Guy Goodbody posted:I read the first volume of Snotgirl, and really liked it. It's kinda like that manga No Matter How I Look at It, It's You Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular!, in that the main character is genuinely kind of a lovely person and a gently caress up, and most of her problems are of her own creation, but you still end up rooting for her at least a little. And the mystery is really interesting too. I didn't get passed the second issue because of all the things you said

Apparently Diamond upgraded their packing facility and retailers were shocked! Yes, I clicked a clickbaity title, but Comics Beat is generally pretty solid. http://www.comicsbeat.com/youll-gasp-when-you-see-the-film-that-left-comics-retailers-speechless/

I'm still seeing people all over social media talk about "the failure of the leftist ideology" whenever someone brings up Marvel's sales.

In other possibly bad things news I managed to order Zero Hour: Crisis in Time by mistake (I meant to order the EC Library Zero Hour) and didn't realize it until I opened my IST box. Aside from apparently getting too old to notice these kinds of mistakes, what do I need to know before I read this? Is it good? Bad? Steeped in continuity? Will I be totally lost/bored/angry?

It's worth experiencing an event so transparently designed to shift around continuity over telling a story.

I've talked a bunch here and there about Chikara the indie wrestling promotion. They like to do lots of comic-related stuff like making their DVD covers into comic cover homages, their Royal Rumble is called the Infinite Gauntlet, they had a guy with a frog Thor gimmick, last year's big story involved a psychic in a wheelchair with a team of wrestlers called the HeXed Men and so on. They even just did a 52/One Year Later thing where they skipped ahead a year in continuity and gradually released shows from a secret season on their streaming site. Anyway, the last show ended with an unstoppable heel named Merlok beating the hell out of a tag team's manager/mascot Jawsolyn (a woman in an adorable hammerhead shark Halloween costume). After he slammed her into the wall and threw her through a table, the show ended with the woman being tossed into a refrigerator and Merlok slamming the door shut. They did literal fridging in a wrestling show. I shouldn't be laughing, but I am.
