I'm reading in single issues, so the latter ordering is better for me, thanks. I also didn't know about the Dark Reign stuff, so I'll grab that now.

We should migrate GRcade to Flarum. :toot:

That's a very good lead. Bear, do you use these boxes yourself and if you have would it be possible for you to send a pic with comics in?

Thinking of cancelling my Marvel Unlimited subscription and trying out Comixology Unlimited instead, get a bit of variety away from Marvel for a while.

Still wish DC had some kind of service like that though, would love to dig into a few Superman and Justice League titles.

Mine are all in a cardboard box somewhere, never unboxed them after moving because of the shelf space they'd require :dread:

Do many people here read DC stuff? I started reading DC stuff when New 52 came out but I wanted to know how much of that is retained with the new 'Rebirth' line.....sounds like a lot of it has been wiped?

As far as I'm aware nothing got erased but some characters got brought back.

Yeah Rebirth seems to have only really effected Superman in a drastic fashion.

I'll get back to DC again soon, I did like what I read.

I've continued my read through of Spider-Man from the start of Brand New Day. Read the arc with the Mayan God and the snow today, I love Bachelo's artwork :wub:

Vol 1 of Jupiter's Legacy for £1.49. It's a steal at that price.

Mark Millar isn't getting a penny from me.

:lol: Every time I remember Mark Millar is a person who exists, I feel compelled to google and make sure that Nemesis film isn't happening.

The collections of Jonathan Hickman's entire Avengers and New Avengers runs are on sale on Comixology for £2.49 each which is not bad when some of them are usually £14. Both series are combined into the one collection at the start of the Time Runs Out arc.

Getting really bored of Marvel replacing their legacy heroes like this. The post-Secret Wars relaunch is the least interested in Marvel I've ever been, and I think it's easily the worst it's been in terms of quality for a long time.

Civil War 2 spoilers: call me cynical, but it's interesting this is happening after Bendis killed off War Machine. :roll:

I've not read anything post-Secret Wars yet. So it sucks to hear that it's not been especially good so far.

Ah well, plenty of older stuff to go through.

Only read the main Civil War II #0 - #2 so far, idea behind its quite cool but so far can't help but always think back to Civil War I. Not 100% invested in Captain Marvel either.

Amadeus Cho is Hulk
Steve has only become Cap again
Miles Morales is basically proper Spidey just now
Thor is a gooseberry fool female support character
Iron Man is a 15 year old girl

:slol: That is mental. Only good one is Miles. Hulk as a youngster with a mohawk :|

Amazing Spider-Man and Black Panther are all I read from Marvel, I've dropped Civil War 2 after the second issue. Everything is so bland.

DC on the other hand has started so strong. I'm currently reading Batman, Superman, Flash, Green Arrow, Action Comics and Detective Comics. Might try some more like Teen Titans.

Just seen that Iron Man is going to be a teenage girl, I guess with Parker being the main adult Marvel character and basically he's now Iron Man in a Spider-Man suit it made no sense having Stark as Iron Man anymore and his book barely touched ASM sales.
