A TON of news broke since the last show so we have quite a bit to discuss. SDCC brought in quite a bit of media news (The Flash, Batman vs Superman, Suicide Squad trailer etc.) and we heard word about some comics that’ll be coming from Marvel post-Secret Wars (yay Squirrel Girl!).
Look at the majestic pup to the right. So handsome. So very handsome. Maybe even more handsome than the God of Thunder himself.

ah, Riverdale... where the streets are clean and all the teenagers are in their 20s... wonder how long it'll take a final trade of the fraction/aja hawkeye run to come out... been reading them that way and have been holding off until I can get that last issue I'm looking forward to picking up my last 2 weeks worth of books this afternoon. Bobby's take on Injection 3 has me pumped to read it; very cool series so far. Watched the Suicide Squad and Deadpool trailers just so I knew what you guys were talking about. SS didn't really grab me, but then I don't really have any connection to those characters (I have strong opinions about the Joker; Heath Ledger's Joker is "My" Joker with Jack Nicholson a close second ). Looks like a decent action movie though. Deadpool looks like it could be good but right now I'm cautious about it. I dig some good humor and action, but not at the expense of story and from the trailer it almost looks like it's just a series of explosions and one-liners. I want it to be fun but if the goofiness is too over the top i could see passing on it until it comes to Netflix or something.
