Loved the first issue of Before Watchmen, so I went ahead and ordered the 2nd one. I'll probably order the 3rd in a few days too. -dances around- :D

Kinda weird that you're saying the third issue since only number 1's have been coming out. There's 7 different comics in Before Watchmen. Everyweek is one issue from one of the comics. This weeks was Comedian, next week is NiteOwl. Issue 2 of Minutemen isnt coming out till 5 weeks from now.

Minutemen 6 Issues
Silk Spectre 4 Issues
The Comedian 6 Issues
Nite Owl 4 Issues
Ozymandias 6 Issues
Roschach 4 Issues
Dr.Manhatten 4 Issues

Minutemen was great! Think the writer did a great job introducing the characters.

Silk Spectre isnt dark at all BUT it does a great job showing the mom and daughter relationship with Sally and Laurie and how the original Silk Spectre is trying to move on from her dark past. Nice to see a watchmen story that isnt dark or gritty. Makes the world feel believable.

The Comedian was a bit of a disappointment. He didn't feel like the comedian, they didnt make him a giant douche except in 2 scenes but it is the first issue to his arc so ill wait for the other 5 comics to see where this character is going.

I know what you mean, I just meant 2nd and 3rd issue as in..2nd and 3rd books to come out.

And yeah I can forgive any flaws that might be in these #1's of each character simply because they are introductions. I'm sure things will pick up.

Ordered my new Phone nearly 2 weeks ago, turned up the next day!! (pleased with that as i ordered it at 3Pm wednesday & it arrived 10am the next day)

I was torn between the HTC One X & the Samsung Galaxy S3, in the end i went for....

It really is a beautiful phone, its big (screen is bigger than my old Desire Z altogether) the battery life is pretty good for a modern phone and the screen is amazing for watching YT while lazing about

And a bargain aswell at £31 a month for the phone for free, 600 mins, ltd texts, 500mb of data, and £31 cashback every 3 months, chuffed to snap it up at that price :D

Nice, I do like the look of the S3. I've got the original Galaxy S and it's a delightful little phone; I might upgrade to the S3 when I'm eligible. (Or the S4 which might be around by the time I'm eligible)
