Beanpants posted:The current status of Wolverine is like that as well. In his own book he's been without his healing factor for months and months, done a heel turn into working for a villain, and cut ties to his former heroic life. There has been approximately zero hint of this in any of the other titles, and probably will remain that way until the Death of Wolverine mini hits.

I poo poo you not that has happened. Thrown into space on a trajectory so he wouldn't hit anything, got mad enough to turn the gently caress around. Hulk isn't strong, Hulk warps reality wielding the power of being pissed.

I kinda feel like Infinity shouldn't really have been marketed as a standalone event, because it absolutely was not. More accurately, they should have just added extra issues of Avengers and NA to the shipping schedule and had the whole thing numbered in a banner or something. Avengers and NA are vital to following Infinity and Infinity is vital to understanding the Avengers and NA issues. If other creators wanted to tie in on their books, then they would still be free to do so.

The Question IRL posted:No I get all that. I just remember how, around the time that Infinity came out, people were wondering what it would be like to try and follow the story in Infinity without reading Avengers or New Avengers. My friend did this and said he had no idea what was going on.

I find it weird that Marvel is putting out both .1 issues and Annuals despite them often fitting the same one-off story by a different writer niche.

Actually, I think my favorite part of that is that alternate/What If? Spider-Men always eat it, so they kept that theme going. I hope he shows up in the issue.

Kev Walker's art is usually on point, so I'm wondering if the inker didn't add some lines it really didn't need. Hawkeye, in particular, looks like either got really old or got a really nasty scar on his face which hasn't been shown elsewhere.

Has Sentry/the Void been brought up *at all* in this run? If not, I wouldn't put my money on him. Hickman's reveals are rarely out of nowhere.

Edge & Christian posted:Ms. Marvel is (apparently) a big seller digitally, but it's a solid mid-tier title in single printed issues as well. There was a quote in the chat thread saying its combined print and digital sales are higher than Uncanny X-Men's, which means even if Uncanny were selling exactly zero digital copies (obviously not the case), Ms. Marvel would be selling an additional 23,000 copies in digital.

Die Laughing posted:No, Loeb's arc was good. It laid all the groundwork, introducing a solid cast of characters, and felt like a good sci-fi take on the teen hero formula. It felt like a very deliberate pitch to carry the character through various media. Also, the Nova series has a good blend of space and Earthbound action. Everyone has their preferences, but I think they've done a commendable job. Can't wait until he fights

Yeah, that's pretty much it. If it was on a DC book, we would be calling it their dull house style (and DT would be saying it's great), but that's about the worst I can say. It's nowhere near horrible IMO.

Wizard was definitely reporting on AoA before it hit and I feel like everyone either read Wizard or knew someone who did if they were into comics. I'm also fairly sure the comics themselves started talking about it at least a month or so beforehand. Generation X #4 definitely has a bit with Jubilee reading the "next month" blurb (which would be fore Generation Next #1) and commenting on how it sounds bad.
