I had to read ASM RYV #4 twice cuz I had to get over the overbearingness of MJ. Still, it's another good issue by Slott.

But in a surprising turn of opinion, 1872 is my book of the week. The last issue was a little underwhelming that I didn't even have it in my Top 5. But this issue turned it around.

But I legit lol'd because

Spoiler

Natasha said she was a "Widow"

. That shit was hilarious.

 

[Manmademan]

So any idea who that was popping up at the end of Guardians of Knowhere?

I think that's proxima midnight, but hard to say because the outfit looks off.

In other news, I can't get over how great weirdworld is. I can't believe they dug crystar out of whatever IP grave he's been moldering in for 30 years.

Yo this book is so dope I can't believe this is going to be an ongoing thing in ANAD Marvel. What a time to be alive.

Also if you're not reading Captain Britain you are fucking up!

That is what I was thinking too but yeah the new look threw me off.

The new one turned me around, first issue was pathetic imo.

I really do read Ewing's Avengers (or Defenders) as self important snobs though.

 

[Busaiku]

Wait, Weirdworld is getting an ongoing?

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Did it make it worth having to read all the previous ishs? Because the first one was.... not good at all.

I think so. I actually liked the first issue too. Sure it was a slow start but after it got going it's been interesting. Without a doubt I'd read them all. I'm kind of interested to see where they go as they finish this series.

Yep Praise Doom.

Cmon Psych no love for Prowler?

Pretty sure, I know the new Black Knight book is also set in Weirdworld.

 

[Brian Fellows]

Don't think anything has been announced at this point. I'm still hoping for a Runaways on-going myself so hopefully we both get the announcements we want soon.

EDIT: or maybe it is lol

 

[PsychBat!]

Yeah, he was inoffensive to me. He's alright.

I thought it was but I might be mistaken. It might have just been the Black Knight series.

Agreed. Weirdworld getting an ongoing is shocking as hell, but I'm glad it's happening. They need to keep the artist on it though or it won't be the same.

I'm reading everything son, think of who you're talking to

weirdworld will continue past secret wars, with Dane whitman as the protag.

 

[Tendo]

Are the following books worth reading?

Guardians of Knowhere
Armor Wars
X-tinction Agenda
Spiderverse

 

[Squire]

Yeah, Weirdworld was in the back of the ANAD preview book along with A-Force, Old Man Logan, and probably something I'm forgetting as books that would go past Secret Wars.

 

[PsychBat!]

Armor Wars
X-tinction Agenda
Spiderverse

The middle two you listed are so dull. I dropped Armor Wars because of that stinker of a first issue. X-tinction Agenda has a 90s event vibe that is hard to overlook.

The first and the latter books are actually not bad.

the only thing that's clearly NOT worth following is Ultimate End. everything else is worth the read.

I agree 100%

 

[PsychBat!]

I agree 100%

I would go in to more detail, but I am so lazy.

 

[Tendo]

I'm pulling literally every secret wars book except those 4 and Ultimate End.

You can see that Ultimate End didn't make the maybe list haha. What an absolute garbage waste of a cool idea.

 

[Mudcrab]

Loki was great again. Nice shout-out to Silver Surfer too.

I'm reading everything son, think of who you're talking to

It was more of a general you. I know you're reading everything in case more New Universe characters show up somewhere.

 

[Dalek]

Guardians of Knowhere

These are all pretty boring.

1872 on the other hand is great.

nah Spider-Verse is great

Thats a touch outdated, isnt it?

Still helpful to newbies

 

[Dalek]

These waits between the main issues are starting to wear on me. I'm liking the various spinoff books but the real meat is in the main story.

I'll deal with it. AXIS came out every week.

The catch being that it was AXIS.

 

[Manmademan]

it's up to date with the exception of three individuals, who JUST got deposed or dealt with in the last week or so. seeing as how those events are huge spoilers for their associated books, I'd give it a pass.

one book got spoiled though, so they arent all that concerned about spoilers.

master of kung fu, right? yeah that one was a bit odd.

No wonder I didn't notice. I skipped over that one.

 

[Manmademan]

No wonder I didn't notice. I skipped over that one.

that one is actually pretty good. the finale is a bit weak, but the first few books are good reading. I'm hoping they keep this version of shang chi around.

I'm sure it's good. I just don't like anything Kung Fu related.

Neither do comic stores, apparently (like the 2nd lowest selling title).

Secret Wars delayed again.

Secret Wars #6 was originally solicited for the beginning of August. Then it slipped to the beginning of September. Now it is scheduled for the 16th September.

Secret Wars #7 is scheduled for 23rd of September. With Secret Wars #8 scheduled for the 7th October, the same day as the first All-New All-Different Marvel titles ship.

 

[PsychBat!]

Secret Wars delayed again.

welp, I'm kind of used to this now.

SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT

 

[kswiston]

This Week's Books

Ant-Man Last Days #1
Captain Marvel and the Carol Corps #3
Civil War #3
Deadpool's Secret Secret Wars #4
E is for Extinction #3
Hank Johnson: Agent of HYDRA #1
Magneto #21
Marvel Zombies #3
MODOK Assassin #4
Old Man Logan #4
Spider-Woman #10
X-Men 92 #3


I guess 3 weeks before Secret Wars issues was too good to be true. I wonder if they will be able to hold to the schedule for the last 2 issues.

 

[Sinatar]

At this rate All New, All Different will launch before Secret Wars ends.

 

[Brian Fellows]

I'm more interested in the tie-ins than the main story anyway.


Small week for me.....

Civil War #3
Deadpool's Secret Secret Wars #4
Marvel Zombies #3

 

[Squire]

Ribic's good, but at this rate, I really think they could've just alternated artists.

It's a lot of material too. I think #6 is like 50+ pages or something.

 

[Sadist]

 

[Menome]

Captain Ameribug is probably the damned cutest thing I've seen in a long time.

As it sounds like Weirdworld is getting an on-running series, I hope it remains somewhat cut-off from the rest of the Marvel Universe. It doesn't need other characters finding themselves there and going "Woah, what is this weird place?" in a crossover.

 

[rakhir]

I really damn hope they won't delay Secret Wars any further, it's bad enough.
Last Secret Wars and new ANAD titles at the same day will be a clusterfuck, especially since we will get previews about them both at the same time, right?

They should delay ANAD at least one week, but i know that's financially impossible.

 

[Mudcrab]

Secret Wars is now 9 issues. #9 is slated for December.

 

[Dalek]

wow!

 

[Gartooth]

Secret Wars is now 9 issues. #9 is slated for December.

Well shit. Guess we can assume 7 and 8 are also being delayed?

 

[Sinatar]

Secret Wars is now 9 issues. #9 is slated for December.

Huh.

Ok then.

 

[PsychBat!]

The wait is already torturous.
