So, since it's that time of year, I figured we could have a 'post your presents' thread.
Yeah, so I was inspired by the one in SE++, but since I post here more often anyway, I'd rather see the stuff that fellow Graphic Violence-ers are recieving.
I'll wait for other people to post before I put up my list, at the risk of this just becoming a "Skullo's stuff sucks" thread, or a locked thread with just me saying "Oooh lookies!"
Happy Holidays!

Hmm
I've always seen Santa as one of the few people that not even Darkseid could touch. Like, his Omega Effect would turn to puppies.
Santa is actually the only surviving Old god.
[spoiler:85c32309b5] He gave back Flycatcher his memories of what happened to his family.[/spoiler:85c32309b5]
From Left to Right: Absolute Kingdom Come, Absolute New Frontier, Superman Returns, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Clerks II, Thank You for Smoking, A Scanner Darkly, Pirates of the Carribean II, Tranformers The Movie, The Goverment Manual for New Superheroes, How to Survive a Robot Uprising, How to be a Villain, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster and World War Z. There is more to come.
Update: Just watched A Scanner Darkly, Looked amazing, but what the fuck did I just watch? Wierd as hell in the best way possible.
you can just send these my way
Not liking space ships and samurais, indeed.
my magic dinosaurs will kick the shit out of your technosamurais
Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals.
I like this picture, because you can look at it two different ways.
"Wow, Superman is bringing us a tree!" or..
"Did that dick just take our tree?"

[spoiler:bb49dc802c] He remembered what happened while he was a frog, Santa just let him see his wife one more time and get turned back into a human. Santa also told him to stop being a pussy because people will be countin on him soon. [/spoiler:bb49dc802c]

I just bought 3 Shirts with some Xmas Cash. They could be the most awesome shirts I own:
Marvel Encyclopedia
Ultimate Avengers 1 and 2 DVD's
$50 gift card to my comic shop
Fearless DVD
Spiderman shirt - essentially the top half of his symbiote suit
Assortment of spiderman accessories (toothbrush/stickers/tattoos, etc)
Then of course came the standard christmas sweater my mom gets me every year
Marvel Encyclopedia
300 (I got 2 copies of it)
Global Frequency Volume 1 and 2
A Box
Some Bags
Clerks (the trade paperback)
Clerks 1 DVD
Clerks 2 DVD
A Wacom Tablet
A Wireless Mouse
$75 in American Express Giftcards
Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam (Wii)
Splinter Cell Double Agent (Wii)
and I just ordered Bleach DS: Souten ni Kakeru Unmei
t Romero: Spider-man.
"Luke Cage's Sweet Christmas" is an acceptable varient.
As for me, I didn't get any comic book related gifts. Still waiting for gifts to show up from my Secret Spidey and one of my friends for that. I did manage to snag a DS Lite and some games for it (New Super Mario Bros. and Tetris DS), along with a few smaller gifts and a good deal of chocolate.
Also plenty of gift cards for books, which I will either use to procure Absolute Watchmen of the Complete Calvin and Hobbes.
Daredevil Hardcovers 3-6.
Avengers Assemble Hardcovers 1-3.
Nextwave HC 1.
Absolute New Frontier.
Runaways HC 2.
Hellblazer 1.
Swamp Thing 1.
JLA 4.
Superman: Red Son.
The Sentry Reborn (which was damaged under the tree. It leaked all over the book, so it has severe water damage. It's really depressing!)
A 1 gig Flash drive.
Money from relatives to continue scamming Buy.com, but I'm running out of things to buy...
Final Fantasy XII.
A $25 gift card to Barnes & Noble that is going to go toward trades.
And that's about it.
Oh. Underwear...
And just yesterday I ordered the first DD hardcover. The second edition one that has more issues and stuff (and hopefully doesn't have a Ben Affleck quote on the back). I don't really love the Kevin Smith issues, but the completist in me demands it.
I'm going to be reading for a while.
Ed: I also had a dream about Tim Drake being killed by poachers in Africa, so I guess that counts, too.
...also, another dream about a better Daredevil movie. This is what I get for reading six issues of DD before bed.
Man it is taking so much willpower to not buy that thing.
I don't rally care for the comics it contains, but having 2-6 on my shelf without 1 feels kinda weird.
