It's also very 90s and hard to read these days. Claremont has a tenancy to have his heroes spell out what they are doing which is really distracting compared to modern comics
"I shall dispose of this villain with a thunderbolt I summoned with my mutant powers" we can see the drawing Storm, we don't need you to tell us
Edit: wtf that famous Iron Fist run is from 2006?why did I think it was a recent thing, it's almost 10 years old!
It's been a while since I read Astonishing, so that should be were I start.
Inhuman #12 - Medusa to Blackbolt
I continue to be shocked how much I have come to love this book (maybe 12 issues in I should stop being surprised), probably the most underrated book of this year in my opinion. I actually care about Inhumans now, go figure. Amazing last page (which I can't find online and it's bumming me out) too, really liking the artist, especially his Medusa.

Soule did to the Inhumans what he did for the Red Lanterns. Crafting a whole semi new side of the MU. It helps that all the Inhuman related books have been great as well.
Huh you're right it IS a Soule book just noticed. Why were we all sitting on whatever ANAD book he's doing just because it's a Charles Soule book again?
I think he also writes something I read recently and enjoyed.
Edit: oh it was Inhumans Attilan Rising duh lol. No wonder

Finished the first arc of Morrison's New X-Men. That's certainly a way to start a series lol
Once Amazon finally processes my Fallout 4 trade-in I'll be getting:
All-Star Superman
Batman: The Long Halloween
Batman: The Black Mirror or something else around $10, not quite sure yet.

I'm now at the part in Fallout 4 where I no longer have hope that the story isn't terrible. I knew going in it's Bethesda, but when you're given a choice over who to support and you think every side is poorly handled in the game....i'm glad i did a lot of exploring in between advancing the story.
Also, Archie vs Predator is still iffy.

Intentional new style. Hands are definitely not broken. Can confirm that much.
It's gonna drop? Is ABC still on the San Bernardino thing?

Kang was pretty awesome in Siege. They should make a new Exiles book staring Kang and Blink and whoever else.
Put Blink in any book really and I'll buy it.
She'd actually be great for the UXM roster with her AoA ties to Mags and Sabertooth.
Lashley
Why does he wear the mask!?
It's a fantastic book, you'll enjoy it. Made me actually like the Inhumans so far.

I haven't read Marvel in a while. Catching up on Secret wars and the spin offs. Really like A-Force.
I refuse to accept there is someone who doesn't like Kang.
Also, it's a travesty that Spider & The X-Men was only 6 issues. Last one was really cute, really wish it was coming back (but it wouldn't fit with the new Spieer-Man I know I know)

Boring time-traveler Kang?

Don't listen to this. He sometimes does this about things like psylocke's psychic blade, but it doesn't take away from how awesome he is. Specifically in the 70's and 80's. The 90's stuff, sure, by then he isn't as good.
You should sign her up for marvel unlimited. By far the cheapest way to read these.
Iron Lad?
Loved Kang in Siege.
IMO it was one of the best tie ins. Ends beautifully. Can't wait for the Relaunch.
Vision #2 was good, continues the vibe of the first book. Somehow
Robin War #1 was also excellent, like that we got a couple different timely themes in there that were well handled (
) and the handling of the whole 'Robins' phenomena felt very grounded.
King is King.
seeing the son lose his shit (in a very Vision way) really added to the creepiness levels
Robin War #1 was also excellent, like that we got a couple different timely themes in there that were well handled (
the entire first confrontation of the book, despite involving a kid dressed as Robin and all that, felt like that's really how something like that would go down

Most of my favorite moments in Robin War were the silly ones (Duke in the police car, Damian vs. Fucking Everybody), but I can't deny that it handled the similarities with current events.
I think the opening page was of Vision was just about perfect, with Vin
sinking into the floor.
I was a mess
That's what I was thinking, this doesn't feel like the inbetween the Lee/ditko issues that marvel said they were. This feels like something new and I quite like it. Gwen seems a mix of ultimate and movie Gwen.
I would expect the films to have a different feel since Spidey is supposed to be an all-ages book.
Aren't all of the All New, All Different Marvel books all-ages book? Which if they were movies would be either rated PG or PG-13.
Carnage most certainly isn't all ages.
All-ages books are something you can give young kids and that doesn't fit with too many of the books Marvel and DC are putting out for various reasons.
Besides that.

Yeah, I would not recommend Vision for any kid you don't intend to scar.
I don't think kids would even understand how dark it is.
Wednesday is the one say you are required to read comics. So shameful.

I dunno, I think I'd have picked up on it when I was a kid.
Infinite Crisis.
Thanks poodle.

Invincible Iron Man had great art but man was the dialogue insufferable. I'll just keep reading Slott's Spider-Man for my techno-joker, action comic fix.
Maybe he just doesn't care for their cornrows.

Anybody like that new Phonogram series?

Happy to hear this vote of confidence. I'm ever so eager for a good female-lead cape flick.
