It’s the beginning of movie season.

Hello, Storyteller.

One should expect nothing less.

ugh, noooo

Pretty good.
You OP?

I survived the thousand mile road trip!!!

Awesome!
God bless.

movies were a mistake

did N52 undo the damage done to Jean Loring?

oh shit surprise cameo!

Attached: Chronos.v1_003.Imbie.09.jpg (974x1547, 502K)

Okay. A bit disheartened that Article 13 passed. Because that's exactly what we needed, corps having even more power over us, to straight up Orwellian levels.

so what's good today?

Attached: Chronos.v1_003.Imbie.12.jpg (976x1547, 470K)

Go-Bots had a surprisingly somber finale.
I'm kinda affected by it.

Dial H for Hero was a whole lot of fun.
And LOEG was just...weird.


Good Week.

Hey OP.
How goes?

Fantastic Four, Spider-Man/Deadpool, Umbrella Academy, LoEG,

I'm alive!

ralph and sue are alive so I think so, but DC canon has had less consistency than year old milk lately

nice chaperon, dude

Well, we still Snapper.

We ALL still have Snapper!

Tex I finally got Sylvando Chivalry

that fucking fight is annoying

Is that the one you had to finish with a pep power? Those suck

yeah, and you had to do it to each of them, and kill them with it, and the crowning offense one time was I did it, it didn't kill him, then Rab hit him next round with his staff and he died

after putting out the most underwhelming 1000th issue in history, Chris Conroy is promoted to oversee the Vertigo/Black Label imprints and presumably Khouri is on his way out after fucking up the penis in Damned, Border Town dude being a sexual predator and the rest of the relaunch selling less than the previous one after three issues

lol

It's never not movie season.

The shitposting is easy enough to avoid by not going online. *taps forehead*

I'd assume not.
And even if it had, I'm sure somehow she's back to using tiny flamethrowers to cover up her brainmurders.

as the Magic 8-Ball says, SIGNS POINT TO YES

(sadly no letters pages in the scans here)

Cyberpunk is real. And it's boring as shit.

I remember climbing that in Assassin's Creed!

I don't think I ever actually a book with Khouri's name in the editor slot.
I guess I pretty much stuck with the Mahan/SU stuff.
By the way, Lucifer finished it's first arc with fantastic consistent art, but the story might upset anyone who liked Carey's stuff a bit (not a direct continuation and murks a bit of the lore)

so this past weekend went to Carlsbad Caverns. Highly recommend as a trip, but man it's in the middle of fucking nowhere

We don't even have sapient robots, holograms, or advanced cybernetics. The tradeoff of corps effectively owning our lives is that we were supposed to have cool technology! Instead, we have fuckin Instagram.

kinda want that jacket ngl, patches included

and twitter, which even people who like call "this hellsite"

And Facebook. Don't forget that shithole.

Plus, most cyberpunk dystopias don't have nazis running around doing whatever they want.

Vyronis as Time Trapper when?

Only the ones brought forward by your super dupers ilk.

Did you grab a souvenir bat?

didn't see any bats! did see the cave swallows going into the Natural Entrance, which is fucking amazing. But we have several million bats where I live, so I'm good

It is a cool jacket. Are the Galaxy Knights and the Knights of the Galaxy seperate groups?

Attached: Chronos.v1_004.Imbie.12.jpg (972x1542, 375K)

cool stuff OP

I don't even know

Attached: Chronos.v1_004.Imbie.13.jpg (968x1546, 416K)

I hope this Dial H continues to be fun. The last two series were bleak (with H-E-R-O being relentessly dark/and fetishy). The New52 was good at least, and HERO had some good parts.
Hey OP, have you ever run them?

I don't think I have, myself

Attached: Chronos.v1_004.Imbie.14.jpg (972x1546, 473K)

that's a great WTF face on Walker

Attached: Chronos.v1_004.Imbie.15.jpg (976x1544, 369K)

Yeah, and while New 52 Dial H was bleak...it was also very emboldening.
Fuck yeah Rescue Jack!

Speaking of which, did Doomsday Clock get delayed yet again? Johns, just end this already so Bendis can ruin the Legion like we all know he will. It's like ripping off a band aid, just do it quickly so it hurts less. Goddamn.

Attached: Chronos.v1_004.Imbie.16.jpg (981x1545, 404K)

Ah. I don't have links because I have shit internet upload power right now (I couldn't even post the first page from H-E-R-O in that thread), but the first 15 or so issues of H-E-R-O were put up on cmx and ripped. I'm sure someone else has then handy if need be.
The first arc has very nice art by Kano

One thing I learned on my roadtrip was that I thought I knew how much Texas there was, but fuck, there's a lot of Texas.

254 counties!

Many of which really have no business existing (looking at you, Loving) but that's another story.

the neat thing was going east to west then west to east, seeing where the bluebonnet line is

Ooh pretty!

'Tis the season, isn't it.

The first arc of HERO was pretty emboldening I loved Supes' appearance but then there was the whole Shocking Suzie debacle, and then the serial killer...
That caveman issue was good though.
I think I first saw the series when Texas was running the Suzie arc

mine are really good this year, too

Meanwhile here in California some idiot decided to land a helicopter on top of a poppy bloom. Stay on the trails, you fools!

the oil patch north of Fort Stockton is extremely depressing, tho, recommend avoiding if possible

What am amiable bunch of lionmen.

Gabe's interior decorating is a bit like a Gen X version of David's. Little trinkets and posters all over the place.

Hey, Storyteller. On your twitter, you mentioned that you found Nu52 Stormwatch to be an insane mess. Care to elaborate?


Although, I think pretty much everyone knows about the Father Time thing. Also, we should read Battle for Bludhaven one of these days. It's a glorious trashfire.

Attached: Chronos.v1_005.Imbie.02.jpg (986x1541, 423K)

Man the only problem with a consistent night schedule is missing all these storytimes! Hi thead!

Still team DCKomics here

>Also, we should read Battle for Bludhaven one of these days. It's a glorious trashfire.
That is such a bloody miniseries. As in, so much violence.
At least it launched the first of those FF minis.

Well, Cornell was just plain boring, Milligan was absolutely trolling everyone who was intent on Apollo/Midnighter, Starlin mashed the reset button and gave us rapist alien snowy owls...

ugh, noooo

100% on board with BfB

Hi user!

Nu52 "Wildstorm" was a hot mess....

I still have fever dreams about the underground society of neanderthals issue

Cornell being that boring given a fresh start and all that material is the most inexcusable thing

Attached: Chronos.v1_005.Imbie.04.jpg (966x1539, 457K)

It also isn't a time travel story without an onscreen death to reverse with time travel.

can't disagree with that

Attached: Chronos.v1_005.Imbie.06.jpg (963x1543, 484K)

>ugh, noooo
And Captain Atom blows up again!
And I think that's when he goes and kills the Wildstorm Universe

Unrelated, but how has that Freedom Fighters series been?

Lucky, apparently most Canadian bats are dying of white nose.

>Unrelated, but how has that Freedom Fighters series been?
Hitler Jr. gets the absolute shit trolled out of him when the gang blows up Mt. Reichmore.

No, he blows up the Wildstorm Universe after that B/S arc, BfB is where he turns into Monarch again

white nose is hurting here too, it's awful :(

Boring and kinda bland.

It's only claim is being gory.

Cool, MM and WW got ripped

>boring
>keeping a power couple apart for no reason
>pointless
Yep, that sure does look like a recipe for trash. Also, I assumed the rape owls were older than that. Guess not.

Seriously, it's total dreck, and I love it.

I think Milligan had to be doing it out of sheer spite but it gave us 1) Zealot's dickcycle 2) that Valentine's Day story which was a masterpiece of passive-aggression

Attached: Chronos.v1_005.Imbie.11.jpg (965x1544, 530K)

Ah. I just glanced at the thread, and if the reply times are right, it looks like it got autosaged again.
Unless it managed to hit page 10 in fifteen minutes or so

>Seriously, it's total dreck, and I love it.
>Ravager straight up runs one of the govt FF through with a sword, blood everywhere, and Tim doesn't even blink.
And what was the fucking deal with the secret bunker under the city? Did that ever come up again?

Attached: Chronos.v1_005.Imbie.14.jpg (954x1546, 397K)

This part always bothered me so much, especially since the major conflict between Ravager and the rest of the Titans in the actual TT ongoing was her more murderous tendencies, but I guess she gets a freebie once? What the fuck?

Attached: Chronos.v1_005.Imbie.15.jpg (958x1543, 332K)

I don't think P&G were really thinking much of that through. All they seemed keen on was launching their Freedom Fighters series of minis, and delivering lots of brutality (and somehow getting a creator owned character in it)

Yeah, long road trips are a tiring experience. I have to travel like 7 hours to Toronto to see medical specialists, so I know that feel.

>Zealot's dickcycle
Okay, yeah, can't really hate on that.

>passive-aggressive Valentine's issue
???

I THINK it may have come up somewhere in Infinite Crisis? Either way, it commits the heinous crime of utterly wasting the Atomic Knights.

And then Hal shows up out of nowhere and attacks Major Force with a refrigerator construct... It's a spectacle.

Cain is just a self indulgent parody of herself.

also who was in the back seat with the nieces? \o_

the New 52 Young Romance special, and the Midnighter/Apollo story in it is, uhhh...hard to describe how completely inappropriate it is for that issue

the surrealism throughout the latest issue is also deeply fucking lazy

How's JMD's Defenders? His original run, not the Giffen/Maguire one.

I would read that series.

Isn't that part of Tom Strong?

>garishly costumed

I mean, who isn't in this book?

Well, for one, Apollo and Midnighter are in their late 20s/early 30s, so it ain't exactly "young" romance to begin with.

>hard to describe
It has been a while since we've had a Storytime of Pain...

Thanks for posting as always, Storyteller.

Gotta say, this book has been pretty solid so far. Legit interested in where it's going.

Calling it now: Gabriel tampers with the brakes of the car that kills his mom, because casaulity.

>deeply lazy

That sounds on brand for her.

Thanks for running, OP.
Congrats on surviving Road Trip Kiddy Table.

Can we do NYS too? Texas sucks, but first things first.
