Another OT, another OP where Marvel has top billing.
Read some more of 52. The Charlie/Renee thread is easily the best of the lot. Black Adam and Co seem to have disappeared somewhere. Steel/Luthor thread seems to be heading towards the final conflict. Still can't see where Ralph is going. But after
. The flow of time is very weird. Each issue pertains to a certain week but the pace of the arcs themselves vary quite a bit.
Shouldn't have missed that penalty if he had wished to stick around.

the Skeets reveal, I am starting to get suspicious of Dr. Fate's helmet. Skeets has also disappeared btw

Until the new Midnighter/Apollo Worlds Finest Couple miniseries starts in October at least.

I'd love to but Image hates Digital.
Or maybe it's just Matt Fraction. The Casanova digital trades chopped out the special edition material and now the latest issues have the Chabon backups chopped out.
Not cool. We're Americans too.

LMAO no it's not. That book's regular creators jumped off that ship like it was made out of tires that were also on fire.
Fuck that shit.

So it's a relaunch/renumbering/renaming of New Avengers with other Ewing characters jumpinh into the fray and Red Hulk added.
It's a Ewing book so I'll continue to pick up the issues or the trade like I do with New Avengers.

So, I've taken it upon myself to attempt to catch up on the Marvel universe. I've always wanted to be up with continuity, but have never actively tried. So, I found a "reading order" for Marvel NOW! to Secret Wars. "This will be easy!" Oh dear. I was wrong.

Take this. Then knock out things I don't care about (Ex: Fantastic Four) and holy shit its still a lot. So far I've carved my way down the list to Avengers Arena over the course of roughly two weeks. I've skipped a few like FF and Gambit, quit some others because I wasn't into it like X Men Legacy and Dark Avengers. Still a lot... But I'm gonna do it. I'm going to conquer this beast.

Why are people so upset at Marvel due to the divided we stand relaunch? All it is is a new run of story arcs. They said awhile back that they are going to start doing this kinda thing every so often after a big event. It's not a reboot or anything. You probably wouldn't even notice if they hadn't branded it as some sort of big deal.

Speaking about catching up with Marvel, I wonder how Mr.Luchador's reading is going. Last I remember, I think he made it past 1000 issues.

Grayson annual makes me wonder who "Colin Kelly" and "Jackson Lanzig" are.

I love how they mention the actual source of the article as late as humanly possible. What a disgusting display of "journalism"
Thats why I made a screenshot and uploaded it. Dont deserve the clicks.

We really need a new comic website or the newspapers to take over. All the old comic news sites have been bought or turned into the same clickbait sites as so many others.
I pretty much only go to CBR for exclusive interviews now. I still visit ComicsAlliance once a week. Bleeding Cool has somehow become the most honest site.

Captain America Steve Rogers #2
This is one of the worst and most boring issues I've read of a comic in the past few weeks.
Spencer is somehow turning two Captain America titles into a snooze-fest.

The source is way worse. They don't mention the artist one time, and even credit the character sketches to Marvel Comics. CBR credits Medina.
Beaten, looks like New Avengers will win the war set up now
I thought Red Hulk got depowered?

You should actually go back and read Fantastic Four and FF if you want some of the threads leading into Hickman's Avengers and New Avengers which lead into Infinity and Secret Wars. Really all you need to read are those books and Bendis's All New X-Men and Uncanny X-Men.

no one. it is a known challenge. just google it

hmph
but why?
even as someone who reads a lot, I can't imagine reading that much stuff and retaining any of it or enjoying it
maybe reading comics isn't about enjoyment.

You could hit that by doing two 10-issue days per week. That's doable.

I'm very confused by this. More importantly, why is Danielle Cage there?

Not good for your post count moving forward, dude.
You can talk about how much stuff you know hundreds of times, and you have. But you can only tell us the stuff you know once.
;D
