So, don't know if I mentioned it. I'm a huge comic nerd. I buy sometimes 40+ comics a month (not including back issues). Not sure who else is into comics around here though (I know there are some of you). I even know a few comic creators and try and help out when I can.
What all is everyone reading? Looking forward to?
With Manga I only casually read Gantz. Which is kind of right off the effing wall these days, so I kind of lost interest. But the first long run was good.
Comics, I just dead DC Comics He-Man series (issues 1-6 + Skeletor) and it was great. I loved the new take on what's happening in He-Man. It's more of a continuation of He-Man than being a reboot or anything. Basically, who won the fight and what happened after. Wednesday is going to see the release of issue 7 and the He-Man origin.
Also read Voltron Year One. It's awesome. Think about Voltron without Voltron. Sounds lame, but they turned it into a great action and intrigue piece. Sven leads the team at the beginning, but as we know Keith leads the team in Voltron. Year One is a 6 issue miniseries, so the whole thing is out now. This series is by Dynamite. They also have an Army of Darkness series too. Which is pretty good, but I'm not current on that series yet.
I'm also reading Green Arrow, Green Lantern, Green Lantern Corps, Green Lantern New Guardians and Justice League. from DC. I'm missing a few issues in these runs. Green Arrow and Justice League are really good IMO. The Green Lantern books are currently in a crossover event right now and it's been pretty cool.
MLP has a comic.
Atlas Comics is kind of around but in hiding right now. The current Atlas Comics is run by Jason Goodman, grandson of Martin Goodman. Martin is of course the man that created the Timely Comics/Marvel Comics empire. He also had Atlas Comics and later Atlas-Seaboard. The new Atlas Comics is rebooting those old Atlas Seaboard characters. Phoenix, Grim Ghost and Wulf the Barbarian. These comics are all awesome and well worth a read.
Also pretty sure Previews comes out Wednesday, so there will be some more cool stuff to talk about in there.
Also, coming up is Liberator by Matt Miner. There's a Kickstarter right here. But it's already 100% funded. This comic is about an Animal Liberation anti-hero. I'm not very into that stuff, but the comic looks cool. It also has a lot of Buzz from some pretty cool names in comics and more.
