The best thing about Battle of the Atom was future Mustache Colossus, with second place going to Gandalf Iceman, but I don't think even those things combined made up for dragging an at most 3 issue story out to ten issues over 3 books.

I kinda wish present Molly met future Molly, at least before future Molly gets killed. Her reactions would have been great, and halfway make up for how terrible the character and storyline were.

Future Molly didn't actually die, Magiks sword has a stun setting.

Come on, you know Molly is out having adventures with Doop in mind-boggling alternate realities.

I'm guessing that version of Molly was from one possible future, so maybe she won't turn out to be a giant, roided-out steampunk reject. Well, at least she gets to be strong enough to brawl with colossus.

I love the current Marvel trend of getting amazing artists on b-list character's books (writer too in this case).

Either those magnetic gloves are drawing the pistols to Jango INCREDIBLY slowly, or Count Dooku (that is Dooku, right?) is talking like Alvin the Chipmunk.

Because Alternate Reality Mojo is almost always going to be boring and 'more-of-the-same' while Alternate Reality Galactus can be something awesome. What more reason do you need?

What do you expect in this economy? Two Apaches are cheaper than 40 jetpacks.

That makes a lot of sense. "Professional Ninja" can't rake in a ton of money these days, they're lucky they can even afford clothes (unlike those really poor ninjas in Nextwave).

Not badass violence, but badass artwork. The latest chapter of the manga Berserk is out after over a years absence and the art is incredible.

I'd crosspost that in the Good Art thread if I were you, though it is badass in its way. I think its funny that after all the resentment and frustration with Miura's delays and storytelling, he can still shut me the gently caress up when he releases something.

Iron Man #24: Tony Stark is trying to hunt down the rings of the Mandarin, which have become sentient. However, the rings have recently caught the eye of Malekith, the dark elf antagonist from the last arc of Thor God of Thunder, who's trying to collect them all. So Tony tried to invade Svartalfheim to get them back but hosed up his stealth mission and now the elves are hunting him. Additionally, his suit's damaged and he's injured.

Holy poo poo, maybe I shouldn't have dropped Iron Man so soon. I got bored with it after a few issues, and I think Land was on it? Is there a good spot to hop on?

Is there a good spot to hop on? #18 is where Land leaves art and the current arc gets going. Although honestly if you can stomach the Land art, I'd really say everything since #6 has been good. (1-5 are a boring as hell and ultimately inconsequential Extremis story) e: #17's a good issue too even if you don't read the rest of the arc it's attached to, as it introduces Tony's new brother Arno.

There's no terrorist or Mandarin, but a bunch of guys with ill-defined powers are around while Tony narrates "Extremis is BAD".

Land doesn't bother me too much as long as the story is good, so I'll try to find 6 and up. It's just Land plus Boring equals Oh Hell No. And yeah, it was the crappy Extremis plot that made me drop.
