Kirkman did an interview recently about the fact that the first 100 issues were about surviving. Now, it's going to be about rebuilding. If that's really the case, I think that's great. Issue #96 definitely took a step in that direction. This Jesus character and The Saviors sound pretty interesting.
If these covers are an indictation of what's coming, then it will also be bloody.

VERY BLOODY

The black and white pages added to the noir effect, and it took about half an hour to read, including the two pages of editorial backdrop. The story was solid, and I went ahead and picked up the rest of the series via mycomicshop. It went 5 issues. Caliber also printed two Nightstreets trades, the second of which reprinted issue 5, and new content. That second trade is 128 pages, and I bought that too. There must be lots of new content to reprint just one issue and total 128 pages.
I'm looking forward to reading the letter Harlan Ellison had published in issue 2.
I've had dealings with Randy Zimmerman of Arrow and Caliber. Really personable guy. Quality stuff for such a "local level" publisher, both Arrow and Caliber. I saw a full set of Caliber, recently, and I mean 1 of EVERY book they every published.
Cool. :thumb:

Saga #2 cause my LCS sold out, and didn't put it on my Pull-List, even though I had said to. Grr, but I found it and got 2 copies.
How was it? Was the issue ad free like #1?

I finished off re-reading all of Proof. This is probably the comic I miss most.


I started re-reading Chew. I'm through the first 12 issues or so.

It was ok. I just couldn't remember what happened each issue.

I read an issue of Reed Gunther and it did alot better job of providing good, clean fun.

Obviously I was joking (see: the outlandish number), quit being a *SQUEE*. Back on ignore
Wow. Some people really can't take a joke.

I've always really liked the Shadow and that cover is superb...just wasn't sure if Garth's the right writer for it. So you recommend it?

It was 4 years in the making but... after re-reading:

The Twelve 1-8

I just read The Twelve 9-12.

It was worth the wait.

I enjoyed this series very much.
