Love some Dark Angel and Motormouth. Think they will slide some New Universe in there?
Its going to be five months long and we'll have to wait and see if there's a Noir spot.
Id honestly like to see cap britain go back to his old costume. And bring back deaths head just because.
There's too much stuff coming out for this to be done in one month lol.
I'm curious to see what happens with the Captain Britain Corps.
Spoiler alert, they will die in mass
Or MC2

Yes. I love that they included the werewolf centaur venom (who was also diabetic). Looking forward to that title a lot, specially because wade is supposed to be dead by then. I wonder if she's trying to revive him.

Does anyone remember the name of the Marvel comic that came out a few years ago that had all those monster versions of characters like a 6 arm venom Spider-Man and I think Frankencastle? Was it Dark Avengers or maybe Thunderbolts? It came out around the time they were doing that whole "Heroic Age" branding in 2010

Any mention of Earth-1298 (mutant x) in secret war? http://marvel.wikia.com/Earth-1298
Why does everyone poo poo Bendis? He's one of my favorite writers and one of the biggest reasons i got back into comics and i love his uncanny/GOTG run. Bums me out when people poo poo his work
He is good with street level stuff or underdog heroes or soaps.
Big team scale stuff or cosmic stuff is not his thing, he is actually terrible at GotG compared to the original run.
i hope thats not the cover theyre going with.
Another plot hole from Axis I just realized. The red skull used the data Tony had from Civil war to get the hero`s weaknesses... but how is that Data still around when Tony downloaded the only copy of it into his head to prevent Norman osborn from getting his hands on it and then erased his own mind just to keep it gone....... The back up he used to restore himself was from pre cival war so those files shouldn`t exist anymore.

• But in doing so, will Technopolis be forced into a civil war?
32 PGS./Rated T+ ...$3.99
ComicsAlliance: To what extent does your Armor Wars tie in to the classic Iron Man Armor Wars storyline of the late ’80s?
James Robinson: Well the original series was a (relatively) short saga that featured Tony, fearing that his armor designs were being misused, going after/defeating all his armor designs that were out there in the Marvel Universe being worn by others. It was a simple tale with a beginning and end.
When it came to turning this title “Armor Wars” into enough of a concept it was worthy of a whole area of Battleworld, I felt there should be more to it. So there will be a lot of Armor Vs. Armor action in it, but this tale is so much more than the original series in terms of its scope.
CA: How do you describe the high-tech setting of Technopolis? How is it different to the world we know?
JR: For reasons that will be revealed in the story, Technopolis is a world where every single person living here has to wear armor all the time. It’s a super-high-tech world of armor and robotics and science, very much advanced to ours or even the normal Marvel Universe. And all of it overseen by Tony Stark and the resident Thor who acts as the chief of police here, maintaining order.
CA: I notice this domain’s version of Thor has a surprising alter ego in Jim Rhodes. Is this a world without magic, and should we prepare for any similar surprises?
JR: No magic. This is a world of science. And yes, you’ll see a few more surprises like the identity of Technopolis’ Thor. A few familiar characters in unfamiliar roles… most specifically our murder victim who starts the whole drama in the first place.
CA: Marcio, designing all these armored characters sounds like a great gig. How do you approach the design aspect?
Marcio Takara: It is an awesome project to be part of. The idea was to incorporate as many Iron Man visuals as possible to each character. Since everyone has armor, I did my best to make at least the most important characters visually distinct from each other. I usually spend hours just picking reference from all over the place. So for Armor Wars, I have folders like “steampunk”, “dieselpunk” and “noir”. Along with lots and lots of Iron Man armors from the past. I love it.

I've already made peace with it. Marvel got me good this time around.
I'm going to predict that the last two books will be Renew your Vows by Slott and Civil War. The only other teasers left are House of M and Age of Apocalypse but we have the Star-Lord book and I think the other characters from those events will be appearing in other books rather than their own.
I'm pretty sure they've announce Old Man Logan's creative team already. Yep: Bendis & Andrea Sorrentino.
I realized that after I posted lol. Either way we only have two books left and those are the ones I'm expecting.
I also have Zelda U, Star Fox U, Xenoblade X, Splatoon, more Amiibos, & Arkham Knight to worry about. Not to mention if Smash DLC happens.

You know... Captain Marvel has been extremely bland these days. By these days, I really mean for some time. I'd say Yost should be on it, but CM is Marvel's premier "for women by women" book, and taking KSD off is probably tantamount to sacrilege. But someone needs to define her in a way that isn't fucking boring.
looks like theyre using the best nighthawk design. too bad its the lame hyperion design front and center

Huh, that's out of left field. There were enough X-Men books already so maybe it's good this isn't about Mr Sinister.

Slott in charge of Renew your Vows hurts. I'm trying to remember the last time he wrote MJ as anything other than "belligerent plot obstacle".
Also, how about we give Carol a single story worth a shit before we start worshipping her as an icon. Please.

Looks like some Squadron on Squadron beef. All Nighthawk costumes are terrible, that nighthawk suit is just less bad.
I just hope Slott's off the book after Secret Wars; he's been terrible since Spider Island ended, and the things he's done to the supporting cast to make more room for Silk and Anna Maria is unforgivable.

It's not like Anna Maria is in the book as anything other than an exposition machine/responsibility nag anyway.
How many more times will she tell Peter she can't run the company herself, and how many more times will Pete blow her off? He just tramples in, demands that the entire company refocus on some wacky what-could-possibly-go-wrong super prison idea, and then just fucks off and tells everyone else to deal with the obstacles that he arbitrarily threw up.
Seriously, Slott has written Peter as an unbelievable douchebag lately but his writing is so poor I can't even tell if it's intentional.
Axis only works if Red Skull has been mind-whammying Stark since Civil War. But this Red Skull only revealed himself after AvX. So...
Comics.
This arc is moving more smoothly than the 2012 run. And now, Black Vortex.
I guess everyone just wants her to meet Kamala already.
I really wished they could play with the amnesiac angle more but they keep forgetting.
thats one of the things that dissapointing about this run, and one ive argued with others over. people praise slott because pete isnt some perennial loser anymore and has his own company, but hes always away from it or has someone bitching about having to shoulder everything while petes out being spider man. id much rather he be a high school teacher than this boring plotpoint that hes in with a boring supporting cast. and slotts tossing mary jane in the bushes is bs.
read any other book with pete in it, and its written much better. i dont see how this shit keeps getting a pass
This was true during Superior too- Yost and Gage are leagues better than Slott, and it shows whenever they get a spin-off like Superior Team-Up.
