The winner is Universe 2008. It's the same as 616 but for some reason the Fantastic Four and Mutants never existed. The Inhumans are super popular though. Seriously. Please.

Yeah, my hunch re: all these 'event books' being announced is that they tie in to Hickman's Secret Wars (which itself is probably going to be the natural culmination of his Avengers/NA run), whether as some kind of story beat or as featured universes or what have you. It'll be a big event about big events, a meta-event, if you will.

Die Laughing posted:Has there been any good modern What Ifs? Been working on my What If collection, and I'm wondering if I should just stick to the older ones. About to read the Wolverine Lord of the Vampires one after dinner. Ones that are really good from the last 10 years: What If: The Devil That Dares (Daredevil in Feudal Japan) What If Thor was the Herald of Galactus? What If: X-Men: Deadly Genesis What If: Planet Hulk What If: Annihilation (one of my all-time favorite comics) What If: X-Men: Rise and Fall of the Shi'ar Empire (hideous art, but I love the actual story) What If: Civil War What If: Spider-Man vs. Wolverine What If: New Fantastic Four What If: Newer Fantastic Four What If: Secret Wars What If: World War Hulk (for the first story, which has the most metal ending ever) What If Venom Possessed Deadpool? What If: Age of Ultron #2-4

I hope that the Avengers/New Avengers run ends independently of this event madness. Because it just sounds like a hot mess I don't want to have anything to do with at this point. We're like 2 days away from them announcing the Inferno re-event.

OK, because more edits would be absurd, I'll clarify, these things are pretty much definitely part of Secret Wars, and Secret Wars is liable to be an extension of what's already happening in Avengers. So no, they won't be independent, even if Avengers ends before any of this stuff becomes directly relevant.

I think Avengers/New Avengers will have a solid conclusion but a few dangling threads left that Hickman will use for Secret Wars. The tie-in stuff may or may not be good.

I hope Hickman is writing all these, that would be amazing. I imagine that someone not getting the praise Hickman gets yelling at him one day during a writers retreat "If you're so good why don't you remake a bunch of these events that people thought sucked and make them good!" Hickman nodded then immediately began sketching flowcharts and bubbles.

Cadavers4Algernon posted:How'd he bite it? Short version focusing on issue 4 only: He hunts down a guy named Cornelius, the mad old dude who is still trying to perfect the process of Adamantium-infusing mafuckas. Cornelius begins the process on three mafuckas who are strapped down and runs away, essentially saying gently caress it, gotta run. Wolverine smashes the big tank of molten Adamantium and presumably saves their lives, but he gets covered with Adamantium. Somehow he manages to follow the trail of Cornelius' blood, cause the old dude got impaled by some glass without really realizing it. Up on the roof, Wolverine either lets the guy die of his injuries or delivers the killing blow (it's not shown) and falls to his knees while the Adamantium solidifies around him. I didn't hate it. I thought it was pretty good, even.

The rumor dude is claiming they are launching a "Tales of Wolverine" series next year telling stories of his early days. Can't not have a Wolverine book on the stands for too long.

Wolverine: The John Lennon look doesn't work for you, bub. Cornelius: Irrelevant! Behold, as I usher in a new age of peace for mankind! Wolverine: How exactly does an army of adamantium-infused brainwashed super-soldiers make things better? Cornelius: ...it just does, okay. Wolverine: Whatever. So what's my role in this? Cornelius: My yellow regeneration serum isn't good enough! The soldiers keep dying. But, once I extract your healing factor, my soldiers will be unstoppable!! Wolverine: (slowly pulls out a cigar, lights it, and takes a puff) Let me get this straight. You spent a fortune worldwide on the best bounty hunters money can buy, all of whom seemed to know that I had lost my healing factor, but somehow you never bothered to verify that for yourself? Cornelius: ...poo poo. Wolverine: I wasn't kidding, bub. Those glasses look really dumb on you. Cornelius: How dare you insult my glasses! My super-soldier will kill you now... darn. Wolverine: For no reason, I will slash this tank and become coated in liquid adamantium. Hmmm, it must be several hundred degrees and I've lost my healing factor, why am I not incinerated instantly? Best not to think about it. Cornelius: Darn, there's a foot-long shard of glass protruding from by chest which I didn't notice until now. I hate it when that happens. Wolverine: Hmmm, the adamantium has solidified, so I guess I'd dead. I mean, no one could possibly survive that, right? Right?
