It's real damn annoying that people **** about it so much until it happens then ignore it completely.

Ugh.

For some reason the paperback is already on Amazon even though it's 6 months off so I'm already jumping on that train.

He's off T.H.U.N.D.E.R Agents! And there's a mini or two that will be done by then. How many books will he have come November? Morning Glories, Iron Man 2.0, this, and ???

IDK man, sometimes it feels like he has too much to work with doing 3-4 books a month, so he just shoots them out and off we go.

And c'mon, I thought we all knew to read Bendis in trade. That's the only way his stories work.

Is it? Awesome. How'd DC manage that? He's on a Marvel exclusive, but was allowed to finish up his DC work. Not that I'm complaining.

IDK man, sometimes it feels like he has too much to work with doing 3-4 books a month, so he just shoots them out and off we go.


I don't think Morning Glories has suffered at all, but I don't really care for his War Machine. If he's writing four books a month and the only one that suffers is Iron Man 2.0, I can live.

And then Siege throws that all away when Asgard gets f***ed up and Broxton gets f***ed up along with it.

Not unexpected, since I suppose the people voting are the people buying the comics, and Marvel has an edge on DC in the sales department.

Still, I might have given them the video game one. Arkham Asylum is godlike

and DC rightfully won the TV one. Yay DCAU
