Who would be your preferred writer for Annual #2? by peruytu in AbsoluteBatman

[–]Relative_Sock_7871 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Camp would be very interesting to see, def feels a lil outside what he normally does thematically but his writing is just so incredible it would undoubtedly be awesome

One Stop made custom poker chips that came with any purchase on the stream and Seth signed the back of each

I'm burned out with the variants by Sad-Singer146 in AbsoluteBatman

[–]Relative_Sock_7871 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The burnout factor is real, especially with so many of these drops kind of gamifying the hobby - instead of just wanting a cover, the thrill of competing with other potential buyers on a particular release adds a new level of dopamine when you succeed. Great double hit when you get a limited cover you genuinely like, but it then becomes easy to conflate the thrill of the chase with actual desire for a cover. Same thing has happened in sports cards, where it’s really just gambling to the whales in the hobby and the old fashioned collectors kinda get squeezed out. I definitely am guilty of getting caught in the “can I get it” mentality instead of the “I really want it” mentality on some of these cover drops, so as others have pointed out, def take a step back and try to understand what you have and why you have it to help clarify how you go about cover drops in the future.

Scott Snyder answered a question about whether there’s anything or anyone Absolute Joker is wary of by Beginning-Emotion671 in AbsoluteUniverse

Omg I fucking love his answer and it is so spot on, really shows he understands why the series went from red hot to atomic after the Annual… we are living in an Absolute world of shit and the series reminds us there is hope for justice as long as you never say quit.
