That's why I hate the meme. I think lots of people aren't aware it's a joke. One time he wrote that he enjoyed a recent idolmaster game, and his fans in the west have blamed every single delay on him being an addict since. I can't think of a joke that remains funny for over a decade when told the same way.

I played idolmaster once. Whenever I'm not in this thread for a while, it's probably because I'm addicted to idolmaster.
Like when people blame HxH delays on Togashi playing Dragon Quest?

Do people do that? I'm pretty sure most fans know he has awful health issues.
It was an old meme born from this picture:

And I think a good number of the hiatuses line up with new DQ releases.

Nowadays moreso, but there was a point where it was a bigger meme because a DQ game had just come out and they had found an old pic of him playing OG DQ. When the 2012 anime was nearing it's end it was a much bigger thing. People knew his health was an issue but it was still there.

Everyone knows Johns' comics gets delayed so much because he spends 18 hours a day hunting for obscure cereal brands

Like any time Johns steps on a book, you know you're about to get multiple of something to go to war needing to be united by the main hero. That's how he reboots a mythology.

Green Lantern: The Emotional Spectrum, War of Light, Blackest Night, Hal Jordan Greatest Lantern,

Aquaman: Seven Kingdoms, Arthur Curry, and an unknown event we will never get to see play out

Shazam: Seven Magic Lands, Mr Mind's Monster Society taking over, Billy Batson assuming the throne and ruling all the lands with his family

Honestly Williamson's Flash feels like he's doing Johns karaoke at points.

WTF does Non-Stop even mean, in regards to Spider-man?

Also, is that cover done by Bachalo?

So, does Doomsday Clock get better in the second half?

The first few issues really had that Watchmen feel and it set up a pretty interesting story but then it quickly switched over to the writing not feeling like Watchmen and it it just feeling like an annual issue or something.

I'd expect it to be action oriented with that title. Less down time Peter stuff than usual.

Ya. #10 is brilliant.
I dunno if you're up to it yet, but the Film Noir movie side-plot pays off well.

I'm on the last issue of Harleen and I don't want it to end. I think Sejic is a next level artist/writer and his Harley is extremely likeable and sympathetic. I need the hardcover of Isley like yesterday.
Harleen was surprisingly good. Definitely the best Harley origin I've ever read.
I'm good with more Morning Glories. At least that fucking nonsense is interesting.
Me too. I'd like some resolution. My only real issue with the books is I couldn't tell some characters apart and some are a little too generic looking.
Shit is gonna be the Lost of comic books. No answers for most of the series and then a shit ending.

It gets heavier this fall. Transformers x My Little Pony: Friendship in Disguise.

If only DC was this honest about their Batman publishing habits.

Just realized Phil Noto is doing the interiors of Cable :( He does great covers, but I am not a big fan of his actual interior art.

MTMTE has a huge cast that gets even bigger, but most of them were kinda nobody before Roberts started writing them.

Only SGM would give Joker back his big gun.

I'm so worried for Catwoman with his plotting.

Imagine if Punchline and Joker actually did end up in a relationship with the twist being that Joker is submissive to her.
