There is a Neogaf shout out in the letters section of Nailbiter #26. I wonder who that could have come from.

OOOOOOMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGG GIANT DAYS WAS SO CUUUUUUUUUUUTE
USAvengers has my favorite type of shenanagins. Wasp is super hyper charming and makes me sad again Mockingbird got cancelled. I'll say it again: the first arc of Mockingbird is one of the best things ever. Superman looks like it's starting an event. Might drop it til it's over, specially since I dropped New Superman. Is it just me or is JLvSS going super fast? It's weird but DC as a whole feels like they are secretly having this massive event in the background that they can only tease and reference obliquely. Saga! Bruh! Love that book. Nova is making me feel bad for Sam butalso, is anyone else reading Injustice? I like them not making me play the gameChampions yay!
Oh and what's up with Snotgirls long ass hiatus?
Lastly, Unworthy Thor continues to be strong and Unfollow continues to be completely bonkers.
That's all I read. Now I for some reason have all of The Wicked + The Divine sitting here. Whatever should I do.
JL v SS is a weekly series so it is going super fast.
Didn't Snotgirl just finish its first arc? Its probably taking the image 3-4 month break between arcs.
Which one of you did this?
What does it say?
Snot girl on hiatus? That piece of shit O'Mailey.USAvengers has my favorite type of shenanagins. Wasp is super hyper charming and makes me sad again Mockingbird got cancelled.

Superman and Action Comics are having a crossover "event" soon. Superman 18-19 and Action 975-976.

It was ME! I answered the survey that Williamson is always posting in the back and listed this place as one of the places I get comic news. I really should have referred to it as ComicGAF but I wasn't thinking clearly.
Snotgirl #5 is one of the few times I felt Pissed over a comic. I felt like he didn't know how to end the arc so let's come up with another cliffhanger and unresolved issues
Amazing. You should have taken your moment to shit on Freeza in a real comicbook.
Edit I just read it: "My two siberian Huskies" well that gives it away lol

I can't get over how well "edited" Domu is. (Can't really think of a comic term to describe what I am talking about - a mix of pacing, cutting between establishing and character shots, moving between locations, etc). Especially stands out after watching that Suicide Squad editing video.

I should really read that.
I should really read that.
I bought both books already, just haven't gotten around to reading yet.
You *really* should.
I'm guessing it's because
they unleashed their giant herd and kind of slinked off, so they're not really fighting the Whisperers anymore, more having to deal with their final f&*^ you zombie nuke.
Yeah the iPad can sync with the phone so that it can show you info from the phone, calls and texts and such, and reply to them from the iPad. Could also make calls from it if you so desired
you'll never have to look away from the warming glow of your digital comics

You should read it. A friend of mine is reading it and is trying to get me to read it.

So how long will people be mad at Spencer? I give it 2 weeks.
Spencer is still getting hate for Hydra Cap.
Wait until the announcement of the Hydra Cap event comes.
Damn, Slayven is going to have to high-five Bendis for that one.
After reading a few more books Nova was definitely my favorite this week and potentially beyond that.
People are always angry with Spencer.

Morning Glories.
I want to read Nova bad but that 6 month MU delay...ugh. I saw that panel where Kamala mentions Rich's passionate fanbase online and laughed hard, because it's so true about us.
I will never understand why Marvel didn't have Sam and Rich team up when the first Marvel NOW launched. Loeb could have introduced a new young hero without any hostility by having Rider there in the beginning as a role model.

People haven't stopped being mad at Spencer since at least since Sam!Cap.

Why are people mad at Spencer this time?
Yeah, Fox News was angry over the first issue of that book and I remember some people getting upset over Sam supporting gay rights in an early issue.

I feel like things were calming down from Hydra Cap.
So based on the summaries I've read online I'm just going to assume that newest Batman issue was inspired by
People still yell at him online through social media.
The Killing Joke movie.

Unworthy Thor: so good. Jason Aaron is consistent as hel.
So happy that Thori joined the team. I miss that little hound, and it proves that Jason Aaron remembers that Gillen's version of Loki existed.
Aaron's Loki is traditionally sound, but I miss the God of Stories/Agent of Asgard version.

Only about 20~ issues left and I will be done with the entirety of Claremont's X-Men from Giant-Size X-Men to X-Men #3 (minus a few annuals and NM issues missing on MU). Feels pretty weird knowing I'm almost done. Definitely gonna make a big ol' write-up when I'm done. Which of course means I know need some hot recs for other good/decent X-Men runs. I've read/heard good things about
Morrison's New X-Men
Whedon's Astonishing
Remender's Uncanny X-Force
Aaron's Wolverine and the X-Men
Bendis' Uncanny
Any others?
E: and David's X-Factor. Derp.

Those are some damn fine runs. Looking to hop straight to modern stuff? There is good to be found in the '90s if you're willing to give books like Peter David's original X-Factor run and Alan Davis' Excalibur run a chance.
But the nice thing about jumping to Morrison's New X-Men is it's a nice, clean cut, and everything that happens after sort of develops from that book. So I could see that working out fine.
If you are going to read the newer volume of David's X-Factor, start with the Madrox limited.
I don't recommend reading Bendis' Uncanny without its companion title, All-New X-Men. I liked them both a lot. But that's a ways off.
Edit: also. You will get more out of Remender's Uncanny X-Force if you are familiar with some of the '90s stuff. You might do a quick run through the best parts of Age of Apocalypse at least. You might even have fun.

The assumption is Sam replaced Rich. The more likely scenario is Rich was going away period (again, Richard Rider wasn't popular at all until Annihilation) and Loeb offered to replace him with a new character (Sam).
And UMvC3 helped build Rich's rep

So Nadia is basically:
The villains in the newest issue were
a satirical group of left wing extremist willing to commit murder for political correctness
Waifu?

A girl raised in isolation from birth to be a genius by a shadowy organization. So basically Sunny.
She even looks exactly like Sunny
