As long as its not a $3.99 book, I will give it a try. I'm enjoying the other Spiderman "spinoff" books Venom and Scarlet Spider.

Love the quote coming from ASM # 698.

Wow, I'm still in shock that this is actually happening. It just seems out of nowhere, really, for Morbius to get an ongong. Sure, maybe a few scenes here and there in someone else's book, but not something just for him.
But Morbius is just one of those characters I think is so uniquely Marvel that I'm excited he's getting his chance to shine. Well, for all of you complaining that Marvel's lost its edge, here it is!

Well, I would have checked out a Morbius title regardless (love those hold Marvel Monster characters), but Joe Keatinge is definitely a clincher: his take on "Glory" is quite good, and this coming from someone who has no love for the Extreme-verse. I think they are releasing a trade of his first arc shortly, at $9.99 to boot. Check it out.

sweet...what's the odds of this thing making it a whole year?
why does marvel keep relaunching the same books over and over that are destined to fail?

Because there is a chance they could catch lightning in a bottle. Why should every book be Avengers, X-Men, or Spider-Man. Honestly people should be glad Marvel is trying to shake things up instead of delivering the same-old.

I know right!! It's like Marvel can't go six months without launching a new Morbius series. Morbius, Morbius, Morbius, every year! Originally Posted by drinkblatzbeer

I know this isn't being promoted as a "horror" comic per se, but I'm excited when either of the Big Two branch out from the straight-up superhero stuff. I hope this works out.

I'll check it out. Elson seems really fired up about it. If it mines some of the more obscure bronze age stuff it could be great.

It's a buy for me if Sanjani is his sidekick.

EDIT: Hopefully this doesn't get canceled before it's released (Thanos...)Last edited by SJNeal; 08-26-2012 at 03:43 PM.
