Well original sin #8 was disappointingly obvious. Can't even be bothered to go find my post where I called it.

UXM #25 was a mix of at Scott and at Xavier

[Mafro]

Everyone called it.

[Memento Mori]

Especially when Marvel announced Bucky's new series.

Gail Simone on New 52 Secret Six

shock horror etc.

At Last, Here Comes Grant Morrison’s Miracleman, With Joe Quesada..

Grant Morrison has talked a few times about the Kid Marvelman story he was asked to write for Warrior Magazine back in the day, after they’d fallen on bad terms with Alan Moore, only to get a note from Alan Moore asking him please not to.

Moore is such a banana split

We’d previously told you that Marvel would be publishing two comic books for New Years Eve. One would be the new Mark Waid penned Agents Of SHIELD series. The other is the Miracleman Annual. Which will feature that story from thirty years ago by Grant Morrison, drawn by Marvel EIC Joe Quesada, and more stories besides.

that's gona be expensive

Oh ffs. Spider-Man 2099 derailed by an event already.

I bet the only reason that title exists was for this event.

A bit odd that ultimate spidey isn't a tie in title as well given the fact Miles will blates be a major part of the event.

Come to think of it, I don't think I remember seeing any AXIS tie-ins for Uncanny or All-New X-Men which is absolutely ridiculous given what it's about

Marvel have too much crossover stuff.

Marvel have too much crossover stuff.

DC are no better. I seriously cannot remember the last time you could just pick up one Green Lantern title. I swear even at the beginning of John's run you needed GL and GL Corps. Every Superman "event" in the new 52 you need to get at least Superman, Action Comics and one of Supergirl/Superboy and probably a one off issue in there as well. As for Batman luckily atm it's more a case of pick up Snyder's Batman for the full story and the rest of the bat-titles as you please.

It's gooseberry fool from both parties. Especially when they always up the price on those "event" titles.

[Memento Mori]

Green Lantern is been in a never-ending chain of events since Johns started on the book in like 2005.

Bendis isn't writing Spiderverse or AXIS so he doesn't care.

From his Tumblr:

x-menfan asked: why isnt the O5 part of avengers and x-men axis?????

brianmichaelbendis:

because they are dealing with an equally important story in their own book.

Bendis.

[Mafro]

Retconning more stuff, is he?

[Memento Mori]

That equally important as AXIS ANXM story:


The O5 meet Miles Morales in the Ultimate Universe.
