    Another D&D comic, huh?

    by letsfightinglove

    I like the callback to the old AD&D Player's Handbook cover. But, wouldn't a gnoll know what an elf looks like?

    It's Schwarzenegger, not Schwartzeneggar

    by redegiraahgnal

    I know, it's a complicated name, but it's even spelled in huge letters on the comic you are previewing!

    OT: Thanks for I Kill Giants!

    by dave i

    This has nothing to do with the comics in THIS review, but I recall reading about I Kill Giants from this site, checked it out, and found it great! It is a title I would never have been aware of, and the cover art would probably not have caught my eye nor revealed how powerful a story was inside. Just wanted to express my sincere thanks for the heads up. It was SUCH a great comic, and without gushing too much really a better story and much more moving than I expected. Flat out awesome! A bit late to the party, but belated or not thanks for the review even if it did take me a while to get around to checking it out. -Cheers

    by dave i

    I read comics, usually graphic novels or TPBs, but yeah I try to. It's sporadic, sometimes selective, but yeah I still love the medium. -Cheers

    Quick question for any wandering @$$holes..

    by thalya

    Anyone been reviewing Giffen's Doom Patrol - particularly #6 (the Larry ish)? Just curious whether it's futile to go archive-searching back 6 months or not.

    by the penultimate gunslinger

    I'm in my mid-twenties and read comics, but my 16 year-old bro and my step bro are both Manga-addicts, so I see your point. Apparently Captain America just isn't "cool" enough for the youth of today. Those fools!

    what?

    by iamlegolas

    They made a comic about that TWILIGHT chick and her uncomfortablity with the limelight?

    Only small children and hipsters read mangas.

    sith_rising and RedEgiraahgnal

    by kontarsky

    RedEgiraahgnal - Otakus too. Wankers sit in the middle of aisles at bookstores almost tripping people, because they're too lazy to find a chair to sit in. Some were even wearing cat ears.sith_rising - In my 20s. Read comics quite a bit in my early years, late teens, and early 20s, but recent shoddy writing has turned me off to most of the series I liked reading (Thor, Captain America, Starman, Batman stuff).

    Siekiewicz should do every cover for...

    by jaka

    ...Do Androids Dream Electric Sheep? And why hell can't somebody make a good D&D comic? It's so open, with so many possibilities, it should be incredibly easy. Oh well. Maybe next time.

    Fareal

    by kungfuhustler84

    Because if everybody had that attitude, I'm not sure comic creators could make enough money to continue making those comics you so readily read for free. I myself have realized I couldn't possibly pay for all the comics I want to read, but I think it's rude to go into a store, sit around for an hour or two, and then just not buy anything. If you really enjoy reading all those comics weekly, finding one book and supporting it financially wouldn't be that hard would it?

    Wizard

    I heard Wizard are having a revamp. I hope that gets previewed. Mark Millar as guest editor.

    While I don't agree with Fareal...

    by jaka

    ...I don't think the blame is his. No, the blame rests squarely on whatever store is allowing that behavior to happen. They need to train their employees to have an understanding of the situation and the balls to take care of it. But that's not the world we live in anymore. Customer service in those bigger stores consists of apathy towards the consumer because they're interrupting a conversation that was taking place with a co-worker. I can assure you most LCS don't let that kind of mess take place.

    D&D looks pretty good!

    by spacelab

    nice to see this title focused on gameplay ideas. Have a rotating cast of characters and creators, and it could be awesome.

    one idea for that title: Just like marvel's recent Iron Fist title, have the names of the attacks appear, so people can use those in tabletop gameplay. (ex: "bull rush attack," "sword dancing" etc.)

    The D&D looks pretty good? Really?!

    I respect your opinion - to each their own. But I think it looks about four steps past completely awful.
