Superman #11 - I feel like this one was alright? It was nice seeing Superman deal with shit - I liked his polite request for the Thanagarians to stand down. Plot is still absolutely boring but I love Bendis Superman as a character.
Batman #71 - I get why people are tired of this plot but I like Batman thinking he's a nut and acting like it. There's no way for this to be resolved in a satisfactory manner, and the dialogue is a bit phoned in. But it's fun.
War of the Realms #4 - Good stuff - we're finally cooking. Odin's fancy armor, he and Freya's final stand with the Black Bifrost, the whole "gathering of the troops" scene and Thor suiting up again... that's the big stuff I was waiting for. Can't wait to see it all wrap up!
Guardians of the Galaxy #5 - Wow, definitely did not see that coming. Having Thanos back so fast takes some of the wind out of his death, but I assume there's a twist there. Really glad that Hela plot thread that Aaron established is getting some good payoff!
Amazing Spider-Man #21 - Boy this one was a downer. Really liked the exploration of Lizard's inner turmoil... and the general continuity thread. Wishing I picked up the X.1 issues, though.
Immortal Hulk #17 - I don't even know what to say about this one that isn't reductive. It's great, loved Joe, and that one page was the best kind of crazy.

The .1 issues for ASM are good. I would just wait for the trade at this point though.
That variant is hot
This is the best period of Spider books in a long ass time, it's great
I really enjoy Action Comics, but I don't think I've enjoyed much of Bendis' Superman at all. I stopped buying it after the last issue. Glass to hear I made the right choice.
Catching up on Ms. Marvel by finishing up G Willow's run starting with #34.
I'm sorry
She borrows her mass from
Let me get this right
Because I feel like this isn't a big enough deal here
TIME?!

Hulk, Daredevil, Life Story, and Guardians all kicked serious amounts of ass today. GREAT comic day, sometimes they aren't a mistake, you know?
Yea normally I would say the same about not taking it so literally. Just feels like something is different with this, but maybe its because of all the theories around it.
No, it differently is pretty different from any relaunch before. Like I keep saying, it really feels like an imprint is being launched and Sandfox is right: That might be exactly what it is.
SDCC will be very interesting.
Oh yea, that is a good idea. It would give the X books more free reign, without having to deal with whatever else is happening. I just feel like they loose alot by going this direction. Like the interactions with other heroes and their respective villains. Not that that happens all the time. I just worry itll make the X-Men universe or whatever feel too small.
If anyone can do it right though I guess Hickman is the best option.
See, I wish Marvel could get their animation division in order like DC has. Life Story feels like it'd be perfect for like a 2-part animated film series.

He pretty much only writes these days. He drew interiors on I hate fairyland which was awesome but his own thing.
He's French it's ok
I would be fine with Young depending on what he's doing.
I've made my opinion on Ramos known.
Gleason and Tini Howard seem likely to me as writers as well, just based on them signing exclusives.
Okay, but when I see you mentioning hot up-and-coming artist Francois Hentai, we're gonna revisit this.
Yep.
Speaking of Deadpool, do we what's happening with him after Young leaves?
According to Young Deadpool ended because he pitched a big project to Marvel with one of his favorite artists and he made the call to drop Deadpool because it was taking up too much of his time.
After today, I'm convinced that Rosenberg is intentionally writing a bad book. There's no way this can be a sincere effort.
He's the Brooklyn Brawler of X-men writers.
It's not out yet. Comes out in September or thereabouts. Complete Collections are bulkier trade collections than the normal volumes. The first one came out in September 2018. These kinda take Marvel a while to get out.
Marvel with that Galaxy Brain plan. Put out an X-Men that's so trash (but somehow still sells) that even more people buy Hickman's book.
Just grabbed this! Super glad they're doing these. It's like three trades worth of issues if anyone is curious.
They generally do these releases after the omnibus is out. They basically chop up the omnibus into smaller releases for people who find the omnibus volumes too unweildy.
