COMICS! |OT| November 2016. Wilde for comics, 2 Hickman books this month.

CW2 is just living up to the spirit of CW1 vis a vis delays

I remember Captain America #25 with Cap death coming out waaaay before Civil War #7

so whatever the ultimate outcome it didnt matter cuz we all know he didnt get shot until some time afterwards
 
Several? Huh. Cool. I'm intrigued since I figured there would only be two

With how many the Mutants got who they don't have the movie rights to? We're probably getting another Karnak comic, a new Young Inhumans team, 2 new characters getting solos right away and a Maximus book.

May be true but everyone is so negativ currently and the second part was a general feeling I have right now.

Maybe I have a fall depression or something like this.
 
I'm pretty happy with my Marvel pulls and any that I'm not I'm either gonna drop or it's too early to call.

EXM
Uncanny Inhumans
Mighty Thor
Unworthy Thor
Power Man and Iron Fist
Both Cap books
Squadron Supreme
Black Panther
Anything Ewing

So on and so forth.

Who do you mean "everyone"?

Marvel like any company is not exempt from criticism.

2.0 is a good start, but is definitely being weighed down by CW 2 ongoing.
 
BK I had no idea you were still reading Squadron Supreme. How has it been lately?
Pretty good. It's like that book that you forget about until it shows up in your box and you go "oh that's right" and then you take it home and read it and go "damn that was pretty good."

Then the cycle begins anew.

Or is that just me?

Of course, but "everything sucks" is not quality criticism

Marvel and DC both have problems I would like to see them address. That doesn't mean they aren't both putting out some terrific titles right now.

I only buy black panther and gwenpool from Marvel, not too interested in any of the new books to add them to the floppy list.
 
Thor and Dr Strange alone refute all marvel books sucking, and I'm not even up date with some of the more recent titles like moon knight, panther or black widow.

Plus Echo will tell everyone himself how good daredevil is

It feels like everyone.
But maybe its because people talk about bad stuff more as about constant good stuff like Mrs Marvel and so it feels like Mrs Marvel also hit the shitter or something.
I cant remember the last time I have someone talking here about Khamalas own book. Or I can and it was months ago when someone complained that her books tied into Civil War.

So who is going to tell Donnie that Dr.Strange drops the ball.

I actually think Sorcerers supreme will be the go to strange title.

I am actually enjoying this arc a lot. Empirikul/Last Days of Magic sagged towards the end but I feel like the book is headed back up.

I know you haven't been enjoying it, but I am. Supremes is good too.
 
Oh it's the weekly marvel doesn't suck lists?

Spider-Woman
Gwenpool
Dr Strange
New Wolverine
Old Man Logan
Black Widow

At least those are the ones I want to read immediately when I get them. There's a couple others but they're waning.

Sorcerers was meh. Latest strange has him
fighting demon bacon by shrinking his astral form and going inside his own tummy in a diner in hell run by satana
. it is fucking amazing comics.

That Inhumans book is exactly what I wanted from the franchise. Now I just need to see a Nuhumans book. They even got Ewing to write it.

That CW2 delay was bound to happen because the epilogue was going to be released before the final issue at the current date.
 
Now this is a crossover that looks interesting. Star Trek/Green Lantern looked boring.

Since we're getting a bunch of crossovers from everyone but Image, Valiant and Marvel, what is the crossover book that would make each of us here go "OMG! This is perfect!"?

For me it would probably be Xena/Red Sonja/Wonder Woman.
 
I screamed when I read that flow, shame on you. Nah fair enough though, not everyone can like everything but at least other peeps are still into it. Volume 1 was fantastic.

I know it won't get far around these parts but I still think spider gwen is a really great book, worth mentioning. But yea, I know folks went off it. I'm gonna give robbie all your twitter handles :L

latest issue was solid. I feel like Aaron's strange work is inconsistent. When you read Nick Spencer's cap, thor, or Vision you know the issue is going to be at a certain threshold. With strange We either get a meh issue like the
dream issue where he fights the boogie man
or a crazy awesome stuff like the first 7 issues.

I don't hate it, I am just spoiled by reading so much great stuff.

Bruh trust me I was one of the biggest strange defenders here. It was easily in my top 5 earlier in the year. Volume 1 and the tie in Last days of magic is GOAT story telling.

That was cool, but I fee like Aaron is trying to give us a Spider-man gauntlet story when I rather get back to the real big bad. I think I rather have a different story and that is where my true dissent comes from



overall: I have no plans to drop it because Bachalo is slaying right now.

I'd say most people here are pretty positive. I mean, Flow gives us a BP review every week even when one doesn't drop and it's a 5/5 every time.
 
That's fair! Not quoting you to avoid the spoil tags haha I'll definietely be picking up volume 2 around Christmas, but I'm not above admitting Aaron's flaws when they come up. I think his Thor has been incredible, but it hasn't been perfect either.

Hahah dead
 
I forsook watching the CW superhero shows, but then I see a clip from The Flash and it pulls me back in...


But then I quickly remember why I dropped it and the honeymoon period leaves.

Started Batman and Robin Eternal last night. Really good stuff so far! Already like it more than Batman Eternal, though I don't know if it keeps it up or not.

I ordered Bloodborne yesterday and I am super excited for it.
Will be my first Souls game and I will most likely break up at some point but right now the look if the game hit all my right buttons.

I hope I will really be able to play through it because I became super annoyed everytime I tried a Beta of Souls game until now :/

Excited for Black Panther, but I will only be able to read it in 3 yeas when the run is over and everything is released as a OHC.

Should maybe read the Priest Run onwards then.
Even when the run where T'Challa was th guardian of Hells Kitchen sounds far more interesting to me.

One of the best comics around. Check out the fantastic OGN too.

And I bet you'll love Zdarsky and Quinones' Howard The Duck. (They actually cross over for a story!)
