OFFICIAL COMIC BOOK THREAD

ok guys. my wife got me an ipad air for my birthday.

I just got the Marvel Unlimited....what should I be reading?

I stopped altogether reading comics in 1995-ish...

Do you recommend a series? A run? I need to know. I spent last night just reading approximately 15 random comics just killing time.


Also, does DC have something of this nature...?

Official Press Release

Marvel Unveils Special Acetate Cover for ORIGIN II #1

Get ready for Marvel’s most ambitious cover treatment yet! In celebration of the landmark Origin II series, which unveils the mysterious mutant’s storied past, Marvel is giving Origin II #1 the red carpet treatment with a special acetate cover. Gorgeously rendered by superstar artist Adam Kubert, this unique cover features an ominous base layer underneath a second acetate layer of the clawed mutant entering the fray! Click here to see the cover in action on Marvel.com.

“With this year’s special December 24th on-sale date, we wanted to give retailers a cover that really popped off the shelves,” said Marvel’s SVP of Publishing Sales, David Gabriel. “With this acetate treatment and marquee position as one of the only two Marvel Comics on sale that week, we’re positive that no reader can miss—or resist – Origin II #1!”

In anticipation of this cover’s immense popularity, Marvel will have plenty of copies available for retailer orders to appease customer's demands! Select retailers will receive a cover preview sheet before this item’s FOC date, and attendees at Marvel’s New York City Comic-Con Retailer Breakfast presentation will receive a free cover preview sheet as well.

“The first acetate cover I ever saw was on Marvels and it blew my mind. We’re looking to do the same thing with this cover to Origin II,” said X-Men Senior Editor Nick Lowe. “Adam Kubert is a living comic book legend and this cover demonstrates that out of the gate. Top it off with Frank Martin’s delicious colors? The rendering, the concept and the surprise that readers will get when they lift the top layer of the cover drives home what a can’t-miss event Origin II is.”

Set a few years after the events of Origin, Origin II finds James Howlett running with the wolves…until something unexpected brings him back into the world of men! Follow the first “X-Man” as he finds his way back to civilization and falls afoul of someone Sinister, who’s just discovering mutantkind and the horrors he can visit on them. Written by comic superstar Kieron Gillen and drawn by industry legend Adam Kubert, Origin II #1 continues the proud tradition of revealing Wolverine’s shocking history in the highest quality possible!

ORIGIN II #1 (OCT130650)
Written by KIERON GILLEN
Art & Acetate Cover by ADAM KUBERT
FOC – 11/4/13, ON-SALE – 12/24/13

Currently on the 6th or 7th book of Y.  Comic books are so frustrating tho, gotta wait weeks just to read a few pages?  I'll wait until Saga is done to read it.
 
any marvel graphic novels you guys suggest?
I'm a big Hulk fan and would also like to read up on Venom or the ther symbiotes

I own World War Hulk, Planet Hulk, Hulk The End, and Civil War

is Avengers vs Xmen worth picking up?
