Happy 2023, everyone! :toot:



What are your new year's comic book reading resolutions? I've been meaning to get around to get into the IDW Transformers series for a while, and I think I'm finally going to bite the bullet this year. I want to see those big robots smash and crash into each other.

I bought the Akira box set last year and it’s just been shelf porn. I need to read it this year. I also want to get back to more regular reading of the marvel reading order. It would be cool to reach the 80s at some point.

The Akira box set is really nice. Even so, I will always be jealous of some European countries (I think Germany and Italy) that got fully coloured box sets. I guess Kodansha either couldn't or didn't want to get the rights to the EC coloured pages. It's a shame, but the beautiful artwork still speaks for itself even without colours.

I want to see someone take the oath on the Spider-Man/Obama crossover comic.

Any highlight runs from DC/Marvel from the past year?

Moon Knight and X-Men: Red were my favourite Marvel comics last year. The X-Men comics are really good in general at the moment.

Kinda glad this hasn't gone on sale yet as I get forwarded drama over this book's translation and maybe false advertising?? There were deleted tweets from Titan Comics using what might be fansub images.

:laffo: This is wild. You'd think if there were fan translations out there they would at least use them as a reference point to clean up their shoddy translation, but I guess not!

Also, you know, not that Warren Ellis.

Lots of people in this thread have never listened to Carnage and it shows. :nono:

Watching Echo and I think to myself "It's cool that a newer Daredevil character has her own series! I remember her first appearance!"

I look it up....the "new" character is almost 25 years old.

I am an old gently caress.

Sorry gramps, characters are only "new" if they're from the 2000s. This will continue to be true next year, when they are also 25 years old. :cheers:

The annual Comics Beat analysis of graphic novel sales for 2023 has been posted.

The main takeaways: goddamn, Dav Pilkey makes money.

Glad to hear They Called Us Enemy is still selling well. It's an incredible read.
