You could get that omnibus in trades for less than $10 I'm sure.
Movie doesn't come out til 2018, plenty of time to put it on ice and relaunch it later
Ms Marvel still does around 30k monthly in physical sales, Cap has been trending down since it relaunched. The past two months it's been under 20k physically, the only other books selling that poorly that haven't been canceled are Winter Soldier and Deathlok.
I'm not bashing on the book by any means, I quite enjoy it, but I don't really see it hanging on too much longer with as poorly as it sells.
Yesss. Finally someone else sees the light. Space: Punisher is one of my all-time favorites due to its incredible ridiculousness.

Whoa, wait a tick.
Deadpool is actually over? It's not solicited in May.

He has a secret wars tie in. But yeah I am fairly sure they said it was ending.
I feel the opposite. I'm an event truther yet these books have me hyped.

That's not what it is. It's what he was doing in the background while the 80s Secret Wars was going on (he didn't exist at the time).
I expect them to get a whole issue out of the "Hulk holds a mountain on his back" scene:

All Marvel books should be cancelled except for Captain Marvel. Guardians of the Galaxy? Ruined by Bendis. X-Men? Fuck those guys. Spider-Man? Pfffffft.

I'm excited for Secret Wars but as a trade-waiter, I have to reign myself in for a few months.
First I have to experience AXIS and see if Birdie can really be trusted or not. It seemed pretty divisive in these parts.

I thought Superior was pretty good. Has a typical Millar twist I think you'll like and Yu puts in some good work.

I hated it, but I am still getting the hardcover because it was a price error on Amazon UK. I figure it will look nice with the Uncanny Avengers omni at least.

I didn't really deviate from my prognosis of it being the worst colors in a comic book I've ever seen.
Futures End is colored better.
If the character brings in a good amount of female readers I could see another relaunch.

I can't imagine Captain Marvel getting cancelled, even with its low sales

You can't get many good indie comics hardcovers for £17 though. If I'm buying a physical book, there's no half measures.
I by every indie title that interests me at the moment. Right now, I just wait for the first trade on most things. Just don't have the scratch to buy 3-4 Image #1s a week. When money's tight, and TBH it couldn't be tighter right now, new books get the shove from me. In times of trouble, you gotta stick with what you know.
If the new Humble Bundle tomorrow is comics that interest me, I will buy that.

Steve, the dog with no powers that we let hang out with us all for some reason
Yup, looking forward getting this one by the end of the month.
The cover alone makes it feel worth it.
I hope not but who knows where things will end up after Secret Wars.
All hail the lord!Yes, there is.

When is Image finally going to release the second OHC for Fatale, I'd like to finish the damn thing.

Oh man, that cover. Seeing John Henry totally reminded me how his story went down.
That page.
Holy shit.

They would most definitely relaunch Captain Marvel at some point. It's Marvel, they're gonna want a book on shelves in the lead-up to her movie.

Battle Word just doesn't sound compelling in the slightest.

It sounds like the title of a shitty MTV rap-battle show.

COMICS |OT| May 2015 Battleworlds With Friends
"Ta-da! It's Roz! What a surprise!"
...If it isn't her I will applaud Aaron for avoiding that.
But you just have to see your favourite heroes square off again!
Last strip of Sunstone chapter 4 is out. go go go go.
edit: ohwell that is pretty darn sad

I'm looking forward to Civil War XII: So Very Tired.
"Avengers Tower is drafty and damp. I complain but nobody listens."
The climatic fight scene never happens because Tony Stark is now morbidly obese and can't even fit into the Hulkbuster.
EDIT: THAT BETTER NOT BE A SPOILER ZOMBINE! WHAT THE FUCK?

Where's the solicit for X-Men '92 and Renew your vows???
Featuring the fights, battles and blow-ups that are just TOO BIG for Secret Wars!
Reminds me of AvX Vs, which i hated, and how Fear Itself stripped out any of the potential fun hammer fights.

Yay, new New 3DS XL day. Now for some transfarring.
Gamestop's packaging is even worse than B&N's.

I think that Powers is going to be the biggest trainwreck of a show:
You should do it.
