I feel like your avatar should have a monocle on it if you're going to talk like that.
that many books and there is bound to be some bad ones.
I like some more than others. But I don't dislike any book enough to drop them.
Moved my Marvel Now OHCs away from my Kallax onto a longer shelf. I think it looks a lot nicer now without the little breaks between each 12 inches of the Kallax!
Still need Thor Goddess of Thunder 1, Ms. Marvel 1, Unbeatable Squirrel Girl 1, Hawkeye 3, and Uncanny X-Men 2. After that they're changing the spine design. Actually, Squirrel Girl might already have that new design. Not sure. Anyway, I'll get to those new spine ones eventually.

Beautiful. Does it break your heart to know that Marvel changed the spine design with Squirrel Girl going forward?
Squirrel Girl has the new spine
Haha, a little bit. I can't help but really like the design of the new spine, but yeah. I wish they at least left the Marvel logo the same height.

So do I. I love both designs.
There are relatively frequent sales for the Dimensions stuff, usually around 50% off. And then I have the Best Buy gamer club thing for an added 20% off that, so those story packs are like $20 or something. AKA if you wait and strike at the right time, the individual prices on these things aren't too bad. That said, when you take it all in together it's easy for that stuff to add up...

What does the new one look like? Any photos?

The Marvel logo up top of the spine takes up a bit less space, the character illustration is now color and the volume number is at the very bottom.
Is that the new Deadpool run??
I like the new design more. This is the 3rd redesign in this style lol

I RANKED PLATINUM IN OVERWATCH, BITCH!
I can stop playing knowing I'm the best Zenyatta in the world.

Yup, just came out today! I guess the new spine - which I also like more, and think it's quite beautiful - is in Unbeatable Squirrel Girl 1, Deadpool World's Greatest 1, and Spiderman Worldwide 1 (also just came out today). I think I'm going to wait awhile for those, though. Want to finish these up first.
Worldwide is the first new Spidey ohc?
Yeah. Contains #1-11 of the ANAD series.
15 volumes... hope its on humble like transformers was

Finished Jason Aaron's Dr. Strange vol. 1and 2 this past weekend. Thought they were both pretty solid.
It's crazy how well it threads the needle in that way. It could come across as bleak, melodramatic, preachy, but it avoids all of those potential issues and does so each issue. I think that the setting being so far from our reality helps in that regard, much in the same way that Star Trek could address social issues without people getting upset about it because the setting was so different from day to day life.
Flintstones is consistently my favorite or second favorite book each week it comes out.

That is different. Like the color they added to the new format.

I notice that you still own a copy of Battle of the Atom. It's okay. I own a physical copy of Ultimatum.Moved my Marvel Now OHCs away from my Kallax onto a longer shelf. I think it looks a lot nicer now without the little breaks between each 12 inches of the Kallax!

Best crossover event of 2016
I liked Battle of the Atom.

I liked the follow up to it where the Future Brotherhood came back in All-New X-Men. Didn't like the event itself. Felt like everyone was incredibly stupid.

I've never read BoTA, but I heard it started well - then fell off. Is that about right?

That's about right imho. It unraveled
save your money
What makes you say that? I've only read good things about it so far.
I wasn't serious.
Wasp and USAvengers are apparently the best reviewed comics this week.
EDIT: Lame joke is lame.
You're playing with my emotions lol.
reviews are out already? where dis b 8
I'm not too big on comic reviews, but there are quite a few other ones that liked Wasp as well.
They Gave Hulk #1 a 6.5, Civil War #8 a 4, and Spider-Man #11 an 8.5.
yea this site is actually pretty good. will bookmark them. They gave Cap: Steve Rogers #8 an 6.5 which is actually quite fair. The writing is good but the book is starting to drag more than a Bendis joint.
Edit: scrolling through their reviews of the past couple of months and damn do they nail the ratings 4/5 times.
