yeah I got the All New Avengers FCBD, the Secret Wars one and the Convergence one.
the All New Avengers one was a pile of crap (I guess they're just ignoring that Radioactive Man is a good guy now and not the kind of guy who'd kill innocent people to begin with, though Waid does write a good Kamala Khan), the Convergence one was even dumber (I didn't think it was possible for me to hate the Superman books even more, the Batman stuff seems like a publicity stunt) but I did enjoy the Secret Wars one, if only for the intentionally ridiculous Attack on Titan crossover.

My comic shops don't take part in FCBD, bummer.
Oh well I'll DL any DC ones as places like EBay are charging out the arse for em.

I didn't feel like standing in line for hours, so I found the books I wanted on eBay for what I would have paid for gas to get to the comic shop. Good deal!

We only got three; I picked up Avengers, Secret Wars, Convergence. They all pretty well sucked. But while I was there I bought Saga vol 3 and Fables volume 21. The shop was having a 25% off sale, so I got both trades for twenty five bucks. So it was worth the trip.

Just finished reading the first issue of Secret Wars. Pretty good. Some serious high drama going on in this book with a real "this is really the f***ing end of everything" feel. Real intrested to see where this goes and how it ends. The artwork was top notch as well.

New issue of Nailbiter out today.
Book is just too perfect, man. A lot of great random references and the writer has one of the most creative horror-minded brains I can think of.
"Clown Car Killer" - that's a thing in this issue.

I usually get my comics from Comixology, but I can't find the FCBD stuff from this year. I'm looking for Savage Dragon Legacy and TMNT Prelude To Vengeance. Anyone know where I can download these.
Not trying to break forum rules or steal anything, this is free stuff I just can't find it.

Those were my favorite comics as a kid, and it's neat that I can check in on that version of Supes "now" in his life. Can anyone tell me if they are worth checking out?

Yeah, the tie-ins have a nice nostalgic tingle to them as they're from tried and tested writers. I quite liked the Nightwing/Oracle and Harely Quinn ones this week. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}Great to see the Dick and Babs I grew up with finally get married . Is that really a spoiler when it's on the cover of the book

(I guess they're just ignoring that Radioactive Man is a good guy now and not the kind of guy who'd kill innocent people to begin with He reverted back to being Random Villain #4723 the minute he left the Tbolts book, has had a couple of appearances as such since then. For canon persons, it's assumed his radiation levels drove him mad again.

Semi-Serious question.
Wanting to get a few comics, but no stores local (one about 70 miles away, but can't drive there weekly). So going the subscription route.
However what if anything is all this marvel stuff going to do to series that are going on?
I'm looking at GotG, Hawkey and already went with Infinity Gauntlet.
