The Official Pull List Discussion thread

[Xofenroht]

So...do you guys think Ghost Rider is any good? I'm thinking of adding that to my pull.

 

[GNR]

Jason Aaron is coming aboard in Feb,that would be a good time to jump on.

 

[PhotoJones]

I'll check out the first storyarc, at least. I'm not a big Johnny Blaze fan, and the angel stuff sounds pretty damn lame.

 

[Darthphere]

Jason Aaron has me picking up Ghost Rider and Wolverine.

 

[PhotoJones]

Oh, I'll definitely be picking his Wolverine run up. I can't pass on Aaron AND Garney.

 

[Darthphere]

Yeah, we're not stupid, like Corp.

 

[PhotoJones]

He's not stupid, either. He's picking up Aaron's Wolverine run.

 

[Darthphere]

Yeah, but he's being a ***** about it.

 

[PhotoJones]

Is he? He needs to shut the **** up then and revel in the awesomeness of Jason Aaron writing for Ron Garney.

 

[Darthphere]

Is he? He needs to shut the **** up then and revel in the awesomeness of Jason Aaron writing for Ron Garney.

Remember, he was *****ing about how many books Wolverine was in and such.

 

[PhotoJones]

Yeah, but he's going to be picking up 3 of them in a few months. Wolverine, Logan and Wolverine: First Class.

 

[Darthphere]

Corp is such a *****.

 

[PhotoJones]

We all are. Here I am acting like I won't add Aaron's GR to my pull and then track down the back issues because I'm a completist ****e.

 

[Darthphere]

Wikipedia is your friend.

 

[PhotoJones]

I know. Not having a complete run hurts my soul, though. Maybe I can force myself to break the cycle with this.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

you guys are actually going to collect his GR run. I don't like his take, they tried doing the whole working for heaven crap with spawn..didn't work.

 

[Darthphere]

you guys are actually going to collect his GR run. I don't like his take, they tried doing the whole working for heaven crap with spawn..didn't work.

Yes, because Spawn was good.

 

[PhotoJones]

How can you not like something that you haven't read yet?

 

[GNR]

Some Image stuff I will be adding:

'76 - i love the seventies
Dynamo 5 - got the first trade,shop is still checking to see if they can reorder the last 2 issues

I've been pondering Invincible for some time now,the HCs are a tad pricey north of the border,so still not sure.

I flipped through some NC trades today,and yes Photo,I can stomach art most people can't (Chaykin) but the art was pretty bad in most of these,so I think I'll be staying away

I flipped through Astounding Wolf Man as well in the cheap bins.Didn't know what to think of it,simple concept that I can't see myself wanting to read month in and out.

So as of Jan 2008....

All Star Superman
Brave and the Bold
Green Lantern
JSA

Black Summer
Superpowers
Next Issue Project
'76
Dynamo 5
Proof
The End League

Captain America
Daredevil
Fantastic Four
Immortal Iron Fist
Incredible Hercules
Iron Man
The Order
Punisher War Journal
Thor
Thunderbolts
Ultimates 3

Hesitating on The Twelve and Ultimate Human,my Marvel side of things is getting out of hand.Ultimates 3 is only there because my shop pulled #1 for me,plus it's only 5 issues long.

 

[PhotoJones]

It wasn't until the last issue of Astounding Wolf-Man where it really got good for me. Up until then, it was enjoyable, but not anything special.

 

[Anubis]

I still think it's just "o.k."

 

[PhotoJones]

I was on the fence about it until #4. That one made me a fan.

 

[Anubis]

Gotta tell ya, I kinda saw it coming.

 

[PhotoJones]

I didn't.

 

[Kraven]

Well, after today's revelation I'm pretty sure I'm dropping Amazing Spider-Man. In place of it, though, I'm going to start up on Daredevil and Captain America through the trades. I know DD's pretty good, I read through the first two arcs of Brubaker's run last year but eventually dropped it due to lack of funds. If CA's as good as DD is, then it looks like I've got some good reading ahead. I was thinking I might add Thor too, but I'm undecided there. Here's my new list:

Avengers: The Initiative
Captain America
Daredevil
Batman
Detective Comics
Thor (maybe)
