Issue after issue the internet keeps telling me I should hate this mini series - and issue after issue I'm still loving every second of it. Im not even a fan of Bendis Avengers. Its basically the...
The only Spawn books ive liked are the main title itself and the Sam and Twitch book. After being a fan of the book for a long time in the 90s, now, in hindsight, I would say overall Spawn the comic...
I think following a reading list that packed is just making it way too complicated for yourself. Just stick with the main Spawn series - the Origins trades are your best bet. All of those secondary...
Are the Spawn New Beginning trades already abandoned? Im only seeing 2 - the last one in released in the Spring of 2012. I had to stop buying singles and was going to trade wait the new direction -...
Hell, even Valiant's fight scenes are unlike anything else on the stands.
The Bloodshot Harada brawl was incredible - stuff ive never seen or heard of before in comics. Keep pushing them boundaries...
The Marvel GI Joe run is an all time classic. Larry Hama wrote basically every issue of the 150+. Its tough to say how a complete newcomer would take them - being they started in the 80s. I grew up...
Really cool stuff. Thanks for posting this info, Bugsy.
Having a nerdout over the EW v XO pic - and its pretty exciting Bloodshot is getting a new writer. The character needs a slighty different...
Fraction wrote the best run the character has ever seen - and all with the same artist, which helps dramatically.
My LCS didnt have any of the Dave Johnson covers in.
A true tragedy. :(
Don't forget the 1st Valiant trades of each series are $10 - won't be too expensive to give them a shot.
I would recommend Harbinger and/or X-O Manowar - Archer & Armstrong is pretty different...
Quite possibly the best single issue of the entire New 52 lineup. WW #19 just perfectly demonstrated why this book is so great.
I agree with this.
I liked the character enough to stick with it, hoping the book got better - but the execution was lacking in 1-9. This issue was a great improvement. There's some nice character...
XO #12. Story: good. Art: horrible.
Still blaming the colorist on this board? There are panels where Nord couldnt even be bothered to finish drawing people's feet. The inking is the problem. Its...
Im so glad you approve of what comics I buy, lol.
Oh so only 2 thirds of their entire lineup? Hippocratic much? What are you going to say when Valiant has their company wide Unity event?
Ill have to give Special Missions a look - I also didnt check out Lapham's work on that title - seems worth a peek too. Thanks.
Perhaps the word "ignorant" better suits you?
BTW, your entire complaint list doesn't apply to the titles I listed - funny that.
Top TEN monthlies? I buy 10 books a month tops and I think thats a bit too much, heh.
The blind Marvel hate on this end of the forum is quite hilarious and sad in the same breath. There is some...
I mean when Apocalypse backhanded the crap outta Thor - that was straight outta New Gods or something.
"Coward! You strike with great force when you opponent's back is to you! How will you fare...
My oh my has this book come around.
This issue was 100% badass and, quite frankly, it's already a modern classic. A Kirby-esc throwdown with Young Thor v Apocalypse (cannot get much cooler,...
Cobra Files delivered. With the big sweeping changes to the Joe universe, I was a bit worried Cobra's tone would be altered. Worries averted - Cobra Files was back to form in a hurry - as long as...
Another outstanding issue. It might be crazy to say but the new Valiant is dangerously close to usurping the old in certain areas - the quality level is just very high. This new Harbinger is right...
Kitson seems a mighty nice fit for the book. Looks excellent. Harbinger Wars restored my faith in the Bloodshot book and explained alot of the more outlandish stuff I initially had issue with. Pretty...
Stick with Costa's "The Cobra Files" and avoid everything else. It sounds like its going to keep the same tone. Costa said its still a super secret black ops team. Fingers crossed.
All this blame on the colorist - the guy has drawn 5 issues so far and those 5 are by far the weakest of the lot. The action scenes in 11 are flat out bad. He gets lazy with detail especially...
Valiant across the board has been consistent high quality from day one - but Harbinger is the true gem of their lineup - and issue 10 is probably the best Valiant issue of the entire relaunch so far....
