WHY THE FUCK AREN'T YOU READING FIRESTORM?!!

Bloods End

Goddammit you guys. Manhunter is being rescued yet again, but no announcement of a reprieve for Firestorm, one of my favorite books on the shelf.

Whats wrong with you? Do you not like Nuclear heroes? Do you not enjoy fun, quippy heroes with dysfunctional families? Do you just hate the journey of someone who goes from idiot with fire powers to complete fucking badass?

Look at Dwayne McDuffie's opening issue on the (final?) arc of Firestorm.

Hey, that's a good idea, so I guess I will now?

Amazon says the first trade comes out at the end of this month too.

Bloods, I love Firestorm, I actually cried when Ronnie died.

I have the whole run since Jason took over, and it is hells of awesome.

I like it alot due to the fact that is is very remanisent of Captain Marvel when it first started with Genis and Rick Jones.

God I miss Captain Marvel(Genis);

Damn you Thunderbolts there must have been another way, WHY ZEMO WHY!!!

My dad actually had the 1st edition of Firestorm. Sadly when you have three young boys pretty much everything in your house will at some point be destroyed.

Firefuckingstorm#1. *sigh*

Because I can't afford it

You only need one kidney and a part of your liver, Keith.

Well, I just plain don't like black people.

*laugh track*

Seriously though, I've actually heard the series got awesome with Stuart Moore and Jamal Igle, so I've been slowly buying up back issues of the series as I can afford them, since DC's habit of not releasing a goddamn trade for anything but their top sellers, and even then only collecting whatever they feel like, in whatever order they wish, is goddamn annoying.

You can get #1-22 for a little less than 50 bucks at mycomicshop.com, which is still cheaper and quicker than waiting for trades, assuming they stick with around 5 issues per trade at $14.99.

Hmmm...it does star a black guy, so I guess I should get up on this. I need to get some extra moneys though, because I really can't afford more back issues right now.

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]When a fan thanked Didio for bring back Manhunter, he revealed that uncanceling Manhunter was Bob Wayne’s idea. He saw the response and thinks he can make this work with the periodicals and the trades. They both took that to Paul Levitz and got a yes. They plan on getting it some extra attention by canceling it every 5-6 months (with the extra bonus of it driving Andreyko nuts). Trades are selling well. They put her in Birds of Prey to give it more exposure, as well.

I don't fully grasp his powers. His appearance and name makes you think he's a generic fire shooter, but apparently he can pretty much make anything into anything? That is hells of powerful.

Garlic Bread

Yeah, he's like Atom Eve. He can also shoot fireblasts or something

They put McDuffie on this book 5 issues too late.

I'm reading his issues.
