Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

The "Agent Carter" showrunners are the new Captain Marvel writers with Kris Anka on art.

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

Yeah, according to Wikipedia he hasn't had an ongoing solo series since 1996. It amazes me it's taken this long, he seems to be a pretty important character in the MU and popular.

Have Fazekas and Butters written comics before?

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

Sales for the various Strange minis and spinoff have been weak. Though Vaughn's Dr. Strange was excellent (and it's doubtful Aaron could outdo that). It's the same reason why Dr. Fate hasn't had an ongoing until now barring the Fate ongoings which all got cancelled.

Adam Kubert will be the alternating artist on "All New, All Different Avengers".

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

Two-thirds of this rumor has been confirmed (the creative team). Given the new title of the book, I'm going to guess that the rest of the rumor (Hulk's ID) is true as well.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

Pak is back!

Why did he leave anyways?

I just hope he doesn't leave AC for this.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

I like the main series but the tie-ins are basically cute nostalgia gimmicks that aren't really worth it. I did like A-Force, Thors, E for Extinction, ASM... but I always have a problem with alternate universe stories that don't star "my" characters.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

I personally think the main series is kind of lame (I'm not a big fan of the Doom is God premise) but some of the tie ins are ok. The ones I'm currently planning to read all of are (along with the main mini):

Planet Hulk
MODOK - Assasain
Where Monsters Dwell
Attilan Rising
Infinity Gauntlet
Armor Wars
Marvel Zombies
Ghost Racers
Thors

I've tried a bunch that I didn't like, basically all the ones that aren't on my list like A-Force, Secret wars 2099, etc.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

I'm enjoying the main series, but I'm not getting any of the crossovers. Hell, the only reason I'm buying the main series is because it's the culmination of a story I've been following for three years. These days I tend to avoid "Events" altogether as they are usually disappointing, but this one was rather unavoidable.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

It's a shame Hickman didn't write any of the tie-ins. He was certainly producing enough volume leading up to this!

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

I read the first issue of 1602: Witch Hunter Angela and was rather indifferent to it. The concept has potential (Angela is a mutant hunter), but I found the first issue plodding and occasionally confusing.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

Ghost Racers, Weirdworld, Squadron Sinister, and Planet Hulk are my favorites so far.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

That is a good description of most of Bennett's work so far imo.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

Lemire and Ramos on "Extraordinary X-Men" post-Secret War.

Also --- SPACEKNIGHTS!!

I hope they worked out a deal with Hasbro to include ROM.

And Vision.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

Is this the first time they've ever used Extraordinary for an X-Men title. It seems like an obvious title, but I honestly don't remember ever seeing it before.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

I don't like Lemire, but I'm too much of an X-Men fan not to at least try Extraordinary X-Men.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

With Remender off of Captain America and Uncanny Avengers and Bendis off of UXM and AXM, it exposes a lack of a coherent long term game plan since Marvel NOW turned out to be an absolute dead-end and the top writers have all jumped ship. Especially hilarious is that Remender had just relaunched two new volumes for Cap and UA. Seems like they are flailing even more than DC right now and their reaction seems to be copying DC, which probably isn't a good thing.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

I have to admit that I'm getting a "New 52" vibe from the various titles they're launching after Secret Wars.

 

Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

Regarding the Amadeus Cho being a Hulk thing, Cho actually hulked out once before, during one of the recent crossovers with the Hulk family, where pretty much everybody became Hulks. Cho's form had a big brain, sort of like the Leader, but even larger. I think he was red-skinned too. However, a 'new' Hulk form can happen too. Both Betty and Rick had other forms briefly before their more recent (now cured) ones, and the original is an ever better example-Bruce has been green, grey, combinations of the two, and some of the smarter Hulks such as the Merged/Professor and Doc Green have more human faces. Plus in most versions of the Grey Hulk, he's shown to be shorter and more neanderhalish than the regular savage Hulk.
