only know of one comic shop.

Picked up Locke & Key: Keys to the Kingdom today and I am kind of disappointed in the big Eisner Award nominee sticker that is not really a sticker on the front cover and the lack of a bookmark like the previous volumes. It is a small complaint but I felt like it added a nice touch.

Once a town controlled by organized crime, Gotham City suddenly finds itself being run by lawless freaks, such as Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, and the Joker. Witnessing his city’s dark evolution, the Dark Knight completes his transformation into the city’s greatest defender. He faces multiple threats, including the seeming return of a serial killer called Holiday. Batman’s previous investigation of Holiday’s killings revealed that more than one person was responsible for the murders. So the question remains: who is committing Holiday’s crimes this time?

Glenn Danzig posted:THE DC UNIVERSE BY ALAN MOORE HC This is something like the sixth time they've printed this with slightly different contents. OTOH, my copy is a very early soft cover (the one wit the missing text from Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow) so I may buy it anyway. Resurrection Man and Catwoman are definite buys for me but I think if I were to get THUNDER Agents I'd buy it in Archives edition (just as soon as I wrap up The Spirit and Plastic Man).

My local store was going out of business, and they just happened to have it on the shelf. I'm 99% sure they were previously on hold for an employee who left the company right before the closing sales, because I definitely would have bought them for regular price had I seen them there before.

Happy Hippo posted:Is that Alan Moore DC collection worth getting? Killing Joke aside, I haven't read any of his cape books. Totally worth it. Most of the stuff is really good short story work, with a few clunkers mixed in there. The Green Lantern back-ups (which allegedly got Kevin O'Neill banned from DCU) almost make it worth it alone.
