Comic book and Manga thread

I read mine every month :proud:

I want to get the colored editions that are coming out but it feels like it would be a waste of money lol.

I said the same thing, lol.

But colored sounds so tempting, especially because of the whole tone of the comics.

It's a really hard decision.

I might just buy them later when they're cheaper. Hopefully they'll still be some left lol.

Some interesting info from Marvel's Panel @NYCC regarding Spidey, Punisher, DareDevil, Venom, Hawkeye, Capt Marvel (aka Carol) and others (via ComicVine):
Spoiler:
-'Dying Wish' will be the final story in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Cover revealed of a not-so healthy looking Doc Oc saying "...Peter Parker."

-Stan Lee will answer letters from a "select few fans" in the letter column of ASM #700. Keep an eye on Marvel's news (via their main site or social media pages) over the next few weeks to find out how to apply.

-AVENGING SPIDER-MAN 15.1 will serve as a bridge between ASM and what's to come next. Those will be the ONLY two Marvel books coming out that week in Dec.
-SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN discussion starts (Slott/Stegman). The all new Spider-Man isn't Peter Parker and Slott calls it "very dark, very weird."

-Keatinge will write MORBIUS THE LIVING VAMPIRE. The writer says he's been a big fan of the character for a long time because "he's not a hero, he's not a villain. He's just a guy trying to do well and he's relentless in trying to do good but it always messes up."
-This won't be a prison book. Morbius will be leaving the Raft.

-Waid thanks fans for all of their support of DAREDEVIL.
-Says the theme of the title is "actions have consequences."
-The new Spider-Man will appear in the title to help Matt battle the new Stilt-Man. "I can't believe I just said that," Waid remarks.
-Issue #23 will reveal the mystery villain that has been playing Matt since issue #3.
-Hank Pym to appear a lot more in DD. Waid says he loves their friendship.

-Bunn says 'Minimum Carnage' will have "more symbiotes per panel than ever before."
-Venom is leaving the Big Apple and moving to Philly. When asked why, they joked it's because of Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
-But really, it's because Venom will "need a change" after the events of 'Minimum Carnage.'
-Christopher Yost is "taking him [Kaine] down a pretty dangerous path next year" in SCARLET SPIDER.

-David Aja to remain on HAWKEYE -- sadly, no update on Landlord bro.
-DAREDEVIL: END OF DAYS takes place in the not too distant future. Does that mean we're getting a Bullseye resurrection story soon...?

-CAPTAIN MARVEL to have "a lot of Carol Danvers blasting stuff."

-PUNISHER WAR ZONE to redefine Frank's role in the Marvel universe.
-Described as a 5 issue cat and mouse chase -- you'll believe Frank can elude the Avengers.

-No plans for a SPIDER-MEN follow-up at the moment.
-A new version of The Big Wheel to appear in SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN.
-Waid hinted Black Cat might appear more in DAREDEVIL.
-As for how Morbius leaves the raft -- we're told read ASM #699. They added "they're very aware of all the villains currently in the Raft."
-Super natural element will come back to VENOM -- but right now Bunn wants to focus on more street level stories.
-Question: "Is Anti-Venom going to show up again?" Answer: "Yes, Eddie Brock for sure." Then what does the future hold for Toxin...?

Q: "Will Black Widow or Mockingbird be in HAWKEYE?" A: "Yes... to one of those."
-We'll be seeing more of Mr. Negative, Overdrive & Vulture!

Q: "How come you don't make 2099 Spider-Man comics anymore?" A: "You want to see Spider-Man 2099? We'll do it for you!"

Also, some artwork for the upcoming new titles (buncha pictures coming up lol):

Going to be a very interesting year for Marvel Comics...
 
It really is going to be an interesting year. I've read a preview of the new Deadpool that's being written by Brian Posehn and it's going to be great. The preview was hilarious and awesome.

As for the Doc Oc thing. That sounds pretty cool. My friend told me about that last night.

So I read the first issue of Uncanny Avengers and...

YES! I will be picking this series up for sure. It's fvcking awesome.
 
Went to the comic book store earlier today and picked up Deadpool #2, A+X #1 and #2, X-Force #34 and they have a bunch of boxes with old comics in them, went and looked around and they had X-Force #6, so I picked that up as well.

The newest issue of X-Force was pretty damn depressing too.
Spoiler:
Wolverine drowns his own son, Daken and while he's drowning him, Daken is thinking how his life would have been different if his dad was around to care for him.
 
But Daken was evil as fvck wasn't he.

I want to read the Civil War comics when I get back

Yeah, Daken is evil as hell. But the reason he's like that is because his dad wasn't ever there for him and he got beat on constantly when he was a kid and had a whole shitty life. So Wolverine is responsible for the way he turned out.

Went to the comic book store today and I saw a sweet variant cover to Uncanny Avengers. I HAD to pick it up.

I saw it online before the comic came out, but I just now saw it in person. I'm glad I picked it up. It's my favorite variant cover that I have. Until I get ahold of the Thunderbolts baby cover.
 
So I started reading this comic series called Ultimate War where Magneto has come back from the dead and has declared war on humanity and apparently the X-Men have defected to his side, it's pretty interesting so far.
 
I've heard of that but I have never read it. I don't any of my friends have either.

I read Uncanny Avengers last night and it was pretty damn awesome. I'm gonna start picking that series up. With Scott in prison and Xavier dead everything has gone to hell and they want Alex (Scott's brother) to take the lead now. It's gonna be a good series. I already know it.
 
Local Antique shop wants Marvel Secret Wars for $40 and I'm sitting here with my thumb up my ass because I'm broke as shit.

I want to cry/rob that store.
 
These covers are pretty sick:

I saw Iron Man's new armor; it looks.... a bit weird; guess its gonna take time to get used to it lol; it's not bad imo though.
 
Yeah, I saw that variant for Thunderbolts. Hopefully the comic book store will have that one and the baby variants in stock when I get there, which should be right the minute they open. I seriously want those variants.

Hopefully there will be a variant for the last X-Force issue as well that comes out tomorrow too.

Gonna be spending quite a bit of money at the comic book store tomorrow.

Not COMIC related, but I ordered a Deadpool hoodie last night. It should be here sometime soon. I'll take pics of it when I get it. It's pretty fvcking sweet.
 
I went to a place called Vintage Stock here that sells old comics and other shit and I saw they had some old Deadpool comics. I picked up the first issue of 1994 Deadpool along with the 11th issue.

And I saw their Uncanny X-Force section. It was small but they had one comic of it that I didn't have, I could tell by the cover, so I just grabbed it and bought it. When I got home and took it inside, I saw that it was FVCKING ISSUE #1

That feeling was awesome.

I also decided to reorganize my comics and make catagories as well for series so I don't have to shuffle through them anymore. I am a genius.
IMG_20121204_220026.jpg


Also, for some reason, decided to take pics of my collection when organizing them.

Here are some of my Deadpool series stacked up.
The stack on the left is AvX/A+X
The stack next to that on the right is Battle Scars and Deadpool Kills The Marvel Universe
Next to that is Deadpool Team-Up
And the last stack is Uncanny X-Force.

Now here is the main series in a stack
IMG_20121204_214830.jpg


HUGE!
 
My friend who lives with me has more than I do. He's got at the LEAST over 400 comics. He mainly collects Spider-Man and Batman.
Like I mainly collect Deadpool and X-Force.
 
"So"...What?

I'm saying, you wouldn't really care to read my collection, if you saw my friends lol.

I don't have any Wolverine. The closest I have to his series is X-Force, AvX and A+X.

I'm thinking about picking up The All New X-Men. That series seems pretty cool.
