khumpleetist Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 tnx khumpleetist for the advice...yun din ang isip ko. musta na kayong lahat dito........sana di na tumaas ang presyo ng comics kc peso devaluation na naman .... No problem bro, because I'm also getting the series kaya yun ang ni-recommend ko plus the fact na budget conscious ako at 3 issues lang ata yung Battle For The Cowl although mas marami ang tie-ins preo hindi ko alam kung ilang issues yung World Of Krypton. Sana nga di na tumaas ang presyo ng comics, sa tingin ko naman sa 2nd half ng taon eh makakabawi na siguro ng konti ang ekonomiya. At nabanggit mo yung iba pang mga mini series eh kukuha ako nung Marvels (?) ng Marvel na parang 70th Anniversary special/series nila. Quote Link to comment
revi Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Sayang naman yung No Hero. Hindi ba nag-order ang CO dun sa issues #2 & 3? As for Battle For The Cowl eh yung main series lang ang kukunin ko saka yung Azrael tie-in. Yung The stand eh balita ko eh aabutin ng mga 30 issues daw pag natapos. Estimate lang yun pero limited series lang talaga siya kasi adaptation hindi katulad ng Dark Tower eh expansion talaga. All out support talaga ang Marvel sa Dark Tower series kay ang sarap kumpletuhin pero hanggang 2nd series lang talaga ako. Hindi ko din naman masyadong gusto yung concept ng No Hero eh.. Medyo sci-fi ang tema.. Kaso tama ka, sayang talaga din dahil naumpisahan ko na.. Nagkaroon ng issue #2 ang Odyssey, kaso na-over-look ko.. Yung issue #3, parang di ko na nakita sa lists.. Kaya di-nrop ko na din.. Having #0 and #1 makes my collection ok na din.. haha.. Sa Battle for the Cowl, I am not getting the Azrael tie-in coz I feel that the tie-ins in the Bats event are not really necessary to get the main story.. I could be wrong, so I will wait for the reviews.. Mukhang malabo na ako sa The Stand.. Kasi ipapalit ko yung Bad Dog ng Image dito.. Maganda ang reviews doon at para maiba naman ang mga binabasa at kinokolekta ko.. hindi ko alam kung ilang issues yung World Of Krypton. 12 issues, bro.. Sana nga di na tumaas ang presyo ng comics, sa tingin ko naman sa 2nd half ng taon eh makakabawi na siguro ng konti ang ekonomiya. At nabanggit mo yung iba pang mga mini series eh kukuha ako nung Marvels (?) ng Marvel na parang 70th Anniversary special/series nila. Kukuha ka pala nung mga yun, bro.. Pass siguro ako sa mga yun muna.. Although, they have great covers, ano? What I am getting is the New Mutants' first story arc sa Marvel.. Mukhang ayaw mo na sa XMen ah.. hahaha..

revi Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 For those who have not bought New Avengers #50, you are missing such a great issue.. The scene where Wolverine was asked who is the Wolverine for the Dark Avengers, he said, "Its my son.." Spiderman quickly quirped, "You had sex?" That alone made this issue a spectacular one, to say the least.. hahaha.. Quote Link to comment
mazinger Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 naubusan daw sila ng GOTHOM GAZETTE : BATMAN DEAD ? sa CO....kaya utang nila sakin...maganda kaya ?coz pag hindi i'll onli collect the 3 issue battle for the cowl ..... Quote Link to comment
khumpleetist Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 @revi Ah, ok na nga rin kasi may issue ka ng No Hero #0 at #1. Paborito ko kasi si Azrael kaya kukunin ko yung tie-in. Bad Dog? Ano tema nun? Ty nga pala dun sa pag-inform mo na 12 issues yung World Of Krypton. Hindi naman sa ayaw ko sa X-Men, di ko na kasi pwedeng dagdagan pulls ko kasi wala na kong budget saka sinundan ko lang naman yung Messiah War at Divided We Stand pero pinag-iisipan ko pa yung Messiah War. Bukas ko pa lang babasahin yung issue New Avengers #50 kasi nagkaubusan last week. Quote Link to comment
khumpleetist Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 hey, guys. xenxa, medyo busy and puyat me. [sigh]. i'll fix up myself again this weekend San ka na ba pumapasok? Pang gabi ka na din ba? naubusan daw sila ng GOTHOM GAZETTE : BATMAN DEAD ? sa CO....kaya utang nila sakin...maganda kaya ?coz pag hindi i'll onli collect the 3 issue battle for the cowl .....

I know that you like Azrael, bro.. :cool: Bad Dog is somewhat like Savage Dragon but with a meaner attitude.. Bad Dog is a werewolf who refuses to change back to human form.. Bounty hunting ito.. I have not read the first issue but it looks promising.. Quote Link to comment

Sir, sa Comic Quest po madami pa. try nyo po sa Megamall. Naked nga lang 'yung book. I bought one last night. I say the issue is not that great. It counts as a set-up but nothing biggie. Unless the ending (with Det. Bullock) is really that connected to the main event. I suggest collecting the main event but who knows, maybe DC will pull something off with the tie-ins (ala FC tie-ins. ARGGGH!!!). Quote Link to comment

The internet comic book circle is quite alarmed at Ms. Marvel's leaning position and Cap's eye direction. Hehe. Good issue. Mali nga lang 'yung drawing ni David Aja kay Iron Fist. 'di in-sync 'yung costume sa ibang pages. I blame the editor. Quote Link to comment
revi Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 Slow week for next week.. Buti naman.. Here are my pulls: CE Murphy's Take A Chance #2Invincible Iron Man #11Patricia Briggs, Mercy Thompson Homecoming #2 Batman: Battle for the Cowl #1 I am thinking of getting the Variant for Battle for the Cowl.. Mura lang naman sa Php500.. But I am having second thoughts.. BTW, I am reading the Watchmen page by page now, before I watch the movie.. :thumbsupsmiley: Quote Link to comment
NeoXorn Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Sirs, I advice reading Watchmen at least twice before watching the movie. I've read it already three times -meron pa rin mga subtleties na nakatago sa small details ng art ni Mr. Gibbons. Real good read. 23 years old na, sharp pa rin 'yung dialogue. Tsaka madami daw tinanggal at binago sa movie, eh. Battle for the Cowl is already on my pull-list na din. Ang alam ko sa Comic Quest, Php570 lang reserved na 'yung buong series tapos naka-bag & board na daw na imported. May nagbabasa pa sa inyo ng Spawn? Bumili kasi ako ulit nun, eh gawa ni Whilce Portacio. Quote Link to comment
Larry Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Any of you guys seen Watchmen yet? I just want to get some thoughts from comic geeks who've seen it Quote Link to comment
NeoXorn Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 (edited) Any of you guys seen Watchmen yet? I just want to get some thoughts from comic geeks who've seen it I just saw Watchmen today. My thoughts? Hurm... I'll give wee bit opinion 'coz I know a lot you guys are busy to see it. For now anyways. I don't want to be a spoiler. I'll have to say that I'm not 100% pleased. Make no mistake in my words -I'm happy that Mr. Snyder got to direct it. It was originally passed by Zack but the studio (Warner) said that they will continue doing it anyway if Zack won't do it. Mr. Snyder being familiar with the source material, was not that eager to do it: He is very concerned on how to adapt a 12-issue series in to a 2 to 2+ hours of cinema. It was said that Watchmen was "unfilmable"but Zack rose up to the challenge. I must say that it was better that Zack made the project. Imagine if another director try to make it. I can't think of anyone (Spielberg excluding) that could handle it. Zack was very concerned about Watchmen. He would rather do it himself than see other directors take a stab (pun intended) at it. Yes. without giving any spoilers, there are MAJOR (AS IN!!!) changes to it just like mentioned in many movie rumor and comic book sites but Mr. Snyder, Mr. Tse and Mr. Hayter (I don't know which one of them made the changes, so I'll name all 3 of them. I have downloaded the initial script written by Mr. Hayter but I have yet the time to read it so I don't know who really initiated the changes) have the best interest at heart and mind, obviously. but in my humble opinion, it backfired a bit. It was a wee bit dumbed down and sped-up like a horny rabbit. To make it short, if you have no interest in reading the original work or haven't read it but would like to see the movie, its fine (the movie) by all means. If you've read the original work then there is no substitute to it. Love it or hate it, Mr Snyder deserved praises for being able to beat the challenge of the "Watchmen is 'unfilmable'" mindset. I'll reserve my final judgement until I've seen the 3+ hour unrated director's cut. Edited March 9, 2009 by NeoXorn Quote Link to comment
revi Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 ^ Although I haven’t watched the film yet, if Neoxorn’s review is taken into perspective, it would be understandable as to why Moore never wanted to be part of the film’s creation.. As weird as Moore is, he does not want to alter anything in his creations. Still, I really can’t believe that he gave all rights to Dave Gibbons.. I suppose money’s just s@%t for Moore..

Larry Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Moore never wanted to be part of the film’s creation.. moore never wants any of his works to be adapted to film. he's such a pompous ass. Quote Link to comment
