I'll just lurk and see where things go from here, and if it takes off I'll jump in.TRobbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14807001667492289746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-70168756668019260322013-02-26T17:02:55.933-05:002013-02-26T17:02:55.933-05:00Lol what else have you heard about Morbius?

I've heard enough mixed reviews of Morbius to hold off, for now.<br /><br />Of the four fence-sitting books I mentioned above, the only one I think I'll get (and I'm shocked to say it) is Nova. I am not a fan of Marvel's cosmic characters, but this seems like a good jumping on point, and the story tickled my fancy. Cool beans.TRobbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14807001667492289746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-7829703704405800652013-02-25T17:58:00.035-05:002013-02-25T17:58:00.035-05:00Fair enough.

I have no experience with the character, though I do think his name is stupid.<br /><br />I'm actually missing my Wolverine fix dude, haha. He's present in a lot of books, but the only one I'm reading where I think they are developing the character is Uncanny Avengers. I don't have experience with Cornell, but I hear he's good, and I love Alan Davis on art. Here's hoping that series turns out well.TRobbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14807001667492289746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-7928949297145609322013-02-25T17:54:56.991-05:002013-02-25T17:54:56.991-05:00Thanks man.

I always liked the character (back from the Spiderman Animated Series, lol), so I think I will give this a look.TRobbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14807001667492289746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-51863718476326976982013-02-25T00:56:29.039-05:002013-02-25T00:56:29.039-05:00Hey TRobb, just do ya know, I enjoyed Morbius, I l...Hey TRobb, just do ya know, I enjoyed Morbius, I liked the first issue more but this one was solid, I'd probably have given it a 7.5 or an 8 if i reviewed it.Jason Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07796190974001777556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-25997176929955476552013-02-23T14:08:15.836-05:002013-02-23T14:08:15.836-05:00Nah, I can't say I'm interested in Savage ...Nah, I can't say I'm interested in Savage Wolvie, TRobb... I haven't even added the Cornell Wolverine series yet and I like Cornell's writing!

Not thrilled by the concept, but I was thinking of getting this on a whim, while I wait for the Cornell/Alan Davis Wolverine volume to come out.TRobbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14807001667492289746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-63943332545669749292013-02-21T22:36:04.393-05:002013-02-21T22:36:04.393-05:00Couldn't agree more, JW.

And I never knew about the cat! I loved her sending the guy with the cat and saying it was a top secret mission.Jason Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07796190974001777556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-80335511603855079742013-02-21T21:23:44.287-05:002013-02-21T21:23:44.287-05:00JT, I just read "Captain Marvel" #9 and ...JT, I just read "Captain Marvel" #9 and effing loved it. I mean, sure, it was a little trite to have Frank turn out being the guy running the NGO and it's a little ridiculous that Carol is always flying him around the place, but, man, I just thought DeConnick got the "day in the life" story down pat in this one.

I picked up cap #4, daredevil #23, TMNT #19, Avengers #6, Superior #4, Nova #1, X-o manowar #10, and Ind. Hulk #4. Looking forward to all of your reviews on the book that we 3 picked up. Especially cap, hulk, superior and nova. Most curious about Nova and cap this week. With the cliffhanger of cap 3 that book has got to be getting crazy! Hulk has been great each month, and superior is kind of teetering for me. I like the book, but I just don't love it yet... As for Nova, I know it is loeb and his recent writing has been meh... but Ed mcguiness on art! and I am curious how this will tie in to the cosmic real specifically GOTG. Always, enjoy your comics guys! I hope that I will...Bill Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13281552208033079811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-30276291147525773882013-02-20T16:23:26.908-05:002013-02-20T16:23:26.908-05:00Cool, you guys are getting a lot of the books I...Cool, you guys are getting a lot of the books I'm on the fence for.
