Nope, he's alive and well and the primary villain for Sunspot's Avengers team.

Posts like this make me realize how far behind I am. Don't know whether to go back and read through the thread or read comics for a month straight. I think I stopped shortly after Infinity.

Been trying to read up on Sam Wilson becoming the capatin

Do they ever resolve that misty not being apart of shield storyline in all new capatain america?

I think he was working on too many books at once. When he was doing only a few Marvel books and/or Image books he was dropping fire.

Fear Agent on the low is one of the best series I've ever read. Plus his X-Force and original Uncanny Avengers runs were

I still think he is doing too many books with Low, Tokyo Ghost, black science and Deadly Class. However of the 4 Deadly class has been the best one by far. Probably because its the most grounded in reality scenario of the 4 so he can focus on building characters more which is a strength his.

His Venom run is so underrated as well he was my favorite writer at Marvel during that period Deadly Class is one of the best things he's done as well. I need to catch up on Black Science and Tokyo Ghost though.

It always kills me how people be tripping over moments when movies, cartoons, or comics don't follow real world logic.

In a world where people can fly and shoot lasers out of their eyes, dudes be getting mad that a character didn't look both ways before crossing the street.

Why doesn't Hulk's pants tear

How can Superman and Lois Lane have sex? He's from Krypton

Apparently DC is rebooting the whole line and Snyder is leaving Batman for detective comics

 

[Red Shield]

Didn't they just do a reboot back in 2014

You reminded me I gotta get back on Fear Agent. Only read the first hardcover collection, really like the short Tales of the Fear Agent that came with it.

I liked his X-Force of what I read so far. Psylocke, Deadpool, Wolverine, Archangel and Fantomex. Underrated team. My first exposure to Fantomex.

Side bar: Though my favorite X-Team might be X-Statix. That omnibus was so good.

I worded it wrong they're just relaunching everything

Shiiiit, they need to reboot a few things with some of the shyt they straight botched.

Fukked mr. terrific over with that garbage ass book years ago and he's barely been on panel since! Had a brief resurgence in Earth 2 but has now been regulated to Grayson-Batman's personal off-panel morgan freeman luscious fox ass side kick! Don't even see him in the books!

Hell they could've had Val be the next Miles (or just made him an original kryptonian with links to Power/Super Girl) but they fukked it all up too by having him just be a background character simp!

All things John Stewart... I wouldn't even get started on that...

And I hear they're re-vamping a titans team with Grayson on it... but they should've been had a young justice team that paralleled the popular cartoon; i.e. co-led by Grayson and a similarly aged Kaldur (not the lil kid they made him pre-52, and have ignored since).

Ain't that the truth. The reboot was completely botched.... There are so many things you can say about the nu52. So many terrible missteps.

they should have let grant and geoff finish their batman and gl runs before rebooting.


Teen Tians/Young Justice were popular shows.. but DC doesn't understand synergy I guess. Instead gave us a book with Lobdell as a writer

Earth 2 was a great book, then DC kicked Robinson off. Then Earth 2 turned into Injustice pt2.... and just... Under Robinson it was probably the premier team book. I thought it far better than JL

Static Shock

Ruining Starling from bop

Yeah, they are basically doing what marvel has been doing for the past few years and what they tried on a smaller scale to do with the whole "Batgirling" thing not too long ago.
Basically they will be loosening the grip on continuity being so important from one title to the next while also getting the benefit of an entire line of new #1 issues to bump sales.
