You can't do that! You need to scream it from the mountaintops everywhere!
To be honest, when Ou think off how often Breevort is currently talking about that this wont happen in the near future, its almost obivious, that it will happen soon.

So, I'm looking at some Heroclix from the upcoming Avengers set; Can someone tell me when Steve Rogers became a Nova Corp member?

When they ran out of other characters to make Heroclix of.
Boom. Heroclix roast.

Finish Avengers/New Avengers prior to starting up Secret Wars, right?

Doesn't matter so don't waste your time or money. Everything you need to know is in SW 1.

Secret Wars #0 and #1 bought. I'm in. Think I'll wait until I've finished Avengers though.

How long did the Batman run end up total? Because Hickman is like 7 issues away from finishing a story that's like over 100 issues long when you start from ff dark reign.
Quality over quantity, sure, but Hickman hadn't dropped the ball once for a single issue over the course of these titles. Morrison has honestly never pulled off anything of this scale.

Taking all current work into account, Secret Wars > Multiversity: Just and Mastermen but SW 1 doesn't hold a candle to rest of the Multiversity issues.
But 0 was free. Hope you didn't buy it otherwise you got duped.

I paid 50p for a hard copy online. Wouldn't have been able to get one otherwise.

I have enough comics to buy and read at the moment, I don't really want to throw money at something I'm not particularly interested in. It's not that crazy.
So, I'm looking at some Heroclix from the upcoming Avengers set; Can someone tell me when Steve Rogers became a Nova Corp member?
I've been thinking about getting into HeroClix but damn, I know I'd drop $$$ too carelessly on it. Maybe I'll start small...
He talked in the Iron-man word bubbles, but the mask didn't come off, iirc

I'd be surprised if Bayern won.
We will lose.

Well atleast it wasn't an exorbitant amount and you got a copy in the end.

Some spoiler, Tyrant.
Oh, I know. But I'm imagining him reading the news and having to post it on some other forum and make six threads asking for a Bryan Fuller Punisher Netflix series. ;_;

No he is not.
My favorite part is still when
The Punisher crashes the villain party and says (and i am paraphrasing) they say you cant take it with you when you die which begs the question.. What am i gonna do with all these bullets? *clac*

Morrison has also never written without copious amounts of drugs, so there's that.
My concern with Hicks is over endings.
To be fair, their styles are also quite different. Hicks does time shenanigans and progression quite well, whereas Morrison's forte is being somewhat cohesively batshit crazy.

I only read comics from the golden and silver age, which is the last time they were good.

You don't think anything Hickman has ever written for Marvel has ever gotten a bit too self-indulgent and self-congratulating?
As for Morrison's run...If it started (sorta) with The Black Casebook and one or two issues of 52...You have Batman & Son (8), The Black Glove (8), Batman RIP (7), Last Rights/The RIP The Missing Chapters (5), Final Crisis (at a push), Batman & Robin (16), The Return of Bruce Wayne inc One Shot (7), Batman Inc Vol 1 (9) and Batman Inc Vol 2 (13) you have...
77 issues or so.
To be fair...i think it's kinda unfair to compare the two of them because the closest Morrison came to writing something similar was Final Crisis...and Hickman's run is something new for Marvel but not new for DC. It's not a knock against it, because fuck if I didn't love Secret Wars #1 and now wish I'd went Croydon with friends to get a variant but...I think if anything...HIckman's Marvel magnum opus has eventually let him get away from being a Morrison-inspired very good writer into one who likes similarly labyrinthian plots but stands on his own merits.
Hopefully after his six month break (or whatever it is) he writes LSH or something for DC. I fear LSH would never get the sales for him to write something for his favourite but...eh. Morrison/Hickman writing Hyper Crisis...*drools*

Spider-Gwen #4 read. That run continues to knock it out of the park.
Side note. I've been looking to get into Ant-Man stuff before the film drops. How is the current run? If it's alright, I'll catch up on it.
Well considering Miles said to the rest of the team "We don't have Stark's money anymore", it would seem to indicate that someone else is in the suit.

OK cool, thanks for the info... I haven't gotten my hands on the issue yet, but it'd make sense for it not to be Tony since everyone else is in fact All-New and All-Different.

The belief as of now is that the person in the suit is a founding member of the Avengers. There is a reference to how the Avengers got their name by the person in the suit. My money's on Pym, but it could be any of a few.
