OFFICIAL COMIC BOOK THREAD

[x Buddha Bless x]

Also beware that as expected by fans who knew, Uncanny Avengers is getting pushed back like crazy. Most likely due to the artist being unable to keep monthly schedule of 22 pages. Just kinda been leaked even issue 4 is getting pushed back to Feb. Any Marvel solicitations may be suspect for that month.
I thought they were planning this book since the beginning of the year. They should've gave Cassaday more buffer time

Wow, I was really looking forward to this run...

Can anyone enlighten me as to how exactly cyke gets out a prison? (For Uncanny X-Men)

He got out of prison in AvX Consequences # 5. Should check out all 1-5, good stuff by Gillen finishing his run on these X characters.

Marvel Comics' February 2013 Solicitations NOW!

ASM 697, Venom 27, Avengers Assemble 9, The Walking Dead 104, Fantastic Four 1

Invincible 97 though (I don't know what the **** Kirkman was thinking, it's like he did that just to do it. The intentional next page with the comic creator explaining why they do w/e they want in indie comics didn't really help at all. Whole thing seemed wild unnecessary but then again he never did much with the character and I doubt fans got invested).

some pick-ups from MyComicShop.com came in; gonna hit my local shop tomorrow after work

finally completed my Deadpool Pulp & Deadpool ('94) miniseries sets

completed my Kevin Smith Green Arrow mini-arc with Onomatopeia (IMO one of the dopest villains in the DC universe. Really wish he'd return in Batman or Batman Detective Comics. Loved him the "Widening Gyre" miniseries)

re-bought "The Decoy" Deadpool 1-shot with Wolverine too. lost my first one, it's a pretty funny short story. I love the weird friendship/rivalry that Wade & Logan have. rumor is if "The Wolverine" & Deadpool movies do well, Marvel is open to an X-Force movie. Mark Millar (Kick-***, Secret Service, Super Crooks, Hit-Girl) has been contacted by Marvel already to pen a rough draft script

Can someone explain avengers Arena to me and why that is a good idea. I dont wanna see a book where they just OFF a bunch of C-listers. Marvel is NOT DC they can do better then that.

 

[trilluminated]

supercrooks is 

anything similar to the walking dead? 

i'm currently reading preacher on da kindle.

Marvel Comics On Sale November 21, 2012

I mean it's w/e either way really. We'll either get a great story with the premise of characters dying (something as good as the Battle Royale manga) or it'll be something average that won't last long. From what I've seen from other writers (@ Marvel) they're raving about the first issue.

I'm just hoping in the end Arcade dies. One of the lames villains ever created that gets used as an actual threat and apparently others like to even want to write him. It was one thing I thought of with this book is that it'd be better if it was Mojo running it, it's right up his alley.

pick-ups from my local spot this week:

and FINALLY located 2 of the 3 Batman issues from Flashpoint! pretty hard to find

For those that don't know what Flashpoint is about, basically Barry Allen (The Flash) wakes up to discover he is in an altered timeline in which Citizen Cold is Central City's greatest hero; his mother Nora (deceased in his own timeline) is alive; his father, Henry, died of a heart attack three years ago (instead of in prison); and that the Flash, the Justice League, and Superman do not exist.

Which leads into this Batman miniseries where

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Bruce Wayne is murdered instead of his parents. His father, Thomas Wayne becomes Batman & his mother, Martha becomes The Joker

Took a break from comics, but I'm about to catch up this weekend

re-bought "The Decoy" Deadpool 1-shot with Wolverine too. lost my first one, it's a pretty funny short story. I love the weird friendship/rivalry that Wade & Logan have. rumor is if "The Wolverine" & Deadpool movies do well, Marvel is open to an X-Force movie. Mark Millar (Kick-***, Secret Service, Super Crooks, Hit-Girl) has been contacted by Marvel already to pen a rough draft script

Haha i was pretty amused reading The Decoy. Some good lulz

Nice pickups

I went to my shop pretty late but found the last available Joker die-cut Suicide Squad #14 and also got ahold of this Walking Dead #103 (for some reason I missed out on it last time)

that entire scene when Wolverine shows up @ Wade's apartment, he gets out the shower (after Wolverine caught him singing Beyonce "Single Ladies"), and refuses to put a towel on

True. I need to get my saver list to them.

I just picked up the new Batman & Robin HC, along with the AvX hardcover. Can't wait to finally catch up with everything that happened in AvX.

I really enjoyed Avengers vs. Xmen but I was hoping for a Jean Grey sighting at the end of issue 12

Many fans bicker a bit over whether that was her in the end telling Scott to let go or w/e in silhouette or whether it was Hope. I get what you're saying though, she should've really returned in some way.

In my opinion that was jean's voice .
I happened to walk into a comic shop cause I was in the area and the guy told me if I came back on Saturday, he was gonna do a buy $100 get $25 off special. Gonna head back to pick up some variants I saw.
