MrOde very good point! I'd pay extra for express overnight shipping.
HaseoVII SAME regarding FF7Rebirth (best believe I preordered Revelation though
)
I am such a huge fan of Nexus Hub - no one else in SA imports the niche titles - I used to need to get my stuff from Amazon Japan/US

I'm not looking to start a bad thread about this, I was really just curious because I misclicked the tab on the left and stumbled upon the poll (I'd never clicked it before).
I am fiercely brand loyal to Nexus Hub and I don't care too much about not getting a game day-1. I know other names like BT and Koodoo ship earlier so you get it on release, but I'd never be "that" excited that I must play day-1, life happens
On the other hand, paying an extra R150 every time you order a commercially available title does add up, and I would not blame the average consumer for trying to save some money.
I know I'd feel less off about it if there was a price match, and free delivery at a certain threshold.

Locke & Key vol 2
Another key is found, and you learn more about the main antagonist Dodge.
Seriously, if this isn't on your shelf, you are missing out.
Black Hole by Charles Burns
A one shot story, it wasn't bad but I couldn't help but be somewhat disappointed. Throughout the book I just couldn't help thinking of Uzumaki though, which dulled the experience a bit. Good overall story and strong ending at least.

Injustice Gods Among Us.
On issue 6, pretty good so far!
Missing issue 2 though…
Found Hitman issue 1!!! 2 & 3 also came with it!!
Get your paws on Hitman dude, one of the best series out there and Ennis got a chance to finish it his way, very rare.
reading IDW's Sherlock Year One, very good book, better than I expected.

Locke & Key 3: Crown of Shadows
MOAR keys! Plus you find out MOAR about Dodge (really can't say anything without spoiling it), and some other amazing stuff happens at Keyhouse.
And then they find something at the end that made my hair stand on end.
It's thrilling, the dialog is sharp, I love every character, and the art still amazes O_O

Locke & Key 4: Keys to the Kingdom
Holy $&*! Dodge! Bode! So many more keys! It's torture waiting for the final volume T_T
Spider-Men
Loooooooved this. Peter interacting with Miles was fantastic. The moments between Peter and his Ultimate family were magnificent. Dialog was great with chuckles aplenty.
Amazing art, Sarah Pichelli is definitely one of the best artists working today.
Great book overall. About my only complaint is that the way Peter travels between worlds is used solely as a throwaway plot device (along with one possible mistake that I need to double check), and they leave some blatant cliffhangers for a possible (likely?) sequel.

Megatokyo! It is just a awesome story and I love the art style.
I just finished reading chapter 10. This is just so good. When I can get the actual physical copies of this, I'm buying it on the spot.

Preacher vol 1.
Been sitting on my shelf for ages, so decided to get into it this week. Not bad, compelling characters for the moment, and the story is certainly great fun to get into. You definitely get a sense that it's a bit dated, what with the level of profanity and adult content that it deals with, not that it feels gratuitous, but it just loses some of its impact since, while ground breaking in 1995, today it just feels run-of-the-mill.
I'm a huge fan of Ennis, and I definitely consider it required reading for any comic book fan.
Animal Man vol 1 New 52
Loved this quite a bit. I've never read any Animal Man so this was my first foray into it. Got it after hearing such great reviews (same reason why I picked up the Morrison run omni), and glad to report that it is fantastic.
Focuses more on the horror aspect than on the family dynamic at the start, skipping any sort of character building and just getting straight into the action which does feel a little jarring, but the story grabs you by the neck and the art keeps you hooked to each page.
I really can't say enough about the art, best way I can think of describing it is nightmarish. Love it.
ASM: BND vol 1
I quite enjoyed this, it definitely feels like the start of a more natural Spidey story than JMS' run (even though I liked the totem arc and certain elements in it). Art isn't bad though I can't stand how certain artists draw such pronounced lips on characters, just a pet peeve.
It's Spider-Man, by default I'll enjoy it
