Nick Fury used that death to great advantage, he's a man with Vision.

Here's my more in depth thoughts on why I'm not really hyped about Marvel Now:

I was already trying to have a smaller pull list because of my deflation in enthusiasm and interest in most books, I can actually wait longer to pick up my monthlies without being on the edge now. I mean sure, I'm curious to what happens in Marvel and how characters I know evolve but it doesn't feel like I 'must' stay on top of things every week.

So this news of 'relaunched' books doesn't get my that excited, sure I'm enjoying Avengers vs X-Men (I still need to pick up issue 6 and 7) but I have no desire to go for the long haul on any of the new books so far unless the ones I already get end up getting relaunched (Uncanny X-Force, Deadpool, Amazing Spider-Man) If anything, I can just pick up a few trades at half price 2 or 3 months later and if I like it, keep buying the volumes over singles.

Really hate the Scarlet Spider costume from the "reboot" I guess. Only thing good about it are the eyes on the mask.

Just downloaded a couple apps. Marvel CoMics and Comixology. They look the same except one is Marvel only. Anyone using these?

The Destroyer 07-10-2012 03:13 AM

Don't bother with the Marvel app unless you just want to filter out the clutter of non-Marvel stuff, it's basically Comixology but only with Marvel titles. Also watch out if you're using it on a Kindle Fire, as apparently you can't buy any DC titles through that version of the app for some reason.

I like it as an app, big fan of how it converts comics to fit on my phone's screen and I really like the way it flows.

What I do hate them for is constantly putting great titles on sale. Like right now they've got a big Walking Dead sale on with the first 99 issues for $0.99 each (or £0.69 over here), last week they had a load of cheap recent Amazing Spider-Man and Ultimate Spider-Man titles on sale to tie in with the new film. It's getting to be constant "take my money!", which combined with the limited storage space on my phone is going to get annoying fast.

http://www.comixology.com/comics-sale keep an eye out there for new offers, generally new stuff every day or two

RP 07-10-2012 03:39 AM

The first Amazing Spiderman is free. Might take a gander. The search option is failing for some reason. Won't look up what I search.

The Destroyer 07-10-2012 12:34 PM

Strange. You can also find/buy stuff through their website and sync it your phone/tablet.

Aside from the Item 47 screening, it seems Marvel Studios is going to announce something big today. Or rather... something very small...

That is way too much gold on that armor.

Kalyx triaD 07-14-2012 03:31 PM

If they were gonna do that to the body, they should have inverted the helmet; red face gold head.

Lock Jaw 07-14-2012 03:38 PM

Yeah, kinda ugly. Not enough red. Hopefully just an "alt" and not what he wears for the majority of the film.

Fignuts 07-14-2012 05:58 PM

I like it.

Marvel Comic-Con Movie News (Source Newsarama):

The long-rumored Guardians of the Galaxy movie is official, and was announced Saturday evening at the Marvel Studios panel during Comic-Con in San Diego. The film is scheduled for release on Aug. 1, 2014.

Additionally, the full titles for the Captain America and Thor sequels were announced:

Test Footage from Ant-Man was shown, but no release date set.

On the Iron Man 3 front, it has been confirmed that Ben Kingsley is indeed The Mandarin.

Lock Jaw 07-14-2012 10:23 PM

Pumped for the Winter Soldier arc on the big screen.

Fignuts 07-15-2012 12:43 AM

Mad psyched for winter soldier, and for Thor 2. I said before, that I think that Hela would be my villain of choice for Thor 2, and going off that title, I'd say chances are good.

Fignuts 07-15-2012 12:50 AM

Jessica Biel will apparently be playing Viper in the new Wolverine flick.

She's got a great look for it, but I don't recall her ever being in a role as an antagonist. Hope she can pull it off, cause Viper is one of my favorite wolvie villains.

Kalyx triaD 07-15-2012 01:37 AM

That would make two Blade alumni getting into a Wolverine movie. Close nit group here.

Anthony Mackie rumoured to be in talks for the part of The Falcon in Cap 2.

Kalyx triaD 07-17-2012 12:14 AM

Does anybody else find it strange that Biel is going to be Madame Viper in The Wolverine, a chick with ties to Hydra?

Lock Jaw 07-17-2012 03:29 AM

Nah. They don't have to mention Hydra at all.

Kalyx triaD 07-17-2012 05:30 AM

It would be sort of an elephant in the room, no?

Kalyx triaD 07-17-2012 05:51 AM

Venom and Scarlet Spider team up to take on Carnage.

Fignuts 07-17-2012 11:36 AM

Hate that they redeemed the scarlet witch. I thought she would of made a great, long lasting addition to the avengers rogues gallery.


Love marvel, but sometimes they don't have the balls to stay the course. *cough* Xorn *cough*

Nope. Most of the general public will have no clue who Madame Viper is. So they won't be sitting around thinking it is weird that they don't mention Hydra.

Reavant 07-17-2012 04:48 PM

Theres a chance that they do mention hydra though... how cool would that be? remember if they had the time, they were going to put oscorp in the avengers

Lock Jaw 07-17-2012 05:50 PM

Says who

Kalyx triaD 07-17-2012 06:37 PM

Marvel/Disney admitted that they were in fact going to put the Oscorp building from Amazing Spider-Man in the New York during the Avengers final battle. I posted about it a few pages ago.

Kalyx triaD 07-17-2012 06:45 PM

I mean, I understand keeping your expectations low and taking things with a grain of salt, but this isn't Lady Deathstrike remixed as a female Wolverine - this is a character explicitly connected to an organization that played a major role in Marvel's Phase One. There should really be more speculation than what I've seen since this was announced.

In fact, people just sorta glossed over news of a direct fucking link between Sony's new Spidey-verse and Marvel/Disney's Movie-verse. And now a known Hydra villain is going to play a part in The Wolverine - a story very much based on the Japan arc, making Viper a delayed even off-tone inclusion.

Why was that?

The Destroyer 07-18-2012 05:24 AM

Jessica Biel won't be playing her anyway, negotiations have fallen through.
