Defenders of Asgard, pls Gillen

Warren Ellis secret Avengers was so good for only six issues .

Remender picked up that ball and ran with it, really made it into something special.

 

[ThyMusicMan]

Yeah, that's a one-off by that team. The new creative team starts with issue #8

Sooo., #8 will be different writer and artist then #7? sorry im a little slow ha

It really was one of the better hand-offs I've seen lately.

 

[arkon]

Yeah. Basically the new ongoing creative team is Kyle & Yost plus Ed McGuiness on art. That's why I was wondering what you meant initially (wasn't sure if you knew), because #7 probably won't be indicative of what you'll find in the series going forward. So might be worth checking out #8 still.

 

[Dr_LawyerCop]

Batman and Frankenstein #31: Whatever you're going to do to me, Tomasi, my body is ready. Also, a great issue.

I fucking love Tomasi. I just read trades, so I'm behind in Batman and Robin, but the cover for 31 Batman and Frankenstein looks so great. I can't wait till I can catch up. That's a great creative team on that book.

To free the Justice League from the Firestorm Matrix, they needed someone who could use the Lasso of Truth and had a connection to Diana. They were going to use Steve Trevor but he was out of commission after the events of Forever Evil: ARGUS, they didn't know who could do it until Batman volunteered.

...When it shows up in the Bat-books, give me a holler. Until then it's just Johns messing around as usual, pulling rabbits out of hats for cheap thrills. I mean, has there been any foreshadowing of this at all?

Only thing I remember is Bats using the Watchtower to creepily spying on Supes and WW on Earth after they first got together in Justice League. Mind you there is still an entire five years of in universe time in that book that is still a blank slate.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Warren Ellis is a no good jabroni. Im gonna control his ass like the supply chain.



Gotta love Marvel editors, "hey brahs i wanna be off this book now." Waid can suck it too. Relaunches Hulk TWICE ghen leaves after four issues. Treating these characters like freakin' Walamrt workers man.

I seeee,,, damn you!! I coulda happily walked away thinking I did the right thing, that that was the new creative team... now I feel guilty and owe them one more shot. lol

The new Sunstone page (finally) was good. Got a few chuckles out of some of the faces they used plus the

Spoiler

selfie towards the end was cute

. Hopefully the next page isn't 2 months away.

 

[Zombine]

I knew some of these killer Marvel books from the past few months would end up being short lived. When half of them end I don't know what I'll fill my list with.

amazing x-men was sick. kathryn immonen is a rising comics superstar.

Thor and southern bastards

 

[ThyMusicMan]

Ordered Batman #31 Mike Allred Variant. Wanted to get at least one of these Allred's Variant Covers

 

[Vyer]

Thor and southern bastards

Oh sorry I meant for Marvel. I left off Thor accidentally but I was wondering off there was anything else after leaving Amazing.

 

[Supermanisdead]

yo, big hero 6 will be the comic movie of the year in 2015. im sorry dc, better push butman and superturd back to 2016.

 

[Caspel]

So I just read Amazing X-Men #7 ... That was fucking horrible. Instantly dropping this. Was already debating it, that creative team change was not for the better. Imo

So terrible! Read it this morning and will most likely drop it, too. I'll probably flip through #8 to be sure there isn't any of the same garbage in the next issue.

 

[lordfroakie]

And what happened in Forever Evil?

Spoiler

Lex figured out Batman's identity with the help of the internet.

Spoiler

New 52 Ted Korn!

Loving the new miracleman comics! Is mm ever going to be in modern MU?

Sorry, Frozen was a fluke. Disney movies are going to start sucking balls again.

UK comic-gaffers, where do you tend to buy trades from? TYx

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Big Hero Six is 2015!?!? Whhhhaaaaaaaa,?!?!?!?

 

[KoruptData]

American Vampire might be my comic of the week. Only have Saga left to read.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Frozen is a terrible movie.

Frozen is a terrible movie.

the only time you don't gush over something like a horny schoolgirl is frozen??? really?

Tangled and Wreck It Ralph were better movies.

 

[Chinner]

welps, southern bastards #2 is out next week, as well as trees #1.

 

[Macmanus]

Tangled and Wreck It Ralph were better movies.

Correct from an artistic standpoint. Incorrect from a $$$ standpoint.

On topic; East of West has now spent two issues almost doing something (still love it more than anything) and Saga re-opens with a sploosh.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Inhuman is out next week. I give Warren ellis six issues before he gets disinterested in plants like he did white space. His punk ass wouldn't last a week working at Walmart.

Ultimate X-Men redeemed.

Just started this Cable arc. It's awesome. And you guys told me to stop in the 60s. Come on.

EDIT: Prof is in love with Jean too? Duder's like 60 and she's not even 20. Wut

 

[cablenathan]

Great question! I'd love to know too.

I get em from my local FPI store.
Amazon too for some pre-order titles, especially if they are 40% off rrp which happens the odd time.

Your on the path of the dark side brah, your hatred runs strong.

as generic as it sounds, see if your local town or city has one. support local business brah, even if it is slightly more expensive.

alternatively, http://stores.ebay.co.uk/A-PLACE-IN-SPACE seems ok.

 

[KoruptData]

Read Saga.........hmmmm.

Marvel book of the week - Daredevil
DC book of the week - Batman Eternal
Indie book of the week - American Vampire

Justice League and Saga were in heavy consideration.

I liked UXM up until that point as well, but you're very close to where it hit a tipping point for me.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

I'm seeing it through to the end whether you like it or not!!!

Spoiler

I was about to stop reading and then I saw Cable was coming up and continued. Enjoyed that arc.

Uh oh.

Do they go back to Cable at all? Or explain what they meant about some of the X-Men? Like Bobby being a boss in the future or anything?

It's been a while and I don't know the exact issue you're at. My main disappointment was that a lot of the seeding that had been done was thrown away for the sake of a rushed resolution at some point. See it through though, would love to hear your take.

Yes, though it leads into Justice League United

I really want that Infinity Gauntlet, although I'd probably just scream Thanos quotes from Marvel Super Heroes if I got it.

"THANOS REIGNS!"

While he's a solid artist, the amount of time it takes him to draw a page is ridiculous.

 

[Zombine]

I want a book with Ellis and Joe Mad on it. It would have the shortest run ever. First issue would be one page, and half of it would be blank.

 

[multivac]

Okay, I'm not missing a Chew sale on Comixology for a third time even after a super-expensive 23 title week! Question though, is Revival worth catching up with during the sale? The first issue was pretty damn good, but I always hear lots of talk that the series has gone nowhere.

 

[Freezasaurus]

Question though, is Revival worth catching up with during the sale? The first issue was pretty damn good, but I always hear lots of talk that the series has gone nowhere.

I just dropped Revival from my pull-list. It's still a solid book, but it isn't at the level of quality it was in the first two story arcs. Probably just going to trade-wait it now.
