I could restock Mcdonald's french fry supply from all the salt from the last "big Marvel announcement" thread

 

[Nudull]

Do it, Marvel. Reboot time.

 

[HIGH DEF JEFF]

Will this shake the Marvel Universe to its very core..like every fucking event does every year.

 

[Gonzalez]

Does Dixie Carter run Marvel Comics PR department now?

 

[Neoxon]

Do it, Marvel. Reboot time.

I'd rather not, more so given that they're just starting new comics (Uncanny Inhumans, Spider-Gwen, & Silk for example, & Squirrel Girl which just recently came out). It wouldn't make much sense to reboot shortly after the debut of some of the newer comics.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Everything Ends.

 

[wenis]

Fool me once Marvel...

Last big announcement were the Secret Wars themselves, no?

(apart from the movies, of course)

real fucking talk here

If I recall, the last big announcement from Marvel Comics was the reveal of Secret Wars.

 

[Wolves Evolve]

My superhero, Rebirtho, has the superpower to shake reality to its core every issue.

 

[PsychBat!]

If I recall, the last big announcement from Marvel Comics was the reveal of Secret Wars.

That's why people were so salty. They wanted something MCU related. Instead, they were either indifferent or shat on the Secret Wars announcement.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

yeah but movies impact comic sales lol

 

[jasonng]

I see so many Captain Americas. Civil War 2?

 

[Neoxon]

That's why people were so salty. They wanted something MCU related. Instead, they were either indifferent or shat on the Secret Wars announcement.

But didn't we also get that gigantic Marvel Studios press conference where the fans were invited & Kevin Feige dropped more Phase 3 bombs than Bomberman armed to the teeth?

 

[Drayco21]

Do it, Marvel. Reboot time.

That would be the worst possible thing they could do.

 

[Sou Da]

"We are finally undoing ONE MORE DAY"

;_;

 

[Nudull]

But didn't we also get that gigantic Marvel Studios press conference where the fans were invited & Kevin Feige dropped more Phase 3 bombs than Bomberman armed to the teeth?

You know people are gonna get salty over this anyway, even with the obvious signs to this being comic news.

 

[PsychBat!]

But didn't we also get that gigantic Marvel Studios press conference where the fans were invited & Kevin Feige dropped more Phase 3 bombs than Bomberman armed to the teeth?

That was later, man.

 

[BuddyJoeHooker]

I bet they announce a shit load of tie ins they think people want.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

"We are finally undoing ONE MORE DAY"

;_;

Mary Jane revealed to have also slept with Norman Osborn

 

[MattKeil]

Do it, Marvel. Reboot time.

Worst imaginable idea. Marvel knows better.

 

[Neoxon]

That was later, man.

The difference was back then we weren't sure if that was movie or comic-related news. This is clearly comic-related, which should hopefully decrease disappointment.

 

[Drayco21]

I bet they announce a shit load of tie ins they think people want.

More tie-ins than the huge list they've already announced?

Actually, yeah, there's no way that's not coming.

Spoiler

And I'm gonna read every single one of them.

 

[Owzers]

I bet they announce a shit load of tie ins they think people want.

with All New 3d Covers.

 

[duckroll]

Mary Jane revealed to have also slept with Norman Osborn

Sins Past II: Sinner's Boogaloo

 

[Slayer-33]

Aquaman is the main hero now

 

[anaron]

"All the mutants are now inhuman!"

 

[Nudull]

So, who's planning on doing a thread for the stream? Neoxon?

 

[Neoxon]

"All the mutants are now inhuman!"

They'd probably write them out of continuity if anything (seeing as Wolverine is dead & Deadpool will die soon assuming that it isn't an April Fool's). Rebranding the mutants as inhumans won't do jack shit for the movie rights.

So, who's planning on doing a thread for the stream? Neoxon?

I'll revive this thread when the time comes.

 

[Vermillion]

Mary Jane revealed to have also slept with Norman Osborn

Lololol

 

[StoopKid]

"All the mutants are now inhuman!"

That would be hilarious.

 

[Sou Da]

Sins Past II: Sinner's Boogaloo

Mary Jane revealed to have also slept with Norman Osborn

You're both horrible. Just horrible.

 

[a secret-boss]

This time Marvel is dying

Resurrected next year

 

[Sibersk Esto]

It's probably Wolverine's return date

 

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

Did you guys see that secret wars box set they announced a few months ago:

http://comicbook.com/2014/11/21/marvel-announces-marvel-super-heroes-secret-wars-battleword-box-/

I think i need it in my life

 

[jph139]

Really excited for Secret Wars. Hickman writing, Ribic on art, Alex Ross covers... and big multiversal crossover crap is always in my wheelhouse. And they're pushing it a lot harder than any of their previous big status-quo changing mega-event wankery. So I've got pretty high hopes here.

 

[CorvoSol]

"We are finally undoing ONE MORE DAY"

;_;

Marvel to give Mary Jane the Phoenix so they can kill her off permanently. Scarlet Witch to go "No more gingers" all red-headed marvel characters die and never existed, immediately replaced by blondes.

 

[BLACKLAC]

"All the mutants are now inhuman!"

I want this now.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Goodbye Ultimate Marvel, you won't be missed.

 

[Slayven]

Goodbye Ultimate Marvel, you won't be missed.

[George Oscar Bluth II]

It's funny, I can't think of what a huge announcement could be when it comes to Marvel Comics. Crazy stuff happens all the time.

 

[Manmademan]

Goodbye Ultimate Marvel, you won't be missed.

[The Broken Ska Record]

Marvel is announcing they are done announcing things.

 

[Slayven]

It's funny, I can't think of what a huge announcement could be when it comes to Marvel Comics. Crazy stuff happens all the time.

I know right, I mean they are blowing universes left and right in Avengers.

My guess is they bringing back the Ultraverse

 

[Neoxon]

It's funny, I can't think of what a huge announcement could be when it comes to Marvel Comics. Crazy stuff happens all the time.

Hopefully that announcement isn't a reboot.

 

[duckroll]

That doesn't stop marketing from having to do a job!

 

[y2dvd]

Marvel is announcing they are done announcing things.

Pffff they will announce announcements.

 

[Slayven]

I will renounce my love for Jack Flag if it is a reboot.
