John Snow serves no other purpose here but to give people a hard time. Just ignore him, everyone else does.

:looks at shipping list for 6/1:

Looney Toons #199, amirite?

[Victorian Squid]

[insert second cutting joke]

[doombug]

Should have quit last week, IMO.

oh I'm sorry let me go back in time and select random indie book #214 that 3 comic shops carry next time.

[Rockman]

i'm just sick of some of this shit lately on the board. it's why i've been posting less here and posting more elsewhere.

I picked the book because it's by a friend whose work I enjoy a lot. not because it's marvel. I know it's the last issue of a mini series but it's a mini that i've felt every issue has been accessible from.

Sorry to rant quoting you AMS because we don't have any problems.

Oh and Squid, fuck off.

If I remember when the trade comes out I'll pick it up.

My shop has never ordered enough of these hawkeye books for everyone, I meant to pick up all the previous ones and I never saw them there. I was shocked that this issue was still on the stands when I got there.

[Victorian Squid]

The RG is no place for diplomacy, AMS.

Yes, because publisher is the issue here.

Asking people to pay for the last issue of a 3rd tier mini is a completely asshole thing to do, it doesn't matter if it's by Bendis or Johns or your Facebook friend. Expecting us to jump in at the end of the story and get anything out of it is just dumb.

One review in four pages? Freaking review group wasting my time. I demand SPOILERS!!

no dog in this hunt here, but is that really any different from asking somebody to pick up the middle chapter of a 6-isue arc? i KNOW you guys don't just select first issues every week...

No hes right. It's not like every issue of this mini has had a recap page or anything like every other Marvel book.

The people who pick mid-arc books get shit for it too.

I'd say 85-90% of picks fall into the #1/beginning of arc/new creative team/stand alone/one shot categories, the remaining 10-15% fall into the event book/mid-arc categories. I can't remember any instance where someone has picked the last issue of a stand alone mini.

Hawkeye gets his vision back and returns to spreading various STDs among the Avengers with lady bits.

[Punchy]

We also reviewed #52 of a 52-part series, and it was well-recieved.

4 of 4 is nothing compared to that, stop moaning.

Event books are different animals, IMO.

And 52 Week 52 was a war. Not because it was the pick, but because I gave it a bad score and rabid DC fanmen had a hissy fit.
