Hello, Storyteller.

Speaking of tragedy, how's everyone holding up?

I'm still going to work but the situation has changed so it's less terrifying

My entire metropolitan area may be under a shelter-in-place order, but at least I have a new plastic friend to help me get through it.

Hello, OP. How are you enjoying life (remain indoors) after The Event? youtu.be/wnd1jKcfBRE

My job is functionally corona proof.

Lyrissa's daughter's beat poetry could be a banner quote for around here.

I'm really not telling anyone here where I work but let's just say it was 100% not remotely coronaproof

my favorite sociopath!!!

it's so good for that

Ah balls, what's the furthest digital I've sent you?
Also...those New Warriors are....uhh..uhh.

That's something at least. Not to get too serious, but this whole quite literal plague thing has got me a bit spooked, I don't mind telling you.

Imagine being stuck inside with Whirl. It'd be kinda fun at first, then you realize it's Whirl.

through 20, so if you have them that'd be great

HOLY SHIT I KNOW RIGHT, I thought that was a fucking parody

I love those doofy background aliums.

Prospect of being stuck inside for like 3 months isn't terribly heartening. Looking at what I can pick up as an indoor hobby.

Lol. How's he gonna slack off on writing despite being locked in his house?

I honestly feel like there HAS to be some kind of Thunderbolts style first storyline twist to the Newest Warriors, because they can't possibly be that on the nose, even as a joke.

I'm on an edge of a major city that is sheltered in place but my tiny dumb town's mayor told everyone to enjoy the weather, it's not that bad

I need to get back to embroidering my christmas stocking.

He can't shitpost about the Giants on LJ anymore, what's his excuse now???

At first, one is tempted to defend them because "Oh, it's just Yas Forums being edgy and bigoted.", and it is, but yeah those characters...

The whole thing feels very much how do you do fellow kids, and it's just kind of embarrassing. Which, admittedly is fairly on point for the New Warriors brand.

Snowflake(seriously) especially is weird. Like, you can tell they were created by someone who knows jack shit about non-binary people.

There's a weird convoluted history there where like, safe space was said sincerely and then was used mockingly and is now kinda out of date and actually using them as names just shows the writer has no fucking idea what he's doing.

Hey op, enjoying them opera streams?

I think the new warriors are silly and fun

I’ve had a bug for two days and it SUCKS. Not the flu and no dry cough or shortness of breath tho

"If you thought Night Thrasher was a bit of a stereotype, just wait until what we have next!"

I haven't had a chance to sit down with them but when they pony up the Kaufman Parsifal I will talk everyone through all 6 hours of it

I have allergies, it's oak jizz season, my ears are clogged. I just hope I didn't get this shit already.

Vidya?
Masturbation?

Woodworking? Lotsa YouTube videos, and you could leave a house bigger than it was when you went in it.

Oh I also read Rifters on virus downtime and lmao you were certainly not kidding about "holy shit" levels of more normatively fucked up people.

>Vidya?
It's that ah yeah my backlog *goes and does something else* feeling. Working from home is so mind-numbing when you have an unstimulating job though.

Desjardins is a piece of work, isn't he

I know that feeling. I reinstalled ESO, though

It's Trovatore on offer tonight--pretty good performance, with the late Hvorostovsky

Exactly. We've read the New Warriors' first series, and while they were indeed xtreme 90s teens, they weren't this stereotypical and absurd. ... Right?

And seriously, no person would willingly call themselves 'Snowflake' as a reference to the pejorative. Just, no.

I keep reading it as Snowflame

also the dragon age comics are boring but the book of short stories was bretty good, just another three years for a game and hopefully getting to be incredibly smug

Hey take the exact same team and swap out Snowflake for Snowflame and now we're talking.

The internet has been completely unusable for about a week now.

Also, Lucifer-user: I'm completely engrossed in this now, picking up volume 2 if I manage to get to my LCS tomorrow.

My job, which involves much direct contact with other people, particularly many Japanese nationals and people who travel to and from Japan, still has not been canceled. The campus really should be closed by now.

Funnily enough, Snowflame is set to appear in Catwoman's book. He had better just inhale a fat pile of coke, or there's no point.

I was again kinda surprised at many commonalities there were with the other books. Author's clearly got these themes he wants to reverberate on.

the best comment I saw on the controversial helicopter story was "this is like Peter Watts after six months on HRT"

Attached: L.E.G.I.O.N. (1989-1994) 019-010.jpg (1987x3055, 1.13M)

I recall Watts leaving a positive comment on the story, too.

yeah, he's a good supportive citizen in the community, too.

The ending of that first trade perfect. I can try to find the digital version if you are desperate.
If I remember right, the entirety of the second book is connected to something Lucifer did in book one that is now coming to bite his ass.

they're all so fucked up, I love them all

Unfortunately that place is Eclipso: The Darkness Within.

The only good thing about that book was the pedoseid issue, which was amazing

omg, you're totally right

Maybe having Vril act like Lyrl wasn't so off after all. No Justice was still shit though.

>pedoseid
... Somehow, I do not remember this.

I work in Food Delivery and parking around some of these restaurants and walking around them makes me feel like Vincent Price in the Last Man on Earth.

I'll have to look for exactly which one it is, but it's NOT SUBTLE

I'm more annoyed by how many threads are being made about it.

there's consistently been 3+ I hate it

BleedingCool put up Moore's original Twilight of the Superheroes pitch, I love that dude's text. He spends like the first 8 pages talking about how crossovers work and superhero universes.

it also had him being excited about Watchmen contracts which always hurts

Still going into work and I'm legit worried I might be sick and I'm either 1. underestimating very very very mild symptoms or 2. overestimating symptoms that are just my imagination ("oh jeez my throat is slightly scratchy I'm either thirsty or I'm sick").

I wish DC never screwed him over :(

There are two problems: 1. Snowflame would take over any team he's on, as a scenery chewing cokehead. 2. He's owned by DC, though he does feel like a very Marvelish character, if that makes sense.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuh...

I will never understand how anyone conjures the energy to be that angry at the existence of people and characters who are superficially different from themselves. I can't be arsed.

Bek might be a chubby chaser.

Wait, Darkseid was a pedophile before trying to seduce Mary Marvel?

Trade paperbacks ruined the industry

well it's because when you check the front page half of it is people screaming about the same thing, in the same way even!

yep

Attached: L.E.G.I.O.N. (1989-1994) 020-005.jpg (1987x3055, 1.49M)

I do have the digital, but I love to read paper whenever possible.

It's like. These fuckers are going to make me do something crazy, make me get some bitcoins, learn to torrent, buy a pass and storytime every single issue, every day until somebody fucking bans me.

And a great and popular manager too.

>a supervillain whose powers are fueled by cocaine
Yeah, it's a bit Marvel-ish.

I really wish Lobo would shut the fuck up for a minute or two. This character really only works in small doses, or he gets really annoying, really fast.

Him and Gibbons were apparently actually going to follow-up Watchmen with a Captain Marvel comic that would be the polar opposite, it would be very lighthearted and all about magic (stuff that would end up being in Promethea).

Moore's slow disillusionment with the industry is one of the great tragedies of our time.

I want to hug Lydea until she doesn't feel like killing Lyrissa anymore. And she'd probably kill me for doing it. Goddamn it.

I think we need a pedoseid storytime

I genuinely want to make some "Social Distance Warrior" t-shirts. Its the meme the Pandemic needs but doesn't have.

i want to hit people who are like "oH hE sIgNEd a ConTRacT"

i didn't read that twitter thread a while back his daughter did about how much he loved superheroes cause I knew I would be very sad and mad
