View Full Version : Would you buy a full size comic based on the Mini Marvels?

I really think these small strips that are found in the backs of the all ages books could be good as an ongoing full size comic. They are funny and the stories are cute. Also the art has a cool pop art type feeling to it. There was a hilarious Civil War spoof in the back of the power pack books. Would you buy this from Marvel? Do you have any opinions on the Marvel minis?

I kind of like them as short strips, but I wouldn't mind an eventual compilation of them in trade form.

I love the Marvel Minis. I hope that Marvel has the good sense to release a collection of these at some point.

they are cool and i definately appreciate them being in books i buy, but if i bought a book of JUST them? Id feel like id probably just wasted £2.

I don't know about an ongoing, but the occasional one-shot (per the FRANKLIN RICHARDS: SON OF A GENIUS books) might be nice.

The Mini Marvels. Not Marvel minis.

They've had two (technically three) oversized specials in the past. I'd love to see another one. Perhaps make them annual.

And it'd be nice if they included the ones that have been printed since the last one, maybe as a seperate special if needed.

I think that artist Chris Giarusso (http://www.chrisgcomics.com) has regular duties as a letterer or inker of some sort, so I don't think he'd be able to manage a monthly Mini Marvels schedule on top of it.

That said, I'd buy a series of periodic one-shots, like the Franklin Richards ones, and would love for them to collect the rest.

Sorry to be a killjoy but I voted no. I guess they're sort of cute in a non-consiquential way but honestly, I don't think they've even once made me snigger.

I agree a couple one-shots like FRANKLIN RICHARDS: SOAG would work. I think a monthly series would send people into a diabetic coma.

I think they work best in small little bursts.

If they did have a real comic, I'd buy it but I'd be perfectly happy if Marvel put them in the end of the issue where they have the Q&A page, Nick Fury Files, and "NEXT ISSUE" page.

If the artist drew an actual issue of a 616 title in marvel minis style would it receive a positive, or negative response?

No. I'm sick of 'em anyway. I'd rather see the pages taken up by artist renditions or character breakdowns, unfinished pencils, covers, the like. Not Mini Marvels or that stupid Nick Fury files page, or the Ask Marvel series.

Thunderbolts has a letter page and they're as vanilla as you can expect.

I wouldn't buy a regualr series, but a special or two, I'd pick up. I think they'd work best as a backup story in a regualr title or annual though.
