Gah! That shit freaks me out man
Cap by a mile
It might be hard to follow if you don't read the beginning of Brubaker's run, but it's definitely the most important.

Okay. So would this be fine to read for the whole event?
-Road to Civil War by Bendis
-Civil War by Millar
-Civil War: Captain America by Bruckabar

You're missing Civil War: The Confession which is a single issue I can recommend. Also the biggest part of Cap is #26, the epilogue to the whole event, and I'm not sure that's in the collected edition of CW: CA. It might be in the collected edition of the main book, just make sure you get it in somewhere.

Guys, Sara Pezzini is like the best.
Anyone else here into Witchblade?
Anyone else here into Witchblade?
I think they explain it a little in Realm of Kings: Inhumans #1-3.

War of Kings. BB's dead in Realm of Kings.
It's largely "If you keep maximus occupied with something else he's not so bad.
He's still unequivocally terrible, but it's channeled into other things, rather than usurping throne and raping your wife.
Well yeah, I was mostly talking about how no one in the royal family would annihilate him. BB probably never needed to explain why he kept Max around. As his uses in multiple fields of science are unmatched in the Inhuman line. And he's his brother. So.... shit.

Inhumans talk got me to start reading Marvel Knights Inhumans by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee. Good writing, great art, but dear fucking god these 90`s fonts are butchering the book.

some Roads to Civil War are best left untraveled.

Who knows? Only DC considers FCBD important.

Well said
My guess is that its back-up Tony from Superior Iron Man or the Tony featured in the upcoming Armor Wars book.
Star Wars Legacy dialogue i have to share:
random guy in a bar fight scenario: "Cheat me at sabacc, will ya?!! Idiot's Array sixteen times inna row? Nobody gets that lucky!
Cade: Chu ta! took you a while, Moh. You Uggli Brothers put the "idiot" in Idiot's Array."
O________________O I'm in over my head now in Star Wars Legacy, i've seen too much to recover.

Do I even have to read those?
Civil War was kinda dumb in general, there is no expanding it that makes it better so I'd recommend just reading the main event, it's fairly straight forward. If you're reading it on MU and there is no additional cost, go for it all. Rhaknar i think did so and he's almost recovered. Brubaker's Captain America was good though, you should probably read that from the start just because of the quality.
Hey I never said that

Off and on. I haven't read it for a while. Since about the time Artifacts was a thing.

So no need for Road?
I looked up what exactly was in Road, i remember reading Illuminati and the Amazing Spider-man issues, they were okay but i'd skip them unless you are set on expanding your Civil War reading, you could do a lot worse than that trade ( the x-men tie-in was the worst i read.) I don't think Civil War was an event that is worth spending extra to expand on it outside of Captain America, which was a good book to begin with.
There is still the free month offer of MU going around, if that's an option for you. Using code STARWARS at checkout for a monthly sub.
You will
Nah. The premise is self explanatory.

Wait, Convergence has appearances from pre-New 52 characters? Have they shown up yet or is that still to come?
Had to miss FCBD this year.
It happens. I missed last year's and just grabbed what I could when Midtown Comics put them up online.
My FCBD timeline:
7:00am - Arrived at LCS, 20 or so people ahead of me.
9:50am - Looked up and now there's 40+ people ahead of me. I guess some people were saving spots for family/friends, which was not cool because some of them showed up way later than everyone else behind me. At this point, the line was probably 200+.
10:00am - Doors are open.
10:10am - Grabbed my two free comics and then stood in line for Derek Fridolfs.
12:20pm - Got my free sketch from Derek. On my way out, the line was done and there were some extras left on the table. Asked the shop owner if I can grab another and he tells me to just grab what's left.
I started a new sketchbook centered around villains. I wasn't paying attention when Derek started drawing because drew on the page I was intentionally going to leave blank. I didn't want to interrupt him as he put pencil to paper. Oh well. Sketch was free though.
Justice League #40 was not free. I didn't want to leave the shop without spending any money.

Nah, only picked up 2000 AD and Dark Circle. 2 book limit at my lcs and loooooong-ass line for free comics at the Comic Bug so I didn't bother with those. I'll see if my shop has any left over next time I'm in
Yeah , I'm watching it too. This Game 7, man.
I saw it on day one. What do I win?
An internet high five for seeing a good fucking movie.
