Not sure if I regret not getting the variants.
They make much more sense in retrospective.

>>81253343
I haven't really read DC since Flashpoint- Is this series... in character for nu52 Kyle? Like, I don't remember him ever being significantly religious, and like every other scene with him in this series seems to be him praying.

And now, we wait.
I'm heading to sleep.
Will post if not yet posted when I wake.

Remember to support the official release.

>>81253392
I wish I picked up that issue of Convergence just for the preview.

>>81255786
If someone want to make a storytime when you're asleep ask that someone to post here.

>>81255781
Something I realized was that not just the last, but every issue has the mirrored panel layout. Sometimes I think King is too clever for his own good.

>>81254187
I think the point was he was turning to religion when he had no other choice.

anyone got the new issue?

>>81254187
Kyle technically is Catholic but it's never brought up often.

>>81253343
>it's about time we look back to find where it all went wrong
Wait, it went wrong? All I ever heard was praise for this series. I was planning on reading it, but if it sucks, I won't bother.

YES! THANK YOU OP! Only King I haven't read

>>81259594
Literally kill yourself niggga.

>>81254187
>>81259214
He's Irish-Mexican so he's of course Catholic but he never really practiced in it much during his run. King just brought it back from obscurity.

>>81253465
Reading that intro again after reading all the issues out and then seeing this cover, it's just too great.
I cannot imagine how upset editorial and King himself have to be that this wasn't a blow-up hit, I mean, I'm pissed off by the fact.
I hope trades of this remain in print forever.
Praise Omega!

YAWN
Good morning /co/!
Just woke up, and a new issue is out!
>>81255786
Now where were we...

>>81260382
>Waddling off as fast as central city lightning

I think that might be a reference lost on most people in space.

>>81260430
Who IS the narrator? I read the issue and I still can't tell, am I retarded

>>81260447
>am i retarded

...maybe

The white boxes are the Chairman of the Galaxies Committee. The purple boxes are the Viceroy of the Citadel. They're having a screencasted conversation, as seen in the middle panel.

>>81260447
Bigger interplanetary honcho that wants that MacGuffin Fuel

>tfw someone in the Batman thread said that the Viceroy represents some of the decisions that King had to make in the CIA

Well, that's it for Omega Men 10!
Tune in next month for the penultimate issue!

>>81260603
Wait...I thought Kalista was a bad guy? Why does she get a happy ending?

>>81260781
Because she is best waifu

Banging Kyle doesn't make her evil anon

>>81260524
>The white boxes are the Chairman of the Galaxies Committee
Yeah but why does he make a reference to the Flash? And why does he sound like a southerner

>>81260382
>>81260404
>using a pink sword
He still loves Kalista

>blue pistols
>Scrapps is hope
2 cute

>>81260927
Not to mention that he's feeding of Tigorr's rage and Primus' fear of actually killing people.

>>81253343
Oh wait, I thought this thread was for an Omega Red ongoing.

>>81260927
Primus's guns are also yellow.

>>81260538
>>81260551
This use of the panels is really impressive and Kyle just observing the scene is a simple, but effective way to convey the point

>>81260449
Man it sucks to be Primus.

>>81261060
This is better than an Omega Red ongoing, anon. Pull up a chair and read with us.

>>81260874
It does make her a dead woman walking.

>>81260874
>banging kyle doesn't make her evil.
Of course not, it's her bloodlust that makes her evil.

>>81262244
But she uses her bloodlust for good!

>>81260927
I can't decide if Kyle has the best taste in women or the worst.
>Jade
>Donna
>Carol
>Kalista

I am not all caught up on current cosmic DC status quo - what exactly is the white lantern powerset? Just different coloured constructs?

>>81262823
It's source manipulation.

>>81262474
>Jade
>Not a top tier Waifu before Raab turned her into a cheating slut

>>81262474
They are all pretty great

But they're all better off away from Kyle than they are with him, generally

>>81260616
Sad as fuck.

>>81260673
King is trying to paint what Americans consider "terrorists" in fair picture, right?

Jesus Christ Afghanistan fucked this dude up, its like King is Mr Rogers if all those rumors were true.

>>81260673
Between Sheriff of Babylon, Omega Men,Grayson and Batman are we going to say that ptsd is to King what dead cat are to Morrison and dead sisters are to Johns?

>>81264737
>>81264820
I think we just meme about it at the end of the day but considering what the themes of his books are, he's seen some fucked up shit.

>>81260927
I don't think it's necessarily his love. The page previous said they all stand with him. Kyle is Compassion for their cause, Kalista is love for her people, Scrapps is hope for the end of the war, Tigorr is rage for what's been done to him, and Primus is fear for the things he's being forced to do.

Boop

>>81267593

>>81260673

thats dark

>>81260616
So I'm not the only one picking up the theme of this issue being that Rayner CAN'T belong to the Omega Men, even though he's trying to with everything he has, right?

I wonder what's going to happen next.

>dat issue 9 countdown

I can't read through the earlier issues at the moment, but I could have sworn Primus was dead.

>>81269202

thats reasonable

The visual image this series puts in my mind is a long nail vibrating in an old white wall. You can't tell whether the wall is shaking or the nail is.

Bump for Darkseid cultists.

>>81254003
Oh my god.

>>81254587
>>81254592
>>81254611
>>81254615
This is great. You can see what her father is really saying all throughout it.

>>81269202
They were all grievously injured at one point

I think Broot is the only one who's died

>>81255337
Green Lanterns ain't that easy huh.

>>81255601
Oh, fuck.

>>81272263
Doc, too

>>81264499
The book is about how there is barely a line between freedom fighting and terrorism because of the amount of blood that is spilled. Even in the most just of causes, the violence leads to nihilism because we are not biologically wired to handle so much senseless killing.

>>81273149
I think that, there are a lot of ways that this could end and not all of them will legitimize that take.

>>81260616
>They know not what they do.
King sure knows how to drop a final line

>>81260781
it's not over yet, anon

>>81274064
I'll tell you this, if I ever fought for a cause that I believed in with all my heart, I know years down the line I'd be haunted with guilt because of the means it took to justify such actions.

they kept saying that they needed kyle's ring, but they blew up the planet without it, did they really just want kyle to fight for them?

>>81265429
yes this is it. She represents love. Remember the last issue
.>>81255758

>>81274182
