The big issue is there's a fuckload to play with in the costuming... If you find the styles. And some of them led you down some miserable loving grinds.

Yeah, and they're not account wide.

Also apparently it's impossible to make a name these days. Not only are they all taken by now but the creator has bugs and can deny even available names to you.

I think they were discussing making styles account-wide when I last popped in. I have to hand them this: after the lead changed, they really started getting pro-player in most decisions.

Hell, I almost started playing again at that point but there was an entire new skill system and I never felt like learning from square one to revive Billy Jeans.

It's awful, but for any consolation, the article said he'd just been working there for a few months and called it 'decorated' which doesn't sound like it housed his collection.

Yea, thankfully it sounds like Bleedingcool was being Bleedingcool and he 'only' lost what he decorated the hanger with. Obviously still very sad because basically anything done by Uderzo getting torched sucks, but it seems his actual collection is safe.

I have several of the Justice League Europes he co-wrote with Keith Giffen bound into two of my hardcovers, many of which are signed by Giffen, Bart Sears, and the late Marshall Rogers (but not Jones).

So as it turns out, I just bought the jupiter's legacy/circle trades, and I already had them. How would I go about trading them with another goon? Put feelers out here or post in SA mart and cross post in one of these threads?

I kid. But seriously, gently caress Jones. I had to unfriend a few "comic bros" on Facebook because they were defending him on the merits of his past works.

I think it's okay to enjoy the works of a detestable person.

It's not okay to argue that someone can't be detestable because you enjoy their works.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

That's nice and all but I, and I assume Gros, have the first two collections on our shelves and want the rest that way. At least Vertigo books seem to make it out, although I half expect the Unwritten deluxes to stop after a couple.
