I think the only time I liked JRJr was when he was on Punisher. And then only sparingly. His shyt look like legos. Can't stand it.

it's like he never grew past the second stage of the Loomis method

Similar to when Marvel did sequels to Age of Apocalypse.
Alternate realities that were created specifically to be wiped from existence at the end of their story never seem to stay wiped from existence.

I’m down for a Flashpoint Bat book. Wouldn’t mind an ongoing.

Warning: Random Comic Thoughts That Don't Have Anything To Do With Anything

I came in here to talk about how much I enjoyed Savage Avengers as a whole

and a thought hit me:

Marvel 616 doesn't have anywhere near a set future anymore.

and yeah, to be fair, you can say they prolly never had one....

but before, you could say they had a few... possible ones at any given point. You could even create a rough future timeline.

you had :

Killraven/OG GOTG's timeline (Martians invaded in 1901 on some Orson Welles shyt, then again in 1917, totally wrecked Earth's shyt in 2001)

Days of Future's Past

Marvel 2099

Bishop/Layla Miller's future (Why don't they bring back Bishop's sister Shard!?)

Cable's future


I think between Mutants constantly fukking up the timeline and Kang running around like The Master from Doctor Who, none of these futures really exist anymore. That would be a cool storyline. Alternate realities only exist when youre traveling to the past. The future is just some wild unfathomable shyt.


on a sort of related note, I think if Firestar is on Krakoa, then Vance Astro should be, too. It would be an interesting idea: someone who's essentially a future Captain America on a galactic scale trying to learn to adapt to living in a mutant nation. Like a human immigrant. (Vance is a mutant He's been a New Warrior and an Avenger, never had to deal with "mutant" issues)

DC already canceled that Yara Flor Wonder Girl book?

Hopefully they learn by now to stop giving Joelle Jones monthly books, especially if she's writing and drawing.

Surprised any of the future slate stuff is around

That doesn't shock me at all.
The book had a lot of hype when it first dropped and it was a great looking book but Joelle Jones cannot keep to a monthly schedule to save her life.
The book had delay after delay that completely killed any momentum it had.
I foresee DC relaunching with a different creative team and probably with a good number of issues in the can before they even announce it.

@Jello Biafra @Dillah810 @The Collector @Jmare007 can you guys give me some info. What attracts you to a new comic ? One you've never seen before.

Honestly, I stick with Marvel/DC. The Indy stuff I bought was just randomly found in boxes or from writers I like.

Like @The Collector I mostly only read Marvel & DC. What what usually attracts me to a new title whether it be Indy or mainstream, is the how good the art looks and if the story synopsis seems interesting.
