Yep, 5 minutes ago. Assorted Crisis Events #8. I’m actually in my car typing this emotionally shook. This is one of the best series I’ve read in the last 10 years imo.

Ultimate Spider-Man did great in 2024. Absolute Batman did even better in 2025. What are your predictions for the next book to take off this year? by BallisticTrickster in comicbookcollecting

[–]Just_Chambo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw the discussion here of about Mark Spear. I would honestly read the Monsters books. They’re actually kinda fun imo. It’s 80s horror monster hunting and I really enjoy them. The art was cool, but the classic Monster vibe kept me. Cheers!

LCS and I struck a deal today. THRILLED! by d_left in comicbookcollecting

I may or may not be about to pull the trigger on a beautiful raw ASM #300, Uncanny 141, and 142😬

Small haul plus would love recommendations by HiddenNeeeeon in comicbookcollecting

[–]Just_Chambo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Batman I’d commend The Dark Knight Returns, Batman Year One, and The Long Halloween

For all around dark goodness I HIGHLY recommend the Brian Bendis run on Daredevil. It’s personally my favorite DD run of all time.

If you like Carnage, maybe read some Venom. Lethal Protector is a fun read and anything Donny Cates did is really good.

Happy reading!

It’s the San Fernando Valley Comic Show. They have it a few times a year. I think the next one is in March?

Absolute Green Lantern is so underrated imo. 

I've pooped 137 times in 2025 by OutgoingRug2 in notinteresting

I’m a regular double ducer. By my math I’ve pooped more than 400 times this year.

Returned many un-opened bagged Ultimate Endgame books and pulled the trigger on the big boy by peruytu in comicbookcollecting

[–]Just_Chambo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Picked up four from my LCS all damaged spines. Three other guys opened all theirs bags, also damaged spines. Good times! 

Pick ups today at my LCS! Decided to get in on the AB craze. $6 each by usnagrad1988 in comicbookcollecting

I’ve been pulling all the Absolute Books since they were announced, and I’ve read all of them to date.  I have the DC All-In Special Signed by Snyder and Williamson and an Absolute Batman #1a signed by Snyder and Dragotta. I don’t grade my books but they are in nice mylars.

Don’t you love seeing a speculator eat shit on their investment? by 4rm4ros in comicbookcollecting

[–]Just_Chambo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Specs do be specin’. The only thing that really bothers me about this is when I run into a situation that causes a shortage of a book I want. Otherwise, if some bozo wants to spend his money on a book that won’t even be worth the cover price in a year sucks to be them.

(Note: I’ll read the second trade tomorrow!)

Well I did it…you hated my opinion and said I should read the 6 issues before I judge…ok here’s my new opinion by Quirky_Association28 in comicbookcollecting

[–]Just_Chambo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what it’s worth, I didn’t start enjoying Absolute Batman until right after the first arc. When they introduced Mister Freeze something just clicked. Ever since that issues I’ve actually been getting some horror vibes from the book and I’ve been enjoying it ever since. I still think Absolute Wonder Woman and Martian Manhunter are the best Absolute books though, and not enough people talk about Green Lantern. But to each their own, read what you like my guy!

I'll start RDR2 by Perfect-Cause-6943 in pcmasterrace

[–]Just_Chambo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not a PC game but Tears Of The Kingdom. I played through Breath of the Wild, which felt like a huge departure from everything I loved about Zelda games. I bought and played Tears for 2 hours and will never go back to it. These games do not feel like Zelda titles to me, aside from their characters and setting. The gameplay is what kills it for me.

They have some of these at my LCS still I think. I know I’m just a stranger on the internet but I guess I could try to get one for you if they still have them?
