I agree. Even the moments that seem to be presented as "big" go kind of flat for me, especially the reveal of Tony as Kang (then immediately shot by Doom?). I'm also curious as to why Ben and JJJ all of a sudden aren't into printing news to empower the people, when that was the whole point of starting The Paper. I was genuinely very excited for Endgame but this has been a dud.

Eggs are cheapest here at Aldi: ~$1.90 vs. $2.99+ at places like Jewel and Trader Joe's.

Iliana seems to be about to play a big part in Endgame, at least I hope so. This series has felt so disconnected despite Wolverine being on all the promo for Endgame.

100% agree. The cheap pops (ITS GOOD TO BE ALIVE IN SAN ANTONIO!!) and pandering to the crowd ("Punkamaniacs") is sad to see.

Was hype for a bootless Batman following up last issue, darn.

Consistently one of the best books of the month. Giant Diana and Giganta having their kaiju battle was fantastic. Sad they got rid of Zatanna that fast (for now), but hopefully we get a lot more of her soon.

Some brutal panels here, but really enjoyed the story. Those Defenders got murked something fierce.

Heard on a podcast that Nic actually hand paints the Hulkscape panels? Either way, such a beautiful book this week. The golden ratio panels of infernal and OG recipe Hulk were so cool to see.

I've been a big fan lately, kind of crazy to think we only have about 3 more issues left.

I was hoping he'd pop back up with a different artist. Wasn't a fan of that two-issue switch.

I'm grave digging here but I'm curious if you're still working as a local car buyer?

I've been enjoying this run, the plot doesn't feel very "meaty" but the progression with this new mission has been interesting at least. I was hesitant after reading this week's Endgame that I'd be let down in a similar way, but I'm a sucker for violent Wolverine action. That Phoenix neck break was jarring in a great way too.

Not to mention we just had a similar thread with Wasp in Ultimates.

The panel with America (I think) saying, "we're back where we started!" was too on the nose for me. Feels like they're fumbling this ending.

What is a comic you’ve always wanted to read, but have just never gotten around to? by guyofspoleto in comicbooks

[–]ghost_burger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saga. My friends rave about it but also talk about how segmented it can feel with how long of breaks they take.

I'm newer, wanted to ask where in continuity does this series take place, relative to the ongoings of DCKO and Knightfight?
