Oh damn, I am definitely getting pirate Batman on Thwipster.

I think that site is going to turn me into a person who has too many figures.

Goddammit Thwipster, I may have to snag that Kirby Captain America Omnibus.

Yeah, I've been staring at that thing for a good 45 minutes now.

man, Thwipster is like a big dose of depression every day. I did get The Nightly News and a Invincible Iron Man thing from them though. But man, seeing great stuff in my inbox everyday just makes me so sad that I usually have no scratch with which to buy it.

Any opinions on Infamous 2? This bundle looks like a steal, a 320gb hard drive and a game for only $50 more than the base system.

The Game seems good, and 320GB and a game for 50$ more? Jump on that shit like Batroc. Shit, that'd be a good deal even if the game was Gambit And Maria Hill Have A Disco Dance Party.

People who have been known to have good taste in video games have told me Infamous 2 is a lot of fun if that helps.

Thwipster has the Nextwave: Agents of H.A.T.E. Ultimate Collection (which is the whole shebang) for $19. If you don't already own this and don't buy it immediately, I will sneak into your house at night and pee in your sock drawer.

Don't make me do that. Because I will.

I say without hyperbole, I believe Nextwave to be the best Marvel comic of the last 20 years. You owe yourself, your children, this book.

My LCS had a back issues sale this weekend, with 50 back issues for $50. To put that in context, I live in Australia, where a $2.99 comic sells for $4.50, and a $3.99 comic sells for $6.00. So this was a bargain.

I basically filled a few gaps in my collection and hunted down a heap of Joe Kelly and Mike Allred comics, among others. So here's what I got for $53AUD:

Action Comics 866-870 (Brainiac), 897/898 (Lex Luthor)
All Star Superman 10 (For framing purposes)
Amazing Spider-Man 612, 647, 655, Sunday Spectacular (Joe Kelly, Marcos Martin)
American Vampire 9, 13 (I'm catching up)
Batman 667-669, 672-674, 683 (The gaps in my Morrison run)
Batman and the Mad Monk 1
Batman Odyssey 1
Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight 6, 7, 9 (Gothic)
Captain America 600, 601
DC Comics Presents: Superman: Infestation (Joe Kelly, $12 comic for $1!)
Franklin Richards, Son of a Genius: Super Summer Spectacular and Everybody Loves Franklin
Jonah Hex 50 (Darwyn Cooke)
Spider-Man (Marvel Adventures)
Seaguy: Mickey Eye 1
Spider-Man: Fever 1
Supergirl 10, 11, 18 (Joe Kelly)
Superman 666 (Simonson), 707
Superman/Batman Annual 1 (Kelly)
The Authority v4 1, 2 (Morrison, for laughs)
WildCats v4 1 (Morrison, again for laughs)
The Spirit 1 (Darwyn Cooke)
X-Statix 19-25 (Allred, the Avengers arc)

So yeah, I'd say $50AUD well spent.
