I've read Point One and Iron Man, there's some interesting stuff I'm looking forward to, but unsurprisingly it looks as All New All Different as every status quo change we've had every two years. That reboot LOL.
I'm really curious to see how Secret Wars ends, beyond "good guys win and the multiverse is restored", particularly in light of Iron Man #1.

It's nowhere near as good as Mad's current art too
No, they didn't. Fox doesn't need the help.
Only fools said it was going to be a reboot.
A certain fool on this forum comes to mind.

Everything in comics is in continuity until it's not. They've been reintroduced as #1s because they're meant to be jumping-on points, even if there's some dangling bits of backstory
No better time to hop onto a series that looks good than now
(Except when they'll be rebooted as another #1 in a couple years or sooner)
That's essentially what I was asking.
People ragged on DC's new 52, and rightfully so because a lot of their books were flat out bad for a long time (which I don't feel is the case now), but I was literally the exact sort of person they wanted because the new 52 is what made me a comics reader. Hopefully, the same process will happen with Marvel.

This is the time to jump in. You shouldn't have to read any previous stuff for these titles.
Btw guys, Squirrel Girl is coming back omg
Uncanny X-men is about looking for Cylops so its #Cyclopsismissing as a plot point and not just because hes not in any book
like Gambit

Just read Amazing Spider-Man, I'm feeling Amazing too much as the setting didn't really do it for me. Still there's a couple of interesting things
And yeah, the art didn't do it for me. It's not on Ramos levels but it's a style I don't like very much.
OTOH, the previews made me want to check WebWarriors and Spider-Woman.
Scorcher as a Spidey stand in isn't a bad idea but the jokes were embarrassing. Regent making it from Renew Your Vows has me interested, as I actually liked Renew.
I didn't care for Robot Ock though.

Of course. I'm just petty enough to rub it in.

It magically grows when she turns since she's bald from her cancer.
Bet you feel like shit now for that little quip dont you Voli
Not in this relaunch no. Thing is off in space in the Guardians of the Galaxy book and Human Torch is porking Medusa in Inhumans. Reed and Sue seem to be MIA after Secret Wars
Explain to me what happened for torch to be porking medusa.

He's missing in action. He's probably got plans. Old rumors had the X-Men being shunted off to a new planet. Seems possible with this new status quo.
Has that been confirmed?> Haven't found anything about it in interviews.
Black Bolt was running around with his Illuminati bros and tried to come back home.
Medusa wasn't having it.
Redheads
Also Blackbolt fucked a horse. I bet Meduasa wasnt happy about it.
Pretty sure I read thats the focus of the team

Makes sense now. I just started with marvel and the inhumans book in secret wars made me think they cannon right now.

I love how all this is post-SW and SW isn't even fucking done yet.
Keep up the great marketing decisions, Comics.
Slott has always been a good idea man, but the last volume has full of bad execution. Hopefully he can go back to quality of his first run and this first issue was a good start in my eyes.
I'm expecting '92 to be a big seller.
This is due to delays for whatever reason. This doesn't seem to be affecting Marvel's marketing though lol.

Dum-Dum Dugan is back, even if he is still an LMD 
Its hard to say when we don't know how Secret Wars ends, but I think it will be hard to go unspoiled until December, especially with the teases Alonso and Bendis have been making about a second ongoing based on the spoiler.

If you're reading the All-New, All-Different Marvel titles, you aren't going unspoiled for long.
The Iron Man one is a pretty big indicator of the new status quo, but it doesn't directly out the Secret Wars ending any more than a new Amazing Spider-Man or Dr. Strange title does. Which is to say,
most of the Marvel Universe has returned intact with a few stowaways.
Hell, Old Man Logan #5 (the ending of that mini) jumps straight from before the end of Secret Wars to post-Secret Wars.

To be fair, SW was supposed to be over or reaching its end by now. The SW delays put them in a position where I don't really see what they could have done, with most SW tie-ins being over, they couldn't really stop releasing books for months.
It's a pretty big spoiler but it doesn't really inform how things will go down. As an avid Secret Wars reader, it made me go "oh shit" but honestly, I don't mind that much considering anything can still happen in SW.
I mean, the universe is still splintered to hell in SW and yet we know that on the other side of this, we'll essentially be back to 616, so there's going to be a massive deus ex machina at some point.
Yeah, OML made me scratch my head a bit. Bendis resolved it by jumping over the SW ending. Seeing his Ultimate End version of 616 reminded me we still need a conclusion to his Uncanny X-Men run, I don't get why #600 has been delayed so much or how it would be dependent on Secret Wars.

And this is my jumping off point into comics.
I just read Avengers #0 and caught a spoiler, so I might as well go all in on these titles I'm interested in. I have so many books in my backlog to catch up on, too. Still need to finish Bendis' run across the Avengers books, I had made it up to Dark Reign and skipped ahead to the Hickman stuff to scratch my Secret Wars itch.

I'm starting to think that Bendis doesn't really exist, it's just a pen-name Marvel gives to their favorite intern that year

Definitely. Regardless of continuity shenanigans, a good story is a good story and this was one. Sorrentino's gorgeous pages helped a lot with that emotional impact though. He's probably my favorite current Marvel artist.
I think there's a pattern to his writing. Essentially, he's better with street level and single characters.
Kitty isn't on the All-New X-Men team.
I actually met the guy and shook his hand. Are you telling me I shook hands with some kind of phantom?

If you weren't down with Al Ewing's Mighty Avengers, that would probably seem odd.
Great book though.
What a useless event this was. Basically just made me wait for a few months without reading my favourite comics while coming back to about the same thing.
I'll be reading:
(Ultimate) Spider-man
Ms. Marvel
Ant-man (Odd that the cover seems so serious)
Maybe Squirrel-girl? I love Ryan North's Dinosaur Comics but I couldn't get into Squirrel-girl because of the art and the humour was a bit too much.
Maybe Guardians. Is this by the good Bendis?
Shame about Miles & Kamala being in the Avengers. I'd rather they keep them separate and just let them do their own shit for a while. These poor newcomers can't spend three issues without a crossover.

There definitely are some Bendis-specific reoccurring tropes, but damn his writing swings so far from one direction to the next quality-wise. Maybe I notice it more with him than other writers because he's so high-profile
Your words, not mine
He was really nice, the couple times I met him back in the day. Really swell dude. He remembered me, too.

Can anyone sums up what happened in Marvel's last year or so?
All Universes in Marvel got fused together and now there is a sort of reboot and everything will be defused after for another reboot?
