shield is apparently about the secret history of the marvel universe with roles for dudes like imhotep, isaac newton and da vinci as well as obviously galactus and celestials and tony stark's and reed richards' fathers...imo it looks like a cross between planetary and LOEG set in the marvel universe. it comes out next month or may i think.
if someone can find 'the losers vol 5' for cheap, buy it and i'll cop it from you...it's going for over 100 some places lol
I'm really start to get into weeklys now. I just started get back into comics about 6 months ago and was reading alot of trades but now I find myself buying more and more weeklys!! I was just wondering if anyone knows if it's an ok time to jump into Uncanny X-men and New Avengers or are they in the middle of a story arc?
new avengers is ending within the next issue or two and will be back with a new #1 along with avengers, secret avengers and avengers academy
uncanny x-men is atrocious right now and plus it's about to enter into the 'second coming' crossover...you might just want to wait until that's done and for the inevitable 'relaunch' or 'new direction'...or buy something good like scalped or secret warriors lol
i think i'm going to scale back my weekly purchases, i find trades as a whole to be more satisfying reading.
^^ lol alright I'll stay away from x-men!! I was going to give it a chance because I used to really enjoy it but I'll hold off until the relaunch. I read a bunch of New Avengers trades building up to and including civil war ( the public library was buying them!!) and I liked them but again I'll wait till the current story arc is over.
I've read the first 2 volumes of Scalped...it's awesome. I have volume 3 and 4 to read still. I also got volume 1 of Secret Warriors. I'll try and get those read this weekned!!
What weeklys do you consistently buy? Right now I'm getting BN series, GL, GLC, Batman & Robin, and just started picking up Amazing Spidey.
ur weeklys sound good so far, get on warriors for sure and punmax.
^^ I've been debating whether or not to get into Pun Max. I loved the Ennis run. I noticed it's only at issue 4 or 5...is it worth getting them all or just jumping in? My local store has all older issues for 5 bucks...seemed pretty steep that's why I stayed away.
2 recommendations for warriors!! I'm now super pumped to hit up volume 1!!
wairrors is my favorite marvel comic runnin, and the kingpin arc that aaron just finished is dope..get the trade and jump on now.
I went to a BBQ tonight and this one dude I met was really hyping up Deadpool. I think I'll get come of the Cable Deadpool series. He said it was lots of fun. Anyone else have any Deadpool recommendations or ones to stay away from?
yes deadpool is a must. I found cable+deadpool very enjoyable. Id say start with that cause thats what I did and now im a deadpool stan probably for life
the first solo run...joe kelly, McGuinness..CnD for sure, and stay away from the current runs...all of em..eloels.Quote:

btw..i picked this up...out of the blue, and i dug it quite a bit.
is that brendan mccarthy art? is that sid vicious? wtf dusk tell me more lol
i thought you were a fan of the current deadpool series; i second the cable-deadpool recommendations-- they are repackaging the whole series into 3 giant trades, the first one came out last month and collects the first 18 issues:
Deadpool & Cable: Ultimate Collection Book 01 TPB
oh and i saw this and it made me laugh:

lmao^^
and i was a fan of the current DP...but as of right now its stale, so i dropped it. as for the hellblazer issue..its simon bisley on art and cover..and ya thats Sid..eloels thats y i bought it.
is bisley painting the interiors or penciling? how long has he been drawing hellblazer? i might have to cop that, i've been a bisley fan since lobo and the first batman/judge dredd crossover
So I took the Siege plunge today and bought issue 1,2 and 3. Can it be read on it's own or are there some tie-ins I should get?
