Hickman's FF is off the charts at this point. Huge spoiler

TO ME, MY GALACTUS

Holy crap! Just keeps on delivering. I'm definitely re-reading this entire saga at some point.

Saw Age of Ultron yesterday, it's just good old fashioned fun. Didn't care much for Banner x Widow. I did like Vision. Dude is amazing. And man that Elizabeth Olsen in her new costume, GAWDDAMN

Also, they even had FCBD in Holland! Only got two, but it's the one I wanted because Secret Wars #0.

Btw, I've read Convergence and I must say... what? The Batman thing was weird. Gordon kinda took the words out of my mouth. Superman was okay I guess. Never read anything regarding Wonder Woman, but that was strange as well. Not for me I guess.

Oh and if anyone is interested, I have digital codes for New Avengers #33 and Avengers #44. PM if somebody wants it.

I got the Destiny season pass with the Limited Edition at a really good price and I still felt ripped off.

I almost picked up the game once or twice, but always decided that I didn't want to get sucked into the money-vortex that Bungie set up for themselves. The game itself always seemed a little bare-bones to me.

I wish Marvel Unlimited included the latest comics for like a premium price or something

Should I be caught up on all DC comics before Convergence or does it not matter?

I've still got some Aquaman, Flash and Superman to read.

I prefer short boxes. :X
I'm already up to five and just got two more.

I only have enough comics for one box at the moment, so I'm going to stick with this for now. However, once it's time to add a second box, I'll determine if I want to go short of long. :p

There was some cool stuff on Comixology, I got to read Southern Bastards and Bitch Planet for free, which I thought was pretty cool. I might pick up more issues of them. I hope lots of you guys with digital tried Velvet!

I'll grab the FCBD Marvel/DC stuff on CMX in a few weeks.

Miller DD! :)

Yeah, this one will likely be sooner put of Print since everybody now loves Daredevil.
But then, I feel more pressure to bu FF Vol. 2, because I am scared that the second volume of this one goes oop since I already have the first one.... Hm.

I'd go for Miller's Daredevil as well. But I've never been much of a FF fan.

My guesses on ANAD Avengers:

Stark is dead or trapped, Steve is ok but something happened with Vision/Sam, person in the Iron Man suit is Rick Jones, and Kamala did something during the incursion to put her on notice with the Avengers. If we connect with Rage, Tony is MIA seems to be a plausibility and Vision/Sam tension must have started during the Wars.

Anyone else getting an error message on CMX whenever they try to access their cart or buy a comic?

How'd you come to that? Something I'm missing in the comics?

You can't go wrong with both, but I'm reading FF vol 2 now and this is some top tier stuff. You need to get it at some point.

[spoiler for Hickman FF run] In one of the early issues there's
this page and I thought the right guy was the most badass Reed out of the entire council. And out of nowhere he gets an amazing backstory.
What a great series. I didn't read any FF stories yet, but this entire run was enough to make me a huge fan. I just wonder if there was anything before this that matched or came close to Hickman's run in quality?

Waid loves Rick Jones plus I can't see who else would be in the suit. I doubt it's Hulk or Banner, Wasp and Pym are doing their own thing if Rage is any indication. I dunno, the whole "We Chose the Avengers" scene is the one scene that is keeping me guessing. It is a Avenger and a one who's been there from the get go. I would think Rick or Steve.

Were any of the FCBD books any good? I had work and then saw the Avengers afterwords, so I didn't get a chance to pick any of them up.

I liked:

Secret Wars #0
Divergence
All New Avengers

2000AD was legit, but nobody here cares about it I don't think.

The thing is, neither Rick nor Steve were there when they chose that name. (disclaimer: I won't be able to read the book until it's on comixology)
I really like the Rick theory though and he's totally the kind of character Waid would want to use. Hell, his Coulson is Rick Jonesy.

I love Rachel and Miles X-plain the X-Men but it's very specific, obviously.

Just ordered

- Superior Foes of Spider-man vol.3
- Southern Bastards vol 1
- Saga vol 1 to 4. Big fan of Y The Last Man, so I'm excited for this.

I also jumped on that free month of Marvel U so I feel like a kid in some kind of a store

I wanna own a store that looks like a comic store on the outside but when you come in all you see is manga and weeaboo crap all around as J-pop is blasting through the speaker and I watch you with a big creepy smile wearing an idol master shirt.
