COMICS!!! |OT| June 2017 - AquaBDSM : Sunstone but with dolphins.

Chip's Spidey #1 wasn't bad but it was only funny enough to make me smirk a bit. If the story with
Peter's sister
starts going anywhere I might pick it back up but I am dropping for now because the book is like 99% meh quips.

Probably not the right place for this but I got to work with Tom Lyle today. He was an artist on Spider-Man Clone Saga and Maximum Carnage among others. Nicest guy in the world!
 
Just finished this week's Daredevil and Soule is a genius. He's using his lawyer knowledge to the best of his ability and it's crazy looking back at how he set the current story up. Matt was absolutely glorious in this issue.

Daredevil is by far one of my favorite ongoings currently and Soule has elevated himself in my eyes this year.



This is good to know. Time to catch up.

I love Spidey / Torch stuff. I also love superheroes doing mundane shit, like eat a sandwich in this case... on the ledge of a building, but still :p

Panther's gauntlet drop in this week's Cap has been one of Secret Empire's highlights, hands down


Marvel has announced their Legacy announcement for tomorrow. Weird to do this after the solicit for the main issue is out. DC at least streamed the whole Rebirth announcement from a con while announcing teams and bringing them up on stage to talk about their books.

excited for the announcement & lineups but yeah, this could've gone more smoothly
 
so why are joker and riddler fighting ?

Joker can't laugh without his punchline (killing Batman), Riddler can't live without answering his greatest riddle (killing Batman). They know the one can't do other other, cause that'd defeat their purpose. So they fight.

Damn, never read an Aquaman comic, but Aquaman #25 was killer. Love the artist, so I decided to pick it up, and I'm glad the story is just as good.

I keep seeing Legacy announcements and I still have no clue what the hell it is. Is it an event, a cross over, a re-launch of a bunch of books, mini-serieses, a mini-series, one-shots, a one-shot or something else?

If we lose Gwenpool, Jessica Jones or New Guardians I'll be so upset.
Guardians and Gwenpool aren't going anywhere. Jessica Jones could probably go either way with Bendis doing Defenders.

It's a one-shot leading into an initiative that will be making changes to the line.

Am I supposed to know why no one knows Daredevil's identity or is that a later reveal? I'm on issue 4 of the current run.

I thought Secret Empire was the last big event for a while?

A one-shot spinning out of Generations which is spinning out of the final extra Secret Empire issue.

You'll see.

They're already promoting the "Spider Event Of 2018" in the latest solicits so that was never going to happen.

They're connected but Legacy and the books are the ones being treated as the jumping on point. Like how you weren't expected to read the Death of New 52 Superman story.

Yeah, according to Marvel they'll be taking a break from big events, so no linewide stories taking everything over.

So i guess I read Daredevil now.

soules run isn't half as good as waid/bru/etc but still enjoyable as it goes...that first new villain was terrible though. the current arc seems like the best one yet so far.

yeah it was literally the last arc before this one so you'll know when you get there
as far as putting genies back in the bottle it's far better than say One More Day but still not great

Bendis Defenders is not Bendis Jessica Jones. I need the Jessica focus and art.

yeah I can agree with this, it's been good having the original team back and it's one of the few lanes Bendis still shines in

But don't you find it funny how we got the late info for Generations with it saying it's spinning out of Secret Empire and then a few days later we get the PR that Legacy is spinning out of Generations?

I blame spencer for needing like.11 chapters to tell a story - we did this with secret war bleeding all over ANAD in the early months but that was Hickman at least...and I say that as someone still enjoying secret empire so far

Cool cool cool.

This is so true. Defenders and JJ are completely different animals.

I still like Secret Empire. :/

We already knew those things so it didn't really register with me.
