pretending to be Ock again and Black Cat's subsequent reaction to it

It seems like simple solution for Peter to just let Anna Maria take more control of his company.

Ho-ly shit. Outcast is going to be my book of the month, can already tell. That.... was.... creepy. I almost didn't pick it up, the preview pages didn't do it for me. In the end, a 2.99, 60 page story won and I picked it up. Kirkman has another winner here. Go buy this book!

So what do I read next?
Batman: Black Mirror
X-Men: The Dark Phoenix Saga
Astonishing X-Men
Green Lantern: Secret Origin
I read GLSO shortly after it came out way back when but hardly remember it. Also read the first two or so issues of Astonishing at release but don't remember it at all.

Not really sure what the big deal is.
....but I could have totally called your answer to Tim's question. ;p
Too many books in the pull right now to be adding a new series to it, I'll probably pick it up in trade if the quality mentains. Glad you liked it though.

Think I'm finally going to drop Revival
I've been getting less interested with each issue for a while now

Hell yeah--Rudy's work on Marvel Knights: Spider-Man was incredible. It's a hell of a little story by him and Matt Kindt, and seriously, more people need to check it out.
I'm going to grab that Annual when I go grab my books tomorrow--thanks for the heads up! Is it a standalone story?

It's pretty much a stand-alone story thats ties in the current status of strange in the main new avengers book so give it go!

Aquaman is just a title that delivers a fun story every month. Jeff Parker has got it! It seems like the art just keeps on getting better and better. Really nice colors this issue.

Ms. Marvel #4
By now, I thought it might've lost some steam but Ms. Marvel is still going strong. It's one of the few $2.99 Marvel titles that I'm still pulling and man, does it deliver! I think what makes this book so interesting is that Kamala Kahn is still learning about how her powers and she's still figuring out how far she can go. What makes it fun is that she's still a dork at heart and expresses it as such through references such as the one panel below. I just picked up #5 from my LCS so I'll be reading that soon.

Damn, Red Lanterns delivered a gut-wrenching story. This is such a great book. I wished more people besides GH and I read it.

I used to read it but I culled it from my too-big pull list. Can't read everything. I'll definitely pick up the trade, though. Spoil me, what happened?
But is the Annual a good read? I flipped thru it at the shop, but put it back on the rack because I don't like inconsequential annuals. (I feel Uncanny Avengers Annual was fluff, and I love that series.)

Just to make it brief, on phone in bed. Atrocious has declared war on the Lanterns. He has destroyed their home planet, drained the lake of blood, and turned Rankoor against them. In the process of fighting Rankoor, Bleez falls to critical condition. Guy knows they have to battle him. Feeling guilty that Kara (Supergirl) is new to the team and has no stock in this fight, ask her to go her own way. She reluctantly accepts and his on her way to meet Hal to learn about getting the Red ring off. The moral of the team is at all-time low.

I read it and thought it was great
It is a good read and ending result is quite imporant for strange in new avengers.
Absolutely. I love Dr. Strange.

Another Winner? Kirkman did TWD and it got really really bad halfway trough.
And Outcast sounds like Hellblazer.

Invincible...calls for that infamous bad boys.gif
It's the only Lantern book I still read.
I didn't like the comic either. If it wasn't spidey, I'd consider dropping it.

really bums me out hearing so much negativity on the new AMS, i kinda fell off after spock's run closed out myself but was hoping Slott kept the magic going.
how's the new Morales book? a good jump-on point for the character?

Only heard good things about the Morales Book.
I haven bought ASM yet. But even if its bad i will continue to read it until issue 6 before i decide to give it up.

I only read one new issue today and it was ASM.

I am not really liking the new direction with Peter, his character seems hollow. His casual nature of facing problems is pretty flat so far. His indifference about his relationships is the most infuriating they have ever been.
These first three issues don't inspire a lot confidence in this series so far.
Also, I am kind of comparing it to the first three issues of "Superior" which was able to establish itself incredibly well.

Bravest Warriors was delightful
I agree. David Baldeon drew a few pages apparently and i didn't even notice! I hated his work on the last issues of Scarlet Spider. Either he got a bad colorist last time or a really good one this time (could be the latter, they should keep Redmond bc she's good)
I only got to flip open the first page so far but that was incredible as awesome. Saga has the best opening pages sometimes. I giggled like last month.
Some big hitters missing the top 3 it seems. Great month for comics, gotta make room for Harley and Saga I suppose.
This is incredibly nice of you considering the people on eBay who are scalping twice the price for it. It's what makes this place so cool sometimes.

Can anyone give me advice on where to start to get into red lanterns. I've never read a lantern book before. Also is Supergirl worth picking up again?
Since no one else responded, read Dark Phoenix.
