Absolutely seconded.

Bandette is great and costs a buck on Comixology!

What lovely art and a fun, funny story.

Usagi Yojimbo is fantastic. Stan Sakai also did a really lovely adaptation of the 47 Ronin too.

Thanks! Is this avail on Unlimited? Because I'm considering that service, and this seems like something I would gobble up.

Appears it isn't. They had me at James Robinson too.

I didn't enjoy the start of Aaron's Thor but I just reread Accursed and loved it. So I want to go back and reread the rest in a row, not as a month to month experience.

Also I want to reread the JMS stuff, what's the reading order?

Hickman's FF was tough for me. I reread it but a lot of the sciency stuff went over my head. I did enjoy it overall but are having a similar problem with the Avengers now.

I'm just about to finish off the Fraction runs of F4 and FF and FF is pretty good but F4 hot really poor after a good start.

But my favourite of them all is James Robinson's current run.

I agree with Zaph about YA. Also Hawkeye probably won't appeal to a 10 year old. Wolverine and the X-Men would be terrific, I'd also recommend Mz Marvel and Nova. New Warriors is okay too.

Outside of superheroes, Lookouts and Bandette would be real stimulating and look gorgeous.

I didn't really like Waid's Hulk.

You should check out Planet Hulk though, it's brilliant.

I completely agree with these opinions.

What's the reasoning for the dislike of Kevin Smith's Daredevil again. Had an urge to read it and need to be talked off the ledge.

e: starting a reread of the character

Avengers Season One and Avengers The Origin are on sale at Comixology. How are they regarded?

I went into that big cosmic reading order last year and was really happy for it. All the main stuff by Abnett and Lanning was really good, especially Nova. Some of the tie ins can be skipped (I didn't bother with Son of Hulk). I highly recommend it. Made me like everyone of the characters so much more. I prefer it to the current GotG.

If the Darkhorse digital sale is still going you can get some Usagi there; it's awesome.

Is Avengers vs Thanos still on sale on Comixology?

Also I just reread the Silver Surfers by Starlin leading up to Thanos Quest last week, they were excellent still and I read them when they were published.

What's he order with Inhuman, Uncanny Inhumans and Attilan Rising?

You can buy Scott Pilgrim with a VPN possibly.

I used to buy Godzilla in Japan that way but that was back when I could do IAP in the App.

Also isn't it supposed to be on sale? I only need 6 in colour but it's showing 14.99 for me.

Extremis -> Fraction's Invincible Iron Man is a good beginner combo, I think. Mostly because IIM is collected in really nice, inexpensive hardcovers.

I've done Ellis then skipping to Fraction a couple times and one of my all time favourite runs on a character.

Can't say the stuff in between is bad, just didn't read it for some reason.

Just started retreading Morrison's X-Men.

Where was the foundation of the nation of Genosha laid out?

So there was basically no development of the island for ten years between that and the destruction?

The big thing related to Genosha prior to Morrison's run was that Magneto had gone there while the population were suffering from the Legacy Virus (mutant AIDS). When that was magically cured, Magneto suddenly had a large, healthy mutant army at his disposal. That was the Eve of Destruction storyline from Uncanny 392-393 and X-Men (Vol. 2) 111-13.

Will check those out when I get Unlimited again. Thanks Zaph and everyone else!

I was reading a decent amount of Marvel before the dumb Axis thing stepped in and started ruining all my storylines. Is that poo poo and whatever multiverse fuckery that happened done with?

I was really digging the "fun" titles (Ms. Marvel, Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, Loki: Agent of Asgard, Superior Foes of Spider-Man). Are those or something similar still going? Also any gritty street-level stuff on the same wavelength as Daredevil before the move to San Francisco?

Im reading Ales Kot's Secret Avengers right now and it is definitely fun.

Is Astro City not just a weak knock off of've Top Ten? If that's not the case, I will set aside time to purchase and peruse.

The 2012-15 series has a few awesome issues that take place in the 1970s. They are incredibly funny.

It's great especially Nova and pre famous Guardians.

Peter David's X-Factor run is my favourite team book. So many great characters you can't go wrong with it though it (pun not intended) peters out.

I'm newly daughtered as well but I don't think it really has made me want to read more female driven Marvel books but Patsy Walker, Ms Marvel, Spider Woman, Silk, Squirrel Girl are all excellent reads. Probably my favourites. Check out Charles Soule's She Hulk too.

What's Gwenpool like? I didn't care much for Spider Gwen after the initial 5 run mini series.
