I would be shocked and appalled!

Anyway, I think this and the Rebirth thread are slow because there's already a place for the regulars to discuss weekly releases - the Community OT.

The Rebirth thread at least has discussion and people checking in every week/whenever they've read something. No one new started reading Marvel comics with Now!.

That should come as no surprise. Rebirth is a huge upheaval and basically a publisher finally caving in to readers' long time demands.

Meanwhile, Marvel treats its line like a TV show and releases "seasons" of their books. Few readers are falling for their shiny #1s at this point.

Hey, I just picked up The Unworthy Thor! Haven't read it yet so I can't really comment on it but outside of reading old stuff on Unlimited, it's the first Marvel book I've bought in a few years. I wanted to avoid Civil War 2 like the plague. Now I'm more open to trying new series but their prices are insane. I'll give a shot to the X-Men reboot depending on the creative teams and I'm also thinking of trying Cap, Daredevil and Miss Marvel.

There's just a lot of negativity around Marvel right now but it's cyclical. Everyone hated DC before Rebirth even though they had a lot of great titles like Omega Men.

Well, this thread died quickly.

First cancellation might have already been decided by Marvel(Solo).

Next up: Foolkiller.

 

[Vermillion]

So HydraCap is actually a decent villain. Schemes on schemes on schemes.

Spoiler

Dead, but he uploaded his personality to a computer, so he's acting as Doom's AI like Friday did for Stark.

Avengers 1

Spoiler

seems to contradict this. Tony is referred to as being "in rough shape" by SamCap. I think he's gonna end up in a coma. Doom never actually says he's dead, only that he isn't around

Yup.

He's really scummy. The artist on that series really sells it. He has Cap making these little smirks and looks.

Not surprising in the slightest, the previews made Solo look about as appealing as any generic garbage Marvel made in the 90s. Did anyone here even read it?

I read it. It was marginal at best.

Foolkiller was much better though.

Fingers crossed the next big crossover is a "HydraCap vs. the Marvel Universe."

Spoiler

Really I just want to see Spencer write another huge crossover.

 

[Sinatar]

First issue of Thanos was really solid, we get Corvus Glaive, The Champion, Starfox and Thane.

Combine this with the X-Men line relaunch and you can see you loses.

I see that annoying ass Swain is still there.

[Neoxon]

I just wanted to chime in & say that Nova #2 is amazing.

 

[mreddie]

USAvengers and Wasp are dope too. C'MON GAF, you sleeping on me.

 

[Mighty Chin]

Is it still called MarvelNow?

 

[Dalek]

Just read it. Tremendous issue. The best is back!

 

[Kurdel]

Loving Infamous Iron Man, Champions and Unworthy Thor.

USAvengers and Wasp are dope too. C'MON GAF, you sleeping on me.

Yeah? I will give them a shot!

 

[Zackat]

can I read all of these on marvel unlimited? Or will it be a while yet?

It'll be awhile, they just got to CW2.

I really just need to go to my local comic shop lol. Haven't been to the one I have in mind yet.

Comics get added to MarvelU 6 months after they hit shelves.

 

[Neoxon]

I can vouch for this post. Both books are pretty damn solid, though I'm more on the Nova hype train (for obvious reasons).

Imagining Troy Baker & Logan Miller as the voices of Richard Rider & Sam Alexander respectively really enhanced the experience for me.

 

[mreddie]

Phase 2.3453 coming in May

 

[The Kree]

I don't like Good Guy Doom. His voice isn't right.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

I don't like Good Guy Doom. His voice isn't right.

You could say this about many classic characters written by Bendis

 

[Sinatar]

Anyone reading Ultimates²? Some serious serious shit is going down in this weeks issue. God I'm such a mark for this cosmic stuff.

 

[The Kree]

Ultimates is on some other shit. Al Ewing has to be the one to bring the Fantastic Four back. Pay him whatever it costs and just let him work.

 

[purnoman3000]

Who in the good fuck is in front on the right and why are they in an inhumans book about the royals? Not my royals

That art design is unfortunate

 

[mreddie]

UPDATE:
Solo, Foolkiller, Slapstick, GLA

MEANWHILE

Power Man and Iron Fist will split, Walker will do this and Iron Fist by Ed Brisson

 

[jon bones]

i dropped all Marvel books halfway through CWII

i should return to the fold one of these days

 

[IrishNinja]

dropped a lot of books - don't know why i stuck with Carnage, nope'd quick on Venom, Spidey 2099 isn't bad but im good with slottt's ASM,etc. Thor mini should tie up soon, still reading the regular & keeping up with my boy Daredevil even if Soule is kinda feeling like a huge stepdown post Waid

Too many folks are sleeping on the Cap books and Black Panther.

I think all three will be classics by the end of their runs.

agreed, Panther is mad dense with lore & a great read, both caps are enjoyable but i'm really more on falcon-cap now

Power Man and Iron Fist will split, Walker will do this and Iron Fist by Ed Brisson

see i wanna be excited here, but while i really dug the last volume of them as a team again, the iron fist kaare andrews (sp?) solo before it was such booty buttcheeks that i'm nervous for this
