I take it those were in tie-ins. I only read the main series.
Holy shit @ the bolded. What the fuck, Tony?

But it's such an awesome angle! It's so good, the Xmen needed to fight each other and now the Xmen are fighting The Avengers.
I don't think Marvel has supervillians any more. You just have the heroes clobbering each other and wrecking cities on their own.

You gotta use the same Marvel-philter when reading as when something happens on Manhattan, and all the other heroes (which are almost wholly based there) are conveniently elsewhere.

And who the hell rebuilds Manhattan after all those horrible events? Damage Control works miracles!

Usually its because the time scales are so warped. Obviously with something that comes out every two weeks it is hard to fathom how the entire story arc could take place in like 2 days or so.
That is one advantage DC has in inhabiting a bunch of cities that do not exist.

That just makes it nuttier, not more sensible.
It only takes 2 days for A.I.M to sink California. Just saying.

And not having their whole universe take place on the island of Manhattan.
I only read the Wiki summary and that was enough to turn me off the whole concept. I refuse to see it as a live-action adaptation. It's a fast way to ruin the entire franchise.

The only thing good about Civil War was the poignancy of Peter Parker revealing his identity in issue 2.

Secret Invasion was somehow worse.
Honestly it seems most of the villains in MCU are either redeemed, small-time, locked up or dead.
Hulk didn't take too kindly to that uppercut from Thor.

Spider-Man is by far the best thing about civil war. And there aren't that many good things about it.
I really dig the Iron Spider armor. Tate's has a classy-as-hell bust of it I'll perhaps buy one day when I sit on mountains of gold bars.
Iron spider was awesome, I also really liked tony and peter's weird father son relationship they had going. Would love them to return to that, especially now that peter is actually using science and shit again.
Why, you have a problem with that? lol.

Captain America's shield absorbs everything. Doesn't deflect bullets, it stops them. Can absorb a blow from Thor's hammer.
How does it bounce off walls then?

I've always thought that the material had different properties at its edge or the edge was made of another metal.

Can't imagine, it already felt pretty tired and boring in the first 35 minutes or so.
Anyways, heading out to see it for the second time in LieMAX 3D tomorrow; should help clarify my feelings about this Joss Whedon extravaganza.

Hated it so much you need to see it again?
I finally was able to watch the Avengers on Saturday, and then I went and saw it again on Sunday. Mark Ruffalo definitely stole the show.
If they do end up making a new Hulk film (which I'm praying they do), I hope it will draw heavily upon Ultimate Hulk vs. Wolverine (sans Wolverine of course).

How could he possibly still be angry?

So I bought a big book of Thor stories. I guess the fact I finally stopped going "hey I should read a comic sometime" and actually went out and bought one says a lot about this film's effect on me.
It has Ballad of Beta Ray Bill, so I'm pretty pumped to finally read that.

That's his secret, AVclub. He's always angry.
This movie has had me reading a ton of stuff I kept telling myself I'd get to. Read Infinity Gauntlet over the weekend. Reading Extremis as we speak.
Either he's crushing her spine, or she wants the rest of those bitches to leave so she can get some of that good Hulk lovin'.
Only the best for the Hulk.

Is there actually a readable (practically speaking) version of this? I had thought the Infinity Gauntlet story-line was one of Marvel's massive crossover events.

Not going to lie, I've purchased more comics (Marvel mostly) than I ever have in my life in the past few weeks and Avengers was definitely the catalyst.
It's on Comixology app, reading it right now and it's pretty good.
Yes, it's a six-issue series; not one of those huge jumbled up crossover event things.
