Comics

Lately I have being getting into digital comics trough my iphone. Really getting into the Ultimate universe of Marvel, from the Ultimates, Death of Spider-Man, to Starting Ultimate X-Men. Cause you know, it's not written for kids and more mature in content.

What I wanna know is, anyone got any other recommendations? From Marvel to DC to any other publisher.

Also I like Deadpool. He's fun.

Where do you find these comics for iPhone? Are they free to download?

You can get the Marvel APP. Some are free (Very small few) others you pay for. You can use an itunes card to credit your account and use that to pay for the comics. DC, IDW, Image and Dark Horse also have apps.

Ah that's pretty cool. I've been buying some of the Ultimate Collections for a few series. Right now I have Ultimate X-Men: Ultimate Collections 1-4, and Ultimate Spider-Man: Ultimate Collection Vol. 1. I perfer the collections because it's cheaper than buying all of the individual volumes. If I can find collections (and I'm sure they exist) for some of the other ones like Ultimate Avengers, I'll start getting into those. I was never really into comics myself as a youngster, but I did watch all the comic book based cartoons of the 90's. Spider-Man quickly surpassed Batman as my favorite, then X-Men took 2nd. I've got a sweet X-Men poster that I framed and hung on my wall. This is what I have, but mine isn't the textless version. It says "X-Men: Messiah Complex" on the bottom right of the one I have. I'm looking for a nice Spider-Man one of the same size to hang next to it on the other side of the wall behind my TV.

I have got The Ultimates Vol.1 in that collection and on my phone I got Vol. 1-4 of Ultimate X-Men, Ultimate War, Ultimatum and the New series that started. A lot of Deadpool and a few of the Carnage. The Ultimate Marvels are really good though

I think the only comics I've sat down and read are the Resistance comic and a few Hellboy comics.

Really like Hellboy.

Yeah, I must admit I really do like the Ultimate X-Men and Spider-Man storylines. I definitely want to check out the Civil War storyline, but I don't feel like trying to track down all those individual volumes. Do you know if there's an anthology of those that's been published?

Just in case someone in here isn't currently having nightmares.

I'd have to say Symbiote Wolverine is pretty scary too:

Not sure on a complete anthology, and that collection will be getting some Civil War Stuff alright. Would be a pain to track them all down.
Have you tried the Marvel website see if they have anything on there like a "Complete Collection" type thing that you can get?

Not yet, but I'm sure the guys at my local comic book shop would know (or be able to find out/order) if a special anthology or any "Complete Collection" has been published.

Been intrested in trying to track down rhe Civil war anthology, seems like a kick ass story ark, Now.. to find that comic book store !

I know a comic book shop that's open 24/7, but you have to wait a few days to get your merchandise.

Still need credit card and money on said credit card
So I think I'll just stick with one locally.

Good idea.

Decent deal, I've dealt with these guys before they had 50 comics for 20 bucks. There were some gems and some meh. If you like half of 'em you got a great deal.

That sound pretty sweet man. I'll check them out.

Just bought my second and third Comic/Graphic novel.

Batman year one.
Freaking love this book, could not put it down... Now I'm sad that I already read it, Definately recommend it for anyone that likes Batman.. even if you don't like batman you'll probably like this book.

and Kick-Ass 2.
I loved the first book, the writing was a little iffy but enjoyable. this book.. How ever was just.. Disturbing and even disgusting, one of the main villain characters (was just a jackass in the first book) turns into a Serial killer, rapist and deranged lunatic. You feel no compassion with the "Main heroes" kick-Ass and hit-Girl. The main focus here are the side characters but they disappear as fast as they are introduced, also the swearing was kinda funny in the first book but here its so bad that it gets comical and annoying.

I dont know, I'm not quite sure how I feel about it.. have to read it again.

I'll have to look into that Batman one, thanks for the recommendation Jolli.

Mark Millar did Kick Ass 2 didn't he? Wouldn't be surprised

Yeah, I just read that he is scottish.. so it doesn't surprise me.

What does being Scottish have to do with Kick-Ass?

Well Scots tend to talk in Swears and profanity's... thats why, we aren't surprised that KA2 is a wile piece of liturature.

Obviously you've never seen an Italian family lol. Always swearing everywhere.

Irish.

How about just European in general?
