      Just so you know the strange hooded lady from Flashpoint #5 has shown up in every #1 this week. Some are speculating that this could be a hint/precursor to some major event.

      My reaction: WHY???!!!!

        .....seriously? COME ON DC. Hopefully its only a case like marvel where she's a watcher.

        Though with Morrison's run on Batman continuing sometime next year i won't be surprised if this is all a effing ploy for another stupid DC event.

        anyway, still waiting on Catwoman #1 to come out, one of the last ones i'm looking to get.

          Where's the download button at? I might be missing it but it seems all I can do is click on the name then read it online. I just moved it to full screen then hit the prtscn button so it's no big but that'd be more convient to just dl it.

              I don't think you can download them to your computer, that would make it easier to pirate I assume. I download them with my phone and tablet through the DC Comics app.

                Dunno about the rest of the week but I'm pretty sure that lady showed up again in Sucide Squad during Deadshot's section. Dig the new Harley,got a sort of Crow thing going on with the facepaint. I had no idea who King Shark was before or Amanda Waller so I'm not in on the fuss about them.

                I was also going to say (after last week) these seemed shorter. This week I realized they just feel that way because there's 2 pages for 1 with the digital versions.

                  Amanda Waller being thin=FAIL

                  C'mon man Amanda Waller's supposed to be a fat brickload!

                  Spoiler


                  Had to put that in spoilers because it's a big image.

                  I'm not a big fan of the goth Harley Quinn but I suppose i'll get used to it. She seemed a lot more crazy too which is a good thing IMO.

                  I like the new setup of Superboy though in that book.

                    Re: Comic Book Fans....

                    Been years since I've read but the DC reboot has me itching a little. What's the best/cheapest way to pick them up these days? Or where can you go to get a deal on subsciptions? I'm not sure i know what the average cover price is these days, is it $3.99?

                    Thanks

                      yeah everything is about 3.99 these days, and i think DC/Marvel are both doing digital download/reading options going forward. I'm not sure as i still have a long standing comic shop a few miles away so i end up having physical copies of most all my comics.

                        Thanks. Do any of you guys use Magazines.com to get them? If so how the timelyness, shippip ect. They offer 12 issues for $27 on their website. Looks like the best price online.

                          I have the new comics shipped directly to my house from DC and Marvel. Rest I get from Amazon. I have digital as well but prefer the physical copies.

                            The digital ones are $3 at launch and supposed to drop to $2 after a month,at least with DC. I just started again too so don't know. There's some free ones around too plus the sneak peeks.

                              $2 will be nice. I've been a little irritated that they have been $3 each this month and that has kept me from buying too many. Otherwise I would have tried out Green Arrow and Batman/Robin.

                              The ones I have purchased and my scores are:
                              JLA - B+
                              Action - A
                              Detective - A
                              Superboy - B
                              Legion Lost - C
                              Green Lantern - B+
                              Grifter - C

                                Read Action Comics #1 was really disappointed when I saw the first look of the blue jeans and T shirt Superman but this was a great story I can't wait for #2. Might even dress up like this Superman for Halloween.
