Also, just picked up AvX #1 and managed to get the variant Wolvy/Cap cover. Pretty pumped.
|
Does the digital subscription include the non-616 and non-ultimate stuff like Criminal? Marvel and DC have a lot of amazing books that are not related to their main shit. A lot of them aren't even hero/villain shit at all.
|
It's a work in progress and there's a missing series and even gaps in some series but it seems like they're probably going to release alot of the non-superhero stuff. They have some of the Ozma of Oz stuff and Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz stuff. Not seeing Criminal. For the most part, it seems to be the Superhero content, but it at least seems like they're trying to make an effort to include the other stuff.

I basically pirate everything, and if there is a book I like, I buy the trades.

Captain America 2 - April 4th 2014
|
No director yet?
I need some more substance in the sequel. |
There is a list, I'll post it if it isn't here by the time I'm back.
|
I hope Bucky comes back.
|
He's not dead. Read Winter Solider #1.
|
I meant in the movie sequel.
|
Oh ok, yeah. I hope he's the Winter Solider by the end or in it..

AvX #1 was alright, might get pick up issue 2 and if it's good might wait for the trade for a cheap price on amazon.
|
Loved the final panel.
|
|
Sales?
|
There are a million ways they could have put these two teams at odds. Sales doesn't factor into it.
|
Contradictory message aside, it is a likely scenario. Phoenix is a problem (especially with 5 bars), and the only odd thing is that the Avengers didn't take initiative beforehand.
|
Yeah, that's the other thing. Between Rachel and Jean the potential for another phoenix catastrophe has existed for years, and NOW the Avengers are interested.
It's like the WWE creative team wrote this. Fucking phoenix. Such a tired concept anyway. |
I miss her. It. Whatever it is.
|
TRUE STORY
Never cared that much for the whole Dark Phoenix Saga. Can't really explain why. Maybe because I never really cared for Jean Grey, so a really long storyline focused around her just didn't really interest me? I dunno. |
I did like the way Grant Morrison wrote Jean Grey, though. She had a strength, and a subtley wicked edge to her, that was different from previous takes on the character. Made her more interesting to me.
|
Endsong was alright.
|
Thoughts on this? Lazy writing or something legit?

lol
People literally blaming the character of wolverine, instead of bad writers. |
Bad writing sounds about right . Who wrote it anyway?

The reason for them being interested NOW over before is because of the Cable situation in XSanction. |
Having just read up on Children's Crusade, sounds like retcon central. Really hate when that happens.
|
The Phoenix has killed billions.
Going after the witch was also as much about what she could do as it was about what she did do. Both Jean and Wanda were driven mad by an outside force. Both committed atrocities while under the influence of said force. |
This has actually been a problem at marvel for a while now.
I remember when the current volume of Avengers started. I was excited because I wanted to see how the Thor/Iron Man relationship would play out. After all, last time they met, Thor made it clear that teaming up against the skrulls did not mean they were friends again. And before that, Thor bitch smacked the the red and gold off him. But no. No tension, no rebuilding, they're just buddies again, as if nothing had ever happened between them. Like, what the fuck are they smoking over there, that they think this is not noticeable? |
While I'm on a roll here, let's talk about The Boys. Yeah it's not marvel, but we don't have a third party comics thread, so fuck it. Latest issue came out, and it concludes the main storyline of the book. I assume the last few issues will be epilogue stuff that focuses on where everyone goes from here.
SPOILER: show Fuck off Ennis. |
I've kind of lost track of The Boys. Should really get back to it.
|
Yeah. Kinda stopped after it went to the new publisher. Did not think it was so great anyways. Just Ennis being all "Ennis-y".
|
Lost track pretty early then, since it went to Dynamite after like 6 issues and it's now up into around the 60s.
|
Nah, it went later than that. I remember reading three or four story arcs.
|
Ok, nevermind. Checked my extensive files on the matter. Last issue I read was #18. And it did indeed switch publishers after #6.
|
Yeah, it's a decent book. Ennis is indeed very ennis-y here. Very preachy at times. (no pun intended)
|
Variety reporting that Bin Kingsley is close to being cast as the villain for Iron Man 3. Dunno who he's playing, but reportedly it's not Mandarin.
|
That's Sir Ben Kingsley to you.
