Honestly, the title should be Love Is Love even if we don't have any good romance comics for the month.
We are covered for Valentines. Trust me.

"COMICS! |OT| February 2017: Happy Valiant Day! No, wait, that's not right..."
I have to be honest, Secret Empire looks like it might be quite good as Marvel events go. Cap has been pretty consistently their best book for like a decade now.

Ahhhh, Comics. Gotta love 'em.
Also was Backstagers always pitched as an 8 issue mini?
How is the Patsy Walker a.k.a. Hellcat series? Thinking about picking up Vol. 1 because it looked interesting. Just finished up Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur and wanted something similar in tone.
Keep in mind I have no past familiarity with the character so would be going in completely blind.
That Deadly Class cover is suspect... Trying not to get my hopes up.
I wouldn't bother. Good art really simplistic writing. Just not at the same level as Moon Girl.

Yep, it was always gonna be eight issues (though I do hope it will be back in some way)
I am so confused. Marvel news post hyped up Taskmaster vs. Steve Rogers in issue 10, but the issue with Task on the cover got bumped to 12. I guess marketing forgot that because they did a huge featurette on Tasky on their news mentioning issue 10.
Where are our tank girl experts?There's that new humble tank girl bundle.
I've never read it, but been meaning to cause i like the gorillaz.
How complete is this collection?

I called it.
Monsters Unleashed is so much fun! At least the Avengers and SM/DP parts were...
The "To Be Concluded" in Black Panther concerns me.
I was honestly more shook by the last couple pages
Why do I get the feeling DC wants to relaunch Justice League Dark with Batman at the forefront?

My banana bread I baked yesterday came out great, you can't even taste the paint.
Okay...there was no paint, but there were bananas.
Yes, a coincidence.I'm eating banana bread right now. What an AMAZING coincidence!
Ghost Rideris becoming increasingly comedically not about Ghost Rider. He was literally in 10 pages this issue and was out of frame in like half of those. GR straight up bailed halfway through the story. Like "fuck this I'm out" got in his car and drove the fuck away.

It really is. I think the writer pitched a Wolverine Hulk buddy comedy comic and was turned down, so now they're using GR to tell the story instead.That is hilarious
Reason I dropped it after issue 1
The last bit did make me laugh though in your post
