The seller shipped my order to an invalid, non-existent address. On 9/29, I spoke with the seller, and they explicitly instructed me to 'sit tight' because the package would be returned to them. Because of their instruction, I did not intercept the package. The carrier has now misdelivered the items to an unknown location because the address does not exist. The seller is now refusing to help, stating the loss is mine. I have already gone to the local post office branch and filed a claim, but the seller is ultimately responsible for failing to deliver the items to my possession.

With yet another announcement behind SIKTC, I decided to research how many times he's announced something and how many times it released.

Video games: none. Tabletop only: Exquisite Corpses: The Game (in beta) and a SIKTC card in a new TCG (apparently "Gridstorm") bundled with the SIKTC #50 blind-bag variant.

Video games: none. The closest is a SIKTC trading card in a new TCG (apparently "Gridstorm") bundled with the SIKTC #50 blind-bag variant.

The only time he had something go beyond the comic book was Batman/TMNT which is not his franchise.

I know Marvel has one, but what about DC or Dark Horse?

Some things I’m into:
- Star Wars (pretty sure this is all in the Marvel one)
- Vampire: The Masquerade
- Alien
- Hellraiser
- Spawn would be cool too I suppose

I’m Chris Anderson, and these are pages from Something Seems Off #1.
The book is a surreal sci-fi/fantasy adventure with very little dialogue. These pages give you a taste of its creatures, landscapes, and visual storytelling.
It originally appeared in Heavy Metal magazine, and I’m collecting and expanding it through Power Pulp Comics.
For anyone interested in reading more, the first issue is on Kickstarter:

Happy to talk about the artwork and storytelling choices.

Im relativity new to comics, im wonder what the general thought are on singles im trade waiting on alot of series, but going to the store and picking up singles for ongoing stuff I really like or new number ones is awesome. I guess I just want to know what the general consensus is what is the best way to be buying comics and are singles really worth the extra cost as someone 6 months into the hobby?

Sometimes I see collections posted here and I wonder how often they reread their books. Are you a “one and done” kind of reader or do you often go back and read them again? If you re-read books, what’s the one you’re read the most? I’m curious to see what people like

This may be a niche (hopefully not poser) subject line but I'm a new home owner and instead of placing typical novels, coffee table books, and magazines out on my living room shelves and coffee table I was thinking of a mix of other media including comic books and graphic novels instead. I've never gotten too deep into either before, though, I currently own Absolute Watchmen - great story and cool illustrations. So any recs for comics/graphic novels with some of the best illustrated panels/frames (either artistic technique wise, or bold colors, or high contrast illustrations) so that when guests come and open them they instantly appreciate the artwork even if they're not fans of comics? I would love to be sucked into the book from the visuals alone upon opening any page at first glance so plot/story can come second.

I've only read Absolute Superman Vol 1 and Birthright so far. I want to read more Superman but the comics available in my country are very limited. These are the comics I'm interested and I want to know If I can read all of them as an individual stories without any connections to other books.

1. Superman Up in the Sky
2. Superman Secret Origin
3. Superman House of Brainiac
4. Superman: Brainiac
5. Superman: Man of Tomorrow Vol. 1: Hero of Metropolis

Like, are there books, or characters or even creators who you abso-fricken-lutely can't stand, but you still read consistently and if so why?

The classic example would if you are a diehard completionist fan of a character but the current run makes you weep, and despite that you still read.

That scenario is certainly for sure welcome in this thread, but I also wanna are there any other reasons for medium or long term hate reading a comic out there?

Hey yall im new to collecting and just began collecting single issues. And I started to question something, whenever there’s a new series or release such as the midnight series or absolute series, do people buy multiple issues because they expect them to increase in value?

For example, I remember when absolute Batman first released, and I thought it was a cool concept, but I never dove into it. A year later the first issue is worth hundred of dollars.

Now personally, I’m interested in collecting comics that have a good stories, and I’m aware of stories can start off bad and get better or start off great and get worse. Not so much as to have them increase in value.

But I assume this broadens my question, do regular comic readers usually buy comics at a gamble of whether or not the story will be good or whether or not the comic will be worth something one day?

Ps: Ive heard Super mixed reviews about the midnight series stories, so I wasn’t too interested in getting into them, but I see no reason why I shouldn’t spend a few bucks on something that could potentially be big later and maybe be worth something. I do enjoy the art anyways. But possible profits isn’t the first thing I think of when I see a new comic. I want to READ them.

Only saying Western in the title to exclude manga, because I've read a solid amount of manga and know what I like already. I've only read a few black and white American comic books. The Walking Dead is relatively older now, but I thought the art was so striking in the original black and white. I LOVE The Crow, and I really enjoyed Black Hole. Are there any other great black and white Western comics?

I've been thinking about how widely hated a lot of the New 52 stuff was, and a lot of it is valid, but I still think that the highs of the New 52 are SO high that I'd put that era above the Rebirth stuff. I mean in terms of great, impactful books what did Rebirth have that compared to the greats of the New 52? New 52 had Snyder's Batman, Morrison's Action Comics, Johns' Green Lantern, Lemire's Animal Man. Rebirth had.... Superman, Detective Comics, Deathstroke I've heard was good, but do any of those really compare to the awesome runs of the New 52? I will say I think that the lows of the New 52 (Wonder Woman....) are much lower than the lows of Rebirth, but overall I would still take the New 52 any day.

Smells and looks better

I've been reading comics for about 8 months or so for now. I don't read a lot, but i love when I do. I've read a mix of digital and physical, but my favourite of all time is to read physically.

It's especially difficult to decide because I prefer to collect single issues (I LOVE cover art, and singles are just sm easier for me to read) and omnibus'.

So, because of this, i'm having real trouble deciding what means I should buy physically and what I should just read digitally? And say i get issues 1 and 2 of a 6 issue run, should i wait until i can buy the rest of the issues?

Like, I'm a big completionist and I just like to have the full run before I read it through, but that isn't the least bit sustainable.

Can someone explain how Ghost Machine’s Junk Yard Joe and Geiger are not just blatant ripoffs of GI Robot and Doctor Phosphorous from DC Comics?

Hi! I’ve been reading comics lately, and so far I’ve been reading pretty well known Batman comics, year one, long Halloween, ect(haven’t read dark knight returns though). And I really want to read some Batman comics that are good and not the ones you hear a thousand times, that make sense?
So far the only “lesser known” Batman comics I’ve read have been Gotham county line, which my grandma got me when I was six(that was my first comic), court of owls which I haven’t finished reading but I think is good, and white knight.(I fucking hated Batman white knight I want my £8.99 back)
