They missed another fucking digital release. I'm so pissed.

Well shit
That's upsetting, because Blue is legit good.
Depends on how far they go with the Penguin gimmick. Technically Freeze should go into Blackgate as well, since he isn't insane either, but Arkham also acts as a general metahuman prison.
They are for Cable. Blue and Gold don't have a legacy to pull from (which means they'll probably get renamed), Astonishing is a twelve-issue series and then we're getting a new X-book out of that. Weapon X doesn't have a legacy to pull from, same with Old Man Logan and Jean Grey. I don't know if they're doing it with Iceman and All-New Wolverine. I know nothing about Gen X.
Still upsetting.

Missed deadlines, erratic hiatuses, weirdly inconsistent art...
I'm telling you, they've taken the Keenspot Comics model to the direct market.

I still can't preorder Galaktikon 1 or Hillbilly 7
And I still can't buy Namwolf 4
Sometimes digital feels like losing

After watching several episodes of MHA, I can safely say that I can't stand Bakugou.
The drawings are impressive. Is the artist working at one of the big companies or is he just freelance?

They are using panels from comics and just replacing the word balloons.

Yeah I like it a lot. All of the costumes on that team are great.
Lol, Thor, "Didn't I just leave with Spidey?"

Yeah they are.
I can also safely say Zub's first issue is, drumroll please...
Bad. Outside of the art (godlike), it's bad. Just like Thunderbolts was.
If the book doesn't right the course post Empire with the Wanda storyline, it's fucked.
Wasp has a lot of costumes and some off ones.
The fuck is this?
Jarvis isn't really sure if that is a good costume.

Is Todoroki's father Hero Academia's counterpart of Hank Pym?

I like that more than her awful green and purple monstrosity.Wasp has a lot of costumes and some off ones.
The fuck is this?
Why would it? She's possessed by a cosmic elder god. What course is there to right?
Also I hate his characterization of Rogue. Maybe this was a good characterization ten years ago, but not anymore.

I didn't think too much of it either, but I liked the issue after that a lot more
Oh the Secret Wars one. Ugh.
I thought Zub wasn't the issue with Thunderbolts but it seems I was wrong. Again, Zub just came in for Empire but it seems he's giving a fuck about the team though.
Rogue trying to go solo seemed off though considering how vital she was during the Red Skull-Standoff arcs.

Carey developed Rogue into a strong, confident, and competent leader, and Duggan carried that forward. And now she's second-guessing herself and wondering if she's fit to lead and take charge? Bolts and leaves her team on their own?
FUCKING WHY?

Did I fucking miss an issue of X-Men Blue? Who is Briar Raleigh and when did Jimmy get a costume?
WHAT'S HAPPENING?!

Probably. Seems like those things come out twice a week these days.

Even Karl Lagerfelds stuff is sometimes ugly.

Briar was a major character in Bunn's Magneto. Her reintroduction in this issue was jarring even for me and I read most of that book.
The costume though, I have no idea. Definitely felt like there was a missing issue there

Why does he wear the mask!?

Aaaah good that he assumed we've read all of his works with no need to introduce a character at all then.

These Secret Empire tie-ins are worse than the CW2 ones, because at least CW2 didn't have a timeskip that just makes everything horrendously confusing.
"We all have secondary mutations that don't make sense regarding our power set." OH REALLY? THAT'S NICE.

It really is pretty bad, especially since (Magneto spoilers)
when I dropped the series, only a few issues before it ended, it felt like things were coming to a head between Magneto and Briar. So I suspect you needed to not just have read that book, but to have read the whole thing for her role in this book to have made sense.
I dunno though, maybe it didn't make sense to anyone

Barriers to entry are my jam, donnie
I've hated the concept of tie-ins ever since Gotham Central had that random issue where an alien was destroying New York and then everything goes back to normal in the next issue. You could totally tell they were forced to do a tie-in to whatever event was happening.

This here is my queen. You will be respectful towards her. If I so much hear any outlandish rudeness I shall strike you down with the swiftness of my trusty blade.
For real though, she is owning it.

Also I have a question regarding X-Men Blue #8:
Is Emma going to rape Scott? Because that's the vibe I got off of that entire thing.
Like holy shit is that creepy and terrifying.

So I finished the first Daredevil volume by Soule; it has some fantastic art and a nice story, but there are parts where I just felt something was missing. Like in the third issue, you're reading some thoughts by Matt and his thoughts on Tenfingers and the next page BAM you some random dudes getting powers. It was really strange and because of that the story doesn't flow. That's my only major gripe with it. Still enjoyed it. Because seriously, that art.
Btw, whats another great Daredevil story? I heard Brubakers run is great, but its out of print?

It's hard to describe, but
the O5 are taken prisoner and Scott is put in a solo cell and Emma is using her powers to condition him while talking about her and Scott against the world and talking to him as if he were older Scott.
It's really uncomfortable.
