What happened to Dr Doom's son? I didnt know he had a son until Hickman's Time Runs Out... and then I guess Doom forgot he had a son too and just opted to have Reed's in Secret Wars II.

What happened to the Hulk's son? Skaar? And Betty, who turned into red she-hulk?

Coates on a podcast last week confirmed there is going to be a third Black Panther book announced soon.

And the cues he was giving in a later soundbyte in that same podcast all but point to it being a "The Crew" book.

If so, I imagine geriatric Logan will be pushin lil Jeanie to the bushes for another timely :mjpls:'Ro session

No doubt it'll be ongoing:mjpls:

X-O Manowar by Venditti is the best Valiant book since the '12 relaunch, it hit #50 this week actually. The book has a minor slump somewhere in the middle but for the rest it's great sci-fi action.

Harbinger is really good too. It also has a similar slump in it and the ending isn't really all that (although the story is still ongoing in other books) but again, the good tends to overshadow the bad here. Also features one of the best comic book antagonists in Toyo Harada.

For pure action you got Bloodshot. Pretty much all the iterations of the book are solid to good, although I still prefer the OG run.

If you're more into comedy and off-beat science stuff, you can't go wrong with Quantum & Woody by James Asmus and Archer & Armstrong by Fred van Lente. Both runs have ended already and aren't too long, so they're easy to get into.

A book that's fairly young is Wrath Of The Eternal Warrior by Robert Venditti (same writer as X-O Manowar). It probably helps if you're a bit familiar with the character (this book is a restart after some earlier books featuring the character didn't really work out that well so there's already some history there). Either way it's a very promising start.

You could also check out some of Matt Kindt's work to see if it's to your liking. I'm not a fan of his work and generally avoid him, but he writes a lot of Valiant stuff so if you do dig him, there's a whole bunch of books you can pick up.
Valiant, image, rebirth >>>>>

Valiant books stay on point

Speaking of Hickman, anyone read The Black Monday Murders?

Read the first two. Love how it's being set up and anxious to see where he takes all of this. Issue 3 is out soon:lupe:

You mean Kristoff?

What happened to the Hulk's son? Skaar?

He's chilling in the rural parts of france or something, just living his life.

And Betty, who turned into red she-hulk?

She's still around, but she lost her powers.

Is anyone actually enjoying this Batman crossover :scust:

Cage was corny but the corny that people enjoy.

Jessica Jones was okay but I'm off this book til the omnibus comes out. I can't deal with Bendis's pacing

That new Azzarello image book was dope as fukk
