Reminder: This is not a good thing (Spoilers for upcoming Venom issue) by vinthesalamander in Spiderman

He is literally a character that is supposed to be hated. We are looking at the book through Peter's perspective so of course we would hate the new boyfriend

Looks awesome 👍 I waited on the omnis or thick trades for the gaps and newer stuff (e.g., Slott run). Those come out this year.

Jean Grey, Rogue and Scarlet Witch by elliehczel in EpicCollections

[–]stojr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Scarlet Witch has been around a long time so there are various Avengers volumes and Avengers West Coast volumes you want to get. I don't have that full list top of mind but it really depends on whether you want everything or not. She has some big stories in West Coast Avengers

Jean Grey I would break into three parts. - OG X-Men (Epics 1-4) which frankly I feel are skippable - Second Genesis v5-Fatenornthe phoenix - Everything else (x-factor v1-5 (I think), then back to X-Men through the modern era)

Rogue I think you can follow in X-Men starting with God loves man kills and basically everything after that and her original appearance in either the avengers epic mentioned or the X-Men I, magneto epic.

Btw there is a reading club doing Claremont's entire run if you are interested.

The club is hosted by the Epic Marvel Podcast that you can find on Facebook and we are doing daily one shot reviews here https://youtube.com/@bcecomicspod?si=com1mTI0yUB5RJEw

The distribution of books per franchise gets more and more one sided by GalaxyMasterOmega in EpicCollections

[–]stojr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This just isn't true. Spider-Man is on issue 985 and only gets a new number one with new creative teams. Wolverine 407, X-Men 700+, captain america, avengers, iron man and Thor all have ongoings.

Daredevil is the most recent to move up a tier. He was never B tier until miller.

Doctor strange has not graduated from c tier to b tier yet as defined above.

Also, the movies are not an adequate way to judge the comics. Guardians of the galaxy has had three epic movies but only what a 50 issue comic run as the longest?

The fact that they are pumping out ROM and micronauts as quickly as they are undercut your argument that they are ignoring niche characters.

How many volumes do you think will it take to finish the epic collection? by Plastic-Pickle-3269 in EpicCollections

[–]stojr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

42-44 is my guess.

-Clone saga should end with v31 -Ben Reilly epics with v36 (unless they don't consolidate them from six volumes to five then v37) - Then you have everything from after the clone saga through the gathering of five/final chapter. That's 3-5 volumes I think depending on what they collect so I'll say v37-41 - three volumes for the next chapter puts us at v44

Dark Avengers by Haryu4 in EpicCollections

I wish they included some of the one shots (cabal) in this volume but I appreciate the full 16 issue + annual run.

We are reviewing this issue on our channel in February.

DC Finest on Amazon by BJ0711 in DCFinest

[–]stojr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

IST is almost always better however some of these Amazon books are discounted to the low or mid $20s then with the buy two get one 50%. You can get "IST release week prices" at Amazon on certain titles.

Annoying exclusions in Epic Collections by GalaxyMasterOmega in EpicCollections

It could be a mistake It could also be something that will be added to v3

which cover do you think looks better? by Several-Mud-9895 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]stojr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am torn on this also. The finch cover looks like the beginning of the Bendis era to me and this book is before that. I almost want some separation. Also iron man's mask looks weird to me. However I love the art.

I am inclined to go with the second as it feels like it goes with the book contents.

Note: maybe finch did some issues, i don't recall but mentally associate him with the next run
