It's pretty cool. Villains also got make overs for the New 52, good way to see which are good, which are samey, and which reminds us of the many missteps of the New 52.

Can we talk about Dark Horse and Image and others in this thread? What does everyone think of the new Hellboy storyline?

nickmitch · « **Reply #54 on:** September 05, 2013, 10:56:25 PM »

I just picked up the ~~Image Comics Man~~ Invincible omnibus from the Comixology sale this weekend. Haven't read it yet, but I've been wanting to for a while.

What is it about?

Basically, this kid is the son of a Superman-like figure and eventually gets powers of his own. He then goes crime-fighting with all the trails and tribulations of someone who's new at this but is stil Invincible.

SUPERMAN?!

nickmitch · « **Reply #58 on:** September 05, 2013, 11:34:26 PM »

Didn't say Superman. I said a Superman-like figure. You can think of as more like. . .The Sentry? But sane? I guess?

But it's like in Irredeemable where The Plutonian is a "Superman-like figure".

Wah · « **Reply #59 on:** September 05, 2013, 11:37:02 PM »

Sentry would when in a fight aganist superman!
Even if he did beat him he'd turn into the void and kill everything!
Marvel Vs DC... Marvel would kick ass!

You don't read comics do you. While the new 52 has brought power levels down to heroes being younger the Prime DCU with the big 7in their late 30s are usually uber powerful compared to any of the Marvel Heroes.

But yeah Invincble is awesome recently read through the first 105 issues so far. So basiclly ts about this kid named mark grayson who finds out his dad in Omniman the world's version of superman. So its like spider-man meets superman tone wise.

Infinty Part 2 is pretty aswesome. The AVengers and the galaxy council got bitch slapped by builder forces last issue, and they what can only be considered a follow victory. Mean while on Earth Thanos Forces have started the Invasion taking out Sword, and most of the Illumanti. Only ones standing so far are Iron Man/Mr.Fantastic in new york, The Ihumans who have been giving an Ulatiamuim, and The Black Panther who was like ya'll straight not coming into Wakanda.

Still Forever Evil and Villians month has been much cooler imo.

Yeah they did the whole Marvel VS DC thing already, that was pretty ugly. Marvel had some good books but ever since their movies took off the comics have taken a back seat to their media stuff. DC on the other hand is the total opposite, their movies are still for the most part **** or hit and miss but their comics have gotten so much better.

MetalMario2 · « **Reply #62 on:** September 29, 2013, 05:28:51 PM »

Marvel's spent the past several years turning all their heroes into unlikeable douchebags. Because "realistic, yo!"

nickmitch · « **Reply #63 on:** September 29, 2013, 07:49:24 PM »

Why can't Peter Parker be alive? Like, WTF?

MetalMario2 · « **Reply #64 on:** September 30, 2013, 02:49:54 PM »

Because Spider-Man isn't "relatable" unless his life is a living hell. Now that he's literally burning in hell, he's that much more "relatable".

Relatable, yo!

MetalMario2? your're new!

I'm glad DC villians month is over with. I burned out of it by week 2 and only picked up what I enjoyed. In recent new Batman #24 may be my favorite comic of the year thus far. From start to finish its amazing and does a good job at adapting Batman's first apperance.

In Marvel new Infinty is boring as hell. I won't call Hickman a hack but his writing its pretentious and is so obsessed with over narration, and to much into its big ideas. Plus the sroty telling is disjointed with the main tale being split between three books.

All new X-men was cool and its intresting that Wolverine doesn't have a healing factor in any of the books now.

Wah · « **Reply #67 on:** October 09, 2013, 10:51:29 PM »

It's made him pretty weak now that he has no healing factor... Hopefully he gets it back somehow, otherwise every bad guy going to wipe the floor with him!

nickmitch · « **Reply #68 on:** October 09, 2013, 11:09:37 PM »

I've been doing more backlogging. Just read through Spider-Man from the fallout of "3" and just got up to Spider Island. Great stuff. I love this Peter Parker: he's a genius scientist, he's on two teams, has real life issues (work/life/love balance). Too bad he has to die in the end.

Pretty sure the plan in to Kill Wolverine sometme next year. Plus Wolverine without his healing factor is pretty compelling becuase he can't just go Berserk or use his claws.

The first annoucment of NYCC is a a new weekly Batman Book called Batman Eternal.

The book will be about pushing Batman and his allies forward in the DCU. The showrunner is Scott Snyder and and were going to see Tim Seely, Ray Fwakes, James Tynion, and John Layman on the book with Jason Fabok being the main artist.

Also Detective Comics #27 will be a special issue with stories by Paul Dini, Brad Meltzer, Gregg Hurwitz and Peter Tomasi, and frank Miller.

Konami's X-Men games were fun, as were the Marvel vs Capcom fighting games.

Good thing DC is still focused on making amazing comics, while Marvel is turning their properties into movie blockbusters. Priorities, where art thou?

Seems like they're giving a few other characters the Hawkeye treatment, judging from a few of those covers.

shingi_70 · « **Reply #74 on:** October 14, 2013, 11:27:27 PM »
