I was waiting for years for a Planet Hulk Reprint, but not as an Omnibus. Not paying 100€ for that one. Maybe I am going to buy the OHCs or so.


One question - Does anyone remember how the Illuminati shot Banner into space? They mentioned that the Hulk rampaged through Vegas, I would love to read this, can anyone point me to specific issues?

Double shipping gwenpool and no digital codes...I'm debating waiting for MU, especially if I drop the flop buying and lose the dcbs discount

Really? I've seen it said quite a bit, and I think it's a solid critique. There's a number of reasons the Xmen (and now the inhumans, I guess) don't rely work as standins for real minority issues.

Also Tim Drake sucks.

One is the non Guru issue and the other starts the next arc, likely to answer how Gwen ended up in the book universe

That's kind of backwards thinking. There isn't anything that requires Secret Empire to end in August. Marvel is just trying to cram as much content into the market as they can,

Marvel has plans to make changes later this year and having it release less frequently would push that back.

All double shipping does for me, in the case of Marvel, is make me drop books faster than I usually would. It's not a mark against double shipping, I have loved it with DC, but I've been pretty bad about dropping Marvel books pretty easily already and turning some to double shipping just makes me drop some that I've already stayed on longer than I probably would have.

Oh I'm sure the annual relaunch is planned for the fall to coincide with Secret Empire ending. The real question is will the relaunch happen before Secret Empire finishes like the past two ones have gone down.

Feels like some of the double ships are to quickly advance the storylines before the relaunch.

Given the number of artists on the book I would expect it to finish on time.

I don't like the idea of spending $8 for two issues of a book in a month. With dcbs it was better, 4.80, and they had digital codes. The value just isn't there and waiting six months for MU just seems practical.

So, Miss America still wears one of these:

I remember these from school... This was like 6 years ago... Please tell me there are no folks who think young people still wear those?

Now there are two pops

You are already down the rabbit hole

But of course.

I keep forgetting to cancel MU, but maybe with the changing landscape I should keep it.

Speaking of MU, I got a code for a free month to give out, the code expires at 12:00 AM ET so be quick, quote to see (and post if you took it!):

The code has been used already.


It was used by me! Thanks.

That's just more deterring. It's like a show all of a sudden airing multiple episodes each week all of a sudden. "Let's just dump this shit, and move on."

I get they want to relaunch since Marvoo Shattered Dreams is a bomba but fucking hell, rushing to the next one seems idiotic.

My problem with MU is that I get caught up in a buffet of mediocre comics just like I did when I bought 40 monthlies, there is no option to drop a book, it's there, it's always there.
