Just been catching up on the last few weeks videos and wow! That end discussion and Glenn's opinions was definitely the highlight! Great stuff guys, looking forward to see more in 2025...
Michael is Ed Begley Jr!😂 And! Sounds like Donald Sutherland 😂 why is he struggling to accept this!!!😂 great episode!! Spot on with his truth on movie reviews 🙌🤘5⭐️ episode
The irony is for whatever reason (the MID GI Joe movie I think) he was brought up over the holiday at my families house & that’s how they pronounced it lol
He does sound like donald sutherland! Glad to see another LCS hang out community show. This is my world. Thank you. This show MAKES me want to hang out more at my local Comic shop.//some of those comic book covers of those new spiderman and ?cap america cover? books were good. Again, I need to check out the new comics at my LCS. I think maybe, some DC and Marvel comic covers...are getting better. ?? maybe? ref. 8:00 to 8:51 // uh, ...Glen and his shop has 250 more boxes...that they have to go through?..wow. I need to shop at his shop. Does he have an ebay channel? ref. 9:10 to 9:53
ringing in the new year with CBP!! and boy did 39:00 cut deep. i sold my books that i never thought i would ever own like hulk 181 spiderman 129 giant size xmen 1 for the same reasons glenn was talking about. stopped reading books, messed with my favorite characters. i still got my tmnt 1 first print but itll probably be gone too. im buying the last halloween to read and see what they do with it since i read long halloween and dark victory.but....hush 2 im afraid is going to be a money grab. glenn is right. i dont trust dc. i want to buy issue 1 of hush 2 but after i read that the first 6 issues are coming out this year then in 2026 the other 6 issues are coming out i bet they do tie in stuff in between in other books that may or may not have anything to do with the 12 issue main story...or they do a first 6 issues into the past hush era and the last 6 issues into the "current" timeline and make hush a woman. i dont know if i want to spend the money and take a chance on it. jim lee isnt what he used to be and i liked jim lee. and a side note.... mike does sound like donald sutherland or a cross of sutherland and wiliam hurt. i commented on a video a while back about it. others saying the same thing. i knew i wasnt crazy.
@@benng4376 agree.. I've never liked him. Fantastic Four was passable as long as you skip the FF title which is like if Power Pack was lamer and wordier. Avengers New Avengers was okay if you don't mind the complete lack of characterization/personalities and ignore that a large part is a poor mans Crisis on Infinite Earths. I think he had the benefit of being the guy who followed Bendis after he had been running on fumes for years. (Love Bendis in the 2000s, ten times the writer Hickman ever was, but the tail end at Marvel in the 2010s was very bad.) Similar to how Tom King lowered the floor for Batman making Tynion's run (fantastic art, passably mediocre writing) look great in comparison.
A good friend of mine picked up Pet Pool and hyped it up. I found it in my LCS not long after and almost grabbed it, but I just couldn't do it. Instead I grabbed issues 2 & 3 of the new Wolverine run (and got the Skottie Young cover for issue 2), and got issue 2 of The Last Halloween. I do try a lot of new books, but unfortunately, when my budget gets smaller, I do tend to stick with what I know. But I will hit the back issues to see if I missed anything really good. Great episode, guys.
Great show guys. Glenn should definitely consider selling his comic collection now. For what he sells Amazing Fantasy 15 for, he could easily buy every Marvel Epic Collection and have the entire Marvel Universe on his bookshelf at home, and whatever he gets for the rest of his collection can go into his retirement fund.
Also great discussion at the end. Never were truer words spoken. I absolutely agree with the take on New Gods but LOSH has always been the book I look forward to if they try it again.
Yeah I liked Damage, The Terrifics, Sideways & Brimstone a lot & had potential. There was also Red Lion appearing in Deathstroke who was a cool new character going a few! Bring them back, as ‘new blood’ is needed at DC! Is that Mr Layher from Trailer Park Boys in the turquoise vest/jacket ;)
I like Silencer the run especially after JRJR (who was only marring the pages for a few issues.) I also like the entire Damage run. The rest of New Age of Heroes I mostly like the first few issues except Unexpected which was unreadable from the start.
Silencer wasn’t bad as the Punisher-like book & would work in Suicide Squad, as mentioned here! Lol, yeah was that ‘the Jim Lee’ book? I put in quotes because I recall he didn’t do more than an issue & a half or so lol Terrifics was cool & I liked Tom Strong showing up. That was cool & Ivan Reis artwork is always a plus!
@@phillipbug958 Immortal Men was the one where Jim Lee did a couple pages. Books Jim Lee is announced for have had very few pages of Jim Lee art in recent years. Suicide Squad Rebirth he did a few pages for 4 or 6 issues or whatever and then yeah Immortal Men I don't think he even did a whole issue.
My favorite DC characters are Swamp Thing, Deathstroke, Flash, Aquaman & Green Lantern My favorite Marvel Character are Moon Knight, Cable, Gambit & Captain Marvel (Rick Jones, When he’s by Peter David) 2nd stringers, overall in ‘popularity’ Who are yours? I prefer indie characters & comics & currently enjoy the Transformers, GI Joe & Conan comics
Allegedly theres sub 1200 shops left in the country. Its obvious why. Kids dont read comics. I dont personally know anyone under 30 who is interested in reading comics. I know people who buy them as a collectible art print with extra pages they never read. How is an industry supposed to survive when the vast majority never takes the book out of the bag? Its my opinion the creators need to pivot to animated issues that can be watched on phones and tablets if they want this hobby to remain having a story along with the art. Otherwise artists will eventually wise up and understand its their cover art that is the only thing selling books today and that they can cut out the publishers and simply create and sell limited prints instead.
I think they should start advertising in the movies and shows. Imagine how many books they’d sell if they had RDJ come on and start showing off the new Ultimates for like 30 seconds with a little push for kids to go check out their LCS.
@@BROWNMIST44 I completely agree as a teenager reading comic books I went my whole life not knowing about them while really liking superhero’s because they fail to advertise them
@SteelersvidzprodI have no idea why they’ve never done it. Imagine going to see the first Cap movie and he just comes out before the credits in black and white with a propaganda style “I want YOU to support the troops! And your LCS!” Ad lol.
LoSH is never going to work again because DC will never revisit the original version of the team, the team that developed through a 35-year history. That's the one Legion fandom (maybe the most passionate fanbase of all-time) prefers. But how many of them are still hanging around with comics, as the 5YL era in '89 began that down shift? Every reboot seems to start from scratch. And Bendis may have ended the franchise forever.
I’m commenting multiple times for the algorithm to help video. I’d take Warren Ellis over Hickman or Snyder or J Aaron any day of the week. I like Morrison, Johns, Millar, Lemire, Josh Williamson, PK Johnson & DWJ a lot as writers & rest are just okay.
Despite the tears because of human blemishes of society this show is a highlight. Happy new year 😂❤
I love this show, because it's a case study of what people actually want, and how a shop actually runs.
Just been catching up on the last few weeks videos and wow! That end discussion and Glenn's opinions was definitely the highlight! Great stuff guys, looking forward to see more in 2025...
Happy New Year to the Palace!
13:40 When's the podcast coming out with all the guys ?
Michael is Ed Begley Jr!😂
And! Sounds like Donald Sutherland 😂 why is he struggling to accept this!!!😂 great episode!! Spot on with his truth on movie reviews 🙌🤘5⭐️ episode
Back in my day comics were only a nickel! And you got a free bag of popcorn!
5:42 Shannum Tatum?

DC and Marvel need to watch this to see who their real audience is and not the fake one that social media tells them is.
My shop is closed today which is understandable, but at least I get to feel like I didn’t miss out thanks to this.

Good shit
That Captain America shield looks so good man! Glenn's bro took good care of it.
Had to size it up to XXL so there was enough shield to protect all that girth. It's Volstagg sized ;)
“Pre-Qwells” lol
I’m glad that notice came up, I was half way through my email to Glenn requesting to purchase his dad
He does sound like Donald Sutherland. Cannot unhear!
He does sound like Donald Sutherland in Invasion of the Body Snatchers and Kelly’s Heroes!!
Happy New Years guys!!! Here’s to having another great year at the Palace in 2025.

Jonathan Hickman should stick to writing Science text books. Happy New Year.
The guy can design a killer DNA strand and then bore you to death explaining it over a few hundred pages.
@@benng4376 agree.. I've never liked him. Fantastic Four was passable as long as you skip the FF title which is like if Power Pack was lamer and wordier.

Glenn should apply to be a comic book writer 😂
Happy new year!! 🎉

Also great discussion at the end. Never were truer words spoken. I absolutely agree with the take on New Gods but LOSH has always been the book I look forward to if they try it again.
But how do comics evolve if we don't change anything? Epic rant about Spidey, Glenn.
Yeah I liked Damage, The Terrifics, Sideways & Brimstone a lot & had potential. There was also Red Lion appearing in Deathstroke who was a cool new character going a few! Bring them back, as ‘new blood’ is needed at DC!
Is that Mr Layher from Trailer Park Boys in the turquoise vest/jacket ;)

Hey glen zilla zilla. Nice

Hi guys 😂🎉 haappy year to all Mfm
Great vid guys we need more michael great guy
Wonder girl im still waitin for issue 8
Sigh, if only my “Star-Warriors & Super-Heroes” story would get picked up. A Star Wars/Marvel cross-over would be a huge event!
My favorite DC characters are Swamp Thing, Deathstroke, Flash, Aquaman & Green Lantern
My favorite Marvel Character are Moon Knight, Cable, Gambit & Captain Marvel (Rick Jones, When he’s by Peter David)
2nd stringers, overall in ‘popularity’
Who are yours?
I prefer indie characters & comics & currently enjoy the Transformers, GI Joe & Conan comics
I wish they would bring back Sideways
Quesada ruined Spider-Man because he was going through a divorce. Now the fans have suffered for all these years.

Rob Venditti is also good
& Cristos Gage isn’t bad
Hey jefferson happy new year. C u soon mfm
Nailed the deadpool review. The member berries were tasty but not filling enough. Was bored of the "funnys" about two thirds through. Overrated movie
