I only bought the Convergence main title, Harley and Nightwing/Oracle. Main title was meh, other 2 were solid.

Got four Convergence tie-ins (Harley, Question, Superman, Nightwing/Oracle) and thought I did pretty well, overall. Harley was my favourite among them. It's definitely
weird to see Harley rehabilitated and then back in the costume over the course of one issue. It's tough to pass any sort of judgement on any of these issues, since they're part 1 of 2. I thought it was a well-delivered tragic moment for Harley to be betrayed by her former partners like that. Maybe a little odd to have that moment in part 1 of 2 of an event tie-in, but still a great concept.

I only bought Harley and Question. Fuck Convergence.
Freeza, let me know what you think about Question.

I think it's unfortunate this is only going to be a two-issue story. Renee,
Huntress AND Batwoman? HHHHNNNNGGGG. Maybe they can even have a threesome at the end. It's a bit weird seeing Two-Face not being a complete dick, though.
Maybe if it sells enough we can get that
totally hot 3 some. I think batwoman would be down for that kinky stuff.

I know Hickman's been building Secret Wars for some time with his run on Avengers, so it makes me wonder if someone from DC had gotten wind of it and that's how Convergence came about.
I mean they're practically the exact same premises.

I guess i should read my spider gwens to see if i should stop buying it.
It's not bad but the story is average. It's the art that completely holds it together so wonderfully.

Howard the Duck #2 was aiight but I liked the first issue a lot more. This one was way too Guardians heavy.
The cover is great though.
Do it.
its a book of the Spider-Family, its a must-buy for me anyway
But I will to have to wait for the Trade. I would buy a Digital Code but Silk #1 doesnt appear on ebay... :/

too be fair an outline isn't the actual story.
EDIT: yeah I shouldn't be saying that stuff here.

Ant-Man continues with another good issue. Love the development we're getting with Scott's new life and Spencer is really channeling his Superior Foes magic to make this book a lot of fun.
The Ant-Van bit was great, and I love how Scott's recruited yet another former villain. I hope that becomes a reoccurring joke.

I would have to think so. Secret Wars is the culmination of his Avengers story and he's said in the past that he was going to take a break from Marvel for awhile following it.

From what I heard he's done with cape books and Marvel.
He's actually just gonna take a break.

He'll probably focus more on creator owned stuff. He can work at his own pace.
This is basically what he meant along with specifically mentioning that he might do a Star Wars or GotG story in a few years.
Who knows though?

Yeah, Hickman's been on record about how tough this has been for him (He writes basically a book a week for Marvel, not even taking into account his own stuff)

Steve's vision with those martian tripods didn't happen.
To bad, was hellbend to see whats the deal with the Tripods, since they were the same Tony Stark saw while he almost lobotomized himself during Fractions Run to save the Civil War datas before Norman Osborn.
But maybe we will see the, during Secret Wars...

While I am happy that All-New Hawkeye is going in a different direction than Fraction's run, I can't say it's for me. The flashbacks continue to do nothing for me and I'm just not feeling it. Shame too, cause Lemire at least seems to get how to do banter between Clint and Kate. I might end up dropping this soon.
Yeah, he'll be more focused on his work at Image. Which is awesome. Still need to read The Dying and the Dead.

IIRC the machines Tony saw were later revealed to be a result of a hypnotic suggestion by the Mandarin and he was forced into building them at the end of Fraction's run. Maybe. It's been a while since I read those issues.
I think Steve's vision from Reborn was originally going to be Fear Itself which was planned to be a Captain America/Thor crossover.

Friends don't let friends
drug them, force them into sexy outfits, and force them to do illegal things.
It sounds fucked up.
I thought so

Actually, Robinson brought back Killraven and the eventuality of a Martian invasion in his Invaders run. This might have been that.

Hickman doing a Star Wars comic would be tasty.

Ultron Forever was real good, thanks for the heads up guys.
I'd buy it.
You guys reading Chrononauts? If not, you should. #1 was a solid issue and I'm looking forward to #2 next week.

^lol as I only buy like a handful of comics each week (digitally) the prices don't bother me much
I'm not into Star Wars either, but if a book is good, a book is good.
Personally I'm more into SW Expanded Universe. Should give Rebels a watch already >_>
