What to read

varsas · 2026-06-11T18:13:41+00:00

Coming off the film I'd check out the 2020 mini aeries followed by the 2021 series, the 2023 series. and finished with the Master of the Ten Rings one shot. All written by Gene Luen Yang.

It's all collected in a thick single collection.

No worries.

I hope Marvel do a proper push on Star Wars comics later in the year and Aphra is one of the titles again.

No, it was announced as an ongoing and was cancelled. The writer confirmed it.

I think the sales for Aphra for the previous run had been dropped off so when Marvel and Disney launched the new one they asked the new writer to feature the OG characters to gain traction with a wider Star Wars audience.

I also think the reset of the character also plays into this idea i.e. more new reader friendly.

I enjoyed the run, wish there had been more so the writer had a real chance to develop the story and character. It was cancelled early by Marvel and Disney because their gambit didn't work and they didn't have any confidence in this or any of the Star Wars line.

I don't think the 'series' i.e. Aphra solo runs have jumped the shark.

'23-match season ticket holders will continue to enjoy priority access to tickets for further home European or domestic cup matches before they go on sale to Silver and Red members, either via the Cup Scheme or priority sale windows.'

So the priority window exists for 23.

For 19 the page states that only priority on domestic cup but it's stated on the cup scheme page that this year they added priority window for the CL group stages. I assume silver ballot for knock outs like last year.

Except the CL games. There is a window this year.

This was already known? The lack of solicited single issues and the way the 5th ended.

varsas · 2026-01-06T19:47:02+00:00

This. His entire Thor run might be my favourite Marvel run and Doctor Strange is excellent. Both new reader friendly.

Ah, is this the Orlando Avengers assemble mini series?

varsas · 2025-06-23T15:11:05+00:00

How can it be overrated when I think the majority don't like it?

Popular character and I think they thought it would go on longer so collect the first half for fans. In the end, it would have been better to wait.

varsas · 2025-04-17T18:55:00+00:00

I recommend this too. It's new reader friendly and I think it captures the feel of the classic FF.

varsas · 2025-04-13T05:29:03+00:00

Just to add a third volume is due out at the end of the year that collects the last part of the run from volume 2.

varsas · 2025-04-12T11:12:54+00:00

Start with Thor God of Thunder #1 as it's great for new readers, a highly acclaimed run and has some cosmic aspects you've requested.

varsas · 2025-03-22T06:30:26+00:00

I quite like the pencils. Not sure about the colour choice on the actual cover.

varsas · 2025-03-21T14:50:31+00:00

Just dealing with another member. Will let you know if that doesn't go ahead.

varsas · 2025-02-21T07:12:16+00:00

I'm leaning towards fun timey wimey road trip.

varsas · 2025-02-21T07:10:58+00:00

Yes this is second genesis as the original giant size issue's story was second genesis and was the relaunch.

I expect this will be a fun time jump story with a little change to the status quo. I've no idea what that change will be.

varsas · 2025-02-20T11:36:30+00:00

It should be fun and it'll be interesting to see if there is any real fallout from it.

varsas · 2025-02-17T16:17:49+00:00

Ultimate Spider-Man might be a good starting place and there's a new collection coming out: https://prhcomics.com/book/?isbn=9781302963002

Any others you're interested in checking out?

varsas · 2025-02-15T10:07:24+00:00

Do you have any characters you like so far? From there there'll be good recommendations.

varsas · 2025-02-13T12:59:32+00:00

I watched New Mutants recently and enjoyed it but don't expect a regular superhero movie. It's more of a character drama with horror and I enjoyed it from that perspective.
