Who was the guy in the end of 20? and does anyone else think Marvel is overdoing it with the Gay characters?

It was titanus wasn't it

Well, seeing as nobody commented on issues 21, 22 & 23 (which just came out), maybe them poor sales figures ring true.

Anyhoo, I'm not too crazy about the current storyline... it seems a bit forced and the art is so-so.

I don't know if anything will ever come out of this "Freesom Ring" character... he would definitely need a better supporting cast. But I doubt I'd buy his book.

It's funny how there's an "evil" Tony Stark in this storyline ... when you think of the fishy shenanigans that the real Tony Stark might be up to...

Anyway, two more issues til the end.

The art is a lot worse than so-so. Kuhn's part of # 23 was horrid and I'm saddened that a really good book like this one is going to go out with such a crappy artist.

I was cracking up though at Aunt May yelling at Wolverine for drinking out of the milk container, heh.

I dropped MTU as of this issue. I needed to drop stuff because of budgetary constraints, and I figured MTU was good because 1) it's being canceled anyway and 2) it's been pretty crappy lately.

Yeah, Tony's brother Toby is a real jerk.

 

[Themanofbat]

Yeah, Tony's brother Toby is a real jerk.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Aww, I :heart: you too, TMOB.

Pick up the last 2 issues for a complete set.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Nah, I'm not a completist.

 

[Themanofbat]

Nah, I'm not a completist.

You should be.... it's fun.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

It's also expensive, which doesn't work for me right now.

I thought the last issue was pretty good. That Freedom Ring *****e got an upgrade thanks to the Dues Ex Machina posing as a Skrull. And it's always cool when somebody almost kills Wolverine.

 

[Themanofbat]

Where da heck is clonesy???

 

[iloveclones]

Sorry, man. It seemed like most people weren't diggin' the latest issues, so I haven't been chiming in much. I continue to enjoy, though.....

 

[Themanofbat]

Well, issue #185 just came out, and I'm a tad surprised at what happened, especially since Joey Q went on and one about Marvel Homosexual heroes in a recent interview.

The weakest arc of the series, and with dismal sales, the book as a whole just seems "rushed"... the art is choppy, and even the writing seems somewhat haf-assed, as if even Kirkman has given up on the book and is just half-heartedly finishing his tale.



I hope the last issue's big finale against Titanius is a bit worthwhile.
