I've been holding off for a while, but Marvel characters made me think about picking it up. If they add Star Wars this year though...

I just caught the new Bat vs. Supes trailer.
1) Hire Ben Affleck as your new Batman.
2) He does the same annoying voice as the previous Batman.
3) DC.

Inside Out is more relevant for marketing right now. Easy movie tie-in.
Osborn saying Spider Man insted of Steel Spider or hearing Spider Man when people said something else in Warren Ellis's Thunderbolts is cracking me up, the dude is losing it.
This first arc of this run is amazing, be it the story, writing or the art.

5 figures is a bit excessive though right?

Apparently the movie script was based off of Millar's Ultimate Fantastic Four. I've never read that run, but didn't people like it? It was one of the few Ultimate properties that I've heard genuinely positive things about.
Faith in Monsters 1-6 (Thunderbolts #110-115), the first Warren Ellis arc, was maybe the best first arc I've ever read by anyone. The tension on the showdown between the Thunderbolts and the guys they are hunting is palpable, especially in these last couple of issues when they go after Steel Spider and 2 other unregistered guys get caught in the middle. The stuff with Moonstone, Osborn, Songbird and Bullseye is gold.
Usually it takes a bit for writers to find their stride, but I honestly find it hard to believe Ellis will top this arc off during his run. Hopefully I'm wrong

Done with Waid's first run on Daredevil. Excellent all the way through. It has the perfect mix of fun, action, and drama.

I just re-read Multiversity #1 and man, that might be one of my favorite Grant Morrison single issue comics ever. It really helped to go back and read that issue as it made the other issues really stand out. I'm so hyped for the conclusion now.
I dunno, the one time I posted here that I bought the whole Run for little money everybody was sorry for what I spend that money.
I think it was ok. A couple of boring arcs but some good ones.

Only reason I ask is because next to Ultimate Spider-Man, it's the only Ultimate book that's gotten any real positive reception around these parts

Yeah, I didn't want to rain on your parade after your earlier post but it's only 2 arcs.
You might want to try Dark Avengers afterwards though.

Ellis's Thunderbolts is so fucking good, damn.
Edit: holy shit lol
Dat smirk
Edit: Noooooooooooo Ellis's run is just 12 issues? Fuck!
Yup, if you want more 12 issue Ellis goodness, check out Nextwave.
I got the Ellis Thunderbolts TPB, really good run with great character interaction and Deodato's art is freakin' good.
Also Gobby's moments are fucking ace, as well as Norman's rant before putting on the suit.
My man JC, IIRC, also pointed out something interesting; re-read the panels as Norman is putting on the Goblin suit-
Best I could find atm, but notice how on the left the panels are angeled, but on the right, after Norman wears the suit, the panels are straight.

I sorta liked Bendis' Dark Avengers, but fyi Nextwave and Thunderbolts were both being written within the same year, so you had 2 books by the SAME author yet different themes and settings.

I just meant it's a direct sequel to that Ellis Thunderbolts, has Deodato too and there are some great Norman moments in there.
He even managed to finish Planetary in the same time period.
I'll probably read it one day in one of my insane event benders when I read secret invasion or dark reign or whatever the fuck it was.

Both lol. And even Siege towards the end.
That's the suckiest part: being entirely dependent on events, though Dark Reign was more a status quo than an event.

Explain this panel, because that looks brutal
She kicks him in the nuts and it doesn't phase him because he's Doc Samson and he has Hulk-like powers...everywhere aparently
Super late to reply to this, but I'm pretty sure you meant to say Hobgoblin.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuck.
Day one for Quorra and a few others. Love that Disney hasn't forgotten about Quorra.

What are some good Avengers stories that heavily feature Carol Danvers? I want to read more of her stuff but don't know where to look.

IMHO Samson and Speedball just chillaxing and watching TV was the highlight of that arc.

It's a different voice, tho.
My reading list keeps getting bigger, lol. This is how you all develop untenable backlogs, isn't it? First you read one thing, then you go "huh, what's up with that," then you have to read another thing to understand that, and then it repeats until the heat death of the universe.
? It's nothing like Bale's Bats voice.

Batman v Superman, Mech Suit Batman with voice Modulation is awesome. Those eyes are also comic glowtastic.
Yeah. It's nothing like it.

Wat.
The scene where Bats asks Superman if he doesn't bleed...sounds almost exactly the same. It's a bit more garbled and robotic, but it has the same pitch, enunciation, and growl. It's a voice I've never associated with Batman prior to Bale putting on the cape.
Glad I was not the only one. I thought it looked cool.

Honestly, Ben Affleck looks amazing as Batman. Too bad it has to be a Zack Snyder production.

If it's the complete collection, it's 26 bucks on Amazon and 20 digitally. This run is really great so I'd say go for it. There's some beautiful art in there.
did you try jumping and then kicking though this is essential MK strats
it sounds like modulation, so maybe a bit of the growl? hard to say. 'pitch and enunciation'? Don't really see it. Even with the modulation the voice is cleaner and smoother than what Bale was doing (especially by Rises). When I saw the trailer it seemed a pretty distinct difference to me.
