Ha, no. Sadly. I have been killing my time with Image books. I am waaaay behind on my Tie-In readings. Need to resolve that an put the "i" books down for just a few. I have so many of them now. Like ... We Stand On Guard is off to a great start!!!! Nialbiter, Birthright, Invisible Republic, Deadly Class, Copperhead, Low, Revival, Saga, Sons of the Devil, Southern Bastards, Southern Cross, Lazarus ... JEEEZ!!! All so good. Some I have only read a balloon or two but I can tell I like it. Marvel, save me!!!! (Will get back to SW this week-end, damn it!

I hear you. I've been sucking up all my free time on MU. Even my kid is complaining about me always being on my phone.

1872 #1
Pick this up. It's a lot of fun. Basically it's the Marvel Universe set in 1872 in the town of Timely (The original name of Marvel). A lot of little things like the town being set next to the Kirby river make it fun. Town Sheriff - Steve Rogers. Town drunk - Tony Stark. And his drink of choice? Wolverine whiskey. Mayor Fisk and Govenor Roxxon are the antagonists.
I like this.

I did as well, though after reading issue #2 ... Other than that I have enjoyed it ...

Got the Spidey Renew your Vows #3 and Future Imperfect #3.
Peter David is obviously a far greater caliber of writer than Slott appears to ever have the hope of attaining. I have stopped my preorders of these 2 series at #3. However, being that PAD is PAD, I think I'll still pick up the remaining floppies of Future Imperfect.
As for Renew...I still follow with little interest into this storyline. Annie is not Mayday, and I guess I just don't care to get to know her.

I know !!! I am soooo far behind. Spending over a week in Vegas hasn't helped the cause. Plus Dave is gonna have a huge stack waiting for me on my desk at home I just know it. I have even stopped reading most of them for now, stopped reading a majority of the X related books all together (most were just not good at all). Maybe we can finally have that HRead-Through I've always wanted when these books start hitting the MU. We pick 3 books a week and talk about them three books and move on each week. Making a much delayed event even longer on the re-read. HAHAHAHA

Well, Unlimited just put up the last 2 issues of Avengers/New Avengers before Secret Wars broke out, so I may at Secret Wars #1 in just a month!!!
Also: what in the hell really happened lol?! Hickman's scope of planning was so gigantically BIG.

So, with MU, I've now read first issues of Thors (very cool!) A-Force (eh, fine), but Planet Hulk and something else didn't make me feel anything about the titles to want to read more or "discover" their world.

I liked Planet Hulk. Give the second issue a shot. 1872 is fun too. Old Man Logan is a good title for a tour of this world also. Thors is my favorite. The rest are not must reads and by all that is holy, don't waste any time on the Ultimate book!
