Eivion 4,137 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 She won't stay dead, but I'm pretty sure as far Bendis is concerned he killed her. Link to post Share on other sites
Ace 5,077 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Nah. Emma just brain zapped her. Dazzler's going to be a regular in this book and the new Longshot book. Link to post Share on other sites
Eivion 4,137 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Read Nova: Nova Corps. This was on the short side, but a nice read. I'm liking the initial five recruits brought in by Worldmind, and the story with Worldmind himself kind of losing it has been pretty interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes since it looks like it will be a part of War of Kings. Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Hanger 991 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Up through issue 21 of DD thanks to Marvel Unlimited. (Glad I didn't jump on them the day they went to $1.99 on Comixology like I almost did). At this point I'll probably start catching up one issue a week, though that won't start til next Wed. due to a heavy buy on the 7th. (Avengers, AvAI, Invincible Universe and Robo all at once.)

Harbinger 50 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I just figured Dazzler was just poisoned. This will be like her 3 "death" this year. Anywho, loving Thor, tho I wish they finish the God Killer storyline. And Ultimate Spider-Man is great as well. Link to post Share on other sites
Eivion 4,137 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Pretty sure the God Killer story finishes up next issue. Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Hanger 991 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Characters I wish were appearing somewhere (and aren't, as far as I can tell from google): Quicksilver Finesse Quasar Any of the Starlin/Batista Spaceknights The Captain (with pajamas) Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Hanger 991 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 And apparently Pietro, at least, has turned up again. Avengers AI reads much better than the first issue. I will definitely be sticking with it, though the art still isn't to my taste. Link to post Share on other sites
Matt D 13,856 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I bet we see Finesse in the Gage Arena issue Link to post Share on other sites
Wahoos Leg 2 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Superior Foes of Spider-Man #1 was the best thing I've read in a while. Minor league super villains, presented in an Elmore Leonard-type narrative. Great stuff. Can't wait to get the second issue today. Have any other Marvel freaks out there seen this site putting the whole continuity in a reading order? This has got to be like the Mount Everest of comic-geek endeavors (I've got a Marvel Unlimited subscription and I'm about 1/3 into 1963 myself.) Link to post Share on other sites
The Unholy Dragon 778 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I bet we see Finesse in the Gage Arena issue Yup. He confirmed it in his CBR interview. Link to post Share on other sites
Ellsworth Toohey 18 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 One thing I don't like about Bendis is that he uses a lot of "body language" in his stories, and I'm absolutely terrible at interpreting it. In Guardians of the Galaxy, are we supposed to think that the sex between Gamora and Tony was mindblowing and now Tony is upset by Gamora's coldness, or was the sex supposed to be cold and mechanical and now Tony is upset about that?

Big Fresh 4,553 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I find it hard to believe TONY STARK would get upset over either. He's the 2nd biggest poon hound in comics. Slightly behind Matt Murdock. And I only put Murdock ahead because his sexin' seems to drive so many women to insanity or death. Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 6,112 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I read it as he had no idea what he was in for and she broke his soul. Link to post Share on other sites
Ace 5,077 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Also: Bendis's Guardians is awful. Link to post Share on other sites
J.H. 1,845 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 So what it goes Matt Murdock, Tony Stark and Dick Grayson? Or we talking just Marvel? I mean Wolverine pretty much has slept with just about everyone Seriously, Dick always ends up with someone. He even got raped by the female version of Tarantula!

odessasteps 14,338 Posted August 9, 2013 Author Share Posted August 9, 2013 Are we presuming Bruce never actually slept with: vicki vale, silver st cloud, etc? He certainly slept with Talia and Selina in continuity. Also, Hal Jordan, also went through his share of girlfriends, in addition to Carol Ferris. Link to post Share on other sites
Trebor 216 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Gotta add Clint Barton to the list. He's banged a ton of ladies. Link to post Share on other sites

Craig H 14,661 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Also: Bendis is awful. I don't chime in on comics much because I'm so sporadic when it comes to reading them, but this is exactly how I read your post. Link to post Share on other sites
Brian Fowler 15,473 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Bendis is wildly inconsistent. Alias, Daredevil, Ultimate Spider-man, Ultimate Comics Spider-Man... All legitimately great work. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Ace 5,077 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Indeed. His Guardians run is crap, though. He has no feel for the characters at all. Link to post Share on other sites
Matt D 13,856 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 The only thing I really like about Bendis' Guardians run is Star Lord's Dad. Link to post Share on other sites
