There's also clear differences, Batgordon, Superbro, Joker were done for the story, maybe Batgordon seized the publicity a little with "who's the new Batman" but that's it, FalCap, Whor, and I don't remember what else of that wave they did, but I'm sure it was plenty cause I was mad every weekend one of those stupid announcements came out :lol were done for the pandering and the spotlight, NOT for the stories.

Oh, NuThor was obviously a PC stunt, no doubt. But FalCap is as much a plot device as BatGordon. Thing is, if you want really good sories, you have to make due with indies and the lesser known characters. And Batman. The rest? Eh, you're gonna be dissapointed. The last great "Big Name" book I read was Fraction's Iron Man, which was phenomenal. Superior Spider-Man was fun. Batman was overall good (though it had some stinkers). And that's it for me. I enjoyed the B/C Listers much more.


The first 2 or 3 arcs of NOW were great, but then it went right to ****, and thus, spawning ANAD.

Eh, I guess. But either way, Moon Knight's great, Ultimates and Uncanny X-Men are damn good, and Deadpool's just as good as last time, so I'm happy. Doctor Strange is absymal, but I'm pulling out of devotion to the character. Silver Surfer is the most cringeworthy piece of **** I've read in recent years though. It's a Doctor Who Rip-Off starring Clara Oswald. It's really, really bad...

Nope, FalCap was too, more a PC stunt than was a plot device at all, Batgordon wasn't much of a plot device, it was a character handling a situation for the sake of the story, it was in fact, fallout from the previous story.

DC has done like 1% of the PC whoring Marvel has been doing recently, and even then they don't use the publicity.

I have my MK issues ready for me for this weekend now that this semester's over :yess:
 
I'm sure it's just an alternate universe Rogers who will don an "evil" version of the suit at the end of the series when original universe Steve makes his dun dun dun DRAMATIC RETURN. These gimmicks are so predictable that I'm surprised anyone even bothers to nerd rage over them anymore. I was going to say that he'll probably also turn out to be a gay transgendered hermaphrodite but then I remembered that Rob Liefeld already went that route with Cap.

Well, you're not wrong.

Eh, Kaldur was just revealed to be gay in Rebirth. Nu-52 Wally, one of DC's most famous and beloved characters, became black during the New 52. Sure, Marvel is far, far more PC, but it's not like DC is innocent of it.

Oh, it's brilliant! The art especially is crazy good. It's easily my favourite run apart from the first vol, back in the 80s.

None of that was exploited for publicity, none of that. And I was actually thinking of those 2 examples to say 1% :lol

Hell, they ****ing laff at SJW.

Magnificent bastards.

**** it, I'm reading it tonight.
 
It totally is! :rotfl

Cap: "So are you here for WCW?" *light applause* "Or are you here for the N...W...O...?" *crowd goes wild* And then he changes allegiances, and back again, etc.

This is why I'm a Volume 1 Cap purist. Cap Wolf and Battle Armor Cap are looking pretty damn sweet right now. :lol

Can we call him Hollywood Cap and have him strut out with a doo rag on his head now?
 
Man I just finished AOU and that movie has aged really well.

Sure the South Korea stuff is somewhat wonky but man does Hulk battle with Hulkbuster, Vision's birth, the ending in Sokovia and Vision's talk with Ultron deliver the goods.

I still got goosebumps during the church battle and quad strike on Ultron.

Sorry but that movie is indeed FRESH!
