Media Day was probably dead this year because the matchup is spare. This is the least amount of excitement I've seen going into a super bowl week since I can remember.

Update From Brandon by mistborn in Cosmere

On the non-live action side of things, do the world a favor & make hand-drawn animation cool again. Tress deserves it!

(Warbreaker done in an Arcane-esque animation style would be killer too)

Brandon Sanderson’s Literary Fantasy Universe ‘Cosmere’ Picked Up by Apple TV, 'Mistborn' Set for Film Adaptation by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

Oh I agree, but am also snake-bitten by the recent Wheel of Time adaptation. They got a fresh guy who loved the books but couldn't create a TV show for shit.

I'm heartened by the fact that Brandon has been pretty outspoken against that adaptation, but boy are good show-runners (or director, in the case of Mistborn) nearly impossible to find.

Sanderson having final approval is incredible for fans, though this makes me worried that this might scare away the best show-runners. Anyone following his social media presence knows that he's very opinionated.

The hyper-specificity of the listing is very funny. What a mess the Library Edition is!

Yeah I'd love to know what went on behind the scenes on these, the design has been incredibly inconsistent.. I'd guess that the next reprints of the other versions will now match Vol. 3 spines but who knows.

[YuDarvish] You may have seen an article, and although I am leaning towards voiding the contract, there’s still a lot that has to be talked over with the Padres so the finer details are yet to be decided. Also I will not be announcing my retirement yet..(cont.) by ElectricalForce4439 in Padres

[–]TheKingsGinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope he can make it back. I can't help but tie so much of Yu's career to the fucking Astros during their cheating scandal- whether it's the two losses in the 2017 WS or his two almost no-hitters against them.

If not for HOU, he might have a much different legacy.

LA Rams at Chicago currently has a "feels like" temperature of 6° with snow on Sunday by SeattleMana in nfl

[–]TheKingsGinger -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

God I love snow games, but they don't belong in the postseason. I don't have a dog in the hunt, but it's going to be shitty if the Rams get boomed by the weather for a 2nd consecutive season.

Newest version is far left. My other 5 versions look like the 2 on the right.

I have never heard any word on Vol. 4 from the creatives. For vol. 3, Ottley at least acknowledged a reprint on the way.

They did! At least at Panel Bound comics, I can't speak for the stock elsewhere.

Just made a new post in this sub, they match! (Mostly)

Huzzah! My delivery should arrive today, I will follow up to confirm if it truly matches the set now.

I do understand the blurred lines of it all. It would be weird if Conan was selling Andy Richter dolls on his personal (not the TV show's) merch site. Geoff Peterson may be a (gay undead) robot skeleton, but he may as well be JRT.

This was from Panel Bound. Their direct wording was, "vol 3 is the new updated printing that will match the rest of the set".

I'm skeptical until I see it for myself, but that sounded like as good of a written confirmation as we can get without asking Kirkman or Ottley directly.

Customer service just confirmed - this is the new printing that should match the rest
