Reading Azzarello's interviews for Wonder Woman is fun cause it's always just him saying, "Give me some time to work here, brahs. I got this."
I feel like someone is going to die in Spidey 700. Not Spidey, and probably not Alpha, but someone. Beyond that, no idea what Dan could be plotting. It worries me a little.
Slott has also said that he can't believe no one has done this before with Spider-Man. I really hope this isn't going to be a Spidey version of Knightfall/End/Quest with Alpha being the Jean-Paul character. I also hope that MJ doesn't die.One of the big reasons they did OMD was so they can put the rabbit back in the hat with the secret identity. They're not gonna reveal that again; it closes off more stories then it opens, and that's the death of serial storytelling. Plus, I never liked the idea of EVERYBODY knowing Peter is Spidey. It makes Peter Parker a world (in)famous celebrity, which is completely against the "mostly regular guy who could be you" idea of the character.

Those Greg Tocchini issues of UXF is the run's nadir, I think most people will agree. So glad that shit is over and done with.
Check out Batman Inc. I don't feel it's better than WW or Batman but it's up there among the best of DC right now. I agree with you though that the New 52 has been mediocre lately. I remember how excited I was to pick up Animal Man for the first several months but now it's like "meh".
The minute? Gross misrepresentation. He started off trying to save the remnants of the mutant race.
Also, read New X-Men and then let me know if Emma Frost hasn't evolved since she was in the Hellfire Club.
I really want to get back into Spidey but I just don't have the heart because I know eventually Marvel is going to shit down his throat again.

Reading #691, my certainty is only increasing that Spider-Man will kill someone.
If he legit kills someone it better not be sum ticky tack villain like Stitlted man. Kill a member of the Sinister Six and never return. Don't want ti to be like Silver Sable recently where Madamme Webb was like "lol brah, she still alife"
Damn I need to order more DMZ and Northlanders next week. Brah is awesome. May even look into buying now. Does DMZ eventually have an over arching plot or is it more anthology like Northlanders?

when did that happen?
Don't sleep on Supermarket, braj.
What's that?
An indy wesbites need to get their shit together. Lookin' at Avatar press see what series they got besides Crossed and it looks like Geocities. Brahs don't want my business.
Brian Azzerello's Wonder Woman run is probably the most interesting thing ever done with the character IMO.
I still like Rucka's run and take on the character more, but its been the best since Rucka
The only problem with Rucka's run was that it was cut too short (Thanks, Infinite Crisis!), so some plot threads were just left hanging. Other than that, best take on the character.
I'd be up for a Gillen Young Avengers with kid loki in there.
Also, read Batman and Robin 9-11 in my initiative to read comics: Fairly good, reminds me of the quicker moving short stories that followed Morrison leaving the title before the relaunch.
Young Avengers can't be written by another writer than Allan Heinburg, he has a deal with marvel that says so
Young Avengers can't be written by another writer than Allan Heinburg, he has a deal with marvel that says so
Except they've been written by multiple other people
Like who? They may have appeared in other books (I believe they made a cameo in civil war) but they can't do a young avengers book without Heinburg
Edit: this statement needed some kinda source
http://ifanboy.com/articles/damn-you-heinberg-give-me-more-young-avengers
I guess it's more of an agreement with Heinburg at the very least, but it's possible they put it in his contract

Zeb Wells wrote the YA/Runaways Civil War mini. Chris Yost wrote the SI one. Paul Cornell wrote YA: Dark Reign. And the characters have appeared all over the place
First off : Some of those event tie ins featured different characters, NOT the ones Heinburg created
second, you should read the link, did u ever wonder why there was such a large gap between volumes one and two? No one is allowed to write that main series other than Heinburg
Looks fantastic. Definitely backing that.
Which is funny considering he totally ruined them in that shitty Children's Crusade mini. Marvel needs to cut ties and get this team going already. Waiting for Heinburg while they become more and more irrelevant by the day... smh.

after reading all the praise it gets around here, I've decided to start reading BPRD. I never really knew what the series was about, but looking into it, it seems like something I should have been reading all along. If I had known it was all about all types of different paranormal/Lovecraftian stuff I would have probably got on it sooner
I've never read Hellboy either so i'll probably start with that up to the part where BPRD splits off. I already got the first BPRD hardcover collection and tried to read Hollow Earth, but I just feel like I should go back and catch up to get the full story since I feel like i've missed out on too much stuff. Gonna look for some of the collections tomorrow and start getting into it
No, the article says nothing of the kind. It was Marvel's decision not to resume YA as an ongoing series until Heinberg and Cheung could return in some capacity. They did, and now that Children's Crusade is over, the way is presumably clear.
Yet the YA are in all of them. Like the whole team.
And because Heinberg, a slow writer, teamed up with a slow artist. Seriously, Jim Cheung is slow, but man does he draw a pretty Magneto
Its good if you like teenage angst books.Today's Marvel sale on Comixology is Avengers Academy and Secret Avengers. I picked up 6-8 of SA. I don't know if Avengers Academy is any good.
From the wiki (LINK):
The 2009 Dark Reign: Young Avengers limited series written by Paul Cornell, and Mark Brooks,introduces a new group of powered teens calling themselves the Young Avengers.
The point is this: I originally responded to someone saying that it would be cool if Kieron Gillen wrote the Young Avengers series, which I pointed out was unlikely to happen since it appears that Heinburg has a lock and key on the characters
