Is the Yost/Kyle X-23 stuff young or older Laura? I can't really tell by the samples.

If you're going to invest in an amazing Hickman ride, do the GOAT:

Brubaker Books of Doom
Lee/Jenkins Inhumans
Annhilation (vol 1-3)

Then Hickman's Magnum Opus:
Dark Reign: Fantastic Four
Fantastic Four vol 1-6
F4 vol 1-4



why you do this

Thanks dude, I had already grabbed all those but Annihilation, so I'll check that one out

I love the idea of Sam Wilson as Cap, but if looks like all his trades have Luke warm reviews, what's up with that?

Speaking of Cap, what's the word on the Hail Hydra run?

I keep telling myself stop I already burned my gift card but nope, I keep coming back to this thread to read about more comics I shouldn't buy. So many things I still want but don't want to spend any more money ;_;.

I lied to myself and say this is a short-term investment for a lot to keep me occupied for a while. It's really not a lie, I've genuinely never seen a sale like this, and I'm still not convinced it isnt some sort of bizarre pricing error.

Okay so, when I go to my digital orders page on Amazon - all my comics are shown. When I purchased them and everything.

But they are also listed under my "open orders" page too. Open is usually meant for items that haven't finished the transaction.

Should I be concerned?

Yeah that's like the only reason I'm spending way more than I ever would. The insanity of the sale is impossible to pass up and from what I've read here this is a helluva alot cheaper than buying these comics in any other sale. Apparently the discounts here are unprecedented. Also I'm trying to limit myself by avoiding runs still in progress since there's so many complete runs to catch up with.

Considering Comixology usually offers sales at 3.99 to 5.99 most in here are 1.80-3.00. Absolutely unheard of. Picking up Miracleman for 10 bucks is akin to a literal miracle

Ok I may have to get that for rarity alone that and most stuff I'll try and read on MU too but can't resist owning comics.
 
tell me what youre in the mood for

character
setting
style

Pretty much up for anything good. Was mostly looking at the epic collections so I have a lot to dig through, 1602 because of neil gaiman, Vision vol 1+2, House of M, Messiah Complex, Vol 1 of Vader but not unwilling to get more if they're good. I'm also torn since pretty much all of this is on the subscription services so no real point to go super super crazy on spending.

To cancel an order do I have to use customer service? I couldn't find a way to cancel an order natively, impulse bought all the Brubaker Captain America but then realized it's on Marvel Unlimited.

If there is a DC Sale similar to this I am absolutely fucked. Marvel Unlimited saved me a lot of money here but I still forked out a decent chunk.

Well, I went through this thread and spent $130. The last one didn't go through so my bank must have started thinking its fraud. lol

Well, count me another victim of this sale in homage to the glorious Steam Sales of old. I've not even been a comics fan but went for broke (in a sense).

X-Men: Days of Future Past
X-Men: God Loves, Man Kills
X-Men: Dark Phoenix Saga (honorary mention since I'd gotten in the one-day $3 for select comics sale a week or so ago, quite enjoyed it)
Spider-Gwen Vols. 0-2, Spider-Women
Spider-Man: Blue
Spider-Man: Birth of Venom
Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane (darned cute mangaesque art style)


I am intrigued by Magneto from Ian McKellan's depiction of him in the films so wondering whether to get Testament and part of the Magneto solo series or not. Otherwise, any other good recs for a comic novice partial to the X-Men, Spider-Man, Avengers from MCU but who has not seen Guardians of the Galaxy?

Also, any thoughts on Age of Apocalypse? I'm afraid of going in the rabbit hole in continuity and trying to keep track of it all but it seems like an intriguing AU and perhaps worth the jump at these prices... If it helps, I'm partial to action but I have a weakness for character development and relations being explored. I guess you could say action without heart behind it is basically boring to me.

I thought I was done, but I went in and picked up the Marvel Knights Inhumans series.

Ok, done this time. Really. Probably not.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
I merged my Comixology account that I've had for a few years with my Amazon account and now my whole library is gone. WTF.

EDIT: I tried something in the options menu called Restore Purchases and it fixed things. I'm not happy, though. I don't know what they were thinking.

EDIT: Some of my comics are still missing, including the 700 or so that I got from their Marvel free #1s promotion.

EDIT: Ok, I tried putting some of the issues I'm supposed to own in my shopping cart. (not sure why) They went in there but then when I went into the shopping cart it said something like "Removing Issues You Already Own From Shopping Cart" and now they show up as downloadable. But only the ones I've put in the cart.

I feel like I'm missing out for not buying Alias, but the art style really isn't clicking with me

Kinda reminds of a more fucked up Scanner Darkly

I just merged accounts a couple days ago. I didn't lose anything, but nothing I bought before the merge on Amazon has synced yet. Contacted support and they said it often takes 72 hours to sync up though I'm about to hit that mark tomorrow.

Thank you! For real, if you haven't read Miracleman and don't pick it up in this sale you're a damn fool. I've barely seen it in people's pull lists in this thread.

I've been going back and forth on grabbing it. There was really nothing about it that interested, aside from the high reviews.

I'm thinking I'll take the gamble and go for it, especially for the discount.

I implore everyone to buy Squirrel Girl Beats Up The Marvel Universe. One of the best Marvel stories ever-the feels hit you out of nowhere.

stuck my tongue deep inside Atlus' cookies
I completely forgot I had a $50 Amazon gift card from months ago - redeemed it this morning and bought "a couple things." Sat down tonight to burn through the rest of it buying comics and... in the morning I'd actually burned through all $50, without realizing it.

In fact, my morning purchases totaled exactly $50 on the nose, through sheer coincidence.

So I'm taking that as a sign to stop, as much as I'm tempted to save big on big-ticket stuff like the long Ultimate Spidey run, Hickman FF, Cosmic Marvel, Brubaker Cap, X-Force and some of the other stuff I've seen recommended here.

By my count I picked up 88 books :O

Final-final haul, which I'm writing here so as to ensure I buy nothing else:

Alias 1-4 + Jessica Jones 1
Astonishing X-Men (Whedon) 1-4
Black Panther (Coates) 1-3
Daredevil: Born Again
Deadpool: The Adamantium Collection
The Death of Captain Marvel
Doctor Strange: The Oath
Doctor Strange and Doctor Doom: Triumph and Torment
Doctor Strange (2015) 1-4
Hawkeye 1-4
Infinity Gauntlet
Infinity War
Thanos Quest
Marvel 1602
Miracle Man 1-3
Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur 1-2
Ms Marvel 1-6
Punisher Max 1-4
Spider-Gwen 0-2
Spider-Man: Kraven's Last Hunt
Spider-Man: Blue
Spider-Man Birth of Venom
Spider-Man and the Human Torch
Spider-Man: Nothing Can Stop the Juggernaut
Squirrel Girl 1-5
Thunderbolts (Ellis) 1-2
Wolverine: Old Man Logan
Vision 1-2
X-Men God Loves, Man Kills
X-Men Days of Future Past
X-Men The Dark Phoenix Saga
Warlock: The Complete Collection
Wolverine (Millar)
Wolverine: Weapon X Vol 1-3
World War Hulk
Planet Hulk
Hulk: The End

Star Wars 1-4
Vader 1-4 + Vader Down
Lando
Han Solo

Total Damage: $207.4. Minus the $50 gift card. It totals up to about 592 individual issues. 35 cents per issue :O

Yikes! I should not have clicked on this thread. I ended up with:

Thanos Quest
Death of Captain Marvel
Dr. Strange/Dr. Doom
Books of Doom
Planet Hulk
Spider-Man Noir
Spider-Man Noir: Eyes Without a Face
Warlock by Jim Starlin
Vision Vol. 1-2
X-Men Second Genesis
Thunderbolts by Warren Ellis Vol. 1-2
Miracleman Vol. 1-3
Secret Wars (the Hickman one)
Superior Spider-Man Vol. 1-6

...and pretty much all of the Jason Aaron Thor stuff. There's plenty of other books that look interesting but I'm stopping there. Plenty to keep me busy for a while.

Borrowed my wife's iPad to read some of the stuff I bought earlier. Kind of hooked on reading digitally now. Must resist urge to buy more!

Is it possible to buy/read these comics without a kindle or similar device?

I usually just read off my PC.

You'll just need a "device" to send the purchases to so download the kindle reader app to your phone and log into your amazon account there to register that device. After that, delete the app. All your purchases will show up on your comixology account.

You can also just download the "Kindle for PC" app and not deal with comixology at all.

Doh..oh well.

Went ahead and grabbed Punisher Max 2-5 (already have the paperback for 1) & Infinity Gauntlet.

Now to see how what else I should pick up.

Edit: hmm...Wow..A little overwhelmed here. Anything I should pick up that's similar in tone/style to Punisher Max?
 
This is bullshit, I bought the Steranko Nick Fury book and the Amazon listing clearly says it's 248 pages, but then when you go to read it it's only 20!
