Not sold at all. Wish they weren't doing it tbh.

Yeah I don't like the description. Kinda devaluing love in order to tell their story.

My problem is I don't like Matt Hawkins writing. He seems to have attached himself to this as his other books fail.

I'm sure swingers can love each other. I just don't know if that is compelling reading.

It could be decent, you never know.

The most valid of points.


DC has no idea what the fuck to do with Roy and Jason, clearly. They also insist on having a book where Jason and Roy team up and, like it or not, it's happening again based on the Rebirth line-up that was posted a month or so ago. I genuinely want to like these characters and I feel that something interesting can be done with them, but Lobdell is not the one who's going to elevate them. One of the most crippling things about that book is its awful team chemistry, and Simone knows how to write that like a champ. Now, I don't care if it's her or someone else, but for the love of god get someone who can write good chemistry on a team book. The rest will follow.

All of this is on point.

For some reason, the book seems to be indestructible. DC should capitalize on that and make it actually good.

While I am indifferent to Roy, the concept of Red Hood is great and I want to see writers do a better job with him.

The few times he has been written for an extended period of time by anyone else have exposed some of the potential inherent with him.

Hell, even Lobdell himself has managed a few decent moments.

Marvel's finally getting rid of those horrible mutants.

well I got beat lol

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Marvel just confirming what we already know

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Finally they can get to Planet X

 

[dan2026]

Marvel's grudge against Fox really is like a child throwing a tantrum to get their way.

Creative integrity? What's that?

We could maybe wait until we know what this actually is... But lets better throw shit for things we know nothing about.

Hyping events two events out. GG marvel.

I'm curious to see what comes out of this.

I really doubt it's Marvel's choice when it cvomes to what they can and can't do.

Hyping events two events out. GG marvel.

This probably won't be a full fledged event.

I hope DC doesn't alienate possible new readers from Rebirth. They need to find a happy medium between the readers they lost because of New 52 and people trying to get into their books.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

I honestly don't know what to expect. They've culled their ranks enough.

I don't think this will be an issue. They seem to just be returning to the characters in their more recognizable forms, and not necessarily the pre-New 52 state. In any case, there should be plenty of places for new readers to start.

Strange, only Marvel does these unnecesary changes to the comics.

hmm

 

[Rhaknar]

quoting myself

let me start this with saying im a huge x-men fanboy, probably one of the few left (certainly on ComicGaf)

that being said, I would actually be impressed if they actually had the balls to go ahead with a story that actually killed off mutants from the Marvel Universe. It would be so incredibly petty that it would actually be impressive

They wont tho and this is just another been there done that event

 

[tim1138]

Welcome to ANAD Marvel X-Men, hope you survive the experience!

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

I'm so sorry.

 

[Rhaknar]

what if its Death of Adam X

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

look at this shit

Huh. I own the one on the left. Good stuff

 

[frye]

I was looking at Princess Jellyfish the other day. How is it?

i liked it a lot but it depends on how much you can stand certain shojo manga i think. there's a few episodes of the anime streaming on funimation apparently so you can check those out and see how you like it

 

[dan2026]

I really hope Rebirth fixes a lot of the crap the New 52 brought in.

I have read some good stories post 52, but somehow nothing felt quite right like it did before the relaunch.

Most of the worst changes were eventually smoothed and soft ret-conned.

It'll probably end up being a mixture of the two.

i view the DC universe the same way i view Spider-man after he made a deal with the devil that got rid of his marriage: ruined. I never really had an attachment to either though so i don't care that much, but i'd prefer DC not act like the Houston Rockets.

The most 90's thing in the world.

 

[JTripper]

If I wanted to get into Green Lantern, what's the recommended reading in the most convenient trade or omnibus way? Is Johns' run basically all I need to read?

I feel the DCU can still be saved.
I was enjoyed it so much pre 52, that whole mess was such a kick in the face for me.

Xavier's about to die for the 10th time.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

hmm

Oh, I understand now. I have seen the costume yesterday by the way.

And when people here tell me, that they now make Superman wear his MoS costume, I think I can trust them, so this is a little bit different then shitting around because of a teaser picture.

 

[Rhaknar]

lol. Yes, yes it does Johnny

 

[Lashley]

No idea what movie the reviewers watched because this was brilliant.

Ben Affleck was amazing as Batman. Setup for the justice league movie was great and the music was fantastic.

Also, there was definitely intentional humor, so no idea wtf the reviewers were on about there either.

This is the event that Emma returns in along with Scott.

Yes. On fire with rage that such a tacky character exists. Even I feel the effects of that power of his at this very moment.

This is the event that Emma returns in along with Scott.

And then they both die.

 

[Messi]

I don't see the X-Men dying. That would be hilarious tho. The Inhumans will save them I'm the end. Quote me on that.

its actually called "Death of X-hate"

 

[whatsinaname]

So I mentioned the other day of a jump in quality in writing on the Moon Knight collection I am reading. And now it looks like Sienkiewicz is on art.

Tragicomedy - Loving the DD recaps.

Also, off for some Korean BBQ followed by BvS. See y'all on the other side.

about halfway through that run he goes from being a Neal Adams clone to Bill Sienkiewicz, so that's pretty dope

Maybe a X-Organisation will disband while Cyclops returns and another team is founded.
