There's also the Telltale GOTG game as well. Which could go very well if they treat it similarly to their Borderlands series.

So I guess I was waiting for someone else to post about this or someone to actually write a story, but a really cool thing happened at a comic store I was in last weekend!
I was at the store during this but I had no idea it was happening. I read the story later and thought it was cool but it didn't even click with me that I knew the person posting it until someone pointed it out.
So far I'm aware that Mark Waid, Sam Humphries, and some of the cast of Supergirl have responded or reached out to Mary. I think Greg Rucka is also going to send her/the store a bunch of signed stuff.

...I'm not crying, YOU'RE CRYING!

I just got sucked into Star Trek Timelines, but I'm already feeling remorse for the couple of quid I've thrown at it, so it'll probably be off my tablet by New Year.

I am trying to think about at least 2 comics starring famous fans of alcoholic beverages (not necessarily alcoholics) and so far all I got is Wolverine. Which other characters like a drink and what kind of drink do they like?

Sunspot appears to be a champagne and/or sparkling wine man according to Al Ewing. Probably only Californian wine now his team are on Uncle Sam's dime.

He absolutely has his own vineyard.

I would assume he invented some special Latverian liquor that is superior in all ways to wine, mead, ale and any other booze that RICHARDS! might partake of in his ignorance.

How is the new Jessic Jones book bad? Let me take a wild stab. Her and Luke are separated and the baby isn't around?

Kid's still around mostly, but yes, the former is correct. There may be a twist as the first arc introduced the idea of people from alternate realities or having the memories from other realities in the MU.
The other big reveal is the villain is the lady from CW2 with the empty briefcase. Surprise, she's now an evil mastermind, which defeats the purpose of a plot point Bendis himself created AND doesn't achieve what I think he wants it to (making Carol 'right all along') because she's only seeking revenge because of what happened in Civil War.

Well I'm glad he did the one thing that would make the book bad. Keeping that tradition of blowing up marriages in comics alive.
The second paragraph means nothing to me expect cw2 is bad from what I read, so being connected to cw2 is also bad.

I actually don't hate the book. Gaydos' art is still perfect for it, and Bendis does seem to be going somewhere with the Luke and Jessica thing (the last issue opened with a bizarre and clearly foreshadowing dream sequence). It's very in keeping with the Jessica Jones: Massive Self-sabotaging Fuckup from the early issues of Alias.

What we need right now is a very girly-looking cyborg.

I'd be down with Raiden fist fighting a buff Ted Cruz on top of a mecha.

Daredevil sort of did, but only if you consider Elektra, Stick and the Punisher to be 'heroes'.
