So many games and DLC is coming out right now, Comics are dead.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

Speaking of, why the hell is Marvel releasing that much Gambit books in winter? Its like hes the new Wolverine

He's got a movie coming out some time soon.

 

[Brian Fellows]

AoA Gambit has been pretty cool so far.

 

[Rhaknar]

Humble Bufy / Angel comic bundle

are those any good? Im a huge fan of the shows

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Black Science was good as hell

 

[Kipp]

shiiiiiiiiii, but nice on the job

good luck on your travels mate

Thanks man! And I'm sure I'll catch you around at some Comic Con again someday. We will reunite.

Kipp! Kipp!

>>>horray!<<<

Woo woo!

We need FilthySlug too. Good luck tearing him away from FancyPaperGAF, though. They're even absorbing Ed these days.

I'll be living near-ish FilthySlug, so I'll be able to physically force him back into the thread.

...Maybe I'll be able to force that photo of me and him out of him too.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Thought this was next year. Has it even started filming yet?

 

[RepairmanJack]

Are we even sure if Channing Tatum is still attached or not? I forget which announcement was last.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Even while its Gambit, I am way more interested in this then in the big X-Men movie. The trailer just looked awful.

This is the truth. Goodness it looks dreadful.

 

[WadiumArcadium]

The Gambit film's been delayed because of rewrites.

Spoiler

Surely it's never getting made.

 

[Brian Fellows]

Black Science was good as hell

Well that should be a nice change of pace.

So many games and DLC is coming out right now, Comics are dead.

Ratchet & Clank and Uncharted 4 are the only games I'm really waiting on, so I have some time to get into more comics.

Are we even sure if Channing Tatum is still attached or not? I forget which announcement was last.

Not sure anymore.

Shooting is delayed right now IIRC. Not sure if I'm remembering correctly, but I thought he cut ties with the production due to script issues or something. I'd need to look it up again.

 

[Interfectum]

Caught up on the new Invincible Iron Man. It's gone from okay to meh. Hopefully it picks up with Spidey.

I'm liking Old Man Logan so far.

Marquez > Deodato was a real big step down.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

What about hentai guy

Hentai guy was too short for this world.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

This is the truth. Goodness it looks dreadful.

I mean, the costumes are just eeeehh. And the character design. And Sansa as Jean.

I am only interested in Jubilee.

It's in times like these that it feels good to not be an X-Men fan.

I bet it does.

 

[WadiumArcadium]

The trailers haven't been good but Singer tends to make decent films. I liked DOFP a lot, though the trailers for DOFP were a lot better than the Apocalypse trailers.

Not looking forward to Sophie Turner's American accent for 2 hours though.

 

[Owzers]

Humble Bufy / Angel comic bundle

worthwhile, though that bundle is seriously lacking in Buffy comics, it's basically Angel stuff. Spike Asylum was good, i liked After the Fall. I say get it.

 

[Mitch]

DOFP dragged on at times, but I enjoyed it a lot more than First Class.

As far as Apocalypse goes, my expectations aren't too high. None of the trailers have done anything for me.

 

[Brian Fellows]

DOFP needed more Blink.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

It is next year, which is why they're releasing them in winter, I think?

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Oh. Didnt get that information, maybe Marvel wasnt able to change their shedule then I guess.

More Gambit next year then! The winter X-Men lineup is very big, too.

 

[Messi]

Who needs the X-Men when we have the Inhumans.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

the x-men movies are so flat and dull and bad

 

[BKatastrophe]

It's in times like these that it feels good to not be an X-Men fan.

Fuck you

Spoiler

I'm sorry I'm just very upset that the current X-books are so okay. Not counting the Wolverine books.

Who needs the X-Men when we have the Inhumans.

I need both

 

[Owzers]

the x-men movies are so flat and dull and bad

toad lightning ect ect agree.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

RIP Gaming

DISGUSTING!

 

[Freezasaurus]

They really are. It's a shame, because I think Marvel could make some great X-Men films if they could include them in the MCU.

 

[my name is ed]

I have never been unfollowed by Birdie, however I have been followed, unfollowed, followed, unfollowed and followed again by a fellow artist for no reason I can tell.

Awesome! Here I am

Followed as well. Im @EdgarUVM

This is all very impressive but can he commit to a monthly?

Kim Jung God is too rich to take lowly comics money

 

[Mitch]

I'll follow you guys. Need more people who talk about comics and not politics.

You can follow me @ServbotMitch. Don't tweet a lot, but when I do it's about beer, WoW, general gaming and random nonsense.

 

[Brian Fellows]

Awwwwwww group hug you guys!

 

[TetraxShards]

RIP Gaming

We failed it in life. We will not fail it in death.

If you see some really weird ass tweets from me in the next hour, they are all being facetious.

 

[Ponn]

I was about to start reading my Secret Wars HC but I know there was quite a bit of build up to this event prior that I didn't read. Should I pick up an Infinity collection and read that first? I don't remember any real feedback on that event one or the other but I remember it tying into the whole overall storyline that ended with Secret Wars.

If you really want to go that route, read everything by Hickman what is Avengers... Also Fantastic Four/Future Foundation if you want to go the long route.

That sounds terribly ominous

 

[Tawney Bomb]

That sounds terribly ominous

He's probably going to be tweeting about how much he enjoys comics.

It's a lot of reading, but I went back and read Hickman's Avengers before starting SW and it definitely felt more satisfying than if I'd jumped straight in.

You might want to read up on it a bit even if you don't fancy reading it.

 

[Owzers]

Birdie is only back because of Whispers of the Old Gods hearthstone expansion talk. You guys thought it was comics?

 

[Ponn]

I just saw the Avengers Time Runs Out collection up for preorder and thought that was odd to be coming out now after Secret Wars. I've already read alot of Hickman Fantastic Four but not alot of the Future Foundation stuff. I was actually thinking about picking up the Hickman FF Omnibus vol. 2 since its still available and covers almost all of that stuff I didn't get to.

It's a lot of reading, but I went back and read Hickman's Avengers before starting SW and it definitely felt more satisfying than if I'd jumped straight in.

Ok thanks, yup thats me. I will hold off then and pick up that Avengers collection and get Infinity and that FF Omnibus.

 

[Weiss]

Maybe the Gambit movie will inspire a reissue of the Asmus/Mann Gambit series because I want it so bad but Vol. 1 is out of print.

I have the first collection of his late 90s ongoing, and it's basically why Gambit never lasts long on his own; it's boring, plodding and totally monotonous. Maybe the latter half of the series is better.

The mid-00s Layman series was good, though.

Also: X-Men 92! X-Men 92! Everyone buy it because it's awesome!

 

[BrightLightLava]

Do you think that DC's 2.99 push will knock Marvel's prices down?

Also, do we know the page count of DC's books that are going twice monthly?
