I didn't notice the background was directly from the game, that is so fucking cool. Why doesn't Aja draw more stuff?While we're talking Hawkeye, I can't be the only one who missed this:

finished Bendis' Avengers vol 1 hc, the new series with Romita etc etc etc. Mixed feelings overall, but it almost feels like a jumbled mess that amounts to a waste of time. No character growth whatsoever, bendis-talk everywhere, even Ultron, a mildly entertaining time travel story.
Verdict: Regret.

Is Saga a good comic to read?
Prolly gonna drop Wolverine and the X-men since it's becoming sorta "meh" after the last two issues, American Vampire is going on hiatus and Uncanny X-force has sadly ended and I need replacements on my buy list.

Yeah. That's why i try to give my codes away when I buy comics. I know that feel! But then again, I can always wait till I have money and cop the Trade Paperbacks.

Xtreme X-Men's gay Wolverine and gay Herc have my interest up.
I'm pretty sure i'm going to start cutting back on comics, it's getting out of hand....yet.....must read!

I know this is a bit late, but I would recommend Irredeemable and Incorruptible. They are two separate, but interlinked series that are each about 35 issues long. I thought they were well done and they've already ended so they should be easy to track down in trades.
yes.

Doesn't herc swing both ways? I think north star seemed a bit embarrassed at his wake
Incorruptible is pretty meh. It started out alright, but kept getting worse with each arc.
Irredemable is entertaing the whole way through.

This Herc licked cupcake frosting off of Howlett's face and said something like "You were always sweet."
If you like worldbuilding, it's amazing. Plotwise so far, meh. Crazy pretty though. I still get get it in hopes that something will gel.

Yeah, it was less than subtly implied that he had hooked up with 616 Herc at some point. The original mythological character was definitely bisexual (or omnisexual), so it's not completely out of place, but I don't think it's been alluded to before or since.

He licked frosting off his face. It's a bit more direct than a Northstar dive. Haha.

That's an alternate-reality Hercules in X-Treme X-Men, not the 616 version.
VVV Well, never mind, then!

Brahs, not enough talk about Francavilla's stellar Black Beetle #0 (reprinting his run in Dark Horse Presents to lead into #1)
It's better than most everything we're hyping/complaining about/buying.
If you love comics, correct this mistake. You owe it to yourself.
EDIT:
FUUUUUUUU
His poster for The Invisible Man (a poster for the Mondo showing) is godlike.
GOOD GOD! The other stuff they had commissioned is crazy cool!

Came out on the 19th. Not on ComiXology yet (?) so I had to buy a paper copy.
My local store had it, but http://store.dreamlandcomics.com/black-beetle-night-shift-0-comic-p128229.aspx has it online. I'm sure other online vendors, or maybe try your FLCS?

Ah that's right DH likes to use their own app. =(
It does say a lot that the big talking point we got out of ASM #700 isn't "Oh man Spider-Man is so awesome and holy shit what's coming next I can't wait", but is "So, uh, was that rape?". That's pretty much all I had to say on the matter.
Mara was a super confusing mess and it's a huge bummer.

Confusing? Seemed like pretty straight forward set up to me.

Enjoyed everything in ASM 700 except for the very end. I've enjoyed enough of Slott's run to stick with it for an arc or two, just to see where it goes.

Huh. Apparently Spider-Island was meant to push back the big mind-swap story because they felt it was too early in Slott's run. According to the CBR interview.

I've bought and liked every issue. This new development is just (ball) gravy on top of already good potatoes.
I stan for Dazzler. Always have.

You just have to be creative with your buying habits. I got a friend who is collecting the Marvel NOW X-Men stuff, and I buy the Avengers stuff. We trade the codes or let each other read whatever else we buy (He buys more stuff). I still don't read everything but I'm sure I'm enjoying the most out of what I buy.
haha that should be bara enough for Ookami.
Fuck Greg Land for fucking up a Pixie/Dazzler hi-5!

So superior spider man is basically going to be the post new 52 green lantern book. It's already been done before.
Yes. Answer is always yes.

Can you explain this a bit more? I'm not extremely well versed in what's going on in GL these days past the first arc.
I think he means the fact that post-N52 "Green Lantern" was Sinestro instead of Hal Jordan. And as of recently Green Lantern is Simon Baz. Hal's been around but he hasn't been the focus of the book at all.
Based on past interviews, it's pretty apparent the first year of N52 Green Lantern was just Johns reworking stories he had already plotted out for the book. The Indigo Tribe arc was originally supposed to run last fall after War of the Green Lanterns ended, but obviously that was delayed. It's my guess that what made up the first 6-7 issues was pulled from the Sinestro Secret Origins mini that was supposed to be out either late last year or early this year (with Ivan Reis art) that was supposedly going to cover his early days as a GL.
Yeah but we can all agree that Green Lantern sucks, so it doesn't matter really.

Green Lantern has been at worst consistent. So no were not all going to agree it sucks. In fact lately with the new lantern it's been really good.
