Comic Book Thread: Combined for greatness

[Kyo]

Found the first issue for free on vertigo's site, guess I'll order the graphic the novel.

M:AA Stuff. Spec Ops 6 is rumored to be starting up soon. No clue what the missions will be but it was apparently leaked that Havok will be the reward when someone updated the Spec Ops page a bit early and listed the rewards but it's been changed back since then.

[grantlogan]

Oh nice. For the last couple hours there have been all kinds of refresh glitches in-game and that's what initially prompted people to speculate that Spec Ops 6 was coming.

[Vagrant]

Apparently they only fixed the english version. Switch to spanish language and the text under the progress meter on spec ops page clearly ends with recruit Havok only in Spanish. And yeha those glitches screwed me out of a couple PVP wins today too damn it.

[Kaslo]

Sweet! Love Havok as a character so this is excitebike!

[grantlogan]

Well, no update today. Hopefully tomorrow.

[Sumiko]

:D I hope you guys peer out for Wolvie and the X-Men 25 :3 I did some more extra materials :D

Also All New X-Men #7... feels @_@

I really like young Cyke. He's just so... so... .. so young! I feel sorry for him!

[grantlogan]

Haven't been up-to-date on Wolverine and the X-Men; havent enjoyed the past few arcs(since before AvX), but I will check it out for your stuff. According to TFAW, it comes out mid-february for us non-Marvel employee folk

[Krandor]

He carries a pretty bad stigma with people for obvious reasons (hi2u2 oversaturation), but the current Deadpool series is pretty goddamn awesome. Probably my favorite series from Marvel atm following the Now! reboot stuff.

Uncanny X-Force is "back" today as well, first issue is a good read and getting a pretty logical extension on Psylocke and Fantomex's storylines from the end of Remender's run. Also, it has Puck so, yeah.

Avengers

Spoiler: show

Felt very anticlimactic with Captain Universe just being Captain Universe. Knowing Hickman, that new "human" being born will end up being a supervillain and I doubt this is the last we see of Ex Nihilo.

Uncanny Avengers

Spoiler: show

I was kind of down on his series for the first two issues, but I really enjoyed this one. A bit more action, Cassaday obviously had the time to get his art done without rushing. I'd rather this book take forever and be good then how it looked in the first couple of issues.

FF

Spoiler: show

just ok, sadly. I really liked the first two issues of FF and the first 3 of Fantastic Four, but this issue was just what it had to be to get the girl to take Thing's spot. I do wonder exactly what the Moloids are up to, however.

Bedlam

Spoiler: show

So fucking good, sheesh. Since the detective already seems to believe there is something evil about this guy, I wonder how long it will take for her to find out the guy is Madder Red. The artwork continues to be absolutely gorgeous as well.

Young Avengers

Spoiler: show

Another book I was just ok with. It's hard to say how it will go, as I love the original Young Avengers and I want to see it do well. That being said, not a whole lot happened. Gillen obviously needed to get the Young Avengers back to super heroing and that is all this issue was. I will have to give it a couple more issues to see for sure.

Uncanny X-Force

Spoiler: show

There was pretty much no way I wasn't going to like this book. Love the cast, love the writer, and Ron Garney was fantastic drawing it all. That last page too.

[grantlogan]

months? it is in 2 weeks 6 just came out last week

Oops!

[Krandor]

You listed Uncanny Avengers twice, though obviously the second one is supposed to be Young Avengers.

oops, too many avengers books lol

[Kaslo]

One thing I'm upset with: Young Avengers didn't come with a free digital download. I thought all Marvel NOW titles did :/

[grantlogan]

Young Avengers and Uncanny X-Force were fucking horrible. Horrible. HORRIBLE!!!! Uncanny Avengers and Avengers were both good, not great unfortunately. Best thing I read today was Prophet.

[Tajin]

Ultimates, good god, what a mess...

[Krandor]

I enjoyed UXF well enough, but it's gonna take a few issues to decide if it'll be worth the time. The blacked out cuss words felt pretty dumb though.

[Vagrant]

Curious to see how Bishop managed to regrow all his missing body parts at the end of the world plus got himself a new costume, a well groomed beard, and a new time travel device. That's about the only thing I'm curious about in the series so far. Has a main cast that I can honestly say I don't care about a single one of the people.
