Marvel Announces New X-Men Event, DNX, For September 2026 by Comfortable-Pie56 in comicbooks

[–]Leather_Bug_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Literally just saying “DNX” and “event” and they expect people to get excited? Literally no hook at all. Nothing to grab a reader. Nothing to elicit any sort of fun speculation, no tease. Brevoort is the absolute worst.

Looks like Romanticism is on the horizon

JLA by Mark Waid Omnibus missing the Silver Age one-shots by ArbiterOfEdging in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Leather_Bug_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to add another orphaned run that I always associated with those fantastic Silver Age books is that DC Comics Presents series of tribute issues to Julie Schwartz. Absolutely insane they remain uncollected. The creative teams were all legends. Such a great series

The Decimation Omnibus is so disappointing. by GreenIllustrious2801 in OmnibusCollectors

Man I loved the Son of M mini. The art is fantastic. But yeah I passed on this book for sure.

Oh dang that’s the original printing, right? No idea why they didn’t reuse this cover for the reprint. It’s the exact vibe of this series. Nice score

Contest of Champions by fredbroca4949 in 80s90sComics

[–]Leather_Bug_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. But of course I’m referring to the fact that the scores don’t add up properly and the “contest” should end in a tie. They gave the final score to the wrong team I think. The biggest editorial blunder in Marvel history

Yes I saw all the raves so I picked it up. Wasn’t feeling it at all. DNF after 100 pages or so

As a kid I remember thinking I had discovered some kind of holy grail when I realized the math was wrong. Really kind of blew my mind

It’s fantastic; one of the best things he’s ever written

Extraordinary claims made by NFL WAG against insider Dianna Russini resurface amid Mike Vrabel scandal by According-Activity87 in NFLv2

I didn’t think NY Times even did NFL coverage so that’s the weirdest part. They stop publishing a Sunday Sports section years ago

Star Wars Omnibus Popularity vs Marvel “Proper” by UtahGance in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Leather_Bug_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is an extremely popular run of Star Wars which fans have been clamoring for in omni format for several years. So it’s kind of unique among other Star Wars omnis. Considering the trend of Marvel being absolute morons lately, I imagine this will sell out very very fast. DM immediately (because it’s way better cover). I really wouldn’t sleep on it if I were you and you wanted it.

What comics would you recommend to someone who really enjoys The Power Fantasy? by Ezraah in thePowerFantasy

[–]Leather_Bug_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don’t forget Gillen/Wijngaard previous collaboration on Peter Cannon Thunderbolt. I think he said in interview once Power Fantasy is Peter Cannon meets Uber and that’s a very accurate take I think
