Comic Book Thread: Combined for greatness

[Delirium]

God everything DC has put out for Villain's month is fucking garbage. Forever Evil #1 was cliche as hell. It's literally the Crime Syndicate trying to do to Earth-1/Prime/Whatever what they did to Earth-3 in JLA. On top of that, every villain specific issue that I've read has been boring. How do you make a book about Harley Quinn boring?

Unrelated, I need to start getting into some Valiant books.

Avengers #19 was entertaining, but seems like the only even remotely decent book to come this week from the big two.

I won't lie though, kinda interested in who the new Ronin is for Mighty Avengers.

Excuse me. Captain America 11

On Battle of the Atom, I have to give some credit to the fact that the story seems to be flowing naturally, but also focusing on the core groups of the individual books (like X-Men focused and continued ideas from X-Mem while naturally pushing the BotA story forward)

[Krandor]

Oh didn't know Cap 11 was out this week. My bad!

[KoalaTrap]

Best part of Cap: no more bobblehead kid Steve flashbacks. Nice to see what Jet looks like via the new artist too.

When Nuke appeared in Cap I said, "Yus, YUS!" aloud. I love that pill popping bad-ass.

[Kaslo]

Oh new Deadpool too.

Infinity 3 was bad ass. Daredevil was great, what looked to be a commentary on Trayvon Martin turned into something else(thank Odin). I loved the use of Pym's ants.

[KoalaTrap]

Only read Spidey and Thor so far for new stuff. Man, I love Spidey 2099. Please please let him be a NOW phase 2 title. Thor was a let down after the Gorr stuff and the amazing one shot last issue. Going back to Asgardia in OK and the warriors three just isn't as cool as focusing on Thor in different timelines.

[Krandor]

I have no idea where Hickman is going with Infinity, but goddamn am I entertained. I love that stuff like New Avengers whole incursion storyline is still going on in the middle of all this.

For the MAA players another Dev Q&A was released. They talk a lot and say nothing, other than last day pvp doesn't affect that many people and the AI doesn't have a higher proc rate for things, it is just the player bases stupidity.

That is such bullshit, anyone who plays PVP can see AI has about 100% proc on everything.

Spock about to superior-ly fuck Parker's body life-style.

MAA: Infinity Spec Ops is live. Black Bolt is the reward with Thane(presumably the son of Thanos) as the lockbox reward. Thanos is of course the group boss.

[Krandor]

Haven't sat down to read them yet, but Avengers, Uncanny Avengers, and Saga all this week. So much goodness.

[Vagrant]

And thankfully this week marks the end of the DC borefest of Villains month.

[KoalaTrap]

And Fatale, East of West, Revival... Image is rocking it this week.

Read Sex Criminals from Fraction and loved it. Very weird, funny, and sweet in its odd way.

[tyven]

omg lying cat is just the best

[grantlogan]

This week had some gems. "Bury me in chimichangas" and the cyclops barfing on the babby were my favorites.
