I just read "Joe The Barbarian" and thought it was one of Grant Morrisons best works. Just a well thought out, well executed, wildly imaginative story that has to be his most accessible script. Reminded me so much of my childhood with all the toys. Sean Murphys art is glorious, nothing else needed to say about that.

Touché.. I liked it a lot.

 

[Duress]

I'm reading Supergods by Morrison. It's a mix of biography and comic book history. So far, it's been pretty good. I just wish there were art pages, to go with his descriptions.

Just finished Ant-Man #1. Great start to the series. Really well written, laughed out loud several times. I loved Scott's dig at Tony.

Just finished 100 bullets.

100 Bullets is fun but some of the racial characterizations in that are really kind of sucky.

Just read Secret Warriors for the first time. Hickman is nuts.

Planet Hulk is well-loved and commonly recommended. World War Hulk...isn't.

I have read neither.

I actually hear nothing but good things about Planet Hulk when it comes to the comics. I watched the animated movie and really didn't like it. That being said I don't like the Hulk. I want to since I like the concept of Banner trying to deal with this savage monster inside of him, but at least in recent portrayals he seems too intelligent for my taste. Makes it seem weird that people are still afraid of him.

Kinda don't want to read anymore comics since I read Squirrel Girl. It was just that good.

 

[Fjordson]

Fuck yes.

Thirding the Fear Agent Library Edition recommendation. Excellent comic and an excellent product.

I'm a sucker for Dark Horse's hardcovers too. They're so nice.

Fear Agent's the fucking shit.

Thanks brehs. Ordered the first library edition.

 

[Duress]

I liked Jason Aaron''s run on Hulk.

It killed Comics for you? Thats sad to hear :/

Watched the first two Episodes of Peggy Carter. Really liked her chemistry with Jarvis. I am really looking forward to the Peggy Carter Comic.

 

[PsychBat!]

World War Hulk takes place after Planet Hulk so not really.

Squirrel Girl caused comics to die. Comics are no more.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Yeah, World War Hulk is the aftermath for Planet Hulk. You could read it if you want an to see the end for Planet Hulk and since its included in Marvel Unlimited, but remember, its shit.

 

[Zombine]

Planet Hulk was a fantastic take on the John Carter series, World War Hulk is just trash.

I actually bite me in the ass that I didnt bought the John Carter Omnibus...

 

[GorillaWithDandruff]

Planet Hulk is so fucking good. WWH is trash. JRJR is trash. Retcons in aftermath were trash. The stomp felt round the continent *cringes*

Lol shut up.

 

[arkon]

Only good thing about World War Hulk was that we got Incredible Hercules out of it.

 

[tim1138]

You know Messi likes Squirrel Girl because he only bought one copy of it. If he hated it he would already have at least three copies.

Best last page in comics.

Hickman variant for Nameless #1

 

[cablenathan]

Reading Axis, got up to issue 3 and it saddens me to say that it seems to be of Fear Itself quality. I am intrigued to see where it goes though and as a Marvel fan I'm gonna keep going with it and see what happens. I have some faith in Remender's writing even though it is a big event.

On another note, started reading Batman Court of Owls last night and it is really gripping, fantastic writing and the art is stunning (I've also picked up the Unwrapped edition and it is a thing of beauty). I cannot wait for an inevitable Snyder and Capullo omnibus or even better an Absolute edition to be released...

 

[Freezasaurus]

Hickman variant for Nameless #1

I'm actually really excited for this book. Morrison writing a sci-fi story at $2.99? Yes plz.

 

[KoruptData]

I preordered it today at my shop. Can't wait.

 

[Filthy Slug]

Hickman variant for Nameless #1

Damn--I hope I can grab one of those. Dude has got really good aesthetic sensibilities.

 

[Rhaknar]

I thought WWH lead to PH not the other way around, interesting

 

[Freezasaurus]

So I don't know why... But I have a strong urge to reread through the Onslaught arc.

Sounds like you're a masochist!

I preordered it today at my shop. Can't wait.

That's actually a good idea.

*emails his comic guy*

 

[PsychBat!]

The Nick Fury story is so wacky. There's so much shit going on in his life considering what went on in Secret Warriors and the shit he did regarding Original Sin.

It's pretty good.

MU sub ending so i read All New X-Men #26, the oversized issue by a bunch of artists. I got an ipad wallpaper candidate out of it but outside of that, it was a very weak issue of what-if one-page things by different artists.

All New X-Men is the one with the original 5 time traveling to today to see how much of a fuck up Cyclops becomes or something?

Another one to the queue I guess!

Definitive Batman of our time. Followed closely by Tomasi's Batman and Robin.

Hey, the book is $2.99 too. Good on them for that.

I just did my DCBS order for March and both Avengers and New Avengers are double shipping that month. Good thing I dropped the Bendis X-titles.

I'm going to take the sillymonkey approach here and say I didn't like it. It just didn't grab me the way most of Morrison's books do. Maybe it felt like a poor-man's version of those rad portions of The Unwritten with the fairytale creatures (and the swearing bunny!).

 

[PsychBat!]

Are the April solicitations coming soon?
