  • Steveinthecity: When Thor pulls the hammer back to throw, his momentum stops. He has always been able to float or hover once airborne, and he'll remain until the hammer comes back to him.  I guess the winds keep him aloft.

  • Biollante: ok so shouldn't Joe Quesada know that? lol  It made him look a bit stupid imo.
    May 21, 2012, 07:57:37 AM
  • Jabroniville: Yeah, that's odd- Thor usually has the Hammer out in front. Though I don't think it's ever explained how he can throw it while in mid-flight and not just plummet like a goof. I wish artists would stop having him do things like that :)
    May 21, 2012, 07:23:13 AM
  • Steveinthecity: @Biolante:  Thor uses the hammer to fly. He can throw his hammer during flight and float in one spot until the hammer returns to him. Don't know what Joe Q. was thinking there. I've never seen Thor fly on his own.

  • Biollante: Joe Quesada was drawing Thor on some Disney promo, and he drew him flying with his hammer on his side, now I'm not a Thor junkie, but isn't that actualy inaccurate, doesn't he fly by being dragged by his hammer???

    May 20, 2012, 10:58:08 AM
  • Biollante: gonna be hard for anyting to catch up, Ridley Scott is pretty much the top of dark visual design imo, and he drew a lot from Moebius for that film, most fillm makers are not really connected to aestheticas of good fantasy film making in the same way

Heavy Metal Magazine (I know the first two titles really go together.  LOL)
Batwoman (Just subscribed today!  Almsot forgot it was launching on the 31st.)

All the Digests
All the Archie floppies
Life with Archie Magazine

DC:
Justice League (been collecting this for 40+ years, I can't quit now)
Birds of Prey
Secret Six

(after the reboot next month, I'll be down to just Justice League. Might try Batgirl since I love Gail Simone's writing)

Atlas:
All titles! (Phoenix, Grim Ghost, Wulf)

...Does this always mean " literal " , by-mail subscriptions  ??? ???????????
  Just US/Can/otherwise mail or subscription services too ???
  I have often thought that it appears , anyway , that modern-day comic books don't seem to emphasize subscriptions much anymore , THO' Archie , DC and Marvel , I guess , offer all of their regularly published titles as subs , I suppose...Of course , I mean ,Archie is different from this , they DO still emphasize subscription ads and , for contrast , DC and Marvel seem to not do so anymore , and they did in the 80s/90s...
  Maybe,  among my older generation of comics fans there was more of a " Support your local comics shop " AND a " Comics via subscription get all _!&*@d up " - ??? -  feeling , and , of course , since many comics shops give little or no love >:( to our Riverdale homies :'( , even where there is a comics shop...

Um... I have a pull list at my local comic shop and it works out to about 20 comics a week, plus three or four books - so it's pretty extensive!  I'm into many alternate titles, but get about 10 titles from each of the big two.  Plus, all Archie, Boom kids (ducks), etc.

It seems many of my favourites are getting cancelled (ducks), but DC is doing some relaunches - so we'll have to see.

Mostly, I go by characters - regardless of title.  About the only thing I don't buy are mini series - I wait for the trade.  Unless it's something I really can't wait on.

Right now I'm subscribed to Arche, Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic Universe.  I read them every chance I get but I get them mostly for collection purposes, trying to stay 100% complete on the Sonic series

My pull list is only from the New 52 for now. Sorted by group:

(Justice League related)
Justice League

(Superman related)
Action
Superboy

(Batman related)
Batman
Batgirl
Nightwing
Red Hood and the Outlaws
Birds of Prey

(Green Lantern related)
Green Lantern
Green Lantern Corps
Green Lantern: New Guardians
Red Lanterns

(Dark group)
Animal Man

(Edge group)
Deathstroke

(Young Justice group)
Teen Titans
Hawk and Dove


After adding Animal Man and removing Hawk and Dove, I realized that the first week would consist only of serious comics (Action, Red Lanterns, Animal Man). I re-added Hawk and Dove because it was far lighter than the rest of the first week titles.

Stuff I wanted but can't afford:

Wonder Woman
Aquaman
Batman and Robin
Justice League Dark
Suicide Squad
Blue Beetle

And I can't even get started on Marvel (wanting to try Uncanny X-Force and other Wolverine/Deadpool related books, as well as Captain America) or get back into Archie.


In most cases, I am following books for the character.

I'm thinking of subscribing to all of the Archie floppies...but I would like to know if they are mailed properly...by that, I mean...do the individual issues come packed well? I don't want to receive a comic each month that arrives bent or damaged. I recently received a package from Archie.com and the back issues of Life With Archie were damaged.
