I've never liked the Vision as a character despite being a huge Marvel fan. It's been almost a year, and I still haven't come to grips with the Vision being the best Marvel (possibly best super hero) book. And that's not knocking Marvel's current output, because most of their books are quite good.

Sorry about your loss. Almost jumped down your throat there. My mom had breast cancer twice, and can't really work because of nerve damage, but at least she's alive. Thor is a really good book though. She's probably my favorite out of the new characters with old names that Marvel is full of.

Endless Mike posted:It's been a minute since I read it, but wasn't the actual reason that 616 Reed was the only one with his father around since the rest of the Nathans all killed each other? I think you can imply that one leads to the other. The rest chose science over their families because they didn't have a dad.

Thor and Doctor Strange are both dealing with the cost of power. What books besides Thor and Ms Marvel feel like traditional super hero books anymore? Not a lot of secret identities these days.

Besides that arc in the Heroic Age Avengers, the Illuminati was awesome. Not many of them left these days. Things aren't looking good for Stark, and Namor is still dead, right?

I'm just poking holes. Joe Kelly was my first monthly JLA writer, but I have a foggy memory. I remember a story with a monkey. Who was on the replacement JLA during the Obsidian Age? I see Nightwing, Green Arrow, Hawkgirl (because Captain Marvel refused), the Atom, and Firestorm, but I don't recognize the last two.

All because they weren't "giving back to their community." That was the Detroit one. Someone gifed the panel of him spinning a basketball on his finger as he's like "Mind if I dial in?"

Tatum Girlparts posted:yea post-9/11 Cap unmasked himself as a show of being for America rather than glory and poo poo. One of the few 9/11 Marvel things that was actually pretty solid. Did that come with him making his big "America doesn't know what it is right now" speech or was that a Civil War thing? He didn't want America being blamed for killing the terrorist, because the terrorists guys whole thing was about punishing Americans for the countries involvement in foreign affairs. "America didn't kill him. I did."

akulanization posted:it already reads like a hateful parody. It's not actually hateful if you actually read the books. There's a lot of dark stuff, but there's always something heart warming to pull it out of the dirt. The issue about consumerism ends with Wilma telling Fred she doesn't need a bunch of useless crap, and he picks up Dino after asking "What's it do?" "Nothing." "I'll take it." The election issue has Pebbles become class president, the genocide issue has Barney adopt Bam Bam after agonizing about not being able to conceive a child, etc;

Anybody get the Young Animal vinyl last week? There's a kind of cool opening/closing for the sampler book by Gerard Way and Mike Allred? It's a cool attempt to sell comics to a hipper crowd. Also, I really want Robot Man's "Heavy Meta" shirt. I just want a Doom Patrol shirt.

drrockso20 posted:Honestly I'm surprised they haven't done more Squirrel Girl/New Wolverine crossovers, they'd make a great duo(plus any opportunity for Doreen to appear in a book that isn't drawn by the artist for her own book is a good thing) I agree. Laura should show up in Squirrel Girl. Jubilee can return to explain that Laura's claws don't actually go "snikt", it's her making the sound.

Then your alternative is the Hulk smashing your rear end. Original Sin had some good tie ins. The Avengers one is great, even though (or perhaps because) it had nothing to do with the event.

Quit trying to ruin Christmas. Squirrel Girl was perfect the way it was. That creative team synced up very well, and I lost interest after Henderson left, though I’m sure it’s still a good book. Thanks for posting those covers though. I miss Howard the Duck.

It’s not. Bagley is doing art on that book, and the latest issue is in the 70’s. I think there was a recent Spectacular Spider-Man Annual that had Allred doing a story.

site posted:one thing i think thats missing in context of these panels in particular is that its soon after this arc that cap goes back and becomes a raging rear end in a top hat who devotes all his (and shields) time trying to hunt down the illuminati because they wronged him, and not actually doing anything about the incursions. Then Cap and Iron Man die in the mud, beating the poo poo out of each other as the universe collapses.

Meltzer excels at character moments. It’s plot that he has the problem with. EDIT: I was distracted by the ladies face in the third panel on the bottom, so, I didn’t notice that the couple with the baby is actually two men.

Depending on the story, either Cyclops would bank a shot to hit Kate in the back when she’s not expecting it, or she’d phase his visor off his head, leaving him functionally blind.
