I’ve been ‘trying’ to finish Indestructible Hulk since December.

I read comics when I can, but collect more than I finish. This Hulk storyline sold me for two reasons, 1. Banner & Hulk at peace with each other, & 2. Hulk/Banner as a SHIELD operative was an intriguing idea.

I had just finished the Secret Avengers series (all volumes) and dig the tactical applications of Avengers on spec ops. Like the Ultimates or GI Avengers. There was a lineup where they even listed each roster member with their specific team specialty. Needless to say the series went south with writer changes. One volume had added Hulk & War Machine/Iron Patriot for heavy artillery/support. I felt Indestructible Hulk helps pick up the special missions potential there.

I just read the first volume of Monstress by Marjorie Liu. Fantastic story and incredibly beautiful art, I recommend it. In terms of setting and worldbuilding it gave me a lot of Conan/R.E.Howard and Lovecraft vibes.

I just finished reading the Marvel digital first Jessica Jones: Purple Daughter #2 on Comixology.
I am so enthusiastic about this title. If you have any interest at all in Jessica Jones and/or Luke Cage, go read this series by Kelly Thompson. Trade paperbacks are out of the first story arc. It's funny, it's dark, it's well written and the art by Mattia de Iulis is beautiful.

hasbroherofan · 03-04-2019, 12:23 AM

Avengers: No Road Home is really good.

Augustus_Cole · 03-04-2019, 12:38 PM

Things i've heard were good..and am looking to try..

Immortal Hulk (2018)
Fearscape(2018)
Superior SpiderMan(2019)
Bitter Root (Image)
Pearl (DC)
Die(Image)(Dec 2018)
Blackbird (Image)(2018)
The Batman who Laughs
Man and Superman #1(2019)

i just finished Infinity from 2013. Pretty good story.

Re-reading Thanos (2017) 1-18 because i never finished the last three issues.

i'm def interested in Jessica. I read the original Bendis run wayy back.

lordbest · 03-04-2019, 08:47 PM

It's every bit as good as the original Bendis run in my opinion, and much better art.

Augustus_Cole · 03-05-2019, 05:07 AM

just snagged these...all getting read between today and tomorrow..

*UPDATES

Guardians of the Galaxy - I'm into Cosmic books/stories now so it's great that i was able to jump on this at the beginning. Lots of heavy hitters in these pages. Not much actually happened in this issue to push the story along, it seems it was more to set up and get a feel for the players involved and\or their relationships. I'll be following this book for awhile.

X-Force - I just jumped in with this issue so I'm kinda clueless as to what was going on. i KNEW there was a younger Cable now (which i'm not sure if i'm a fan of as Cable was one of my fav characters) and while i don't know the story behind this younger version, they did touch on that topic a bit here in trying to figure him out. Ahab was in this and i haven't seen him in a long time.
As much as i LOVE the idea of X-Force, I'm not sure I'll keep reading this. I may try the next issue and see if it helps any.

lordbest · 03-09-2019, 07:18 PM

Kamala Khan/Ms Marvel is getting a relaunch this week with a new writer, Saladin Ahmed in Magnificent Ms Marvel #1, a good point to jump in if you have any interest in checking out one of Marvel big contemporary stars.

Thor · 03-12-2019, 02:30 AM

Jane Eyre

snake5289 · 03-15-2019, 06:16 PM

Used a $10 eBay coupon I got on the Spirits of Vengeance miniseries from last year(?) and it was a solid read. The art for Ghost Rider was a little wonky and didn't look anything like the cover though. And I probably would've called it the New Midnight Sons or something that's what the group felt like but it was still fun nonetheless.

Not yet, I'm a couple of months behind with my comics. But it's getting extremely good reviews as far as I can see.

Im reading old original Uncanny X Men

uchikuri · 04-16-2019, 12:08 AM

I am fond of reading gothic literature. Classics of the Gothic genre, source of inspiration of Dostoevsky, a fascinating example of minimalism – it's all about "Heart-accuser". The nameless hero absolutely unpredictably admits to the police that he killed his neighbor-an old man. It is my favorite novel by Edgar Allan Poe. I am not so perfect as this writer so I am buying a research paper or try to write it by myself.
