    Inspired by a thread on SuperheroHype this is a thread for us comic lovers to discuss new stuff that you're looking to get and also show the new stuff you've just gotten, be it single issues, long sought after back issues, figurines even free lego from The Sun :P.

    This week I've picked up

    Also made it to the Paolo Rivera signing in FP and managed to get my books signed and a free sketch

    Hmm, now that you mention it the "what are you reading" thread is getting a bit long in the tooth (I think it was started around the same time I joined boards!). Let's keep this going as a new one and I'll close off the old thread with a link to this later on.

    I got some stuff I bought a while back earlier this week, including a sketched-in copy of The Mire by Becky Cloonan (yay!) and my copy of Stray Lines from the magnificent Paddy Lynch & co. Haven't had time to read them yet but looking forward to doing so.

    Cool stuff :D

    Anyone pick up the new Thor series as part of Marvel NOW? It was amazing. I really love where they're going with this

    Ah, I was looking for somewhere I could mention this. I'm a few weeks behind with my comics, so was reading the latest Superman. Was hilarious when
    He was knocked all the way to Ireland, and when he was told where he was he replied "I'm in Europe?". Why didn't he just pull down a map and point out to all the readers where Ireland and Europe were in relation to America, Team America style?
    But the best part was that he landed on an oil field in Ireland. I know I'm not the most up to date on real world happenings, but when did we get oil fields? :) Then he goes and uses his heat vision to light the oil. Maybe that's the reason we don't have oil.

    I know comics aren't real, but surely a wee bit of research could go a long way.

    The Batman series seems to be getting some good reviews so far, have been looking out for it myself but can only see the Hardback version online. Is Marvel Now just Marvel's version of the New 52?

    well no as apparently new 52 is a reboot whereas marvel now isnt. The stories are just progressing on from AvX with new creative teams on the books. A lor of them have been great so far... esp Thor and Uncanny Avengers

    People i know who've bought say they prefer the marvel now except fr some of them double shipping. I camt honestly pick seeing as i havent tried New 52
