Dan_Dare Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I can't see Dark Avengers continuing. Maybe the team will somehow hold together in another guise but I can't see Norman making any clean getaway and the whole book revolves around his power status as Iron Patriot. There's definitely enough Avengers out there to justify two books though, assuming they all 'stay on' once the dust settles.
gmac Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 yeah I can't see Dark Avengers continuing without Osborne on charge, at least not with that title, but the infighting that will inevitably follow his removal from power should be interesting to read
Dan_Dare Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 New Avengers #58 is awesome. Really good action issue with some quality scenes from Ares, Cap and Ms Marvel particularly.
Happenstance Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 So whats everyone reading at the moment? We only ever seem to talk about a few certain books in here and its been a while since ive seen everyones lists. At the moment I read: Amazing Spider-Man Web of Spider-Man Uncanny X-Men X-Men Legacy Ultimate Avengers New Avengers Dark Avengers Invincible Iron Man Captain America Reborn Ms Marvel Dark Wolverine Batman Batman & Robin Superman: Secret Origin Superman: World of New Krypton Green Lantern Blackest Night Superman/Batman Adventure Comics Invincible The Walking Dead Astounding Wolf-Man Irredeemable Thats all I can think of at the moment
Paj! Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Reading Uncanny X-Men, Batman and Robin and Invincible. Though I'm behind on the last two.
Shorty Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Batman and Robin? You don't mean the All Star one do you? People actually buy that?
Paj! Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Batman and Robin? Yes. You don't mean the All Star one do you? No. People actually buy that? Probably.
Shorty Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 What current Batman and Robin is going? I can't find info on it, I haven't followed any Batman releases since Hush.
Shorty Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Foserious. The team behind All Star Superman, which was teh win.
ReZourceman Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Dan, that New Avengers was FUCKING AWESOME. Cracking action. The artwork was absolutely stunning. Stu....(cant remember his surname) has really hit his stride with this book. Also The List Wolverine was awesome (Fantomex fucking rules) and The List Punisher was FUCKED UP. Daken literally cut Punisher into pieces The storyline after/what happens with "Franken-Castle" will be very interesting indeed. Lesse. If I can remember them all. Invincible Astounding Wolf-Man The Walking Dead Haunt The Sword Four Eyes New Avengers Dark Avengers Mighty Avengers (dropping due to bores me a bit) Avengers The Initiative Invincible Iron Man Captain America (Reborn atm) Wolverine Weapon X Secret Warriors Fantastic Four Uncanny X-Men Amazing Spider-Man Daredevil Venegance of the Moon Knight Thunderbolts Deadpool Punisher Ultimate Spider-Man Ultimate Avengers Hulk Spider-Woman War Machine (dropping due to its shit) o___0 Batman Batman and Robin Green Lantern Green Lantern Corps Blackest Night Irredeemable (dropping) TPB Scalped House of Mystery Dynamo 5 Preacher Hmmm. I should really cut some more. o____0
Happenstance Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Just finally finished reading Crisis on Infinite Earths for the first time....im a bit confused as: As far as I know only Psycho Pirate knows that there was a multiverse after this and its even mentioned but they didnt show that everyone else forgot and there was even funerals for Earth 2 Huntress etc. Plus when Infinite Crisis comes around nobody remembers then either (except Psycho Pirate)
gmac Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 atm I read Uncanny X-Men X-men Forever Captain America Ultimate Avengers Ultimate Spiderman Daredevil Deadpool The Marvels Project Green Lantern Green Lantern Corps Blackest Night Batman & Robin Invincible Walking Dead Wolfman Haunt Savage Dragon Mice Templar Chew In trades Iron Man (may start picking up singles now the WMW arc has finished) Thor (JMS) Sword Proof plus any trades or issues that catch my eye
ReZourceman Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Nice collection there, especially of Image. Whats Savage Dragon like? Might read the whole thing one day. PS How did I forget Chew? You should try Dynamo 5. I have a crush on one of them....which is weird cos' its a comic. But thats fine. She's hot. Come on look at that!
Dante Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 How much does all them comics cost you Rez and Gmac?
ReZourceman Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 How much does all them comics cost you Rez and Gmac? Majority are £2.10 some are £2.80.
Dan_Dare Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 The List: Punisher was quality. Not sold at all on the idea of Franken-Castle though.
ReZourceman Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 My mate is the same. The way I see it....its nice to have such a huge change to a major character but...I can't see where they're gonna go after it. Hopefully he will just be fully healed and just be all scarred. That'd be sweet. Then Daken could be one of his main villains.
Dan_Dare Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 They should just have the stones to stick with it. It'd be cool. No sign of The List: Wolverine yet. Looking forward to it though as Fontomex is baddass.
ReZourceman Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 Fuck is Fontomex? And yes it was a freaking great read. Aaron writes Wolverine just perfectly. READ WEAPON X ALREADY!
gmac Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 How much does all them comics cost you Rez and Gmac? if you mean overall, depending on the weeks realeases I spend between £7 and £20 a week on comics and ReZ I really like Savage Dragon, loving the current storyline
Dan_Dare Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 Mint Just finished 1-5 today. Billed as a kind of 'Logan does espionage' it's a pretty slick action adventure that's all kinds of lovely and self contained. Parts Bourne, Rambo and all things X, it's one of the better arcs I've read in a while and Wolverine is always good fun when written with panache. Only problem is that Grant Morrison had the genius stroke of re-casting the Weapon X program by using the X as '10'- going as far as XV in present day marvel-dom it was brilliant, brave, game changing and radical. Naturally, it's a move that's since been retconned in to oblivion by everyone who's taken a swing at James Howlet ever since
ReZourceman Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 Eh? It hasn't been retconned. But yes its FUCKING awesome. ------------- My weight loss isn't going well enough to go as Kraven to the Shindig.... So..... I'M GOING AS DAKEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gotta think of a retractable claw technique to make. If you have any ideas let me know.
Dan_Dare Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 Just make them out of bone. Seriously- go to a butchers and buy the biggest bones you can get yer hands on and carve them in to shape as for retraction....fuck knows. Short of going for the full Travis Bickle, I'm not sure what you'd use.
