Good riddance. Put that poor series out of it's misery and give Kate her own book.

We seen this coming a mile away. Sad to see it go.

Now give us a Kate solo.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Not cool, bro.

Nah, Hawkguy hasn't been hitting release dates for a while, and it's gotten to the point where a lot of people don't even care anymore, myself included. Just end it.

Yep. I am the exact same. When did the last issue even ship? And the one before that.

It actually ended a number of months ago. Matt Fraction just doesn't have to pretend to give a shit anymore.

March 26th, and March 12th accordingly.

 

[Zombine]

Not cool, bro.

Wonderful, charming book which led to Marvel taking many more chances with quirky little solo and team books. Hawkguy was one of the few books I blindly doubled down on when I was first getting back into books and I loved it.

With that said, the release schedule killed the momentum of the story, and like GH said, at this point many of us no longer care.

I will be there for the hardcover/omnibus though.

March 26th, and March 12th accordingly.

And one more before that?

Wow was it really march? Crazy

 

[Zombine]

I truthfully thought I missed an issue or two. Nope. Might as well finish of the series with physical issues.

 

[Freezasaurus]

And one more before that?

February 26th. So it seems like it was on a fairly regular release pattern before that.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Hawkeye will read well once it's collected. Sad to see it end but at the same time it's been months since the Clint cliffhanger and that sucks.

 

[Zombine]

February 26th. So it seems like it was on a fairly regular release pattern before that.

And then the time the issues shipped backwards.

Except before that they changed to the split releases with Kate and Clint. With different artists. And sometimes we got double Kate because Aja wasn't done. Kate has been carrying the series for months.

Give me an Annie Wu/Fraction Hawkgal

And the dog cartoon issue which was fun, but the equivalent of the episode "Fly" in Breaking Bad.

Don't forget how issue 17 was basically a filler issue. It was a holiday issue that came out in March lol

Hated it

 

[Zombine]

We're all like "Man, Hawkeye sure was good. Look at what a shit show it has been since the beginning. Fuck this book. Pre-ordering the Omni on Amazon right now."

The thing is the content is fine. The delays killed it, all together in the right order in an omni I am sure it will be fantastic.

Buying the next two trades AND the inevitable omnibus

 

[Zombine]

I am honestly intrigued by the delays, the creative process, and how the story came to be. Forget CBR or ComicVine interviews or whatever...this is one of the few books which have transcended the genre, and really deserves an In-depth look at how it was a miracle that even the first issue made it to print.

I'm hoping that the Omni isn't bare bones and contains a lot of that material.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

you will all buy the singles, and then the trades, and then the omnibus in 2017

also, its Sunday so time for random Frank Miller page

Aw, Hawkeye no...

Fraction doesn't have any Marvel projects announced does he? I wonder if he'll follow Brubaker.

You mean going Image-exclusive?

 

[slightconfuse]

Funny we were just talking about secret six

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Hopefully Hawkguy ending means that the second oversized hardcover can release.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

speaking of cool books that got delayed and nobody knows why

We should ask Tim what happen to Zero

 

[BuddyJoeHooker]

You mean going Image-exclusive?

Yeah, he moves Casanova over to Image, has Ody-C coming out soon, no new Marvel projects since Inhuman was taken from him. It's a possibility.

 

[Messi]

Funny we were just talking about secret six

I feel like she is trying to tell us something, but what is it?

 

[IrishNinja]

wow, yeah i can see why people'd wanna forget that dungeon full of harleys...man i didn't like anything about death of the family, looking back

Good riddance. Put that poor series out of it's misery and give Kate her own book.

seriously? we've seen shittier release schedules on much lesser books, really don't get this attitude

Hopefully Hawkguy ending means that the second oversized hardcover can release.

reminds me, i gotta go grab the first one!

 

[Tyrant Rave]

I feel like she is trying to tell us something, but what is it?

I think she's writing a new comic but I'm not sure

 

[Serpentine]

Funny we were just talking about secret six

...a new ongoing starring a revamped and updated version of Secret from the old Young Justice series

 

[Zombine]

Funny we were just talking about secret six

"Guys Secret Secret Secret Secret Secret Secret" confirmed. Must be a new Image book.

 

[Messi]

It wasn't just the release schedule.

 

[BuddyJoeHooker]

She does mention SECRET six times but who knows.
Edit: beaten like six times

 

[IrishNinja]

It wasn't just the release schedule.

oh no? what else did you guys not dig? the book definitely shifted when it went over to cali & kat's story, but that was pretty well liked too, i thought

Where the fuck are my new issues of Orc Stain and Rat Queens?

 

[Serpentine]

Where the fuck are my new issues of Orc Stain and Rat Queens?

This week, homie!

 

[Messi]

Where the fuck are my new issues of Orc Stain and Rat Queens?

Rat Queens is on Wednesday

 

[KoruptData]

That Becky Cloonan fan art. Gotham Acedemy seal on the mug?

Welcome to Burnside, #Batgirl

 

[BuddyJoeHooker]

It got delayed a month which isn't really that big a deal for a series that doesn't depend on cliffhangers or linear story telling. Kot keeps hyping up the next issue though.

 

[Zombine]

Worst book I've ever read in my life. Had
Ann Noccenti written it we would have had a far superior title.

 

[Messi]

Heh, that is really cool. Really hyped for the new Batgirl.

 

[SoilBreak]

Funny we were just talking about secret six

A new secret six ongoing?

 

[Zombine]

Really hyped for the new Batgirl.

Carol Corps 2: Batpocalypse. Hold on to your butts.

 

[IrishNinja]

i thought we were waiting on Battle Chasers, man

Worst book I've ever read in my life. Had
Ann Noccenti written it we would have had a far superior title.

well, she does seem like a very nice person

 

[dan2026]

Does Scandal Savage even freaking exist in the new 52?

 

[Savitar]

It would take nothing to whip her up really if she doesn't.

And Gail not having her in the book would be a shocker as Gail has been pushing for more types of people than just straight.
