    If hellsing taught me anything its that you do not fuck with Dracula.

    The Hellsing family fucked with Dracula and they got him as a servant.

    Everyone else though...

    It's mostly Nazis and Catholics that have to worry.
    Protestants are pretty safe.
    why isn't Chris Hastings writing Deadpool all the time

    Because he's too busy being awesome at Dr. McNinja.

    A+X has been a pretty fantastic series so far.

    Just fun done in one team-ups with mostly rad creative teams.

    Wh...who uses payphones anymore?

    Are you telling me that Jubilee doesn't have a cellphone?

  • Centipede DamascusCentipede Damascus Ho! Ho! Ho! Drink Coke!Registered User regular
    I'm saying maybe she lost or ditched her cell phone for some reason.

    People in Oregon.

    Every time I see a telephone booth I want to stop and take a photo. It's like seeing, well, like seeing a walk-in payphone booth in 2013.

    People who need their story's antagonist to conviently know where the protagonist is going.

    Also, payphones do not have a redail button, fucker.
    I was excited for this book... lazy writing like that makes it less so. I'll still pick it up and see if it can redeem itself.

    Goddamn. Anti, that's the kind of shit I've wanted to see happen in comics for over a decade. Clearly I've been looking in the wrong place. I don't...I don't suppose you could give me a hint as to where I could start to catch up on the social upheaval I'm seeing? I feel like I'm seeing the middle of something amazing.

    You'll want to read The Death of Optimus Prime first to know how things start, maybe read the actual issue or wiki synopsis for More Than Meets the Eye #1 just so you know what happens RIGHT before Robots in Disguise #1, then read the rest of RID.
    There's a 17 issue mega arc, including the Robots in Disguise annual, but what led to the events in that preview is the events of 11-15, which take place in a single day.

    MTMTE is a sitcom/drama/action comic with fantastic character interaction and only minor ties to Robots in Disguise's political drama/thriller.
    I'll be the first to admit that there's some awkward pacing in RID, but I personally prefer MTMTE to RID, and I also know there's plenty of people who prefer RID to MTMTE.

    Both comics are also very new reader friendly, there are references to older comics in the IDW canon but it's either explained or left as something for longtime readers to go "heh, I get it."

    If you're into trades, you can just nab the More than Meets the Eye and Robots in Disguise trades. They're up to volume 3's with volume 4's in a few months.

    That reminds me, the material printed in Transformers: Prelude isn't going to be printed in any other TPB, right?

  • AntimatterAntimatter Devo Was Right Gates of SteelRegistered User regular
    yeah, those six spotlights are going to be collected in prelude and in prelude only, as far as i know.

  • Undead ScottsmanUndead Scottsman Cybertronian Paranormal Eliminator Registered User regular
    Onto the preorder list, then!

    Maybe his super power is creating redial buttons for pay phones.

    Way to cuss the poor guy out for using his only power for probably the first/last time.

    I love the smell concept layout

    also Kate smells like love! So much character information revealed from a Dog's perspective!

  • Centipede DamascusCentipede Damascus Ho! Ho! Ho! Drink Coke!Registered User regular
    also what's neat is that the argument Clint and Kate are having is the argument we saw them have in #10, just from Pizza Dog's perspective.

    One small thing that I like about that Avengers preview is how the first speech bubble, before you see who's speaking, has green text. At first, I thought "I wonder why that's green?"

    And then I was like, "Oh. Nice."
