Thanks.

Still no GotG or Nova. That's two months now. Should I expect the worst?

LOL @ Thor returning to $3.99 with the arrival of Fraction. Good way to attract new readers to a "great jumping on point", Marvel!

It was announced a few weeks ago that they'd be going "on hiatus" for the duration of the Thanos Imperative event. Most people seem to be interpreting that as "canceled," but . . . I think it's worth keeping an eye on Black Panther and Doomwar, which are in more or less the same situation.

And I think my pull list just lightened by two books come May, which means I have $7 more per month to spend on MP3's.

One or two of those Avengers titles will be dropped once I start reading them, not sure which yet.
Finally dropped Web of Spider-Man and Marvelous Land of Oz, just can't afford them anymore.
ASM has all 3 issues at 3.99?!?! I guess they finally figured it out... we'll buy them anyways, but complain while doing it.

You nailed that point.

In terms of the solicits . . .

That CIVIL WAR: FF hardcover seems somewhat random. I sort of get packing in the SHE-HULK tie-in, but what does YA/RUNAWAYS have to do with anything FF-related?

It's great to see Jason Aaron's GHOST RIDER get the omnibus treatment. Now if only I hadn't bought the trades . . .

EYE OF THE CAMERA as a premiere HC? That's disappointing. Oversized would be a better format for Anacleto's art.

Some interesting trades of older material, this month. VISION/SCARLET WITCH, AVENGERS: UNDER SIEGE, TOMB OF DRACULA, THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER-HAM, and the ESSENTIAL CAPTAIN AMERICA series finally gets to Kirby's return.

This sounds interesting. Hopefully it will have lots of kung fu fighting! Everybody was kung fu fighting! Nuh nuh nuh nuh nunt nuh nuh! The Mandarin was fast as lightning! Nuh nuh nuh nuh nunt nuh nuh!

They all have extra material though. 2 page story from Stan/Marcos Martin
and another story from JM DEMATTEIS. Wacker said that the plan is to go back to 22 pages/$2.99 after the "Grim Hunt" storyline.

If Fraction ignores "Haunted" in any way, shape, or form, I will scream bloody murder.

Fraction originally said that Aja was drawing the Annual. Wonder what happened?

[MichaelChen]

Yeah, Aja would have been perfect for a mega-kung-fu villain like the Mandarin. Bummer he's gone. *shrug*

DEADPOOL: WADE WILSON'S WAR #1 (of 4)
Written by DUANE SWIERCZYNSKI
Pencils & Cover by JASON PEARSON
“THE MAN BEHIND THE MASK”
You’ve seen Deadpool in countless (and we mean countless) comics before — but never like this. Really. Want answers about Deadpool? Like why does he refuse to remove his weird red-and-black mask? Why does he only answer to the name “Deadpool?” Was he really part of a black bag special ops team that nobody has ever heard of? Were his teammates really given names like “Bulllseye,” “Silver Sable” and “Domino”? What did Wilson know, and when did he know it? A bloody massacre in Sinaloa, Mexico has left hundreds dead and disgraced soldier Wade Wilson has a LOT of explaining to do.

I HATE Deadpool but I am a big fan of Jason Pearson, Domino and Silver Sable.
Sold.
