Squadron supreme is crap
New Avengers is the crazy book. Not worth the time. Avengers books havent been so hot since Secret Wars. Bar ultimates.
That 0 issue might be worth it just for this lovely moment.

There is ton of her being chained up
Also, she offers Steve Trevor a Bondage Collar
Basically Morrison wasn't joking when he said he was going way into Marston and the character

The Fix is like an R-rated Superior Foes. Fucking great comic.

Good art. Good ideas. WHAT ELSE IS THERE?!
Maybe having characters that aren't doing nothing?

Pls. Carol is already planning that next Civil War. But Galactus sees through her. He's going to stop her with a powerbomb through the fabric of the universe. Then Ms. America will finish her off with a Randy Savage elbow drop. This comic practically writes itself.
ANAD time
ANAD Point One #1 - Glorified ad for Contest of Champions and a bunch other anad books (Carnage, Agents of Shield, DD, Rocket & Groot, All New Inhumans), it was ok for what it was I guess. I would have been excited about DD from the little snippet here with Blindspot, too bad it didnt pan out.
ANAD Avengers #0 - Another glorified ad, but this time its for all the new Avengers books so its much more interesting. Ultimates looks great (amazing art and dat America Chavez), ANAD Avengers looks cool with crazy Vision, New Avengers art is all I wxpected from my boy Sandoval, Uncanny's art is as bad as I feared but I liked the short story with Deadpool, the only part I didnt care much for was Squadron Supreme but that was expected :/
Man these 50 page books kinda drain you dont they.

That Vision story is the most interesting thing that has happened in ANAD Avengers sadly.
What about Cap and Thor sitting in a tree k-i-s-s-i-n-g?
Even that was lackluster. I was disappointed.
Meh, it feels so incredibly forced and pointless.
That and Vision were the standouts early on. Also Iron Man has been really good so far.
Edit: Btw Vision stays awesome as does Strange. Great books.

Saw BvS today, you can read my review in the spoiler thread if you're interested in reading my thoughts. Here's the non-spoiler version: I liked it more than MoS, but since I didn't like MoS at all that's not saying much. Movie's got problems from top to bottom.
Also: I'm working on a thread, it's going to be a lengthy one and I want to get it right so I'm a long ways off from completing it which means you're a long ways off from seeing it. However, seeing BvS today helped reinforce for me the idea that something is wrong with Wonder Woman, or that the wrong ideas have "won" when it comes to Wonder Woman, and if you read my review you can probably guess what that's all about and get a glimpse of what the thread will be.

Black Widow #2 was also good comics.
Really enjoying how this book has a grittier feel to the art versus Daredevil. The use of cross-hatching is great.

yeah like nothing is weird or interesting in it, it's just forgettable
you might be right, because the art in Faith is what puts me off it. Like it goes from gorgeous Marguerite Sauvage openings to... that. Thankfully Pere Perez is drawing the ongoing, i like him okay. Drew some issues of BQM Batgirl, one of my favs
that last page is amazing
So you're saying that Waid's Avengers isn't very good? This makes me really sad. I loved his Fantastic Four back in the day.
Can't wait to read this in four months via MU.

Invincible Ironman #1 - damn this was actually really good. I mean you guys said it was good but its the Bendis so you never know but man, super fun book. Art is amazing, writting is super snappy, using Masque and Doom has me intrigued, hell of a first impression. And I dont even particulary like Ironman.
Amazing Spider-Man #1 - And its a hat-trick on excellent ANAD books, this was fantastic. My favorite Spider-Man artist, Mockingbird, Spider Mobile, Doc Ock loomimg, new angle with Parker Industries, great stuff. The short stories serving as ads for the rest of the spider books were ok-ish, nothing much changed from pre-ANAD. Im super psyched for Silk and Spider Woman as I was before, im so-so on Spidey 2099 as I was before, and I dont particulary care for Spider Warriors or Miles. Or Gwen even if that wasnt in the book.
And now, back to Secret Wars stuff... kind of a bummer actually lol

I like them because they don't have any words.
Yeah I really like it. Lots of fun characters.
I need to read those two issues soon, i'm currently in the Secret Wars mini-phase and i might want out?
still reading:
Weirdworld
Civil War
Thors
finished:
Masters of Kung Fu
Old Man Logan - bought monthly
Marvel Zombies - bought monthly
Spiderverse
Siege
So, what are the top priorities out of these? I feel like if i read them all i might burn comics to the ground?
Deadpools Secret Secret Wars - after i read more of Duggan's run
Planet Hulk
SW: Battleworld
Ultimate End
Infinity Gauntlet
Inhumans: Attilan Rising
MODOK Assassin
Secret Wars Journal
Where Monsters Dwell
Amazing Spider Vows
Armor Wars
Future Imperfect
X-tinction Agenda
Years of Future Past

Mrs. Deadpool and the howling commandos
Runaways
Squadron Sinister

1872
Age of Apocalypse - i still need to read the first event
Guardians of Knowwhere
Captain Britain and the mighty defenders - i never even heard of this one
Howard the Human
Hail Hydra
House of M
Hank Johnson agent of hydra
Honestly i got five into that list and decided to finish typing the whole thing out stubbornness while scrolling through my MU library. Why would someone allow so many comics to exist?

Just my opinion, but I would narrow it down to these.
Secret Wars #6 - Kinda...boring actually :/ A lot of setup for the end battle but nothing much happens besides
. Not sure if its SW burn out or it was just a boring issue, but it did nothing for me. Even Ribic's art seemed lazy.
Also it doesnt help that some events are obviously from tie ins I havent read yet, but that one's one me
Edit: events like in
Siege #4, where Thanos is captured (well surrenders) to have his little chat with Ben Grimm that you see a bit of in SW #6. Great ending to one of the best tie ins of the event, as The Shield falls to the horde but its clobbering time for good old Ben.
T'challa getting a infinity gauntlet

Deadpool was fun, especially if you are knowledgable about the original Secret Wars and I also enjoyed Renew Your Vows.

Infinity Gauntlet, Inhumans, and Squadron Sinister are probably the three best IMO. I also loved The Runaways and AoA (Blink!).

Soooo many new Image books, why can't the ones I'm already reading wrap up so I can read these new ones.
chew is ending soon. I think there a couple that will end soon as well.
kirkman won't end his shit. when the main characters die he will just make someone else the main character.

The beauty of the Image system is that you can follow a shitload of different titles but because of hiatuses you are never buying them all in the same month. I'm up to 34 or 35 titles now but this month only 18 of them are coming out. Last month it was only 14.

How is Batman Eternal? Been reading lots of Scott Snyder's run recently and wondered if it's worth picking up if I'm enjoying it.

Watched Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox. It was solid. Good animation and fights, but it could have been longer to world build a bit more. Pretty mid-tier. Also fuck Barry Allen
