I remember lying alone on my bed as a child, and dreaming about how some day, they would make a Bloodshot movie, based on the Valiant Comics character Bloodshot
Its weird but I feel like the overwhelming majority of Marvel What Ifs was someone dying or not dying.
I am gonna watch that, been looking forward to it.
I've actually enjoyed a large part of Vin's movie output!
The latest Fantastic Four comic arc revisited the origin story of the four.
As others said I'm not a fan of it letting Reed get off easy, but I guess over time he's doing enough shit to make up for it so it's fine.
I have Regal Unlimited, so kind of full price but not. Still going to go watch it.
If you're referring to a comic server about this thread and comics in general and not something else unrelated to this thread that's private, I wouldn't mind an invite.
After that, I hope they reprint the Wolverine & The X-Men omni. I fucking loved that book.

Damn just checked gem mint do a not so recent read on it,it looks awesome I hope it gets a reprint also.
Uncanny X-Force also leads right into it, so it's relevant.

I doubt they will reprint that given how long it took to sell out but I hope to be wrong.
invite sent!
If anyone else needs an invite to our COMICS!!! |OT| Discord it's open for ResetEra members. Just ping me.
Damn that sucks. Sounds like a real interesting status quo and Supergirl's been interesting, if not messy.
Secret Warriors is great. I love black ops superheroics and superpowered superhero spies. Rosenberg had a new Secret Warriors that was gonna get up and running and that shit got caaaaaancellled.
I think I still enjoy Dixon's run over it. Dixon just set the ground work for everything, but also defined everything and also created something super unique and I love it. Tomasi's good shit, but it's very much a run with cut momentum because it's a Nightwing run, not a Dick Grayson run. Not like Seeley where he got to write Dick Grayson, so his run is Grayson>Nightwing. Like Dixon got to write Nightwing, and then backed it up with Robin: Year One. Both are great on their own, but compliment each other as well. Same with Seeley and Grayson and Nightwing.
Tomasi got cut short, basically, and that's the grave injustice of it all.
The problem with Seeley's run is that it feels like you have to have read Grayson in order to understand it. I mean, Grayson's amazing anyways, but it feels like a sequel book, not a stand alone. Perhaps I should go back and read it some time. The other problem with it is that it really feels like it doesn't want Dick to be Nightwing. The entire time it feels uncomfortable. Like Dick shouldn't be Nightwing. He should be something else, and that he's struggling to figure out a reason to be Nightwing. Both in the book, and on a meta level. Like Seeley is trying to figure out a reason to make Dick be Nightwing and not Grayson. Supposedly Seeley doesn't like Dick as Nightwing, but I've only heard that and haven't actually read/heard it from the man himself. As much as I enjoyed that run, it was the problem I had with it. Tomasi fully embraces Dick as Nightwing, as there is no other pretense. The arc with Two-Face is completely evident of that.
Seeley's run suffers from the same problem as Higgins' (the New 52), but much more subdued. Higgins' run had Dick spending the entire (or what felt like the entire) time talking about what it was like being Batman and now how it felt to be kicked out. I'm probably exaggerating, but it affected the character early on by providing him with this chip on his shoulder and an inferiority complex by saying "I shouldn't be Nightwing, I should be Batman still, why am I not good enough to be Batman anymore?" It was fucking annoying, but Seeley's is much more subdued because it's trying to prove that he's Nightwing now, and not Grayson, but he's completely independent of anyone else and his own thing.
The FF7remake demo came out but was only to play a little bit before going to work. Work is gonna feel loooooong.

Yea I wish we got more books or storylines like that. But Marvel would rather get rid of Shield over and over to do anything like that these days. Hell even Fury is gone and Fury jr isn't much of a replacement imo.

However fuck you Sejic for drawing Rat Queens. You left! You could've stayed but you left! #NeverForgiveNeverForget
Right now I think SHIELD being gone overall is a good thing. SHIELD felt like a scapegoat or felt over reliant or even felt like "hey wait shouldn't SHIELD be dealing with this?" All the time. I mean Secret Empire was kind of the last straw of "oh SHIELD is just the government okay."
So honestly right now I think the current status quo of them being gone is a good thing. Hopefully they get brought back, but in a nice reset.

Sejic is better for leaving that trainwreck. Also if I remember correctly he left as his life got turned upside down with an injury and his mother dying.
Let's get to Ivy saving Harley please Sejic. I'm in bits over here. That ending in Harleen gives me horrible anxiety when I think about it.
Some other C2E2 ASM stuff that wasn't posted that I'm shamelessly copying from a CBR post
#47 apparently has something major happen at the end that will have "everyone talking"
#850 (or #49) will be the big one, not #50
Apparently people shouldn't be asking who Kindred is, but what they want.
Sounds like Sins Rising will be a wild ride!

I'm not actually mad. I just miss his art on it. And also when the book was good.

I honestly think the new team is pretty good. Not great but good. Art is nice.
My problem with Rat Queens lately has been that it's missing the "heart" of it all. Rat Queens has always been unabashedly vulgar and give-zero-fucks in its presentation, but lately that's all it seems to care about. I don't really care about it emotionally anymore.
I have not. But I will counter and suggest
It's a fun little series you can read in one sitting.
Astro Cat gonna be there hitting F5 until it pops up.
Everyone wants that book. Why didn't ya'll buy it the first time it came out?
I demand a Wonder Woman x Lara slice-of-life ongoing.
You cant see, but I am lovingly stroking my big thick Secret Warriors omnibus right now.
I bailed shortly after Fowler started on the book. I didn't think her art was bad by any stretch, but it had a very generic fantasy look to it, and I don't think it really did RQ much justice. I never once went back so I do wonder how the book is now.
Trust me, im so happy with what Bendis has been doing with the spy agencies at DC. Just hope there will be much more to come.Bendis is here for you!
Sure, I get that. I would still like to see something take its place, even if its all done in the shadows. The stuff with Orchis would be the perfect time for someone to step up, but they probably want only Mutants to deal with them atm.
EDIT:
I hate you
