The Official Marvel Team Up Thread

Can't wait for Moon Knight next issue.

 

I'm anxious to see what other team-ups Kirkman has planned.

I'm hoping to see more characters that are not currently appearing in a regular title.

 

This is a great comic. I admit that I didn't like the art at first but I read issue #6 and liked it a lot so I bought it. I'm not sure if I'm going to pick up issues 1-5 though. Because I have misgivings about every other title Spider-Man appears in, I forgot just how much I missed the ol' webhead. And since it appears he'll be showing up rather frequently in this book I think I'll become a regular reader. I wonder if

Spoiler

this Titanus War thing will become a future epic Marvel crossover arc?

Anyway, I really like how well they introduce the different characters each issue and how they seamlessly mesh with the storyline. This could be a very disjointed and confusing book, but it's not. The writer does a good job in this sense.

 

The book needs more people to buy it. It currently has low numbers .

For years, we've been complaining that Marvel needs to put out a book like this, and now that they do, nobody buys it.

Spread the word..... BUY MTU NOW!!!!, True Believers.....

 

I buy it and everyone else should also. Nuff Said

 

It sounds cool. Anyone know when the first arc will be out in tpb? I plan to get onboard next issue with Moon Knight.

 

You can still pick up the first arc issues.

 

They're releasing them in arcs? That sucks, part of the appeal of the original MTU was that each issue had a complete story, but I guess I'm asking too much as many of Marvel recent "events" have so many plot holes they aren't complete stories anyway. I'm going to pick up what I can of the Moon Knight issues, hopefully I'll get them all.

 

Get the first arc as well.

It's some of the best material Marvel is producing.

Plus the characters are all portrayed correctly.


Spidey mentions his relief when Cap shows.

 

Spider-Man / Human Torch!

 

I've never been good at collecting arcs, mainly because I don't buy all the time, especially now that I'm minus a job. Most of my collection has at least one issue of the story missing, That's why I loved MTU and What if..? One issue, one story, no searching. And the longer the arc, the longer I have to search, it took me five years, FIVE YEARS, to get the last four issues of Maximum Carnage.

 

I haven't read any of that yet, though it looks kind of hokey.

 

I have every issue of Marvel Team-Up ever published.

All three volumes. And all the annuals.

up:

I know it sounds like bragging but I'm just curious to see who else can say that?

 

I'm just a few early issues shy of that. But if you count the Essential volume, then I'm technically there.

 

Damn TPBs.

The originals are way better. Classic ads included.

I gotta get me one of those sets of 250 army soldiers! up:

 

I agree. I prefer originals.

You can buy those soldiers at Wal-Mart. They're not as cheap as they were in the comics but they're still fun (and they melt real good too). My nephews have tons of them.

 

I got #1 and then since I didn't have enough money stopped.But I'm going to pick up the trade and the moon knight issue.

 

I have a feeling The Moon Knight ish is gonna be one of the top sellers of next month.

 

Hopefully that will get a new moon knight series going.

 

Amen, brother! I'm buying 3 copies myself. Say, I heard someone above mention the Moon Knight *issues* of MTU. I thought he was only in #6?

 

This book totally flew under my radar. Maybe I'll do something I've never done before....check out a comic because of an online recommendation. Even though I buy Invincible, Kirkman is just an ok writer IMO...the marvel books I've read from him (couple issues of Cap and MK Knights 2099) weren't good. Still, I'll probably give it a try.

 

Well, when I decided to collect ALL Spider-Man related material back in the early 1980's, Marvel Team-Up back issues became a "must have", and I bought everything since off the rack.

Once I get my hands on an Amazing Fantasy #15, I'll have every regular Spidey title ever printed.
