Uncanny X-Force Dark Angel Saga?
I'm behind on New Avengers so I don't know what that version of Wiccan was like, but this is the one from Battle of the Atom.
Do we even know wtf happened with the uncanny one?
Last time I remember him was at the end of WATXM where he died and came back to life wuth no memories and back with angel wings, he was "pure".

It's explained in the current run, but it doesn't make a lick of damn sense. It basically ignores previous continuity. Here's what I said about the most recent issue:Do we even know wtf happened with the uncanny one?

Uncanny X-Men #10
So this was a strange end to the arc, but let's recap so I see if I can understand how this all works:
-Warren's wings begin to grow back, and despite him being tabula rasa'd long ago, he remembers them
-He goes to Genocide, leader of the current Akkaba, who promises to remove his wings and keep him from changing
-Warren then uses his healing powers (which he has) to masquerade as a priest
-Magneto somehow gets a hold of the "true" Archangel and uses it as a personal predator drone
-Magneto then, at some point, pretends to be Betsy and summons Archangel
-When doing this, a whole swarm of Archangels appears, because it turns out that the Akkabas were making an army of potential Apocalypses.
-Betsy helps Warren and the "true" Archangel fuse back together, since apparently they were separated somehow.
-Warren now has a church in his head
That sound about right? Because that shit was nonsense and the ending was even more nonsense. I know some books avoid previous runs, but this us just stupid.
Or am I just really stupid that I'm confused by this? Also,what were Mystique and Fantomex doing for Mags? I literally don't remember. They showed it during the Land issues, but that's probably why I don't remember
I'd completely forgotten he was in that. The one I was talking about was literally in two pages. One he was just talking from off screen, the other was a full page splash.
Edit:mWait, why would Wiccan be in the Future X-Men, anyway? And are you basing that on something or just that he was wearing the same cloak in the cover that was released?
Yo, Rich Ryder is coming back? This is fantastic news. Fucking love that guy.
Does anyone have the Animal Man omnibus? Worth getting? HAve my eye on it
Who is making the thread for August?
Tyrant is making it? Good know who to pmWhy wouldn't tyrant be doing it?
My wife really enjoyed the female Thor series. It seems to continue with Thors... is this where she should go to continue the female Thor story?
Ok guys let me know what you think about these books
Gotham academy: does it improve past the first volume?
Lumberjanes: still solid in the later issues?
Thors was the Secret Wars tie-in. If you're not reading that crossover then you can just skip that and start from the Mighty Thor relaunch.My wife really enjoyed the female Thor series. It seems to continue with Thors... is this where she should go to continue the female Thor story?

Ah, no. It continues in The Mighty Thor
got it, thank you bothThors was the Secret Wars tie-in. If you're not reading that crossover then you can just skip that and start from the Mighty Thor relaunch.
Gotham Academy was amazimg from issue 1 if you didn't like that it won't change your mind now.
Lumberjanes isn't as good anymore imo lost a step when Noelle Stephenson left
I can't speak in regards to Academy, I only read an issue or so. Lumberjanes is just...amazing. It's genuinely one of my favorite books.
Ah gotcha. I have the first trade of both , but wondering if I should read them since I gotta take them back today
I will let yah know what I think
What's in it currently?If people give me a list of books they want to see in the Comic Start Up Guide I'll add them in.
Removing Valiant entirely.

Sunstone and Death Vigil please. I'm not joking just make sure people are aware of sunstones disgusting lewd elements. Wouldn't want to accidentally lure people in again.
Also Manifest Destiny and Birthright
What's in it currently?
Yeah all of those will go on there
It's outdated by about 2 years now.
Screw it, I'll figure it out myself, then. (To be honest, the biggest thing intimidating me is how I don't recall why I own Eternal Warrior vol. #2 specifically, but I'm sure there was a reason, so I'll just tough it out and do the research). I guess I'll report back what the damage was once I have it all figured out...Okay, so someone (presumably Launchpad) help me out with this Valiant sale on comixology. Looking things over, here's what I have: Harbinger Deluxe Edition Vol. #1, Eternal Warrior vol. #2, Harbinger Wars, Rai Vol. #1-3, and issues #1-4 of Faith. I also have in print the first volume of Bloodshot (which was okayish IIRC), Shadowman (which I found kind of not very good), and Quantum and Woody and Archer & Armstrong (neither of which I've read yet). Though with those print ones I wouldn't be opposed to getting the series in digital if need be as well just to consolidate everything, though it'd of course be lower priority.
So yeah, with that in mind, what should I be looking to grab if I want to catch up on the current Valiant universe, with maximum cost efficiency? Would really appreciate a little help.

Welp, it was expensive, but I am officially 100% caught up on Valiant (I think. I believe there was one title in the list at least that wasn''t in the sale, like something about a Geomancer, and maybe a handful of one shots? But still, yeah). On the plus side, with Dark Horse, Dynamite, DC, and now Valiant essentially having "buy whatever the hell you want from us", and Image also having a damn big sale, the only thing I can imagine proving at all dangerous to my wallet on Comixology is, like, an Invincible sale that catches all the way up (and I'm already caught up to the point that the last sale went up to, so even that wouldn't be too bad).
But yeah, after that, my wallet is going into freaking hibernation for a bit. No more crazy and expensive purchases out of nowhere for me, because I just spent waaaaaaay too much on Comixology when you add together all those sales.

Yikes. How long are you staying that it's $900?I've been taking it slower myself because NYCC is coming up quick and I have to come up with the $900 for the hotel by myself this year. I get paid bi weekly, so there's only about 5 more pays until NYCC

Edit: I can't recall if More than Meets the Eye is on that list, but if not it deserves to be, especially since it's such a damn good comic that's so incredibly easy for people to overlook.
Which book has Live and Times? Volume 4?

I really don't like Wiccan and Hulkling but I understand their importance.That Wiccan story in New Avengers was yawn worthy and he was easily the most boring Young Avenger.
Where is Karolina from Runaways these days? Also Gert
