[drwho]

Please no one look I just wet my pants. With all the World War Hulk action, the return of a certain new warriors member ;), and all those new Marvel adventures books coming out. I'm in heaven.:D

[Taskmaster]

Please no one look I just wet my pants. With all the World War Hulk action, the return of a certain new warriors member ;), and all those new Marvel adventures books coming out. I'm in heaven.:D

I'm also psyched about the New Warriors member, but it just goes to show it's only a matter of time before everyone killed by Nitro is back

[Fatguy]

Thor!

<--excited

[Crimson]

A great month but I somehow appear on average, to be 6 or 7 books lighter! YAY! This past year has killed my wallet.

I was worried I wouldn't be able to add Thor to my pull list but I will now.

[Brian M.]

Just incase someone reads this before clicking the link the Might Avenger's solicit will spoil you to the issue before it.

[Gaastra]

"Then, costume division detective Danny Granville and the alien known as Korg race to figure out who killed one of Hulk's allies "

I wonder who will die?

Comments.

Is that scott lang on the mighty avengers cover?

A invaders trade! Great!

I want that deadpool/ great lakes avengers one-shot!

Thats major spoiler on the mighty avengers #5. They told of a death that hasn't happened yet!

[chickrockguitar]

I'm pissed that there's no Runaways.

[Sparda]

Due to Gargons being likeable as venom, I feel Marvel used the opportunity and chance of a symbiote invasion in Mighty Avengers and have one bond with Brock just in time for Sensational spider-man. Two venom's there :evilsmile

Can someone tell me why Thunderbolts is starting from issue 1? Is Paul Jenkins worthy of writing the team?:confused:

Oh ya almost forgot, Fantastic four taking on thier zombie counter parts....interesting and a way for marvel for definetly showing of a possible crossover between Ultimate and 616.

[MakeshiftHero]

the Deadpool/GLI book sounds great. Other than that I'm stoked about Thor finaly coming back.

[Frodo-X]

Curse you, Civil War! I was a pure X-fan, perfectly content to stay in my own little corner of the Marvel Universe, and then you came along and have managed to double my pull list!

x-factor 21
x-men 201
astonishing x-men 22 (already pre-ordered it months ago, though)

[CaptainCanada]

For me:

1. Captain America #28 - Looks like fun; Sin keeps reminding me of an evil Anne Shirley.

2. Mighty Avengers #5 - Certainly some crazy stuff happening there.

3. New Avengers: Illuminati #4 - I absolutely love that cover; the five ladies mirroring the members of the Illuminati on #1.

4. Omega Flight #4 - Looks good.

5. Astonishing X-Men #22 - Honestly, does anyone really care anymore?

6. Uncanny X-Men #488 - I imagine Charles is going to find Magneto.

7. New X-Men #40 - Things aren't looking good for Pixie.

8. Deadpool/GLI - Summer Fun Spectacular #1 - Awesome. I have everything Slott's written about the GLA/X/C/I.

ASTONISHING X-MEN #22
OMEGA FLIGHT #4 (of 5)
CABLE & DEADPOOL #43
THE CHAMPIONS #1


And of course, RUNAWAYS would make the list as well. But where is it? :(

Maybes:
WOLVERINE #55 - is this the conclusion, now? If so, I'll probably get it.

NEW X-MEN #40 - first part of the arc was flawless. If the book continues in that direction, this often terrible book will get a pick up.

UNCANNY X-MEN #488 - Uncanny X-Men has been boring, but a good start on a new arc could get me back into the series.

SHE-HULK #21 - great premise, but I've never been familiar with the character or the book. Hopefully something will click here.

AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE #4 - really disappointed with the first issue, but I love teen heroes! Hopefully I won't have to drop it before July comes.

[sschroeder]

No issue of newuniversal for the second month in a row, and no collection of the first six issues either. Plus Larocca is doing art for Uncanny X-Men instead.

So, what is going on with newuniversal?

-- Uncle Rog

[kloudsurfer]

Theres no Runaways!!!

I knew this would happen when whedon took over! I remember him saying in an interview somewhere that what happened to astonishing wouldnt happen to runaways!

Im so pissed.

And when is young avengers coming back?

[Porfat]

No issue of newuniversal for the second month in a row, and no collection of the first six issues either. Plus Larocca is doing art for Uncanny X-Men instead.

So, what is going on with newuniversal?

I was wondering the same thing. Thought it was an ongoing series. Issue 6 can't wrap all the plot elements introduced in 1-5.

[CaptainCanada]

And when is young avengers coming back?
If and when it does, the first you hear about it won't be in the solicits.

Jim Cheung has an issue of NA: Illuminati to go after this, which will be in September (assuming no delays). That's the earliest he can start working on it (assuming Heinberg has produced anything for him to draw by that point).

[The Iron Fist]

IMMORTAL IRON FIST #8
Written by ED BRUBAKER & MATT FRACTION
Pencils & Cover by DAVID AJA
Once a generation, the Seven Capital Cities of Heaven align on a plane far beyond the ken of mortal men. It is here that these cities send their Immortal Warriors to compete against one another in a combat tournament to end all tournaments…and it is here that Daniel Rand was spirited to in his darkest hour. Generations of mystical war traditions await their chance to prove they have the greatest kung fu…to THE IMMORTAL IRON FIST!
32 PGS./Rated T+ …$2.99

Martial arts tournaments are always awesome. I can't wait for the second arc starting with #8!

[Will.S]

Martial arts tournaments are always awesome. I can't wait for the second arc starting with #8!
If that issue doesn't star Shang Chi, it'll be a total missed opportunity.

[The Iron Fist]

If that issue doesn't star Shang Chi, it'll be a total missed opportunity.

That'd be cool man. Iron Fist vs. Shang-Chi would make for a sweet match up, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

[sschroeder]

I was wondering the same thing. Thought [newuniversal] was an ongoing series. Issue 6 can't wrap all the plot elements introduced in 1-5.

I agree. There's no way it can conclude much of anything. Especially since # 5 spent about half the issue leisurely introducing a new character. Which is fine, but it implies there was clearly no hurry to wrap up a story by the end of # 6.

[Chachi]

Light Month for me with no Moon Knight or Runaways (Damn Wheldon)

Amazing Spiderman #543
Sensational Spiderman #39 - Where's Media?
Ultimate Spiderman - Ultimate Spot !
Captain America #28
Omega Flight #4 (of 5) - Hoping for an ongoing!
World War Hulk # 2 (of5)

Thats all

[xarathos]

What's is really sad are the amount of Marvel comics I don't buy anymore. I used to buy tons of them!

Why have a Captain America series if he's dead? Just end it already.

Champions, Omega Flight, New Warriors (aren't they all dead), About four different Avengers title. I'm sure one of those is good, but I don't see a new Thunderbolts surprise in 'em. Oh, and Thunderbolts.

Spider-man: So messed up I don't even know who this guy is anymore. I don't care who dies<--- That's sad. Maybe Magic Spidey can magically bring her back to life?:evilsmile

Uncanny X-men ALways good.

World War Hulk: Give peace a chance.

Fantastic Four: Last issue was pretty good.

Halo? That's a video game right. I'm still waiting for the Donkey Kong: Mario's Last Hunt graphic Novel.

I'd say about six comics I'll be checking out of that list. Maybe that Captain America Stern/Byrne thing.

[DasPoppen]

Definitely getting:

WORLD WAR HULK #2 (of 5)
INCREDIBLE HULK #108

UNCANNY X-MEN #488
X-FACTOR #21
NEW X-MEN #40

NOVA #4
THE CHAMPIONS #1
SUPER-VILLAIN TEAM-UP/M.O.D.O.K.'S 11 #1 (OF 5)

[bmschweigert]

Hm. There is not a whole lot there that that I "can't wait" to be collected in tpb (mainly Nova and Iron Fist). While I am interested in WWH, I think I will wait and see how it goes before deciding whether to buy it or not. Though Hulk smashing the Iron/Marvel Earth is pretty appealing. This might be the month I use to buy the SMLMJ hardcover, which I have heard good things about. Or possibly Annihilation Vol. 2.

Galactic war epics and intersteller heroes vs. high-school superhero meladrama and street-level kung fu action. My reading lists are kinda odd.

[The Iron Fist]

The cover to #8 wasn't posted, but I managed to find it and it's awesome.
