So I usually like Tynion's work, I've read quite a few and was really excited about the Dept. of Truth, so I got the first HC and was super disappointed. I loved the art and the concept, but the whole shtick felt like a guy being brought around and told stuff, with very little happening and progression, I went as far as also buying the 3 following volumes because I had faith in the project, but ended up finding it very "meh"

So, the first W0rldtr33 Hardcover is coming out. With how I've felt about the Department of Truth would you recommend it to me?

(for even more context, I've loved SiKTC by him, also The Deviant, thought Invisible man was good, and Wynd too, first volume of Exquisite Corpse too. I also read a ton more authors in pretty much every genre, horror, sci fi, documentary, crime, fantasy, I have very broad taste)

Thanks

Sorry for the low quality camera lol

Tim Sale was a good dude, he had tons of stories for the Marie Severin Appreciation Group I run with Linda Fite on Facebook until his unfortunate passing

Wanting to find out from people who have read this series what their own personal thoughts are on it.

Was doing a 2nd hand shop run the other day and came across 1-4 of the 5 issues so decided to pick it up.

Will likely be some time before I read them so figured Id check any thoughts and if recommended id keep an eye out for #5 moving forward.

Cheers

I did a reread of the first volume in the last few days then I followed it up with the second one tonight... man this series is just brilliant. In my opinion, issues 4, 5 and 6 are some of the most powerful comics I've ever read. I think the first volume is a bit stronger overall, but my god this series is amazing. It's poignant, sad, weird, hopeful, funny, depressing, clever, on the nose, all at the same time, and yet it works perfectly. I was slightly confused by the ending of issue #9 however (if people could share what they thought of it I'd appreciate it).

Deniz Camp firing on all cylinders right now (Absolute Martian Manhunter was phenomenal and I'm enjoying Bleeding Hearts a lot, too). Cannot wait for Shadow of the Bat !

Hi everyone,

Wanted to see if anyone had recommendations similar to Terminal? I know 90's X-Men is stated as part of its influence, but I personally don't like to read many older comics and feel that a lot of X-Men's Mutant debacles are outdated or tasteless.

Don't know if any comics like that does exist, but similar recommendations in any way are still appreciated!

Hey guys,

I recently picked up Precious Metal and I've read that it is stand alone and can be read before Little Bird.

HOWEVER, I am a few pages in and I can't help but think that there is probably some important world building that happens in Little Bird and that if I read it first, Precious Metal will be so much more exciting/rewarding.

Is my instinct correct? Should I read Little Bird first?

Epting is a local and occasionally pops out to mingle with the people. Glad I made it in time today to chop it up with him for a sec!

These were really fun for me to hunt and collect. When Invincible Month came this year, it was such a dopamine rush every Wednesday. Haha. I love looking at these covers. Very happy to own these.

I included Invincible Month variants, Invincible Presents, Science Dog, and the Scriptbook/Handbook.

I think I enjoyed Guarding the Globe more than Invincible Universe. Both are really fun and enjoyable, there's not too much crazy stuff that happens but not to say nothing crazy happens. Not like Invincible or Astounding Wolfman.

Capes was ok in general. I have the tpb and it took longer to read than I care to admit. I have all the current Capes issues but haven't started reading the revamp version yet.

I had to repost since my previous post was removed.

i’ve read all 3 of the one shots and almost all of the 12 series specials and i’m searching for panels that actually talk about brit’s background story. the wiki says he and his mother were involved in a car crash that killed brit’s mom and to prevent himself from ever losing a loved one again brit’s dad made the serum that turned brit invincible. in issue 12 his brother talks about how he got a different serum from their dad then brit but im yet to find anything about this crash story. is it something kirkman said outside of a comic or is it actually in a panel somewhere i cant find ? any help is greatly appreciated

I consider Saga to be the best comic I've ever read, definitely the best original comic and most creative visually.

It took me a little longer to finish book 4 than their previous works but I finished it last night.

It doesn't have the propulsion of the first half, and the destruction of the rocketship and as well Marko's absence does make it quite sad. It is realistic though, in an emotional sense in that early adolescence is when a person starts feeling friction and disappointment in life and hindrance to their ambitions becomes clearer.

This is around when most comics have a slump and transition to different artists. The fact that the original creative pair is still doing it all is impressive.

I find the hard rule against resurrections to be one that I greatly respect because too many comics allow for resurrections and that infamously cheapens the stakes. That Vaughn makes a feint there is interesting writing.

I think that the writing for the transgender character is quite good and it captures a lot of nuance. I also like how the writing does not rely on cold vengeance which I am sick and tired of seeing all the time but actually focuses on forgiveness and moral change and moral regret.

There are some things I don't quite understand. Why did the robot kingdom flip allegiances so suddenly. Why did Gwen's wife have to put a spell on the lying cat. We see a lying cat killed but I assume that it is not *the* lying cat belonging to the will. How was their magical tree rocketship set on fire.

Again, it took me a bit longer to finish as this is the difficult middle section, but it is still a solid entry and one that I still consider the best out there, comic or otherwise.
