Oh man Aikku's new powers rock. I am so glad she is getting screentime here. That is some potent phasing.
So we know she can Phase, Fly, and shoot lightning so far.

I was stunned at how great Medina's art was after one of the worst covers in comics history.
Could this be bigger? It's only taking up half of my second screen on top of all of my first.

How about the story? As it is, I only spent $16.95 on books today and am proud of myself.

It's cool. Ewing books these days frequently feel like 2/3rds of a comic.
It's Ewing. It's good.

I think I'll wait for a sale or something. Getting tired of $4 Marvel books.
Probably for the best.

I understand all Marvel books are at least $3.99 now, but it has me re-evaluating how much I really need to read some of these books, especially taking into account my enjoyment of them when compared to other $4 books like Giant Days and Slam.
Good but not worth breaking your budget to include if you are reading a lot of stuff already.

I only bought 5 books today and am proud of myself. I usually average about 10.
Yup. They will never win that argument.
I am spending a lot more than usual because I am trying a lot of new marvel books but honestly less than a handful have wowed me like other #1s from rival companies.
We all know dents and creases are the real print menace.

CBR: 17 Indie Comics Video Games You Forgot Existed
Love this article. Though I remember a bunch of these. Some of them fondly, even.

I won't forget XIII! One of my favourite games, though I haven't read the comic yet...
I hate that XIII is not avaiable on Steam:/

I'm so behind on my comics. Shiiiiiiieeeeeet
The Uncanny Avengers #18
Man I always love it when a plan comes together.
. Pretty intense issue and a great way to show how much of a threat
really is. This is just a good team book, and I can't stop loving how well-written Rogue is as a leader.
Uncanny X-Men #16
This was a cool addition to IvX. I enjoyed seeing an incredibly creative display of powers. This issue also reminded me that I don't need to regret dropping this book as a whole. I've seen this before. As a tie-in to IvX: Dope. As an issue of UXM: Don't care at all.
Extraordinary X-Men #17
This was a pretty good issue. Very emotionally powerful and a good issue for Ororo. If only the art didn't suck. This was just very bad art through and through. I think Ibanez would have been better. And that's saying a lot. Really brought down an otherwise strong issue.
Infamous Iron Man #3
We get a lot of insight into Doom this issue and how his character has truly been affected by Secret Wars. I'm a sucker for redemption stories, and this is certainly a big one. It both simultaneously makes me feel sorry for Doom and makes me dislike him all at once. He's clearly still a very selfish person. He's still doing this for himself and what Amara said isn't wrong at all. On the other hand, he's clearly wounded by her words and is in a state of intense emotional pain due to the sheer loneliness of having the world totally against him in every way. Even as he's just trying to help. What's truly interesting is that even though he's technically turning over a new leaf, he doesn't regret all the bad shit that he's done. Not even remotely. He just shrugs it off and says, "well things just didn't work out that way."
Oh, and there's some plot, I guess. On that note, actually, it's interesting to see that

Doom's mother was saved an sent to Heaven as a villain, but as a hero his mother is now (potentially) villainous. Has his changing of sides undone any good he did as a villain? An interesting point to make, if that's the case.

It's only $20. Easy purchase.
Cyke shouldn't accept backtalk from Rich when it comes to convoluted.

Despite how praised those books are, I still feel they're undervalued.
Is the preview indicative of the entire book?
Haven't read the preview but the dialog is the worst part of the book. Corny.

Wasp was enjoyable and Nova was great.
