I was thinking of getting Wolverine: Weapon X too, but given that I don't really have an interest in Wolverine and I'm sure I'll see Garney's art somewhere else eventually, it doesn't seem worth it. I'll probably ditch Wolverine: First Class while I'm at it.

Darkhawk? PASS!

You wound me, my son.

What's wrong with Darkhawk? They're completely revamping his whole backstory, it seems.

It's wierd really. I like the book, but when I think of the books that I look forward to each month, this isn't really one. I read each issue, I enjoy them, then I forget about them. Come the next issue I typically don't remember the previous one and have to refresh myself with it. Just something about it doesn't stick with me. It did during the first arc. The second arc just bored me to tears. This one is somewhere in between. If I had all the money I needed to buy what comics I wanted this would definately be a keeper, but sadly, I spend around $40 more a month than I can really afford so I have to pick stuff to drop. I've dropped quite a bit but I'm still on the line of what I can afford. I find that everything else I read I enjoy more than this title save maybe The End League. Those are the 2 titles, along with Thunderbolts and Deadpool I'm on the fence about. I WANT to keep reading them, but financially I may have to drop them.

As far as what I consider Great!? Anything that sticks with me days after I read it (Nova, Iron Fist). Anything emotional. Anything that really makes me laugh. Anything completely differant (Echo, Umbrella Academy). Anything that happens that really defines the industry. For me, MI:13 is just barely missing that mark. I'm still tweeking my read-list though and I'm iffy on some Avenger/X-Men stuff, so we'll see if MI:13 sticks around on my list. I'm at least sticking with it through the Dracula storyline.



I think they'll do fine. As long as they keep in mind the body switching and not armor covering Chris thing... sadly, I'm guessing they'll overlook that part.

I'm still sad they haven't brought Death's Head II in though

CAPTAIN BRITAIN AND MI-13 isn't my favorite Marvel book out there, that usually is a tie between CAPTAIN AMERICA and NOVA, but it is definitely one of the ones I always look forward to among the lines of INCREDIBLE HERCULES or so.

(I refuse to call it "iHerc" unless I want to save space in a review. I'm not a 45 year old writer trying to be "trendy". )

Different strokes I guess, but I really like CB&MI13.

I'm not missing Death's Head II.

What's wrong with Darkhawk? They're completely revamping his whole backstory, it seems.

I just hope the revamp acknowledges the rest. Darkhawk's history is like Wolverine's was before ORIGINS; seems more complicated than it is. ORIGINS of course ruined it.
