Trees #1 - I thought the series was about trees taking over the earth The Happening style, but that was not the case. Ellis does some good immediate world building but I don't think he bridged the gap between
well. For a first issue that is supposed to grab you, that was not a very good way to end an issue either it just sort of withered out. I'm not sure if i'll get the first trade or not based off this issue. Random 7/10.

Well so far, every character is interesting. Even the throw away characters have something to offer. Nothing in the story has been throw away or filler. So far, it's a very addicting read. Lots of mystery, lots of tension, great action. Story implements lots of real world things like bands and literature to immers you in the story. Another thing, that is not intended but just the nature of the story, lots of sexual tension.

Hearing you talk about it, i wonder if i should re-read it. Having characters wanting the male to be monogamous just made my blood boil.
I like IGN comic reviews!

Comic Gaf - How many comics do you read per week?
Between the weekly MU releases and discounted CMX comics, by my calculations i need to read 20-25 comics a week to not fall behind on my reading.

Oddly Normal is a decently dute book. Too bad it won't last longer than a trade.
Doubt it. He doesn't even have a sword.

Nope. It's fantastic. Even his GOTG stuff is great as long as you don't have some strange devotion to arcane and long forgotten story lines
;D
I was going to read GOTG as I enjoyed Trial of Jean Grey and like Bendis. But the negative talk here put me off.

Brah, as of the most recent issue, things are about to get really interesting in terms of the "invasion" you were expecting. Ellis just spent some time on world and character-building first.
I dunno, that what I know of Bendis Guardians of the Earth is even worse than the worsest stuff I read on the Annihilation Omnibus recently...

How much shit have these guys given you about girly hijinx? That never stopped you.
But yeah, GOTG is pretty bad most of the time. I think I'm gonna drop it when Gamora's solo book gets off the ground. Green boobs are about the only reason I'm reading Guardians.

Oh my. I forgot about Gamora's solo book. I can't wait for it. Angelas first issue was cool too.

Was it? I passed on Angela #1, didn't want to add another $3.99 book to the pile this week.

I liked it and at the very least it was pretty to look at.
pffft, I'm surprised you're still convinced that you think stories from a few years ago are "long forgotten storylines".

Wrapping up this weeks MU with New Warriors. I think Justice has to be the blandest most generic character ever. Book is still fun though.
The last few days have been super lame. I haven't really felt like reading comics.
Hahaha. Perfect.

You read Fear Agent yet? Remender wrote that one as well, and Jerome Opena/Tony Moore trade off arcs. He also did some of Remender's Venom.
He's a great artist, but for various reasons he can't do a monthly if his life depended on it. I can't even remember the last comic book he did?

Deadpool about two years ago.
Alias keeps getting better ans better. Finshed today the Mattie Franklin Spider-Woman Part and Jessica Jones Secret Origin (Ugh, shes masturbating to Johnny Storm, Bendis attemps to make me feel a little bit uncormfortable are great) and it seems like I am coming to the finale Purple Man Arc.
I really hope they are starting a new Volume soon, the minicomic in the Marvel 75th Anniversary Issue and the upcoming TV series should be reason enough.

I know! That's why I've still been reading a couple issues of Preacher a day even though I haven't really wanted to read comics. Haha
I have a feeling SiP will get me back into that "I want to read comics so badly" mood. I think it's just the comic I need. Must finish Preacher first though! And we gotta wait for Messi anyways.
I loved the Opena/Moore trading off arcs in Fear Agent thing so much. Each time they would switch, I would think to myself "Okay, I think _____ (insert whichever artist is on the arc I had just gotten to) is my favorite of the two." And that happened every single arc. I would be bummed that whichever artist's arc was about to end, and then I'd be reminded just how great the other artist was. They were both just so good.
So about Spider-Verse, I'm not sure if I'm missing an issue, but:
At the end of one issue, it shows the Inheritors jumping into the Ultimates Universe and chasing Miles. And a couple of issues later, it shows Miles along with the others with Cosmic Spidey. Did I miss an issue somewhere?

All this talk of Alias has convinced me to buy that Alias omnibus...(the fact that it is a hardcover omnibus also contributes to me wanting to buy it).

Not counting trades, usually whatever I pick up that week. Usually ranges from 7-10 books or so. Occasionally I'll have a book or two I just don't want to read because I have no interest. Sometimes it's Elektra, sometimes it's Chew. But I feel too attached to these series to drop the book(s).

Read the first Saga trade today, didn't really enjoy it. I don't like either of the main characters or the way everyone talks. It seems to be heading in a soap opera'ish direction and that's not for me. That art is pretty nice though. Maybe I'll give it another shot once the series is complete.
