Jeez Conor, quit picking a fight.

This book was my pick of the week as well.  Absolutely great in every way.  I particularly loved Reed defending himself from Sue's inevitable attack by arguing that the subject he's most versed in is HER. I don't want to be the guy who does this, but I can't help myself... @ Ron Nonplussed... you keep using this word.  I do not think it means what you think it means.  To...

@CalebTheTimeTraveler: Because of some sweetheart deal where they get prime real-estate on magazine racks, I think Archie comics are some of the highest selling comics in the industry.  That may be the Digests though, but either way, I think it sells pretty darn well.

The price of Old Man Logan is effing stupid.  That's all there is to it.  That works out to something like $4.38/issue.  That's absurd.

I don't want to be a dick, especially because my grammar is far from perfect, but I was a little turned off by the speakers usage of language.  He frequently used words that sounded good, but that I'm pretty sure were used incorrectly.  Though it wasn't spoken, a perfect example was the disclaimer that stated "They do not indicate publisher advocation of longbox", in this ca...

@Dan: Color reprints?  You mean this book was originally in color?  I've been getting the pocket books, they're black and white, and I just assumed that's the way it was. Also, I'm with whoever stated it above.  1100 page hardcover omnibus just seems a little ridiculous.  These things are going to be huge.  I've got nothing at all against hardcover books, I love 'em i...

Unthinkable looks pretty neat, but a 4-issue mini is definitely the sort of thing I'll be trying in trade.

The Goon

I can't recall for sure.  But it seems to me that the actor who portrays Ben has aged a lot in the past few years.  I recall him looking younger when we were introduced to him.
