I jumped into comics with A/NA and then caught up on F4 and FF and it was like reading a prequel that came out after the original. There's a ton of little cool callbacks but nothing too critical. When I first read it, sure Reed could have a machine to look at other universes, but seeing what it was originally for and why he said he shouldn't use it was pretty cool. Also, are there any cool Madame Masque stories outside of Hawkguy? I'd like to check some out on unlimited if possible. limp dick calvin fucked around with this message at 04:44 on Aug 18, 2015 |

She had a good issue in Fraction's Iron Man. "I hope you die. I hope we both die."

CBR has an interview with Hickman. Spoilers for SW #5. He also says that his last Marvel work "for awhile" will be writing the dialog for the last issues of SHIELD which will come out after SW. [Laughs]

Really interesting to read about the relation between Doom and Molecule Man. Doom isn't an omnipotent as I thought he was. Then again, if he truly was then there's nothing the survivors could have done. The note on how close both Siege and Thors tie to the main series also sounds awesome as those books have been fun as hell. Can't wait to see how it plays out.

Yeah that would be awesome, because right now having to exit at the end of each issue rather that continue to the next comic in the story is annoying as gently caress. Currently I just go to the Hickman page from browse but sometimes there's comics missing from there for some inexplicable reason. I got up to FF 15 last night and this is some cool poo poo going on. I'm very much liking this story.

It sorts them by date natively.

Just finished reading the Fantastic Four Hickman run, but what happened to Hitler Reed the one with the long beard? Did I miss what happened to him, was he the that got absorbed with the Supreme Consciousness? Also, kind of wondering if some of the FF stuff will tie in somehow.

I'm pretty sure Hitler Reed is killed by the Mad Celestials during the whole invasion of the council bit. It's his Infinity Gauntlet that Doom uses to make his universe.

Since there are other people reading Hickman's fantastic four stuff I'm going to spoil this. FF #16 Kid Franklin telling Mister Franklin he wants his own Galactus. Doom is the best dad.

What's the deal with the 'Main' Thor not being worthy to wield an actual hammer, when everyone else has their own Mjolnir? I noticed he's just wielding his axe. Is Jason Aaron ever going to let us know just what Fury said to him that seemingly made ALL 'Main' Thor's unworthy of Mjolnir, even their counterparts on Battleworld? And why was he deemed worthy again right before he died before SW started?

House of M is cool but like everything I suppose your mileage will depend on how well you liked the HoM universe. Unlike the event, the book is focusing more on the ruling family rather than the human rebellion, thought that stuff is in there.

It was a love story, but drat it was pretty dark.

My guess is that Tony becomes the new sherriff. Bullseye as a Wild West gunslinger villain is inspired.
