I though it's implied that Battleworld has probably existed for years, considering they seem to have some infrastructure sorted out.
Low Vol.1 comes out tomorrow. Here are 5 reasons why you should buy it:
1. Rick Remender
He writes cool stuff. You may have read his cool stuff. You may have liked his cool stuff. They are cool and when you read them you feel cool. Deadly Class? Cool. Black Science? Cool. Low? Equally cool.
2. Greg Tocchini
That art bruh.
3. Story
It's like Bioshock meets Waterworld if Waterworld was good. I might be stretching with that Waterworld example but it's the first thing I thought of. It's set in the future where humans are living underwater because the surface is fucked from the sun and a mom trying to save her family from pirates.
4. Price
It's $10 and you get 6 issues which is one complete story arc. It's cheap yo!
5. Uhhhhh
If you check it out I will love you.
Will do. Excited.

I have two different classes right now for which I have stuff to do, I was planning on doing said stuff right now, but essential readings for that stuff to do has not been put online by my lecturers. What are the odds. I understand you're busy and all, lecturers, but I would've guessed you would have put these up last night.
Whatever, more time for GAF.

I've been reading Daredevil: Born Again on MU, and this is a pretty awesome storyline. Pretty wordy, but that's par for the course for both comics of the era and Frank Miller comics in particular, no?

This looks incredible. That creative team, and a story set in a Marvel-ised Mega-City One?
BOUGHT!
Luke Cage's grandkid as Judge Dredd? I'm so in.
This is the coolest thing about these Secret Wars tie-ins. Creators can just do whatever.

I've been pushing Low since day 1. Do you love me the most?
Same.
The theme is hope in the face of complete hopelessness, if that gives anyone any additional motivation to check it out.
I think this is the first Secret Wars thing that I'm super interested in? but yeah this is gonna be dope
e: oh wait E IS FOR EXTINCTION and that dinosaurs comic too
This looks cool, Mighty Avengers was cool. I will check this out.

much better said than ol me
Wasn't there supposed to be dinosaurs in this book? I swear when it was announced there was a mention of dinosaurs.
Is this Prowler?

She must have done something good to put her on the Avenger radar.
We'll see as we reach her Last Days book.
I personally think she's getting promoted too soon.

You are my most loved. <3
Yes.
That's totally going to be Miles in the front. Falcon Cap obviously. Iron Man. Nova maybe?
Gross, I think Kamala's book is alright, but it bothers me when teen characters get thrown into the big leagues, especially this fast. I don't like the idea of her being an Avenger.
Similarly, looks like Sam. I guess he was made an honorary Avenger during Axis, but still, don't like seeing him here for similar reasons.
Fuck Miles, he's terrible. Maybe a writer other than Bendis can do something with him.
I do like Lady Thor and Uncle Sam, though. We'll see what that Iron Man and unidentified other is; I kinda hope it's Rescue here to stay again.

Ah, ok. I was a dozen pages behind in the thread and didn't go over them.

can't have a half blinded dog for a kid's toy?
boo to that.
This is why I think it's some kind of training squad. Not just for the teens but new comers to the game like new Thor and possibly Rescue.

Actually, I'd be super into that idea, sure. I now 100% hope you're right.
I love Kamala, but I don't love the fact that she's getting pulled in a bunch of different directions editorially and will likely be split between multiple different writers when G Willow Wilson has hardly had a dozen issues to solidify her personality/voice. Miles Morales has at least had a pretty decent amount of time "in the oven" through his solo series.
It has two eyes.
At this point I'm worried someone else is going to end up writing the first meeting of Carol and Kamala because crossovers.

Right. That's not the Pizza Dog I fell in love with.

At which point one reminds the other that, as far as the average mahvel joe is concerned, Namor and Friends got that incursion shit on lockdown, and Steve Rogers is nothing more than a cray old man that went to town on Philosophical Terrax with a walking cane.
It probably is or else we wouldn't see Captain America on the team.
Speaking of, I was promised a reckoning and I better get it.
As longer I am thinking about this, as more come I to the conclusion that this is true.
Its gonna be a all female Avengers Ongoing.
I love Low. Like most Remender stuff I've read, it's slow to catch on but it's definitely hitting its stride right now.
Yep, will be my first Marvel Selects figure.

Captain Falcon, new Thor, Rescue, Spider-Miles, Nova, Ms. Marvel.
This is an Avengers Academy replacement, with Sam training mostly new heroes.
