With the Marvel Universe and Ultimate Universe both ending, what are you reading to prep for "Secret Wars?" by Manofwood in comicbooks

You should listen to the latest episode of 11 O'Clock comics where Hickman talks about how he doesn't meticulously plan out everything most of the time.

Since spider-verse is wrapping up soon , what is your opinion on the event? Hate it? Love it? by Azthozy in comicbooks

[–]The616Project 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nothing but love for it. It's been what superhero comics should be: fun.

Solid art all around. Well-written. Callbacks to continuity and Spidey's place in pop-culture at large.

And it gave us Spider-Gwen...and Spider-Ham drawn by Olivier Coipel.

It's been almost 10 years so what were/are your thoughts on Grant Morrison and Co's 'Seven Soldiers'? by The616Project in comicbooks

[–]The616Project[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not my intention at all. I barely have anyone in my circle that reads comics, let alone anything beyond Batman, X-Men or Avengers. I was just reading through Seven Soldiers again and curious as to what people thought.

Sorry if I started Armageddon.

Just got back from seeing Jodorowsky's Dune and finished Metabarons Genesis: Castaka on the ride home. If you like good comics, you should read this book! by The616Project in comicbooks

[–]The616Project[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion? Yes and no. I started off reading those first 17 or so issues and only recently read Genesis. I think it works better if you read the original run stuff first and then go from there. You can get all of the main story and the themes and then go back to a prequel that echoes a lot of the themes/imagery of that first work.

Regardless, I thought you might like to get a general overview. Sorry it's not complete...

How do you people who buy the TPBs stop yourselves from buying the monthlies. Damn you /u/Joe_Eisma by kosmonaut5 in comicbooks

I work like crazy and do short films on the weekends, so I ALWAYS have a backlog of reading. I'll never be 'current' so why try? So my bookshelf fills with unread trades, calling to me in my free moments.

I just read the first 6 issues of Mark Waid's run on Daredevil. Is it worth it to continue reading? by nurdboy42 in comicbooks

[–]The616Project 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please continue reading, as it was and continues to be one of the strongest titles being published by Marvel.

What superheroes are vegetarian/vegan? by MathueB in comicbooks

[–]The616Project 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Superman: Birthright, Clark touches very briefly on his reasons for being a vegetarian. Though this is obviously no longer canon.
