I used to be able to grab the page jpgs from Firefox's cache after loading the comic. That hasn't worked in a while. I don't think it's a bad except for going pretty low res on double page spreads. You should check out the Marvel Unlimited reader. Woof.

I really enjoyed that era, especially after Secret Invasion. Just catching up on Remender's Punisher now, I like it even more. e: Have you been reading Secret Warriors? That a great part of it.

zoux posted:Oh as for a question what are the main Avengers books post Civil War? I know they split into the official and secret teams, but every time there's a huge event they split or change the Avengers books, it seems. Bendis kept up on the mainline Avengers book right up till Hickman in the Marvel NOW!. So, New Avengers and Mighty Avengers up through Secret Invasion, Dark Avengers and New Avengers during Dark Reign, Avengers and New Avengers from there till AvX, then Hickmania. There was also Secret Avengers after Dark Reign starting with Ed Brubaker writing, which is a lot of fun. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 22:08 on Mar 3, 2014 |

Speaking of, I just read through Secret War yesterday, and it's amazing how blatantly she's just a still of Angelina Jolie from Hackers traced over and over and over.

There was a lot of fudging to get most of those centennials. I think there was a Brian Bendis reply to a question on how exactly some title or other added up to it's milestone number, and it was real silly. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 18:12 on Mar 6, 2014 |

It was amazing that Morrison even attempted to contextualize and legitimize Batman's ridiculous history. Even though most of the wacky adventures were relegated to isolation experiment hallucinations, it was a feat.

It's covered a little in the last All-New X-Men or Guardians of the Galaxy in prep for Rucka's Teen Cyclopes and Space Dad comic. e: Does current Rachel Summers know she'd been with grown up Franklin in the future?

Sounds a lot like Joe the Barbarian, except that's about a kid who's hallucinating.

USM 200 is going to have a tribute to his life or something. There's apparently a SHOCKING ENDING, but if Peter is getting resurrected it's not apparent from what we know about the Ultimate relaunch. They're going to do a Spider-Men sequel if you'd like to see Miles interact with a Peter Parker.

Shitshow posted:So, I might be marked as a heretic for saying this, but after reading the first two volumes of Sandman for the first time, I'm feeling like this series is just the most over-rated tripe. I mean, it's okay, but so far does not live up to the hype. Does it get better? Try volume 3. It's a group of fantastic stand-alone stories with the main characters in the periphery. I've been reading since the digital sale a few months ago. I'm up to Brief Lives now and the four issues in Dream Country are definitely my favorites.

I dunno about the earliest, but The Trial of The Flash was a famously drawn out story for the time. It takes up a whole 592 page Showcase collection by itself. e: That's 1983.

Yeah. I thought it would pick right up with the reveal of Dr. Mindbubble, but it just didn't. How crazy and entertaining could you make your comic with that as an antagonist?

Yeah. I've only been reading Sandman since it went on sale when Overture #1 came out and it's funny how kinda packed with DC stuff it was for the few issues before Vert. Some of it was really interesting like the issue about Element Girl. bobkatt013 posted:The last storyline has appearances by Superman, Batman, Martian Manhunter, and Darkseid sitting. Hmm.

I heard somebody write into the iFanboy podcast about her age when she hooked up with The Falcon in the last issue of Cap, but I, like the people on the podcast can't remember her being presented as a kid (e: at the end of the arc), though maybe there is something in there. I know he was on the planet for ten years. Pretty sure the was 'adult' at the end of it. Mr. Maltose posted:She looked like 8~10 when Steve first broke out with the baby in Cap, but a major issue is that asking a comic book artist to draw a child is such a crapshoot she might have been 5 or 15. That'd make her around 20 with the time that passed, right? e: Oh man some of the linked stuff in here http://robot6.comicbookresources.com/2014/07/falcon-jet-scene-in-captain-america-22-sparks-calls-for-remenders-firing/.
