That's bull shit though. DC changed practically all their titles to $2.99, and Marvel still remains at $3.99. I'm paying $3.99 over once a month for Amazing Spider-Man ALONE, each month, and I can get any Flash, Batman, Superman, or Wonder Woman (or even Green Lantern) for $2.99. What is Marvel thi...

So why did "Magneto" and the Black Panther title fall to $2.99? The former is a movie-related one-shot of normal length, landing it clearly under the banner of something limited that is not part of an event nor of a page count that merits a price hike. As for Black Panther, I suspect they...

Nice letter. :) On a side (and almost entirely unrelated) note, I do want to know what happened to that statement that all titles for Marvel starting in January 2011 dropping to $2.99. I can give you the answer to that: They never said any such thing; although, it's what a lot of people mistakenly t...

I ran into one that got as far as Nation X or so and ran across a forum where people were working with more recent arcs. It's a big enough project that I can understand why people would give up after a while. On the plus side, figuring out the order of arcs between UXM and GH is easy 'cause the writ...

Thanks. Is there an order for Heroic age comics? Some comic arcs have a correct order for the issues, like Chaos War. I want the timeline for all X-Men comics, plus characters related to the X-Men, as well as comics that involve the X-Men. It's only really since last year I got stuck with the order...

This might be of some assistance with the bigger stuff: [img width=800px height=359px]http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_slzL0vHRjtY/TKDPtGLpaWI/AAAAAAAAGQw/Ck_kw1E4Xek/s1600/1285361782.jpg[/img] AXM hasn't even made it to the Heroic Age. It just kind of does its own thing, so it's probably best to ignore it...

There are certain things for which Quesada could legitimately be blamed (the famous "genies" being obvious examples), but I'm not saying he should be blamed for everything. There are others in the works who can muck up an idea just as effectively as the guy at the top of the food chain. He...

Here's the text with the basic job description from the official press release from when Joe was promoted to CCO of Marvel Entertainment (emphasis mine): New York, NY – June 2, 2010 – Marvel Entertainment, LLC announced today that it has promoted Joe Quesada to Chief Creative Officer of Marvel Enter...

Dammit, I love my husband. We watched the teaser, and the silhouette animation for what I believe is the girl player character resulted in the following comment: "Who is that? Sailor Moon?" Ahem. Other than the goatee, I don't think the concept art for Kurt looks so bad. He looks like he's...

Like I said, he's head of the "Creative Structure", but he's not Editor In Chief of comics or has any control over that anymore. And as I said after that; he's being pulled away from the main-artery of the comics to appeal to their readers. He's got bad ju-ju on him, 'dat boi! I think you...

Quesada isn't out of the publishing department at all. He's still a Grand Overseer of sorts to make sure the character portrayals remain as they should (*cough*) but is no longer directly involved in story development. He's only directly involved in story and script development for animation and fil...

I would like to think being it's a new writer on a classic title, with a lot of characters loved by many fans, it would make sense that once in awhile they hover over him to make sure he's got it right. I get correcting him when he's contradicting continuity or depicting a someone as wildly out of ...

Oh, I didn't mean to imply that Gischler said it as a negative. But here's an example (emphasis mine in underline): 4) What made you decide to throw the X-Men back into public light with your next arc, "Serve and Protect?" Is this Scott's way of saying, "It's time for us to be heroes ...

Isn't Fantastic Four ending in preparation for FF ? I can't keep up with all the reboots, much less on titles I don't read. :P I wouldn't expect much in the way of positive development until after the Fear event, which will be crossing into the X-titles. Before that, there's AoX and some kind of cri...

I'm definitely more of an artist than a writer. I've done more sculpting and painting with acrylics than digital work so far, but I'm learning. I'm debating over fleshing out the sketch a bit more before taking a second go at the Kurt image. Winging the face was resulting in him looking a bit like m...

Storm was there once already, via video call on a computer in the first issue. Her husband told her to stay away so he could maintain his cover and do what it is he's trying to do, and she agreed. The comics don't have to be depressing for there to be a significant impact from his death. In fact, th...

If I remember correctly, it was in New Avengers #7. Or maybe it was #6. It was the issue before the most recent one; that much I know for sure. Of course, since when does death mean anything? More Spoilers Ahoy! . . . . Phobos, the god of fear, got run through with a god-killing sword and joined his...

Mmm, Skrull bologna …

The pros? Kurt's probably gotten more panel time since died than he did in the previous year. (Yeah, I went there.) It did allow Emma to have a rare moment of character depth in the scene where she discussed naming her gray hairs. Honestly, I don't think his death had much more than a superficial im...

Post it? I won't even let my husband read it! :LOL I didn't start with any kind of plot in mind, so it just keeps getting longer and has structural problems. It's also in dire need of editing to smooth out some stylistic inconsistencies. The dialogue sequences are probably far too long in places and...

Fear Itself is a big, fat crossover event on the scale of Secret Invasion . Details here. Some tidbits: Fraction: "The Marvel heroes versus the God of Fear. The more you fear him, the stronger he gets." Brevoort: "There is a secret, a concealed act that happened at the heart of the M...

I get why they killed Kurt. I still think it's stupid, but I get it. I still think it was unnecessary, but I get it. They needed the man of faith--sadly, he was characterized as little else by that point--to put his faith in Hope. What really bothers me is that he was used as a prop in a pattern tha...

It occurred to me that Kurt likely won't be appearing in any ongoing title, other than in flashbacks, once X-Men Forever ends. He hasn't had his own mutation in that title for months and really hasn't had much focus. I miss the fuzzy blue elf. :( As far as comics go, I still read quite the pile. Cur...

*gigglefit* Wibble. By Zod, that's a great word. Oo! Oo! I know! There's this whole Fear event thing coming (because we totally need another massive event). Maybe a bunch of worst-case-scenario fear-based hallucinations were interwoven into actual events because Phobos was having Daddy issues (or so...

Well, you could give the new Dungeons & Dragons title by IDW (I think) a try. The lead-up in the #0 issue was the most fun I've had reading a comic in a long time, a situation that's rather sad when I think about it. Issue #1 was quite enjoyable as well. The content in comics is probably more of...
