Why? Writing Thor with the hammer is kinda silly but it's not that funny, and her muscles look great, and how she's holding the- OH.

Is she supposed to be holding it like it's a dick? (I'm sure I'm reading too much into this but when you spend too much time looking at how the gently caress her legs work, you start noticing things).

Ugh, I just noticed this is Andrew Robinson. C'mon SON, you're better than this.

Also I still think it's either an older Thor daughter from those kid Avengers, or its one of All Father Thor's Granddaughters since two of them are blonde.

Having not read any of the Thor/Angela original sin crossover, I'm betting it's a sister of Angela not related to Thor.

Actually it being Sif and her going bleach blonde because gently caress it, sometimes a women wants a new hair color, would be kinda cool.

You should also read The Gauntlet which is the digital only Infinite book that was really good. It's also been collected in print I believe. Lot's of good Deadpool stuff happening recently. Duggan is pretty great with the character.

Soule's Thunderbolts had some pretty good Deadpool moments too. Though the art in some issues loving sucks.

You guys! It was super fun and surprisingly good! Poked a lot of fun at Hawkguy without Bering too annoyingly over the top Deadpool-y. Is the regular Deadpool series this good cos if so I might have to check it out.

In short, guys it was a Good Fun Comic!

Because of your recommendation I picked this up. I haven't read any other Deadpool comics before but I laughed at so much of this issue

I went to Baltimore Comic-Con on Saturday and went to the Marvel Universe Panel featuring Tom Brevoort, Charles Soule, Jim Starlin, Mark Morales, and Mark Waid. Nothing really new was revealed, but it was fun. Of the CON EXCLUSIVE ANNOUNCEMENTS, though, we got:

-Starlin has an idea for LADY THANOS but he needs to talk to Brevoort about it first.
-The guy in the CHIKARA shirt and hat was NOT Gavok.
-Lady Thor is NOT a lesbian (yes, someone asked this).
-Soule said that if he were to make a male She-Hulk, he would call him He-Hulk.
-Brevoort said that if Wolverine comes back, we can kill Soule.

Hey guys, I decided to get back into comics on a whim, and seeing the Marvel Now launch made that pretty easy. I was extremely excited to see a new Silver Surfer book since that was my favorite as a kid.

I was just wondering if anyone has a direct subscription from Marvel. Seems like a great deal but I'm concerned about the shipping. Do they put them in between boarding or do roll the dice hoping the comics aren't mangled each month?

If you have a decent tablet you're better off going digital. It's a crap shoot the quality of the book you get so you end up paying and praying. It's in the hands of the post office and that....gets dicey.

If you go the digital route, be sure to check out Marvel Unlimited. You get a huge back catalog (not complete mind you, but still very rewarding) and new issues are only 6 months behind. You pay at worst, $100/year for an all you can read scenario and you can easily buy new books directly from it.

It's not really Silver Surfer-y to be honest. It's like the Silver Surfer substituting for the Doctor in a Doctor Who script, and Slott keeps having him de-silver.

I had a couple subscriptions about eight years ago from marvel, and they were shipped wrapped in plastic, but no backing boards. Everything I got was completely undamaged though. They would usually arrive on the Thursday or Friday (comics are released on Wednesday) after the comic came out, and the one time I didn't get an issue, it was a quick call to get another copy sent.

That's the exact opposite of a "gently caress you MRA" cover though, visually implying that to be empowered a woman has to have a magic hammer phallus.

To be fair, in this case it is literally a woman who needs the magic phallus to be empowered.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I'm jumping all over the Marvel Unlimited option. I had thought it was an app to read digital versions of comics that cost the same as a print copy. This kind of service is perfect for me.
