Sara Pichelli was the artist when it launched so it did have that going for it.

The path to healing is slow but steady. Take a deep breath and try to realize where you are.

I don't take back anything I said there. I really liked FF until it got to the story where they went searching for the planet they were supposedly trying to get to during their original accident. I thought that was dumb and stopped picking it up then. Up until then everything with the marriage of Ben and Alicia, their honeymoon where he fought Hulk, the intro of Victorious... I like all of that quite a bit.

I see doing that if the book is nothing but 1 shots, like 1that Neil Gaiman "Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader" book happened in the middle of Morrison's run, but didn't include anything that related to the ongoing. I haven't read that in forever so I don't remember if it was longer than a normal issue or cost more though. But yeah, it's bullshit if Part 4 of 6 costs twice as much because there's unrelated stories in it.

Endless Mike posted:It was two slightly long issues. Comixology has Batman #686 as 33 pages and Detective Comics #853 as 28 pages (but it counts double-page spreads as one page). Okay, I think I read it has a collected edition, but my point still stands. You wanna charge 10 bucks for Action Comics #1000, fair enough, but don't make it required reading for people on a budget who are following the main story. And it'd also be better for the people who aren't reading the main story but have a vague like for Superman and want to buy a milestone issue if the first 24 pages aren't the mid point of a story they haven't read any of.

Black Cat continues to be wonderful. Heroes Reborn is surprisingly fun with its goofy conceit that these are the comics of an alternate universe 1992.

Looking at the current run of Fantastic Four, the only two more-expensive issues were #5 (the wedding of Ben and Alicia), and #25, and given the date of the post Roth was complaining about was issue #5. It cost six dollars, but the entirety of the issue was written by Slott with side-stories about the wedding/bachelor/bachelorette parties drawn by Mike Allred, Adam Hughes, and Aaron Kuder, so it doesn't really seem like an example either. It's definitely an example of a six dollar comic I mean, but it isn't one of those "throw in a bunch of unrelated stuff to jack up the price" milestone comics.

Edge & Christian posted:I can't tell if you're using Action Comics 1000 as a positive example, but the lead story in it was a more or less standalone one written by departing writer Dan Jurgens, who had wrapped up his last multi-part arc in Action #998 and wrote a capstone issue in Action #999. So it did contain a story by the outgoing creative team (and Tomasi/Gleason who were also departing from Superman at the same time), as well as a story by Brian Michael Bendis, but none of them were mid-story things, it was all standalone stories about Superman. Fantastic Four #1 was August 8th, 2018, which is the issue I was talking about.

Apparently Vulpes is co-writing a bunch of annuals that’s going to lead into a Black Cat story where she steals the Infinity Stones.

Yeah, I saw a promo for I think Iron-Man, are there more? Specifically are there more Vulpes is writing, I know there's a bunch of Annuals, but the other ones on the ad page where written by other people, Duggan on something, maybe Captain America?

To clarify re: Infinite Destinies, I am not co-writing everyone else's annuals, I'm not sure how that made it into the press release. I'm writing/have written the Iron Man, Black Cat and the Avengers annuals, as well as the Fury backups that run through the whole thing (and yes, I am aware that I'm about the only person who likes Fury, but you should see what Juan Ferreyra is doing with them). And thanks for supporting Black Cat over the last couple of years, goons, I appreciate it.

You deserve the support. Not just because you're a goon, but because you write really good books. Believe me, if you didn't write good books you'd hear it from this lot. Speaking of your books, I just saw the Moon Knight variants by Gerardo Zaffino and Peach Momoko and as someone that really doesn't like comic art on their walls I would put both of those on my walls. Also I love Fury, that mini that with the art by ACO was awesome. X-O fucked around with this message at 23:38 on May 12, 2021 |

Maybe they're waiting until that's done before they announce the next one? And Age of Sigmar 3rd Edition is coming soon so maybe they'll announce an AoS comic to coincide with that. But I might just be grasping at straws We're never getting an ongoing Lucius The Eternal comic series
