Sad but true. Planet Hulk was fantastic. I also liked Son of Hulk, since they continued telling the story on planet Sakaar.

The current Hulk run is really good.

I'm not sure it's possible to overstate just how awful an event AXIS was

Quite a few indestructible hulk ishs were decent.
That was mostly down to the writer going with Banner's Awesome Adventures, tho. The ishs where he was stuck in green and mean were meh.
Yeah but Hobgoblin is amazing.
All of the tie-ins were good IMO.

That issue sucked. It's time for OP magneto to return and start building an army.
Ya know what? Let's cancel magneto and get a doom series. He hasn't had one since doom 2099 (that still needs the digital treatment)

Its a different character, but Duggan rights a good Nova IMO and every once in a while Rider gets shown some respect.

Darth Vader #1 was a good read, even though I'm kinda sick of stuff that takes place in the same time frame as the original trilogy. Bring on dat Star Wars Legacy era.
Is there any lady characters in the books that have lightsabers? Like...two at once maybe?
Or hell..even the movies?

In the old EU, there was Mara Jade, the Emperor's Hand:
Also Anakin Skywalker's padawan Ahsoka Tano, from the Clone Wars TV series:
One of the best things about that series IMO.
There were lots of other lady Jedis in the Prequel era like Shaak Ti and Luminara Undull but they were mostly minor characters.
EDIT: Oh, I forgot Darth Traya from KOTOR II. She had THREE lightsabers:
So much swag.

Srsly, I think the comics would be more Messi's speed for that. If Marvel puts out a Star Wars Legacy omni, it's so bought. Darth Talon is still so HHNNNNGGGGG.
That was completely un intentional. Accidental lewdness.

This cartoon lady looks cool to me. Is Clone Wars on netflix?
It makes me sad that most of the other badass women were minor characters.

With you, it's never accidental.
In the U.S., it is. I plan to start it and Arrow once I'm done with JLU. Not sure about the U.K. (you're British, right?).

It is. My recommendation would just jump to season 2 to start. Season one wanders around trying to figure itself out. And to much jar jar. It's the only good thing to come out of the prequels
Usually it is on purpose. I will give you that.
I have the US netflix. Can I start with Clone Wars? Will I be lost?

All six seasons of Star Wars: The Clone Wars are on Netflix US I think, so you can use a proxy or Hola or something. The final season was only on Netflix IIRC.

*shrugs* just watch the movies already

You might need context from Stars Wars Eps I and II. On the other hand, it's Eps I and II.
I really don't like watching movies that aren't love stories. Even less so if it is like 6 movies.
Thor #7: Being the last issue i pre-ordered, i have no regrets dropping the book and i don't really care about reading it on MU either. Thor incessantly whining about whispergate and new thor's identity does not make for an entertaining relaunch of the series, this is a continuation of Aaron's mediocre Original Sin plotting. Random 3/10.

Just watch ep 4-6. They're fun pulpy adventures with excitement, iconic villians, romance, amazing music. They're considered classics for a reason.

You wouldn't need to watch all six movies to get The Clone Wars, or even to get the best experience of the Star Wars movies.
Don't worry about it, Messi. If you don't want to watch Stars Wars stuff, don't watch it.
Gotta wait until the FF movie is out and then maybe we can have a Doom solo book. I feel it would sell really well.
Doom was fucking awesome in Brubaker's Winter Soldier, he gave no shits.

Sometimes when I am reading a physical comic (or a book), I get this involuntary urge to highlight some text and select "search on google". I am not a smart man.

One more issue and they would have revealed everything, then Thor-verse starts up.
At best it will be a book that i think is awful that also tells you who the new Thor is. I will inevitably check it out on MU to see how Aaron finished it but not not eager to read more atm. Thor Cops intrigues me more.

Wow, Messi and I couldn't be further apart on this. Most romance stuff in movies makes me wretch, but I think that's just my immaturity. Any kissing or similar in a film has me reaching for the sick bag most of the time. It's pure cringe.
I've only seen 8 of the 50 romantic comedies in this list for instance.
And before anyone says "you'll sit through the worst of violence but not any showing of skin" I can't watch most horror stuff either. I like the ridiculous ones with goofy villains like Nightmare on Elm Street or Friday the 13th (I got into both of those after reading Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash 1 and 2), or comedies like Army of Darkness or Shaun of the Dead, but most of the time, NOPE NOPE NOPE.
