Those are a steal for $20. Your Darkseid, the Doom, and Spawn are my favorites.

Yeah I saw these earlier. Jordan Boyd has done some great color work on a few books. Complete steal for these. I'd like to see more comics go for the watercolor look.
Good lord
Waid writes a really, really, really good Mr. Fantastic.
Doom? Not so much.
I think he admitted that he hates the fanbase that Doom has gotten over the years and wanted to return Doom to an actual bad guy then a anti-hero or such.
Unfortunately it turns out that a majority of F4 fans are also Doom fans, so it didn't really catch on. Not to mention how Doom is now the literal equivalent to God at the moment.

I like that run quite a bit, actually. What you're getting there is a desperate Doom going full sorcery. The tone of this run is generally very light and family-friendly. (enhancing the shock effect when this is revealed)
Ales Kot, actually. It's definitely in the vein of those first 2 books (haven't read Ant-Man yet.)
X-factor's Layla "I know things" Miller is in House of M, which was a summer 2005 event. X-Factor started in December 2005 so aparently she's a House of M creation not X-Factor, interesting. And if she's actually a remnant from the House of M alternate world that's even more interesting
Real talk: my only actual knowledge of House of M is still just what I got out of those old Floating Hands animations (also, it's totally lame that that guy didn't keep up with those and only ever made a few. I remember really liking those even when I wasn't heavy into comics...)

House of M was good.
I've been loving it. Some of the tie-ins are lame but the main book and some tie-ins like Fantastic Four are excellent
I'm not sure I want to read Avengers Disassembled but I would like to read the issue where Wanda kills Vision and Hawkeye, does anyone happen to know what that issue was?

Avengers 500-503 (2004)
Took out Monica and Jan, what the fuck?
Edit: Avengers 500
Pym: "Tony what's wrong with you?"
Tony: "Leave me alone, don't you have a wife to beat?"
Edit: holy shit Avengers 500 was awesome
Also, add another to the ripped in half list

Just started Priest's Black Panther on MU. My only prior experience with him was when Shuri took over and Hickman's stuff, so this is so different. And super great so far. And it's funny!
Now I really hope Martin Freeman is Everett K. Ross.

Not only is Waid's run on FF great, the arc where doom gets that skin is one of my favorite Arcs ever, definitely a highlight.

Secret Wars #2: This issue was good, but it's all about outlining the status quo of Battleworld. Doesn't really kick off until the additions at the end.
Mighty Avengers #8: Luke Cage gets the best summation of the Illuminati yet. (Remember, he doesn't know BP in on the team.) Blue Marvel gets to tell Reed the truth straight.
Convergence #6: We're ending up with good DC universes vs. asshole DC universes? Okay. (No, the new 52 isn't involved.)
Thor #8: So now we know who Thor is. No who anyone expected and a bit of an odd choice.
What does a hammer do in its free time?
Convergence Minis: Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Bahahaha at tchalla and reed telling brashear
that he didnt qualify for the illuminati, but namor and rogers did.
yeah, seriously. that was stupid.
Halfway through Infinity now.
I could see why some wouldn't be into it, but damn man, this is my shit. Hickman is the truth.
I kinda wanna get the hardcover afterward. I have a hard time believing this won't be the basis for Infinity War 1+2 and while it'll be a cold day in hell before the MCU could do all of this justice, I still want the book on hand to re-read prior.

Recently I read the Son of M epilogue to House of M featuring Quicksilver (thanks to Marvel Unlimited recomendations thingie) and I recommend it very much.
That's one of the books that was released long after House of M correct? I belive there's two?
Oh, maybe. But I've read some quicksilver stuff recently (don't remember what book, possibly X-Factor) and they reference this mini quite a bit.
It's also important because of Avengers: The Children Crusade which does a healthy retcon of Disassembled.
That's what I need to read to understand how wiccan was not, in fact, erased?
It helps.

watched that whole Supergirl trailer. i'm watching the show, idgaf!
In Avengers Disassembled they say her kids weren't real, she just conjured them because she's cookoo, so her magic teacher erased them and made her forget...
...because that's what you want to do to a stupid powerful magic user that is obviously mentally unstable enough to conjure 2 sons because she can't have any, you take them away. No harm could come from that.

Oh, sure. That is one of the worst ideas in comics. Right after trading your marriage to your loving (and smoking hot) wife to save your elderly Aunt.
Wanda is crazy tho... why exactly do they keep giving her chances again?
You would think by the 10th time she turns evil on them, they would go "you know maybe we don't let Wanda back on the team"

...whut
Disassembled is the first time she ever went crazy under her own perogative. She's been possessed and mind controlled before... but everybody has
HoM is the only time she goes beyond far, and even then it was due to other people taking advantage of Wanda not being particularly sane,

It might be the best idea to keep her around so that they can keep an eye on her. But it is kind of the "why doesn't Batman just kill the Joker?" kind of argument. A good choice for logic, but shuts off a lot of storytelling options.
That last one is a bad idea on a whole other level. I think we'd all be better off pretending that never happened.
The Guardians as we know them today didn't exist back then. You could probably get one of Yondu, but that's it.

I hate what Bendis did to her. All the Wanda is crazy stuff was really driven by him

Yondu replacing Wolverine on a shirt would've been fucking hilarious tbh
