Posted July 17, 2009 awesomeness from this weeks books plus Kirkman confirmed Haunt for October in the letters pages On his Twitter he said he's doing 5 scripts a month now. Image United? ------------- Amazing Spider-Man #599 And thus ends the best run since BND started. Brilliant arc. Seriously fucking awesome IMO. Shame that Harry didn't keep the suit, but it serves the purpose of the story and the on going new status quo/relationship between Harry and Norman. Just loved all of it and the story elements its introduced. 9/10 ---------- Man Deadpool was hilarious, and so messed up. 9/10 Speaking of the upcoming Deadpool arc or story in Spider-Man on IGN, Joe Kelly totally punks them. IGN Comics: Can we expect to see 'Pool running across J. Jonah Jameson or any other Spidey supporting cast? Will there be any villains showing up? Kelly: That's a good idea! Yes! And, to answer your next question, since this plays into the larger "Gauntlet" storyline, we'll see some of the players who are behind that epic as well. But these be secrets! IGN Comics: The Gauntlet is also firing up in November. Is this a part of that larger storyline or is this the delicious desert before our main course? Kelly: Didn't I...didn't I just - are you listening?!? But if I wasn't being indignant, I'd say yes, it's a pre-dinner fried ice cream with a grenade inside. Yum. ---------- Man Deadpool was hilarious, and so messed up. 9/10 Speaking of the upcoming Deadpool arc or story in Spider-Man on IGN, Joe Kelly totally punks them.

Posted July 17, 2009 The way Norman was talking at the end was just disgusting in my opinion, the writing was just amazing too. What happened to norah at the end? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2009 I thought 599 was good but not up to the standards of the rest of the arc. From what I understood the info she got was that Osborn was onto her Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2009 Yeah thats what I read it as also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2009 To be honest, the first chapter was the best for me, then the 3rd and then 4th, then 5th and yeh, 2nd was ok but not amazing. My favourite bit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2009 Was this the American Son arc? I've not read Spiderman in a loooooooooong time (and I was monumentally put off by the whole shit retcon bollocks) but should I? I think I'll get hold of 600- especially as John Romita Jr is on hand to draw it. I've absolutely fallen in love with his work recently. Dark Avengers #7/ Utopia Pt. 3 is excellent. Mostly because it's all about Norman and Emma- easily the two best characters in Marvel atm. And Sentry unfortunately, it also features Draken or whatever the fuck he's called. What a totally fucking shit waste of time he is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2009 I still refuse to buy Spider-Man after Brand New Day but yeah this American Son arc has been pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2009 Yeah I liked Utopia. Beast I find the most interesting thing about it at the moment. Majorly fucked up indeed. God Normans a great character. Dark Reign has been great, and even though he's been in pretty much everything I don't particularly feel he's over exposed or anything. It is his storyline afterall I guess. Erm....oh Daken**. He's alright. Come on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2009 Do we think that the slight emergance of the Green Goblin in one of the previous issues is going to be a big part in Osborns eventual downfall? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2009 I'd say definitely. Deadpool has a great way of completely simplifying everything thats happening in the Marvel universe, and theres a great bit of dialogue between Deadpool and Hawkeye where Hawkeye mentions Osborn will fall eventually.

Posted July 17, 2009 He's not. He's like a bad tween fanfic version of Wolverine ONLY MORE BADDASS. Totally shit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2009 Thats what im looking forward to the most Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2009 I see DR ending like so: The Avengers (New and Mighty) reform/team up/whatever and take on the Dark Avengers Norman looses it, goblins out, ends up getting whupped by Spiderman and Iron Man together then some set up for next year. edit: oh and Clint Barton is going to be Hawkeye again. betcha.

Posted July 17, 2009 Betcha? Be a fool to bet against that. Clint/Hawkeye is Bendis' favourite character. It'll happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
