Have fun with Apocalypse but just so you know, that "Apocalypse War" stuff is not really a crossover. It is just three individual Apocalypse stories going on at the same time through all three X books. You can read them out of order and in any order you wish as each title is a story in itself.  |

Well bummer. Thanks for the heads up though. Good to know I can concentrate on each story if I choose. |

I have been trying to think if there was any connection to them. Like at the end each book the story tied in somehow, but damn if I can remember. I really do't think so, but maybe there is some small thing ... or heck, some large thing I just breezed right over  I didn't concentrate too hard on the Extraordinary one as I was not really enjoying that book at the time so maybe I did miss something . I think I enjoyed the "All-New" one the best, though none of them were really great for me. Hope you dig them all or at least find you enjoyed the time, however!!! |

They are not inter connected. I read 2 of the 3 and they didn't play into each other at all.just enjoy it straight through.

Well since you didn't volunteer the information  ... whad'ya think of those Apocalypse arcs? EDIT - and come to think of it, how ya liking Reborn? As for me, I am absolutely ripping through my comic reading this week. Captain America #8 - a pretty cool 'alternate history' continuation. Captain America #9 - Not a bad issue, but holy hell this was dialog heavy. I could have read at least 2 more titles had it not been for this one . And yeppers, that is it.  |

Well since you didn't volunteer the information ... whad'ya think of those Apocalypse arcs? You know - I'm really glad they kept them as three separate contained stories in each title. I found all three enjoyable without a "Big Event" tainting them. Even the Extraordinary X-Men (the weakest of the three) was decent. They were three nice stories that I liked.
EDIT - and come to think of it, how ya liking Reborn?
I....like it, I think. It's still a little confusing but as I move through each issue I find something new I like. For example - , cracks me up. I think by the end of the first arc I'll have a better sense of whether I want to keep going or just put it away as a one arc story. |

Magnus Robot Fighter was a surprise find for me. I had downloaded issue one ages ago as a freebie but never read it. While reading RAI, I found out that RAI was originally a backup story in what must have been the original Magnus. I opened this up to see if the RAI backup story was there but it was not. But I did discover it was written by Fred Van Lente whose work in Archer & Armstrong and Bloodshot I love. So I gave this a try and I really like it. Issues 0 - 4 are free if your a Comixology Unlimited member (which I am). The rest of this series runs $1.99 for each issue - the series is only 12 issues. Definately getting the rest of this - big thumbs up from the Jeff. Black Monday Murders - I'll come back to this after I finish all four issues. |

I know I said I'd wait until I finished the Black Monday Murders but I just finished issue 2 and I CAN'T WAIT!
Wow. What a fascinating series. There are so many layers to this onion and Hickman does a phenomenal job of peeling it in just two issues. I LOVE this story. There is NO WAY this ends well for our protagonist!
If you haven't started this - pick it up now! So far - well worth any price!

Wow, you're reading those "trades in comic form" pretty fast  Are you reading it all or just the main story? I didn't read any of the back matter of issue #1. I also thought it was going to be done after issue #4, and had plans on reading it in its entirety when #4 came out but then I heard there are more issues coming so I will wait until it's complete. Glad you like it that puppy. Be a shame to read all that and not like it. EDIT - Got through a couple more Marvel issues - Captain America #10
Mighty Thor #15
Uncanny Avengers #18
Uncanny Avengers #19
Unworthy Thor #4 |
