Who would of thought that having a kid was so damn expensive.  Oh Wait... everyone?!? OK, i knew it was going to be expensive but Jesus really can't get my comics on a weekly basis.  Man she must be important to me, especially in a week where the next issue of Batman RIP comes out.

Oh well this made me a little sad so i decided to do something comic related anyway.  i put in my August order for DCBS.

Sorry i have been a lazy blogger these last two weeks but the way i look at it it gives some of you slackers a chance to get caught up. Plus i am getting over a horrible cold and don't really feel like typing.

My Haul and Final Crisis

Ok Folks, My list of shit to get this week was only three comics so how the fuck did i leave the shop with 7. kev for once i am blaming you for at least one of them.

Anyway my haul this week is:

Final Crisis #3 (yeah Bitches)
Detective 847
Nightwing 147
Robin 176(yes i bought into the whole RIP scheme)
Green Lantern 33
The Boys 21
The Authority Worlds End #1 (This better be good Kev)


Ok folks i will give a shiny canadian nickel to the person that guesses the first thing i read.

You better fucking believe it was final crisis 3.

I was a little disappointed in the coloring of this issue.  the colorist was Alex Sinclair and for some reason he decided to make this issue very drab.  I have read plenty of things that are colored by him and usually he is very vivid and the colors just pop off the page.  I felt like i was reading this issue through a fog.  I almost wanted to break out the colored pencils myself here and brighten some of the pages up.

This story was like Grant Morrison saying to Geoff Johns.  "OK Bitch! I see you silver age and raise you with a heaping dose of the Golden age! What the fuck you got." (and kevin really does not want that question answered).  I mean we have fucking All Star Squadron, Alan Scott enacting shit from Roosevelt, fucking Streaky the Wonder Cat.  Holy fuck i think i am about to cum.... Wait for it... please last.... ok there is Dinah in her panties... ok release is done now i need to clean up.

The possibility of tow holders of the anti life equation and Mokari being able to build a computer virus that will infect the fucking world.  Jesus Grant a man needs to rest after that last explosion i can't go twice so fast.

Add on top of that Frankenstein from 7 Soldiers and the Question.  Grant, JG there is only so much in a man please let me take a nap.

Well i really need to relax or my heart is going to explode.

Talk to y'all later,

TJ
