OFFICIAL COMIC BOOK THREAD

[Fozz]

I haven't really enjoyed the Marvel Now! titles that have released. Yet, I still buy the first couple issues to see if it will interest me. Unfortunately, they don't. I've been reading Waid's run on Daredevil and Ultimate Spider-Man vol. 3 was so good. Definitely one of my favorite titles from Marvel at the moment.

I cant believe u guys pulled me back into the comic book game. I was downloadin them but I now have too much respect for the comic shops

Same goes for me. Thread really got me visiting my local joint as well. Seriously, the last time I was buying single issues monthly was in 5th grade way back in '93. I did try to catch up via trades back in '05, but the past year or so this thread got me back in hte omnthly thing.

I am just a huge X-Comic fan. As for Marvel now they have a few titles I have been enjoying. I think Marvel Now kicks the New 52s *** in every way though.

All New X-Men for sure, do you want to buy paper or go digital?
I'm feeling generous so I can help you out if you want to go the digital route

I wanna go the paper route but I'll read the digital edition if I have to.
I love having a tangible copy to handle.

So you suggest All New X-Men? What about Uncanny X-Force?
Thanks.

Yeah I'd suggest that as well. Uncanny X-Men will be releasing next week as well. Those 3 will be easy to start from #1. Then there's also X-Men releasing in April

all this for $20. today was a good day.

in conclusion
new52>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Marvel now.

 

[GL Rayner]

Since I do not buy comics weekly anymore, I bought the Big Time Spiderman trade. I heard many good things about it. I plan on getting the Spider Island story next. Did anyone read the Avengers: Childrens Crusade? Interested in that too.

 

[Master Zik]

in conclusion
new52>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Marvel now.

Eh

Especially if you aint even trying out #1s for most of the Marvel NOW titles.

Regardless Marvel > DC x infinity.

 

[sunshineblotters]

No way. Marvel Now >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> New 52. Marvel is always a lot better than DC.

On another note am i the only one who feels weird picking up comics with a female lead if i dont like the version with the male? For instance i think Supergirl is raw but I hate superman. I feel weird asking for the supergirl paperback.

 

[tdogg2k]

My favorite X-men of all time is Psylocke, (though she's never got too much story)
So no not weird.

plus Superman........i've hated him since 1985.

 

[sunshineblotters]

^For Psylocke you have to read X-Force comics. She is a main character there

I never liked Superman. Not a day in my life have I thought of him as cool.

 

[mitchellicious]

Superman is trash. Only people that like him are people that had no siblings

 

[infam0usp]

^ yep. he's way too squeaky clean, just like Cap America

 

[sunshineblotters]

I just dont like his god complex. If he doesnt have a power convenient for a certain situation, he randomly realizes he has that exact power that he needs.

 

[tdogg2k]

yea he's been extremely over powered. doomsday was the only superman comic I liked. then immediately hated it when he came back.

may have to get into that x force if shes in it

 

[sunshineblotters]

Well they just started a new volume of Uncanny X-Force today. The last volume was very sick comic loved that one. It was a very popular series too so I aint the only one who thinks highly of them. Had The last one was 35 issues so something like 7 trade paperbacks.

As for the current volume, the events of AvX caused the X-Force to be split in two. Uncanny X-Force is one and Cable and the X-Force is another. Uncanny X-Force is the one you want for Psylocke.
Also this new volume continues from the last volume, it is a renumbering, not a reboot

 

[infam0usp]

1/23 pickups. for a belated bday gift, they gave me Foot Clan #2 for free & Killustrated #1 for $1

 

[sunshineblotters]

How is uncanny avengers 3? I got 1 and 2 but I wasnt feeling it. May be too early to make that conclusion though

 

[tdogg2k]

may need to find that xforce u were talking about
