Happenstance Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Spider-Man looks too much like Fantomex to me. Plus him going around with yet another team, its Wolverine all over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Yeah, so what's the deal with Spidy and the Fantastic Four? Costumes look so slick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Human Torch is dead. So now it's the Fantastic Three (kinda) + Spidey, who was always kinda the unofficial 5th member (if there would have been one). Plus he was best friends with Human Torch, so yeah. Tribute I assume. Not read the issues. Invisible Woman looks less fun in that last picture, but yeah the costumes blow me so roughly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happenstance Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Well I finally did it, after all my indecisiveness over getting single issues again I got some today. Unfortunately despite it being new comic day for them, they had a bit of a pitiful collection so im ordering more tomorrow when Reed updates its site.

ReZourceman Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Gorgeous cover. Despite not getting the trades it might be nice to have this one (Viltrumite War in entirety, if that wasn't obvious) I'm lolling so much. The stars have aligned. I bought (and have read this week at lunch) Next Wave (nearly finished it) its really good (has anyone else read it) anyway, and todays clix preview is The Captain. SO LOL. The card has so many references I'm lolling so much. Amazing. I'm lolling so much. The stars have aligned.

Happenstance Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Hmmm, I need to make a decision on which comics im gonna go back to collecting in single issues full time. So far its just Avengers, New Avengers and maybe SHIELD. ASM im only just managing to read so I think paying money would hurt too much. Ultimate Spider-Man is still a maybe though as I have big collections of both the single issues and the trades for that so im not sure. A lot of the rest of the books I keep thinking I should just wait and get the trades but im not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Why do you buy singles? (Genuine question, like do you like reading the story as soon as it comes, or like having the physical issues). Invincible FTW TBF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I have just missed having the actual issues of things when they come out, I find I can appreciate the art etc a lot more that way. Invincible is a no, neither Reed or my comic shop order any in, plus I already have all the trades so far so theres no a lot of point getting singles now.

Magnus Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Reading single issues is like watching a TV show and waiting a month between act breaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 As always Immonens art is looking loverrrly on Fear Itself. Great and suitable colours too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 That also spoils one of the cliffhangers in the recent New Avengers issue (not that it wasnt obvious anyway though). But yes, its nice art. I first saw Immonens work on Ultimate Spider-Man and was never massively impressed, I think that was because I was always comparing it to Bagleys work instead of seeing it for what it was. It wasnt until New Avengers that I really started appreciating his art. Oh and I went back to my comic shop yesterday and bought Kick Ass 2 #1 as I realised I forgot to pick it up Thursday night with the rest of my comics.

Happenstance Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Sorry, that spoiler thing wasnt aimed at you. More at Marvel for releasing the image so soon after New Avengers #9. I dont mind either way, im a spoiler whore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Oh no yeah thats cool. I'll grab it today. Looking forward to reading Spider-Man too. Might pick up Flash as the premier hardcover is out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 What do you guys think of the recently named "Power Woman" then? I dont particularly like it myself, no costume and I never really liked the name Power Man so Power Woman isnt much better. Plus I dont think she needs to be linked with Luke Cage so much all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happenstance Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I havent been reading Secret Avengers but has Beast gone back to a more ape like creature? Im sure ive seen a few recent promotional images and possibly an Avengers issue where he doesnt seem to look like a cat anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 You know its typical, for months now I kept looking at the Superman: Brainiac trade in Waterstones.
