Good evening owls,
...what
JSA Storytime: Gen13
Jackson Wright
Luke White
not gonna lie, it's sunny and cool outside, so if I vanish for bits, that's why
Bentley Nelson
The sport of kings.
Cooper Williams
Brandon Fisher
these scans are rough, woo
Owen Johnson
Hello, Storyteller.
>"surprise mechanics"
>so-called Hardcore Gamers are STILL whining about Tifa's tits and are now demanding sports bra lore
Holy shit, fuck video games.
Also, this comic never gave a fuck in the first place. Lizard racing is a filler episode.
Elijah Hughes
If I see another hot take about how SJWs killed Vertigo....
Josiah Perry
those aren't even good hot takes, BAKA
Samuel Gonzalez
you really can't talk about how you kind of want to screw your mentor figure to your dad, can you
Luke Myers
Evan Stewart
Oh fuck off. Vertigo died because nobody fucking buys anything that isn't Batman. I highly fucking doubt DA SJWs are going out of their way to make damn sure the most previleged superhero in existence is the only one that consistently sells worth a damn. I swear these conspiracy nut dipshits don't have the physical ability to think about the nonsense that spews from their fucking mouths.
Grayson Cooper
I spent a few hours yesterday making collages of every new item shipped per year for the last decade of Vertigo, and damn has it been shit for at least seven years. It was a long, long time coming
Elijah Sanders
oh, the other dumbass comics twitter thing of the week is NEPOTISM, because JJ and kid are writing some Spidey comic no one cares about
Jose Russell
People wouldn't care as much about that if
>Marvel didn't decide to do a four part countdown for it
>Yoshida didn't tell everyone that he was about the make the industry's jaws drop at the giant announcement
Easton Walker
it's nice and cool outside...and there are about five million mosquitos, fuck
Jacob Torres
I'm not actually kidding. These fucks are actually questioning the validity of sports bras existing in the FFVII universe. You can't make this shit up.
Like, I haven't even played the game, and even I've heard of the bit where Cloud finds Tifa's "orthopedic underwear". Fucking fake gamers.
Unless Abrams Spidey ends up being a hilariously convoluted Lost-esque mess, it has no reason to exist.
Aiden Wood
Oh yeah, but if you're not desensitized by now to Marvel promo bullshit you must be a total n00b
Carson Perry
Jaxon Nelson
Everybody's favorite youtuber did a video on it, and there's been at least two threads parroting what he said
Landon Walker
As predicted, Roxy is 1000% into lizard racing
Oh man, I've replayed 8 and 9 a whole lot, but not 7. I could find my PS2 and memory card...or I could fire up the PC edition....
Sebastian Nguyen
Also people balking at the existence of an "ethics department" like it's a sign of the end times, as if literally every company hasn't had a Standards and Practices department for decades
Adam Cruz
Nicholas Myers
doesn't he keep saying that? how do people keep falling for this shit when it happens twice a month?
Nolan Nelson
I caved and bought the switch edition, I've never played it before
The button that heals my health every turn and fills up the limit meter is a much appreciated addition
Evan Wright
Grunge is too pure for this world
Grayson Wright
PC edition has some good mods, like uprez'd backgrounds and a newer, more accurate translation
Because within 24 hours people have moved onto the next thing to be angry and/or excited about and forgotten all about what they were angry about earlier
Isaiah Green
You know, I hadn't even thought about mods, but that's a great point.
I keep putting off installing Frosty and getting geared up for another DAI run, but I should just do it
wait what
James Russell
(still got to finish my DA2 trash run, maybe later tonight I can just blast through the rest of it)
Lucas Morris
damn, that's a mic drop
...it also sounds almost like, you know
Julian White
my main preparation for the rest of the summer has been buying another bottle of Stranahan's
Oliver Reyes
it's called boost mode I think, it heals the party's HP and automatically fills up everybody's limit meter
there's also a no encounter mode which is nice if I'm feeling lazy
Colton Harris
Is it just me, or did Roxy suddenly get smarter at some point? She got a boost to her INT score, and I can't place when this happened.
I'm waiting for the Remake. FFVII seems like I would enjoy it, but I just can't with turn based combat most of the time.
That may be the actual dumbest thing. Oh no, a company has a department designed to keep them out of deep shit? How awful!
And it wasn't even an ethics issue. They just wanted Tifa to not look fucking stupid with her titties floppin' around while she's fighting.
Brayden Morgan
Why does he draw Roxy like a 40 year old gutter slut?
Gavin Foster
the most annoying thing about the idiots whining about Tifa is that her tits are still big! They just have no idea how boobs work on a 3D person and they think anything smaller than a watermelon is basically flat
Levi Wood
Okay, no encounters is great because one of the best things in FF8 is how early you can turn that on, but...eh, I'm modding for casual difficulty too sometimes, it's nice when it's an option.
Anthony Murphy
Ethan Allen
It's indicative of the inherent issues with trying to remake a game that was originally portrayed with stylish anime graphics, now with shiny realistic graphics.
Changing Cloud and Aerith's hair to fit the realistic artstyle, no one makes a peep, but make Tifa's body realistically proportional, and it's now an attack on gamers and men everywhere!
Adam Gray
Seriously. Even with the bra, she is apparently an H-cup, from what I've heard from people who know more abut boobs than me(i.e women). You'd think these morons, obsessed with tits as they are, would realize that mammaries are squishy.
The worst part of all this is that this """""""controversy"""""""" is detracting from Tifa's character. Everyone is so obsessed with her boobs, that they are forgetting literally everything else about her.
Brayden Long
ugh, this hyper-realism thing in general in games
Gabriel Parker
Hunter Robinson
William Baker
Brody Gonzalez
The last three Lara Croft's have been very big too, they just fit her frame better.
Luis Cox
Joseph Lewis
James Robinson
Nothing of value was lost.
Retarded "graphic novels" for emos who are too afraid to admit they read comics.
Hiring someone who hates comics to edit comics was levitz's biggest mistake
Carter Bailey
Wyatt Jones
Real talk, that needs to stop. First, because it's really fucking boring to have every game look the damn same. And second, because it's absurdly expensive. Video games are not magic, and you kind of have to pick what parts you focus your resources on. Since it's an interactive medium first and foremost, the logical thing is to focus on the gameplay, and then the story. Y'know, the shit that actually matters. All these high-res, hyper-realistic graphics detract from the actual game itself by being a waste of resources.
Logan Wood
Quality art direction is really important but that's not the same as "you can see her boobs jiggle perfectly", and for hairstyles for custom characters, modders take that on themselves
Bentley Cook
Mike Ginicola, wanting to know why Roxy isn't Fairchild sized in the chest
Grayson Miller
Dominic Myers
So, how realistically proportional is Cloud's Buster Sword?
Jace Rivera
>Quality art direction is really important
It is arguably vital. If you want a game/comic/show/whatever to have any real staying power, you must make it look unique, or else it will get lost in the pile.
When you look at a Dragon Quest game for example, you instantly recognize it as a goddamn Dragon Quest game. Even people who don't play Dragon Quest know what it looks like.
Actually, now that I think about it, modern comics have a big problem with this. Fuckin' house style trash.
John Reed
DQ11 on PC is just so beautiful, how they took the classic look and kept the essence of it while adding the dimensionality. It has such a consistent and appealing aesthetic, and the localization has been done with care--all the punny monster names, etc.
Levi Barnes
Benjamin Hernandez
burn after burn!
Logan Allen
Hey OP. My teeth are driving me nuts.
Adrian Wood
Jaxson Parker
I know that feeling, I hope you get some relief
Charles Williams
... A goddamn Twister reference. Because of course.
Oh, it's still fuckhueg, naturally. Imagine the actual fires being lit in the streets if they tried to make the Buster Sword less ridiculous.
Also, apparently, the crossdressing scene is still happening, and I for one eagerly await Cloud obviously being into it. Let's be real here, that's the only way to do it nowadays.
Oliver Jones
Real men play with the Nail Bat
Cameron Fisher
Lucas Nelson
Sebastian James
just got here, whatd I miss
they should make an omnibus of this run
Benjamin Smith
DAD FIIIIIIIGHT!!
Charles Flores
they started restoring the series digitally for release, but then stopped.
The $$$ isn't there
Jacob Morales
I enjoy seeing people insult Grunge to his face. He deserves it.
Again, style over horsepower. The results speak for themselves every time. Metroid games will always look great because the series has firmly codified a solid aesthetic.
Robert Fisher
Robert Davis
Dominic Jones
Aiden Harris
Rich Johnston cooked up a related fake news article, this time about Stan Lee and Martin Goodman. He also earlier claimed that Pam Lifford hates imprints but the pop-up ones.
Also:
>those massive DC Kids/YA GN announcements after the sunset announcement of Zoom/Ink/Vertigo
>only High Level will remain to be published by DC; Astro City GNs still in production
Tyler Rivera
I would buy a copy
that’s funny that DC can’t capitalize off JSC’s art like every other company can or even collect Frank’s stuff when he’s their top toted talent
Jaxon Lewis
Zoom and Ink were kind of dumb names
Elijah Jackson
William Wood
James Campbell
Lynch BTFO
Ethan Carter
Cameron Wood
Superman Smashes the KKK sounds like fun. The tears it causes will be even better!
Oh just kiss already.
Justin Hernandez
DC Kids is gonna be look like DCK
Jonathan Gonzalez
Isaac Wood
Ryan James
when did Frank stop having fun art
Blake Jackson
>He also earlier claimed that Pam Lifford hates imprints but the pop-up ones.
but likes imprints? or double hates?
Landon Cruz
Parker Perez
Okay... NOW kiss!
The creepy faces have always been there, but at some point, they started being an extremely noticeable problem.
Anthony Long
James Russell
hot teens and hotter dads
Zachary Cooper
this is the book for DILFs, it's true
Jeremiah Lee
Image got Safe Sex, but also seem to have renamed it. The title is now
>SFSX (Safe Sex)
Blake Roberts
this was written for girls
Hudson Brooks
Depends on how into screwing you your dad is. Or how big a wingman he is.
Logan Powell
what else has moved? Second Coming went to AHOY!, I know
Carson Brooks
Samuel Rivera
holy shit
Ryder Moore
Blake Torres
thanks for reading back tomorrow
that ad: "Planetary is a new series with an interesting skew to it", lol
Jayden Cruz
>The Unmen.jpg
Xavier Hernandez
that series is fuckdd up
thanks OP, fun stuff
Chase Foster
Too many girl characters with big tits in bikinis for this not to have been aimed at boys to some extent.
Easton Gonzalez
Thanks for posting as always, Storyteller.
Turn-based combat or no, I might just have to go ahead and play FFVII original just to learn Tifa's character out of spite for these fake gamers.
... Wow, that was surprisingly bitter and depressing. Fuck.
Henry Wright
Zenescope's readership is mostly women
they want big titted fun fantasy stuff
Tyler Parker
Spider-Abrams is utterly unimpressive, especially as a countdown reveal.
Benjamin Cox
Well, you see, if the people complaining ever had a job, S&P is probably who fired them.
Luis Sanchez
>those massive DC Kids/YA GN announcements after the sunset announcement of Zoom/Ink/Vertigo
Two Zatanna books, two Swamp Thing books, and a Li'l Constantine one.
That latter one is literally a Watchmen Babies tier-joke.
I think I'll storytime the single issue "The Gift" for a canon tale of Constantine as a child one of these days after OP finishes
Cooper Miller
considering Constantine was in JLAction a kid's book doesn't actually seem that farfetched
Jackson Bailey
I regularly forget that Grunge is supposed to be Asian.
Ryder Martin
Fuck accurate translations. Give me the Woolsleyisms of my youth, down to the very last "Off Course!"
She'll never be Aerith to me.
Jackson Campbell
the original FFT is amazing. "Don't blame me, blame yourself, or God."
Elijah Lee
Sure
Lucas Foster
>She got a boost to her INT score, and I can't place when this happened.
When they switched writers and everything got more serious.
No room for an airheaded girly girl who seems to forget she has powers in the new story direction.
Andrew Roberts
Honestly, if I was a big shot writer I would have my kid forge their own career rather than acting as their crutch, builds better work ethic
Joe Hill went out of his way to hide the fact he's Stephen King's son (for as little as that lasted) so he could be his own author, and prove himself to critics and readers
Xavier Sanders
We've come a long way from "don't let John appear in any all-ages titles because we don't want kids reading Hellblazer"
Evan Davis
I didn't know about Nick Harkaway for quite a while, either.
Julian Davis
John is severely neutered as a character if he isn't allowed to swear.
Juan Morris
And the winner gets Caitlyn!
Hudson Powell
Fairchild's Mojo is SO BIG.
Carter Ward
I read through lile the entirety of Unmen without realizing it was a Swamp Thing spin off.
Nolan Edwards
TV Shows'll do a lot for marketability.
Andrew Foster
That has to do with Cronius not really being used since the OG Len Wein stuff.
And that Anton Arcane had been pretty much dealt with in the 1980s. He'd come back once or twice for an arc, but was pretty much done after Moore finished.
Joseph Jones
BENDis tweeted some new Legion designs in very low quality. Blok!!!! Black Star Boy! Sun Boy on fire! Mon El! There are also 2 ladies I don’t recognize. One looks like Karolina from Runaways and the other is in blue
Nolan Evans
also he was hacked for a while
