Title: Re: May 2023 Solicitations Post by: Jeff on February 27, 2023, 11:22:56 PM Avengers #1 - Jed MacKay? An Avengers team with Vision and Scarlet Witch back on it? I'll at least give it a try!
Groot #1 - I would have said "pass" but then I saw "Dan Abnett". He's hit or miss on his own without Lanning but I'll try the first issue and see what I think. Fantastic Four #7 - I loved issue 1 so I can't imagine me being off this. Plus this is the oversized "Issue 700" anniversary issue. Fury #1 - Another one I'd normally pass on but it's written by Al Ewing. Dangit. I'll be trying it. X-Men Red #11 - Another Al Ewing book that's hit or miss for me. I'm sure I'll still be on it. Immortal X-Men #11 - The best X-book out right now. Wouldn't miss an issue of this. Wolverine #33 - Beast vs Wolverine - I'm in. X-Force #40 - Enjoying this team in spite of Logan's absence. X-Men #22 - If Duggan's Orchis arc is as good as his Vault arc was I'll be there. Bishop: War College #4 of 5 - I cannot lie. I'm interested. X-23: DEADLY REGENESIS #3 (OF 5) - Hmmmm. Might try the first issue out. NEW MUTANTS LETHAL LEGION #3 (OF 5) - Count Nafaria? I'm pulled in..... Rogue & Gambit #3 of 5 - Of course I'll give the first issue a shot. Doctor Strange #3 - More Jed MacKay AND Dormammu? - Yes please. Deadpool #7 - I liked issue 1. I'm sure I'll still be here. Daredevil #11 - One of the best Marvel books right now. Love what Chip Zdarsky's doing here. Joe Fixit #5 of 5 - Always give Peter David a try. Always. Punisher #12 - Could this be the last issue? I'm generally enjoying this so I'll still be here. Adam Warlock: Rebirth #2 of 5 - I haven't read a Ron Marz book in years. This sounds like it might be fun. Plus Genis-Vell! Speaking of Genis-Vell - I didn't see his book listed in here! Is it gone already? Or was it a mini? I think it might be just a mini. Title: Re: May 2023 Solicitations Post by: Jimmy T on February 28, 2023, 01:46:34 AM Genis Vell was just a mini
Title: Re: May 2023 Solicitations Post by: Jimmy T on February 28, 2023, 01:52:23 AM I'm looking through these solicits and there is so much JUNK symbiot Venom, Venom-related, Carnage, -Carnage related titles. Like...my opinion...that's pathetic. That stuff isn't that interesting.
Title: Re: May 2023 Solicitations Post by: Jeff on February 28, 2023, 02:39:41 AM Genis Vell was just a mini Lol - I was just coming to report that as I just finished reading issue 5 and realized that was it. At least we’ll see him again soon in Adam Warlock! Title: Re: May 2023 Solicitations Post by: Perry on February 28, 2023, 06:45:43 PM I'm looking through these solicits and there is so much JUNK symbiot Venom, Venom-related, Carnage, -Carnage related titles. Like...my opinion...that's pathetic. That stuff isn't that interesting. You bang on Venom all the time. I think he must've put his peanut butter in your chocolate or something... ;D But hey, I don't understand it either buddy. I guess somewhere out there in this big ole world there are a bunch of people that can't let the 90's go. :D (And I guess the LCS' thank them for it as they keep ordering the things) Wolverine #33 - Beast vs Wolverine - I'm in. I will try to stay on that long for Ryp's art and for the fact that I liked that one issue I read recently of Wolvie, more than ANY other single Percy issue that I have tried in the past. Was that issue a fluke or no? I don't know, but I will try to stay on to see this. Other than that one title, all I mainly see is stuff I have very little to no interest in (see Jimbo's post above ;D) from writers that I have either never heard of or I already know I don't like. Or, and more obvious here lately, art by the same. People I either don't like because their style sucks to me or, more the norm nowadays at Marvel, artists that I have never heard of prior to this solicitation. Hard to sell books when no-one knows anyone you have working for you or what they do know they are not liking. :-\ Hey Marvel editors, take a good writer and put him (or her) with a new artistic talent or take a great artist and put him (or, again, her) and put them with a new writer. Stop putting new with new and shitty with shitty!!! *Ahem* Anyway... I'm gonna 4, 3, 2 and 1 it with the solicit... My 4 'X' books - - X-Men - X-Men Red - Immortal X-Men - Wolverine (?) My 3 'D' books - - Doctor Strange - Daredevil - The "D"unisher :D :D My 2 "Oh what the hell, let's relive the past" books - - Joe Fix-It - Warlock My 1 true love book - - Fantastic Four That's about it for me :) |
