I don't think I've ever seen a more lop-sided poll
To be fair these books that are also coming out are the books that are still running from new 52 and are ending. Those and Scooby.

And none of them will be as good as Invincible.
Yeah, Joey Q and Tom Brevoort can try to talk their way out of that one all they want but it's pretty clear.
Hopefully in the new Spidey game Peter and MJ are together, given that he's an adult.
I will forever say NO to that question. Peter x Anna Maria. NAO.
Maybe it has 8 more pages!
It has 40 pages.
Hey, that's Spock's girl! Poor Otto...

40pg vs 32pg or 40pg vs 22pg...

I used to think yes, but man. Peter don't deserve MJ anymore.
Otto X Anna Maria

Stark x MJ pls.
Probably because of Dan Slott.
Will we see a new Spidey writer in 2017? Time will tell.
It does? Suicide Squad has Jim Lee on art and that is 2.99. I think we can all agree that Jim Lee > Scott Snyder in the arts/book business.
Nope

Judging everyone not in favor of Peter x MJ
Peter x Black Cat is the only other acceptable choice if they can't be together

I am totally fine with 40 dollars for five pages
nah, Stark's being a douche in Spidey's book for some reason.

This last week, they had nine books at $2.99, and six at $3.99 or higher. That includes the $6.99 Dark Knight Returns one-shot. But you're correct in that All Star will probably be our first Rebirth book higher than $2.99, if you ignore the wild pricing of the DC Rebirth second printing.
When do these ongoing New 52 books end? Seems like a few don't have an end in sight.
Amen.
I think some of them run into August/September. Others are just finishing the 12 issue run.
Vertigo was never included in the rebirth stuff so those books are 3.99 and will continue to be under the new banner. Hanna Barbera stuff too. Rebirth is a rolling relaunch of sorts. I'd say by November the changeover will be done or close to.
Yup

That's fair, I suppose my beef is with All Star, but that will be easily ignored at that price range until it hits a Comixology sale.

Peter x MJ is the only thing that makes sense cuz they got waaaay too much history, and every excuse they have for them NOT being together is always trash. And every love interest afterward is destined to be viewed as "not MJ" forever.
Black CatxSpidey is sexy in that rule-breaking way, but ultimately their morals are opposed to each other and their personal lives will never intermingle for a long-running relationship to work.

Tempted to pre-order Doom Patrol #1 at my store. Would be only my second ever single issue ongoing series after Sandman Overture.
I am all for waiting if the cost is too high. I will wait for reviews and maybe still wait for a trade because if it ends up being great that will make for an awesome hardcover.

MJ and Peter should be together. The way its set up now is fustrating and pointless. If that is the other option I would rather they be together. But I also ship Peter and Black Cat

Every scene Peter and MJ have together is shit now because the writer - usually Slott - always seems to feel like they have to play up why they aren't together. It's fucking annoying.

I always liked that both survivors of the same awful shit. Gwen died, Harry went crazy then died, Jean DeWolf died, Ned Leeds died, Kraven's hunt, clones, alien costumes, etc, etc. They both emerged, not unscathed, but together.
This I can agree with. It's so fucking cringey.

I am totally shipping Tony x MJ.
Likely, I get the feeling Slott's days are numbered and once the MCU Spidey comes, someone will strip Spidey of the Parker Industries bullshit and and place him back as a common man superhero. Maybe MJ and Peter will get back together and start fresh, no marriage until JQ is out.
I've read three trades so far. All been good to great. My favourite has been the Confession trade
DC is doing reworkings of Scooby Doo and Wacky Races, among others. Has anyone read the first issues for these comics?
I'm intrigued by the two titles listed above. Giffen and DeMatteis are writing Scooby Doo, and while I generally like their collaborations, some of their stuff (including their work on Marvel's Defenders) was godawful.

Just read the
of New Avengers.
WAT
Both are off to good starts. 2 issues for Scooby, 1 for Wacky Racelands. I bet you wont believe what the wacky Raceland book is like. Art is really cool in Scoobys book.
Kaiju/Pacific Rim parody issue

Both are, freakishly, actually not bad? Scooby is the most Giffen-ass book I've read in a minute, all his tics on display, but still... Scooby & the gang in a B-movie monster apocalypse? Ton of fun. Still doing groundwork stuff though.
Wacky Raceland is a weird weird book. Weirder than Scooby. But I think I love it. Very strange beast.
They haven't said anything like that. I'd guess it's just taking a break after this arc. Likely back in a few months.

But she's a strong independent woman and she doesn't want to be tied down, m8.
Try Wayward. It's about a group of Teens in Japan with powers. Beautiful art and fun story.

So you're looking for an Image book that is very unlike an Image book?

She just doesn't want to deal with Spider-Man drama.
I'll check it out.
That's one of the reasons I asked lol.

Okay, so are you talking about books with characters that aren't dark emo-goth tweenagers or is it required that the story is all happy and stuff too?
It doesn't really matter on second thought lol.
