I am still waiting patiently for my World War Hulk where I want to see Hulk battle Blackbolt.

Why is the TPB taking so long?!!? tongue.gif

Not too sure about Secret Invasion but Illuminati is the reason why there is a World War Hulk tongue.gif

Dr Strange, Namor, Black Bolt, Black Panther and Mr Fantastic kicked Hulk into space. tongue.gif Oops missed out Prof X.

Now he is back for revenge.

Recently I saw the movie length of Ultimate Avengers on Cinemax. It was quite good. It had Black Widow, Thor, Capt A, Iron Man, Ant-Man, The Wasp and The Hulk too. Second series had the Black Panther.

Ahh thats the animated series. I have both the DVDs and its quite hillarious as they have a cantonese voice option biggrin.gif

Well, TPBs are not exactly for the patient people! We have to wait until the damn series is over. tongue.gif

Comics even without downloads are slowly dying, because they are churning out crap stories. You feel cheated paying top dollars to find out that the storyline is indeed crap.

Licensed translated (BM) copies helped manga to grow. And the boom of the Japanese culture.

The English copies are still expensive to me, so I don't know. Right now, I still read comics, just that I get them through TPBs and not single issues anymore.

I rather read the series entirely in one sitting rather than wait week by week. Same goes to my TV series tongue.gif

Picked up Hellboy Library Volume 1. Mignola's art looks great blown up, you should definately get a copy if you're a fan of his.

Kinokuniya. It retails for RM 170, but thanks to a 25% off coupon from The Star, I got it for RM 130. thumbup.gif

I've heard good things about JLI but I'm holding out for a paperback. I hate these premiere hardcovers Marvel & DC are putting out.

Lol well, it was HC for RM85 and I got RM35 off from the shop due to their stamp collecting system. So not too bad for me smile.gif

Ahhh Kino. That is a bit the far for me. Maybe I can go Borders and look for it.

Hey Guys,
I'm a newbie to this thread. I used to collect almost everything under the sun. But I always have a soft spot for The Avengers & Uncanny X-men. I have a good run of Uncanny from #100 til almost the current issue. Anyway, just like everyone else, I'm an avid fan of Alex Ross. After Marvel, he did Kingdom Come. I was mesmerized!! Bought the original issues. Bought the Kingdom Come posters. Bought the hardcover (signed by Alex Ross). Bought the Kingdom Come trading cards incl. the signed card. Heck, I even bought the Superman statue that was purportedly sculpted by Alex Ross. But gone are those days. I still treasured all of his work though. Today, I've succumbed to the high exchange rate. Collecting comics is a declining hobby. The new generations are interested in something else. Sigh....


Added on June 25, 2008, 12:59 pmAttached are some of Alex Ross stuffs that I have. The hardcovers are someplace else, so are the trading cards. The framed Batman & Supes litho are signed by Alex Ross. Enjoy...

You should really get Justice then. smile.gif

Hey,
I have the original issues of Justice. Saw the hardcover when I went to Mid Valley the other day. The cover looks great!! But I saw 2 variations of cover. Is there more than one cover for this hardcover edition? Is it just variations or is the content different too?
*
There should be 3 different covers because the HC has 3 volumes smile.gif Dont think there is a variant.

Went to Singapore over the weekend and bought a bunch of stuff. All of it are available here but what the heck, i was already there tongue.gif

Killing Joke, Wanted, The Dark Knight Returns and Runaway: Dead End Kids. All I can say is.. 4 very worthwhile purchases although I wasn't too excited about Frank Miller's art.

Noooo, the ultimate universe is nice! sad.gif

Well, the FF was enjoyable. Ultimates was good, didn't really get into Spidey. X-Men was alright.

Just got into the Marvel Zombies craze. Still wondering why it is so acclaimed tongue.gif
