so hes not in a team? boo on that

He is. That's a team book.

He's also currently on Magneto's squad in UXM

 

[Tizoc]

Rucka's Sabretooth was a good variation of the character. Still a villainous asshole, but in his Wolverine run, Sabretooth had more lines of dialog than the entire cast of the series combined.

 

[Sandfox]

oh good guy Sabes is still a thing? what book is he going to be in?

The interviews with X-Men editors Daniel Ketchum and Mark Paniccia also reveal new details about a few of the book. For example, “X-Men Blue” will feature additional members, one of which will be hinted at in the first issue. Paniccia indicated that the new member might be a woman, commenting on the fact that right now the lineup is mostly men.

There are so many possibilities lol.

Surprised to see Venom on there, of all books

There was strong demand for Venom from what I've read weeks back.

 

[Rhaknar]

He is. That's a team book.

He's also currently on Magneto's squad in UXM

what team is Weapon X then? apparently I missed this announcement

 

[LordOfLore]

It and USAvengers have had tons of variant covers to stores. It apparently haven't been received that that well in the actual stores but the ones who managed to sell the "reprinted McFarlane" cover are probably happy they ordered 1000 issues for their store:

What a ugly cover.

 

[echoshifting]

Warpath, Sabretooth, Domino, OML and Lady Deathstrike in a comic brought to you by Gregs Pak and Land.

[Ross61]

Land is to Marvel what Booth is too DC.

 

[my name is ed]

I wrote and drew a short story about ghosts for POMEmag

pls read then clap

 

[Lashley]

Groot used to be a bit of a bastard.

 

[echoshifting]

I like "I am Groot"-Groot well enough

But I vastly prefer Indignant Monarch-Groot and I miss him

He's gone for good I'm sure

 

[LordOfLore]

I think a recent Groot focused issue revealed the Groot on the GotG isn't even the Groot from the classic comic which is what he was first said to be back in Conquest etc. Everything to make him nicer and more MCU-like?

Finally a colored version of this:

Edit:

Comicsbeat: 2017 May Be A Rough Year For Comics Retail And The Industry - Or Not.

Contains this great quote:

Enthusiasm for Monsters Unleashed is non-existent, and The Inhumans becoming a sales smash is a fantasy worthy of J.K. Rowling.

Ryan Higgins talked a bit about the year.

 

[Sandfox]

Groot used to be a bit of a bastard.

Say what you will about their personalities, but I prefer to new designs over the old ones.

 

[LordOfLore]

Way more info has been released about Batwoman!

 

[Serpentine]

Michael Keaton actually looks like he's having fun. I can't remember the last time he was in a non-serious role.

sounds like a man who has not watched Need for Speed

 

[Lashley]

Batman Annual was fantastic. I'll read Superman's later in the week.

Say what you will about their personalities, but I prefer to new designs over the old ones.

Same here

 

[Owzers]

Has anyone gotten the Harley holiday rwb statue yet?

 

[Messi]

Has anyone gotten the Harley holiday rwb statue yet?

Mine should be here soon

 

[OniBarubary]

Quick: I'm in the store right now, debating picking up Godkiller by Pizzolo. Any word on it?

 

[Sandfox]

This is a pretty good book to put Stein on.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Say what you will about their personalities, but I prefer to new designs over the old ones.

I think Rocket Raccoon and Star-Lord looked better around the DnA era. Everyone else, sure.

 

[Sandfox]

I think Rocket Raccoon and Star-Lord looked better around the DnA era. Everyone else, sure.

I agree with you on Star-Lord, but I'm just not a fan of DnA Rocket's design.

[echoshifting]

Finally wrapped up my backlog of singles today with several issues of Wonder Woman. It was a great treat to go through them all at once. This is one of the few Rebirth books that seems headed towards that "evergreen trades" status DC covets.

Edit: is there another site out there that performs the same function as comiclist? It appears to be down.

 

[Rhaknar]

Warpath, Sabretooth, Domino, OML and Lady Deathstrike in a comic brought to you by Gregs Pak and Land.

So OML is on 2 teams?

 

[Freezasaurus]

What a ugly cover.

Depends. If it's prismatic like those old hologram cards in the Marvel trading card series, then it's fucking awesome.

Way more info has been released about Batwoman!

Honestly I expected this news to come from Messi. I'm a little disappointed here, other-Messi.

Has anyone gotten the Harley holiday rwb statue yet?

Just a matter of when DCBS decides to charge me. It should be soon since they already have two other statues in-stock for me. And those cunts love waiting until they have over $150 worth of shit for you before they ship.

 

[echoshifting]

So OML is on 2 teams?

Yup

He is still Wolverine after all

Edit: can I just say what bullshit it is that OML is on two rosters and Laura still hasn't materialized on any of them. Hopefully she pops up in Blue but ugh. Blue.

 

[LordOfLore]

Yup

He is still Wolverine after all

Edit: can I just say what bullshit it is that OML is on two rosters and Laura still hasn't materialized on any of them. Hopefully she pops up in Blue but ugh. Blue.

Probably already in it. The new interview said Jean is the only female member "at the start" and a new one joins at the end of #1. It'll just be All-New X-Men.

Huh, Darkhawk is getting a toy.

I don't post news. I generally don't look at previews and can assure you I'm avoiding everything for Batwoman.

DCBS shipped my harley on 30/11

I'm not going to read too much into this, I'm just saying a Darkhawk push would save cosmic marvel

 

[tim1138]

I agree with you on Star-Lord, but I'm just not a fan of DnA Rocket's design.

The worst design from the DnA era was Moondragon. The generic GotG blue top with no pants look was so stupid.

 

[Freezasaurus]

DCBS shipped my harley on 30/11

If they don't ship my shit this week I will sue. Trump will allow it.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Shut your mouth. I am perfectly okay with the no-pants look. Who needs pants in space?

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Land is to Marvel what Booth is too DC.

At least Booth knows how to draw women respectfully. He's got style compared to copy/paste Land.

sounds like a man who has not watched Need for Speed

WHAT?!?!

 

[Sandfox]

Yup

He is still Wolverine after all

Edit: can I just say what bullshit it is that OML is on two rosters and Laura still hasn't materialized on any of them. Hopefully she pops up in Blue but ugh. Blue.

I'm starting to think that Eva might show up instead.

 

[mreddie]

Grain of salt as fuck.
4 Jackie Chan about Mavoo

Spoiler

Squadon is done and Scarlet Witch is gonna be put on ice for a while

Spoiler

Guardians are getting a relaunch as well as Spidey by Summer

Spoiler

New Hydra Order is the Summer event and another soft relaunch is in the cards, also not as much tie ins this go around

Again, grain.

^Marvel rumors folks

So, if true

Spoiler

is Bendis done with Guardians? That might already be confirmed, I can't recall. Is Slott done with ASM?
Excited for the Hydra event. We have actually been building towards that since Standoff so it might turn out really good. I would assume Spencer is writing it.

That's the second rumor I have seen for that. Could be the same source for all I know, but it would make sense

And Scarlet Witch and Squadron getting killed would not be surprising

Yep but said user has been said that Witch, Vision and Wasp were gonna get solos back before SDCC 2015/The ANAD preview
Again, those were kinda safe bets.

 

[Sandfox]

Well it looks like sites are finally starting to report on the ASM trade leak long after the fact lol.

Guardians is ending after the current arc ends and to me it looks like Slott is trying to finish up his run.

Yep but said user has been said that Witch, Vision and Wasp were gonna get solos back before SDCC 2015/The ANAD preview

The fact that they are so safe is why I'm doubting it lol.

 

[echoshifting]

Yeah they are all very safe. Possibly just speculation.

I'm not sure that Wasp prediction is impressive because it eventually came true. Like if I predict there will be some sort of new Fantastic Four book and then three years from now they announce one, that's not exactly stellar futuresight

Spoiler

Though I will absolutely link back to this post if they do

Worse still, predicting the resurgence of a character in a MCU movie, like duh. I predict Mantis will return to the Guardians next year at the latest, I am in the know

My sources also say Yondu

 

[mreddie]

Again, the Wasp one was likely due to her getting hype around the AM movie.

It's like saying Tom Brady will have a good year before the season starts.

 

[Messi]

I'm starting to think that Eva might show up instead.

Be still my heart.

 

[echoshifting]

Now that I've conquered my mountain of singles I'm trying to decide what to read next. I need your input comicgaf...

Do I want to catch up on...

Invincible
Lumberjanes
The Flintstones
Manifest Destiny
Tom King's Omega Men
Midnighter (pre-Midnighter and Apollo)
orrr
Sheriff of Babylon
?

I will get to them all eventually, but what direction should I point myself in today?

Comicsbeat: 2017 May Be A Rough Year For Comics Retail And The Industry - Or Not.

Let me make sure I have this straight. Comics Beat, in an article about the struggling comic industry, uses a Civil War II cover they've grabbed from a pirate comic site? They didn't even remove the watermark.

I wonder what is going on, guys!

Invincible

Yep.

 

[echoshifting]

I think you know what I'm going to say.

I already wrote down your vote

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Ah done with work and caught up on my tv backlog. Think I might do a little of that so called comic book reading tonight. I think I'll head back to pre Rebirth superman. The end of these runs with him depowered are surprisingly strong

In other news I need to update my gaf pet peeves list. I can't stand:
- Thread titles that start with a variation of "Can we talk about X?"
- replies that start with a variation of "You do realize that Y". Ugh
