Can't unsee Gambit
yup, Silk all day everyday
I would, without a doubt, take another 4 years of Bendis over Hopeless.

Aww. Sounded weird but interesting.

I have to be honest most of these are pretty underwhelming. Even New 52 had a lot of interesting stuff like Lemire on Animal Man, Snyder on Swamp Thing, Morrison on Action, etc.
These marvel announcements feel like bargain basement creative teams and concepts.

Bendis is a good writer. The problem he has is the same one he's always had, and that's that his writing is extremely predictable and formulaic.
I liked his X-Men stuff, but I really wasn't feeling All-New when it got deep into the run, meaning the past three to six months. Uncanny was stellar, though.
Yes, for the most part, absolutely. But the ones that sound cool sound really cool.

I can understand the idea, but in this day and age, it's nigh impossible to see it through to fruition. You have to give people a little more incentive to visit the brick and mortar stores than "information that will be released an hour later on the internet or earlier!"
Having a retailer "shake with rage" that the news slipped is a bit of an extreme reaction to be fair. The people who are coming in to comic stores on a Wednesday morning are coming in regardless and I doubt it would have made any difference in a stores overall sales.

I dont think youre in the minority here actually. Most of us like Bendis on X-Men

To be fair, I think that a lot of the big writers have just left to go on to bigger and brighter things (or found themselves at odds with Marvel and DC). The allure of television and movies where you can make MUCH MUCH more has too strong of a pull.
Even I liked Bendis on X-Men.
Because if he's busy shitting up X-Men, he can't keep running Avengers characters into the ground. Now if only we could get him off Cosmic.

NoSilk wouldn't go bad. She is not like that. Marvel don't.
Yessssss Marvel, do it. DOOOOO IIIIIIIIIIIIIIT.
I'd buy that for $1. Or $4. I don't think it's going to happen, though. She existed pretty much just to be used as a Deus ex machina for when Bendis was done with his run.

There was one really cool announcement, but it was actually a huge lie
And here I thought everyone loved evil Spider people here. Superior Sinister Silk. This is the future you chose.
I feel like Silk, more than most other pitches, will have more going on than this basic pitch tells us though.
EDIT:
Uh-oh. Duggan replacing Remender on Uncanny Avengers.
At least Duggan's stuff is largely pretty good.

When was the last time the Hood showed up? When he was trying to get the Infinity Gauntlet?
I don't know..... I don't know.... The team is what's bothering me.
I like Ryan Stegman though.

What an odd roster...not sure how I feel about this one.

Deadpool and Spider-Man on a team book?
E: Didn't even take into account Johnny on there too! Unless its WW2 Torch.
Remember when this was the Unity Squad that had superhumans and mutants working together? And now there's literally only two mutants on the team? Haha, that's a good joke, well done, funny Deadpool man.
Peter and Johnny on the same roster makes it amazing.
“Fighting for Humanity, Inhumanity, Mutants and Deadpool”
The relaunch.
Since Miles is Spider Man, they gotta make it clear.

I don't know, man. Peter, Johnny and Wade might be a little too much.
