    Any of you guys reading The Avengers or New Avengers? It's going to be bittersweet when Bendis departs from writing the book.

    Also, I wish Invincible released a lot sooner than once-a-month. =(

    Sadly anything from Marvel except the new Daredevil & the Wolverine and the X Men is buns to me.
    DC got da upperhand currently. So many good titles out of the new 52.
    Batman, Animal Man, Swamp Thing, Frankenstein agent of S.h.a.d.e., I Vampire, Flash, Batwing, Demon Knights, Resurrection Man all great books.[​IMG]
    Also dont nobody sleep on the comics from Image. A lot of good new titles. Thief of thieves, Fatale, Morning Glories, Chew............

    Yeah, I think he announced his departure from The Avengers title a couple months ago. But I believe he still be doing his other titles such as the Ultimate Universe. 
    Brondiesel, there are so many new titles from DC that I need to read. Just don't have enough time. I do like Brubaker's Fatale. After the first issue, I was hooked.

    Invincible. Not new, but one of the best Image titles.

    I remember despite him being great it was a bit overkill the amount of titles Bendis is working on but now I'm loathing him leaving the Avengers titles. I'm up on those two right now, Osborn[​IMG]

    I'm enjoying Slott's run on Spider-Man.

    Yes, I am loving Dan Slott's run on Amazing Spider-Man. I can't wait when the Sinister Six storyline begins.

    Unfortunately, not. I really wanted that variant cover too. I just didn't have the time to drive out there, get tickets, and wait in line to get the comic.

    I dropped by a local comic shop that had a mini-sale going on. Finally was able to get the three variant covers of McFarlane's run on Spider-Man along with the pull out cover of Jim Lee's X-Men. These were the two comics that got me hooked to comic books. Both were in really good condition.

    Besides these from Image Im reading Xenoholics, Whispers, Haunt, Blue Estate, Severed (its finished, written by Scott Snyder).
    Out of all image titles I can recommend to anyone Fatale, Thief of thieves, Severed, Morning Glories, Chew.
    Also Walking Dead, and from Top Cow (which is part of image) Witchblade, Artifacts.
    Those books are really good.

    Can someone school me on what's happening in the Marvel Universe that is building up to this monumental image?

    That image is part of the Fear Itself storyline...Nothing too much to read into the image, honestly. If anything, the outcome of that storyline is that Wolverine and Cyclops have split. Wolverine, Iceman, Beast, Cannonball, Kitty Pryde and others are now running the new School of Mutants. So think of Cyclops taking the stance of Magneto and Wolverine with the stance of Xavier.

    Oh yeah, I read every comic I buy. I'm not into grading each issue and seeing the value of it. I enjoy the writing and the artwork.

    exactly.

    And I read all my comic books.  I have like 1000 marvel comics i've collected since '91 and I have enjoyed reading every one of them.

    I really like that wolverine collection posted above...makes me want to start collecting the oldies again.

    prices for comics are so high right now...it doesn't make it worth it in my eyes.

    True...$3.99 an issue is starting to get out of hand. Especially with the amount of titles I pull. [​IMG]
