    Yes, I read the Dresden novels. I have them all, I've read them all multiple times, some of my favorite books for when I just want something fun and not have to put a ton of thought in
    The comic is quality. It's a prequel story, set before Storm Front
    Butcher has said that he plans to use the comics to fill in the gaps, and flesh out the little things that were mentioned in passing in the books

    Okay seriously between hearing about this, the Layla one-shot, the return of Spider-Man <3's Mary Jane and a Fraction written Beta Ray Bill showing up in Thor this might just be the best comic news week ever.

    Ireland is a bit behind in publishing the novels, but I've just finished White Knight, the latest one available here. I'd read the first issue of the comic, but I wasn't 100% sure where it fitted in with the novels.

    Bale which arc is Forever?
    I have a general idea of what's happened between where I started reading and where the Newsarama shit is (page a day goddammit), but I need to know what kind of greatness I'm in for

    EDIT: Yeah White Knight was the second to last book to be released in the States, Small Favor came out this April.
    If you took most of the subplots of all of the other books, and put them together, you'd get Small Favor

    Yeah I just checked Wiki, and it's one of the things I read about when I first heard of Powers
    For some reason, I got Forever confused with Secret Identity

    Done
    I thought so, I just wanted to make sure. My shop has a ton of back issues of Powers, which amuses me, since they didn't even carry it until shortly after I asked them about getting it
    EDIT: Oh hey I just realized. Have we heard when the Powers Encyclopedia is coming out?

    Incredible Hercules started immediately after the WWH tie-in issues of Incredible Hulk. Those issues kind of lead into Herc, so it's probably a good idea to pick that up as well.

    The End League's been pretty fun so far. It's about a post-apocalyptic world where most of the world's population has gained superpowers, with the majority deciding to use them for their own ends. So there's all these quasi-supervillain warlords that have carved out their own private empires, with only a small group of superheroes still surviving to oppose them. It's written by Rick Remender (Fear Agent, All New Atom) so it's shaping up to be pretty good.

    This one will, since it's set before the first book, and therefore doesn't make any references to what happens in the books
    But future minis probably won't, since they'll more than likely be more tied to the events of whichever book they're set during/after/whathaveyou

    A reprint of #1 with some bonus art and some extra bits of backmatter. All the extra info is on the wiki anyway. Not really worth buying if you're already reading Doktor Sleepless, unless you really love the new art. It is pretty.
