Sauce Dog Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 My comic reading nook overfloweth; This week saw the arrival of half of these trades (Inferno onwards), the other half arrived last week and I quickly devoured them as I worked to catch up on what is now clearly one of the best X-Men run I've ever read and possibly one of my top three rosters of the team.

Jesse-Lee Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Bought a near-complete run of Batwing (27 of the 35 total books) for $25, mostly because I wanted these 2 books from the run - Batwing 19 (1st appearance of Luke Fox) and Batwing 20 (1st appearance of Luke Fox as Batwing): ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADAMANTIUM Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I own these as first prints but was able to obtain a 3rd print of the first cameo, which I believe is the first cover appearance. I'm not sure the release date of other covers. Just glad I saw them, they were sandwiched in a run of Iron Man, and had like 3 different price stickers Timeless icons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southern cross Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 I don't own these, I just borrowed them to read. I love this cover, the variant covers are ok. There's a Frank Miller variant cover for this book. There's a foil that looks really nice but I prefer this standard cover. I didn't realize Mat is a priest and catching up with that fact I enjoyed the story. The interior artwork I kind of liked. The the Hulk book that I've not been reading but was drawn by the Man thing. I enjoyed this story, it appears to be part one with the story continuing in the next issue. I also enjoyed the interior artwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timeless icons Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 (edited) Grabbed this from Ebay yesterday. The book is much darker in hand but this scan (not mine) is washed out a bit.

I did just get Gears #9 the Lee Variant which is supposed to be very scarce for the entire series. It is in 9.8 condition so it'll be one I'll be sending in at some point.

It's a cool run for sure. Some of the gears covers are outstanding. Good luck with your sub on that 9 copy. captainzombie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comics and novels did a great job at adding to it. I have the 3 hardcover trades that have all the comics collected Timeless icons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have to grab a reader copy at some point. I like the Halo books as well. All those videogame books like Mass Effect, God of War, Halo, Gears..etc.. I'd like to put a small collection of them together eventually. Do the trades have the variant covers inside as well for each issue?

mtracy64 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 I've been wanting to add this one in 9.8 for almost 20 years and finally got the opportunity to do so. D2, ADAMANTIUM and BrightSide77 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get a chance to read this series at all? I was wondering if it was pretty good or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that the tagline bottom left illustrates what could be a considered a "melted head cover" haha, more importantly? I've never seen a "superman's boots" illustrated quite so cowboyish, for a lack of a better term I guess that is superman, read to find out!
