Has Owlman already showed up again on Earth Prime? Or the Comedian or Mrs Jupiter?

You mean Nite Owl? No, none of the Watchmen characters have (or at least, none have been outright confirmed on panel).

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Just one thing.

OK, now I know that I made a grand mistake not yet reading this masterwork.

 

[Sandfox]

So a lot of the Marvel books that we thought were going to be cancelled soon are going to be continuing for a while. I wonder how long the leash for these books is because people assuming that books aren't going to last long is something that Marvel has an issue with as well.

Spoiler

Owlman is dead for as far as we know, but it was Johns who did it so we'll see. He could b coming back in the next few months.

It's a good book.

Has Gwenpool ever teamed up with someone outside of her own book and has she used her 4th wall superpowers there?

 

[Messi]

that is cute as shit and I love it

Gwenpool in a nutshell combined with well earned feels at times.

She appeared in Champions and Hawkeye off the top of my head. Nobody can write her like Hastings though.

The art is nice at least.

 

[Sandfox]

The art is nice at least.

The writing for the book is just as strong imo. She has the same problem as Deadpool where people assume they're just random humor and write them off when both are actually tragic characters.

Aye, thank you. I think thats for the better.

I don't really like Deadpool, so yeah. I will keep that mind.

Hastings is the only one who gets her.

I absolutely loved this scene

I love that she continues to have animal backpacks too

 

[Owzers]

That scene made for a good avatar. I should still be buying gwenpool, I blame marvel for making me drop floppies.

 

[Brian Fellows]

I wish Gurihiru were doing the new Runaways book.

 

[Haloid1177]

Didn’t know Joe and Ed were done with the Spidey/Deadpool book. Just finished up the last issue. What a bummer, easily the best Marvel book I’ve read since Nova.

Odd that you have only read one book since Nova.

Joe Kelly was hyping up the next creative team on twitter so we'll see what comes of that.

Lucky for you, Gwenpool is also available digitally.

 

[Superflat]

Always cool to see Gwenpool awareness going on in here :O

Biased because it's my entry point into comics, but issues 16 and 17 were so. damn. good.

I'm looking at picking up the (New 52) Justice League. Good choice? Bad?

 

[Malyse]

She was in Rocket and Groot and terrible.
She was in Champions are SUPER TERRIBLE.

No, Hawkeye shows up in her book.

The thing people seem to miss is that Gwen is still 100% a normal person playing GTA. She's not particularly crazy or anything, she just absolutely doesn't care about the consequences of her actions. This is just a kick ass video game and she's an avatar of chaos. People think she's girl Deadpool and that's absolutely what she isn't. She doesn't even *like* Deadpool because she thinks he's LOL MEMES.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

She was a psychotic comic nerd in the Champions issue.

The first 12 issues are kinda meh, but from then on it's consistently good to great.

I actually do consider her to be "girl Deadpool" for the reason I posted a few posts back.

 

[Malyse]

And that's not Gwen. She knows and understands the tropes.

Also, fuck you guys. Now I'm reading all of Gwenpool again and I had other things I wanted to do today.

Girl Deadpool a la LOL MEMES.

Miles has been paired up with both Gwenpool and Spider Gwen.

 

[Malyse]

Miles has been paired up with both Gwenpool and Spider Gwen.

But he only kissed up one of them.

Oh yeah, Gwen is in Secret Empire BNW too and written decently.

Also, if Wasp is gone, put Whitley on Champions.

 

[Einchy]

Miles has been paired up with both Gwenpool and Spider Gwen.

He has a type.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

He has a type.

Huh, I was expecting him to be paired up with Kamala.

 

[Sandfox]

Bendis is supposed to be introducing an actual love interest for Miles this summer.

 

[Poodlestrike]

He has a type.

And that type... is Gwen Stacey.

Wow that's gotta be weird for Peter.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

Bendis is supposed to be introducing an actual love interest for Miles this summer.

Spoiler

Hopefully, this one won't betray him like Kate Bishop from the Ultimate universe.

 

[Phamit]

Jesus, that Clone Conspiracy Book has a terrible format. There is a reading order, but the book isn't in the reading order, so you have to jump trough the book to find the right chapter

It also ruined Ben Reilly and Octavius' character development. Superior Octopus, really?

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Nick Fury vs Shield is a interesting comic book.

 

[Wanderer5]

Heh, on my weekend trip with family, and I noticed earlier that my younger cousins were starting to watch Batman the Animated Series on amazon prime. Ended up quite smiling at that.

 

[Haloid1177]

Odd that you have only read one book since Nova.

Messi pls Marvel comics are really not my thing usually. Only current books I’m keeping up with Marvel wise are Black Panther, Spidey/Deadpool, and Nova. Always preferred DC which I thought you’d understand!

Now to be fair Punisher MAX went down as one of my fave comics ever. But yeah.

Finished catching up with King’s Batman too which is still great. Hyped for War of Jokes and Riddles. Should be good. Catching up on Transformers Lost Light next.

 

[Freezasaurus]

I'm two issues behind on Seven to Eternity. Is it worth catching up on?

Plowing through Black Science this weekend. Tried to read it a couple times before but it didn't click for some reason. The early issues can be confusing when trying to read it monthly. Up to #24 now and really enjoying the book.

 

[Ross61]

I want an Omac series from Young Animal like the one at the beginning of New 52 with Dido and Giffen.

It would also get cancelled like the one at the beginning of New 52. :3

 

[Owzers]

The only book I'm spending $4 on digitally is deadly class right now and I don't feel like that's a good value. Cmx subscription discount things already.

No Young Animal titles been cancelled yet and they're selling like crap :3. Don't think the monthly sales expectations are very high for YA, just the trade sales.

Don't you have MU?

You know what. Gwenpool would make a fucking amazing video game.

Gwenpool should be a pillar of Marvel.

I can support this.

Ha! Pillar support pun.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Gwenpool doesn't do anything for me outside of Gurihiru's art. She's basically Deadpool but the comic felt like it wanted to be like Squirrel Girl tonally, and it made for an awkward read for me. I thought the emotional beats kind of fell on their face because of that. Some of the quips and dialogue ("Come at me RO-BRO") were kinda... not good either. I think I'd be better off just reading Deadpool again if I wanted a character like that.

 

[Owzers]

Don't you have MU?

Not at the moment, I might sub the next annual sale but I bought mockingbird and only care about gwenpool, might wait for a digital sale...issues I haven't read of gwenpool aren't up on MU yet anyways. Last time I had MU for a month I read five issues of civil war 2 and barely survived.

 

[MHWilliams]

It's worth noting that part of Gwenpool's issues stem from the fact that she doesn't really see non-major denizens of the Marvel Universe as people. They play tthe rest up as laughs, but in-universe, that's supposed to be the "Oh" of her character.

Bendis is supposed to be introducing an actual love interest for Miles this summer.

Just have him date Bombshell or whatever. She only exists in his comic anyways.

The Spider-Women TP collects 7 issues and is $30

Marvel... why...

 

[VanWinkle]

Finally getting back to the Spider-Man by Roger Stern Omnibus. Man, Stern is the best voice of Spidey ever, IMO.
