Comic Book Thread: Combined for greatness

**noblemountain** · 2015-08-20 17:21

Off the top of my head...

Weirdworld (gorgeous and fun)
Siege
Thors
Master of Kung Fu (I enjoyed it quite a bit)
Red Skull (big cap guy, so I'll buy all things skull)
1872 (enjoying this, if grim)
Mrs. Deadpool and the Howling Commandos (really fun use of characters that don't get much play)
Future Imperfect (meh, it is supposedly going to tie into the main books, but it's not great itself)
Howard the Human (one shot, but fun)
Ghost Racers (enjoying this a lot more than I thought I would)
Planet Hulk (cap riding devil dinosaur...c'mon)
Renew Your Vows (great spidey story)
Old Man Logan (ties into the main line)
Hail Hydra (just cause I'm a cap fanboy and this book stars his adopted son, Ian)
X-Men 92 ('cause my childhood!)

Overall there has been some really great stories told in the Battleworld books. If you're a fan of a specific story or characters involved I highly recommend picking a few up and checking them out.

(honorable mention to Where Monster's Dwell, been a fun 50's style adventure book)

Him Thor, he have hard life.

Also, I swear there was a better Iron Man fan suit they could have used.

Hahahahahaha that Black Bolt.

I was looking at those with a coworker during lunch. Some are fucking awful and i have no idea why they chose them.

Secret Wars now a 9 issue series as opposed to an 8 issue series:

**Krandor** · 2015-08-26 09:58

Oh man I can't wait for all the relaunch series to drop before Secret Wars has finished and spoil the ending.

**Vagrant** · 2015-08-26 13:19

I believe Marvel said that won't be the case but no idea how they plan it to happen

Civil War 3 was great, one of the best Battleworld books. I wish Soule was writing an Avengers title.

**Kaslo** · 2015-09-02 16:18

Umm... is Odinson going to become the Hulk?

**Vagrant** · 2015-09-02 16:28

They seem to be doing a series of variants. This was the third one. The first was the main one we've been seeing and they also did one that looked like Iron Fist.

Either they just doing variants with people that are most mentioned in the rumors or they might be bringing the storyline that started the Planet Hulk region in Secret Wars over to the main universe and multiple people will have the ability to transform into a Hulk.

After all that, it was Amadeus Cho anyway

**tyven** · 2015-09-04 09:50

man i love amadeus cho, i felt so robbed when he only made one appearance in the avengers run up to battleworld

**noblemountain** · 2015-09-05 12:10

Love me some Amadeus Cho as well...great character to become a hulk also. I am looking forward to seeing what Pak does with this run. Also, a Korean writing a Korean character? That almost makes too much sense!

Over the years I have generally gotten my comic books through a local comic shop. I now work 5-6 days a week and have a hard time making it out there to do previews orders, anyone have any advice on a good place to do affordable previews orders online? It's kind of random I know but technically comic book related.

https://www.dcbservice.com/ is the one I know of, though I haven't used it.
