Continuity was thrown out the window with All New, All Different.
Stuff like Amazing Spider-Man contradicts Invincible Iron-Man, and these are 2 of the leading books.

Why does he wear the mask!?
I hate ASM atm, really dislike Tony Stark 2.0 Peter
Moon Knight # 3: Smallwood's art continues to impress but the story fumbles halfway through by covering the "Moon Knight is insane, m'kay?" road once more after Warren Ellis retconned that so that it wasn't making a mockery of DID (he just suffered from brain damage while Khonshu occupied his fragile consciousness through four aspects). It's a shame because the last issue was great in continuing the "is this real or is Marc really insane" question that's been lingering over this entire time i.e. you don't need to be convinced, you just need to believe as opposed to this issue which at one point tells Marc to embrace his madness as it's his best quality. It's not bad by any means, but I get the feeling that this arc might not be for me. I'll keep reading it to see where it goes since I do want to see what this is leading up to, but i'm really hoping they don't go down the insanity route when the ongoing series starts after this five-issue arc.
Ms. Marvel #7: A highly enjoyable commentary on the "heroes fighting heroes instead of, y'know, the baddies" event Marvel is set to tackle again with Civil War II. Not much to say beyond it being a great done-in-one that criticizes the event it's meant to tie into. Kudos, Ms. Wilson!

Just here for the monthly "Vision is so damn good" update.
I actually missed last month's due to an issue at my local shop, but managed to get both today and... god, that Scarlet Witch issue was brutal. Like, really, it's sort of a microcosm of the whole Vision storyline - you KNOW it's all going to end up in the shitter, and that casts this awful shadow over even the happy moments. The final page with Vision and Virginia in bed was chilling.
As was the panel at the art museum with Victor in Issue 8 - one where Vision is just... looking at him. He's so impossibly hard to read. It's like something out of a horror movie.

The Spider-Women crossover between Jessica Drew, Silk, and Spider-Gwen was a joy to read. Wish more crossovers were as fun as that.
Just like Richard Rider fans do every time they try to read that garbage.
There's more than one Nova, get over it already. Yours died.
Seriously, it was a good issue.
No.
Essentially. He had two good years out of thirty. Nobody's actually a Richard Rider fan. They're Annihilation fans.
Abnett and Lanning rebooted the character and made him great. Nobody claims otherwise.
Sam Alexander is absolute trash. They don't want to use Rider? Fine, but please stop with this awful ass character.
This is absolutely not true even if it may not be the case for you.
Also, I can understand not liking Sam, but he's not trash.

Rider was good to great in New Warriors.
Speaking of 90s heroes that haven't been seen in a while....
Marvel appears to be digging Ravage 2099 back up from the grave. But can't be bothered to spell his name right?
There aren't enough LOLs in the world
Ms. Marvel starts her newest run as a member of the Avengers, so ANAD Avengers 1-3 comes before any of that, since it's the origin story of the new team. Probably Avengers 4-6 as well, as it's also kind of "origin-y." Otherwise they run independently, without any real crossover content-wise, and it doesn't seem likely that they will.
So I'd probably alternate Avengers -> Ms. Marvel -> Avengers, volume by volume (or in single issue chunks of six if that's your plan).
so what's the word on the best ANAD runs?
Ms Marvel & The Vision are the 2 i keep hearing about.
dope, thanks

Aside that, I am enjoying Abnett's Hercules, Dr. Strange and Invencible Iron-man. But consider that I am on Unlimited, so 6 months behind.
I found the new Hulk fun, and enjoying a little bit the Inhumans titles. But those are not the best of ANAD.
In addition to those 2:
Ultimates
Uncanny Inhumans
Hercules
Doctor Strange
Those are all good.

Ah, forgot about Ultimates, how could I? The best ANAD team book.

Squirrel Girl, Vision, and Mockingbird are the ones I'm most excited to read when they drop. They're great.
Black Widow and Power Man and Iron Fist are also very good
I dropped everything else from Marvel but these
Yea Scarlet Witch is interesting. It seems to change artists every issue, but that greece issue was gorgeous. But yea the writing is pretty middling.
I also like Scarlet Witch, but it's super spotty. The recent France issue was gorgeous, but man, that story was some real cliché crap. But Greece and the Witches' Road were both great.
The covers alone are worth price of entry though.
i feel like Aaron's work reads better collected. will check out Dr Strange when it's wrapped up.
You know, I was sort of suspending my disbelief with Squirrel Girl. I mean, she's cool, but her squirrel army felt a bit overpowered. Sure, they're numerous, but they're also small and don't look like a great threat.
But then I saw this video. Damn these rodents are fast! These two are just playing, but I can see how an army of them determined to put you down can be super effective.

hes getting shat on pretty hard. hes a death away to be a forced competitor in the suffering olympics
Yeah they don't cut Sam any breaks. Tony Stark should pay to relocate his family from New Mexico to New Jersey at least-cut down on Sam's commute!
I've grown to like Sam. He's been disparaged enough for being "Kid Nova" and not "Richard Ryder" - but he's a capable hero and they definitely portray him as a real person with his faults. Becoming an Avenger with Miles and Kamala has opened him up a bit and made him more likable because he can bounce off those two.

It's a bit sad looking at the list of cancelled or ending books now when Marvel Now! 2.0 is on the way and this thread will die and be reborn(or "rebirthed" if you go by what Bendis says).
- Black Knight
- Howling Commandos of S.H.I.E.L.D.
- Angela: Queen of Hel
- Illuminati
- Red Wolf
- Weirdworld
- Hercules
- Starbrand & Nightmask
- All-New Hawkeye
- All-New Inhumans
- Howard The Duck
- Web Warriors
- Contest Of Champions
- Hyperion
- Guardians Of Infinity
- Vision
- Karnak

Heh, nice
The bolded are the ones I'm sad to lose.
Most of those weren't that great. Vision, Karnak Hawkeye and occasionally Howard were good. Obviously Tom King leaving means his vision series will be over-Hawkeye's latest run(s) were just messy.
Contest of Champions ending is a bit of a shock... great writer, well received, tie-in for a game. We're the sales just not there? Or maybe Ewing is just done with it.
In general I'm more surprised by what survived. Like, I love Patsy Walker, but my local store doesn't even bother putting them on the shelves anymore... they just get a few for subscribers.

So many ended around 5 or 6 issues that I'm wondering why Marvel just didn't make more of them into limited series from the start. Do limited series sell worse or something?
(I read Karnak, Vision, CoC, Howard, GoI, Angela, Weirdworld and Hercules btw)

Holy shit. Is this out of the Spidey and Pool team up series or Uncanny Avengers?

Team up(it was a filler issue by another team). They also addressed the Fox films:
