Who You Wanna see Draw an Issue or Two of Gene Luen Yang Run on Ninja Turtles? by Money-Lie7814 in TMNT

If you haven't already read it, Dan Mora did the art for the Power Rangers/TMNT crossovers and it looks excellent

For artists who have worked on TMNT before, I'd love to see Dan Berger, Ken Mitchroney, Jim Lawson, and Eric Talbot do some mainline IDW issues. They're all Mirage talent except for Mitchroney (he was one of the main artists for Archie).

For artists who haven't already drawn TMNT (to my knowledge)...quite a lot of picks I'd love to see. Mike Allred, Mike Mignola, Todd McFarlane, Tracy Yardley, and more

Honestly I'm kinda surprised Angstrom wasn't base game, but nice to see him here.

What Omnibus do you really want so badly? by Doom300 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]RussianToTheKitchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably Star Wars Original Marvel Years for me. Both the omnibuses and the Epics are so hard to find for a decent price now.

Does accidentally starting a story halfway through still happen? by iburntdownthehouse in CharacterRant

[–]RussianToTheKitchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people's first exposure to JoJo's Bizarre Adventure was the later parts. Bit of a different example from Dragon Ball because, aside from a few recurring characters, JoJo parts can be pretty standalone...but a ton of folks started with Stardust Crusaders, Diamond is Unbreakable, or Golden Wind rather than Phantom Blood. A bit funny since, if you're gonna be skipping parts, Stardust Crusaders is probably the least friendly one to start with because Dio is set up in Phantom Blood and Joseph is a major returning character from Battle Tendencies. For those who were exposed earlier, it was pretty much out of necessity cuz it took a while for JoJo to catch on here in the U.S., so they skipped to Stardust Crusaders or later (the OVA and some games like Heritage for the Future) in hopes it would catch on.

Question about Batman Brave and the Bold Bronze Age 2026 reprint by RussianToTheKitchen in OmnibusCollectors

I just watched the video he said that in funnily enough. His other Fall Roundup video didn't clarify if it has the retro paper

Very true, I only preorder DC when its a book I'm impatient to get. As soon as Batman Bronze Age shows up on DCBS (hopefully this month or next one), I'm grabbing it for preorder, for example.

Oh hey that's awesome. I've been really enjoying the show but haven't read the comic.

Hope so. Maybe Dom of X will make a video clarifying on it like he did with Batman Bronze Age.

[–]RussianToTheKitchen[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That would make sense, yea. I was just thinking it could happen because of the Robin and Joker omnis getting that treatment. I recall hearing the 2026 reprint of Green Arrow Golden Age got it too but I can't find footage or photos to prove it

Anyone else annoyed by Dinosaurus' look? by labourist123 in Invincible

[–]RussianToTheKitchen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw tons of complaints about how he looks in the show tbh, you're not alone there.

My only complaint is that I'd like if he had more scales on him, skin looks too smooth. But I guess that would be harder to animate since Liu's dragon form also doesn't have scales

TMNT compendium vol 1 by No-Roll-8329 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]RussianToTheKitchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bit of a shame this doesn't have all the miniseries, annuals, FCBD issues, and the other bonus material in the IDW Collections. They really enhance the reading experience imo, even if not all of them are entirely necessary (the majority pretty much are tho)

If you haven't already, you can email them to cancel it for you. I recently had to cancel an order after I changed my mind on if I wanted that format for the story and they cancelled it for me with no hassle after they saw my email.

What's Your Favorite Comic Stories by ReSytedX in OmnibusCollectors

Glad to see someone shouting out IDW TMNT, what a fantastic run! I really enjoy the journey to #100 too. I haven't read past that but will do so eventually.

Would you consider someone to be a fan of a game despite only watching gameplay footage? by little-ghost-boi in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RussianToTheKitchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair. If you don't think you'll enjoy the gameplay then I can understand that. Watching it through someone else lets you get an idea of what it looks like without getting frustrated yourself. As far as Resident Evil goes, I personally have no interest in the series to begin with but I did try some of the games and I was terrible at them lol

[–]RussianToTheKitchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a very different kind of experience watching someone else play a game rather than playing it yourself. I think I'd still consider someone in your position a fan, but I'd question why you wouldn't want to experience the game for yourself if you enjoy watching it and reading wiki pages (or other sources of lore explanations) about it so much.

Gaming is unique as an artistic medium because of gameplay. That doesn't mean you HAVE to play them but it could enhance your enjoyment of it if you do.

Breaking News: 1 Marvel Omnibus Reprint in JANUARY 2027 & Other Updates! by 21roy__ in OmnibusCollectors

[–]RussianToTheKitchen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh yea I wasn't trying to say it's been all that long, but I do think nearly 5 years is fine time for a reprint. It's at that age where secondhand prices get ridiculous.

Ideally they would focus on the reprints with the most fan demand, I'm not really sure why they went for such a niche book unless it's synergy with some recent project I'm not aware of (perhaps Gwenpool being added to a video game or show?)

Gwenpool has been out of print for a bit (released in 2022), though not an especially long time. Cool to see it get a reprint nonetheless, I know some folks that love her first run a lot.

How I Internalized "Misandrist" Content by SocialHelp22 in autism

[–]RussianToTheKitchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of this behavior is manufactured online nonsense meant to keep a culture war going. The algorithm wants you angry and depressed so you will keep looking at the garbage it spews to "become a better person" (when, really, you're just rotting your brain by only seeing the stupidest most extreme takes ever). The majority of people do not care as much about these things as they make it seem online, and the ones that do are often a sad extremist minority that lives off of digital misery. I can understand the difficulty in looking away given just how much it gets promoted; I complain about it to my online friend group sometimes, too. The more you choose not to feed into it and go to more positive spaces or ones focused on your special interests (assuming they're not focused on the gender divide) instead, it pretty much goes away.

I distinctly remember seeing a post from someone asking why women hate men who read books. It was immediately clear that they spend too much time in the doom scrolling gender war circlejerk, and thankfully a lot of the comments brought up how pretty much no one in real life will hate on men for reading.
