THUNDERBOLTS #1 - I'll check it out against my better judgement. I'll probably just keep it on the back-burner so I'm not fully spoiled by the ending of War Zone, a book I'm loving.


Thanks as always TMoB.

Well, I bought and enjoyed the 0 and 1st issue of Phantom Stranger but I guess I either missed out on or my shop just didn't get issue 2. I'll have to ask about that, but if they don't get it I might just drop the book. It's on a testing basis anyway and I find I'm not THAT worried about missing an issue. I'll at least skim issue 3 though. Stormwatch is also in the testing phase, so it'll be skimmed.

As for the other two, excited for All New X-Men. Avengers will be on a testing phase since I like Remender and Opena together and a lot of the cast. If it's not blown me away by the end of the first arc I might just drop it. We'll see.

Don't yet...it ties into 700

 

[Themanofbat]

15.1 is the post-ASM #700 issue and sort of bridges the gap between it and SSP #1...

Solid week. It'll be really interesting to see what ASM 699 gives after that huge bombshell at the end of 698.

 

[CantThinkOfAName]

I'll definitely read #15.1, but after that, I'm not so sure. I don't care about Spidey teaming up with other characters, especially since most of the time it's just a way to promote the other character's book. The main draw for me was Zeb Wells, and now that he's off, I'm not as interested.

 

[Maximus One]

No Green Lantern book next week???

IRON MAN #3

And this is it, assuming ARCHER & ARMSTRONG doesn't come out this week and INVINCIBLE is on time.

The rate at which IRON MAN is being published lately is amazing; then again, I imagine it doesn't take long for Greg Land to Photoshop, copy and paste his "art" from the associated press, film screen shots, porn, or wrestling magazines. While Rob Liefield gets a lot of deserved heat, at least his crappy art is his own.

StuMPtOWn is out...

 

[Themanofbat]

I really wanna try the new ThunderBolts, but I know it's one of those books I'll read the first couple of issues... dig it... and then buy the next 52 issues and never read them...

 

[Spider-Jay420]

Huh? Why would you buy comics and not read them?

 

[Themanofbat]

Because I'm 45 years old and sometimes "real life" gets in the way of an old habit... and I've often found myself in recent years buying the books with the intent on reading them when I get home, but then things get in the way, so then you have a small pile that starts to get bigger, and bigger, and bigger, and bigger, and bigger, all the while, you keep saying to yourself... "Man, I really need to read those"... but you simply don't.

There are a few core books that I DO read when I buy them, but as far as the rest goes... let's just say that Marvel NOW has become an excellent "jumping off" point for me and I can really trim the fat over what I buy... my pull list in January will hopefully be about HALF of what I get now...

Dude, I'm the same way. I've got a stack of New Mutant books that are unread, same with issues of Thunderbolts/Dark Avengers and others. I make it a point to read the main titles I love like ASM or Rucka's Punisher, DD or Uncanny X-Force but sometimes I get wrapped up in work stuff and school stuff and they collect dust.
