I haven't. Never heard of it, actually. You recommend it?

Joe, issue 2 of Image comics', Mark Millar's Starlight drops this week, with the 1st ish still out there. You should give it a try. I absolutely loved it.

Yes. It has Gods of every pantheon returning to Earth and not coexisting well. I'll see if I can find a link. It originally started as a mini-series and they extended it to an ongoing.

"Coming in May, two of Avatar’s newest comic series will be collected into their first trade paperback editions. Jonathan Hickman’s God is Dead has changed the way fans look at mythology. With its modern take on the fate of the world under the thumb of the returned pantheons of old, the series has found a home among Hickman’s legions of fans. This first pivotal chapter setting up the God is Dead world is the perfect starting point for fans of East of West and Manhattan Projects to enjoy yet another of his creative universes."

This was a brutal review but gives you a good idea what it is about. I think it worked as a sequential story, although the comments on characterization are spot on.

Congrats, wk - embrace this newly found freedom. You'll get used to it over time.

Nowadays, it's more of a surprise when I do find something to pick up.

Not even the 'The Art Of Captain America The Winter Soldier HC'

Can't wait to read the impressions of you, Vaultman and Protector about the movie, which rock by the way.

I love the Brubaker run-I was there since the beginning- and I love the movie too, it felt really special.

I'm waiting for my LCS to receive # 1. I dig the premise.
