Shocking Twist Incoming:Wolverine was never a mutant! Yeah, he was an experiment by the High Evolutionary, who tried to evolve a wolverine into a human. Too silly for anyone to take seriously, Right?

ok, guys. this is something I don't do often, but I could use a few suggestions about an indy series or 2 to start reading. I'm already reading Chew, Rat Queens and Saga so no need to suggest those. I'm mostly into horror, noir and weird science stuff these days. no capes, I already have enough superhero books I've enjoyed Autumnlands: Tooth & Claw so far.

Shocking Twist Incoming:Wolverine was never a mutant! I remember Marvel once put out a story that said that Wolverine was actually the exact opposite of a mutant - he's what humanity would've naturally evolved into had the Celestials not mucked around with our DNA in the past.

...already reading that one too. perhaps I shoulda made a longer list lol. I think that covers everything I'm currently reading. Revival is pretty solid horror. A couple of new books I'm reading THE TITHE: a group is knocking over megachurches all across the US. Pretty great concept that has a fresh 'heist' style to it. GIANT DAYS: hilariously written book. Like Undeclared or Fresh Meat but wilder. BITCH PLANET: terrific sci-fi/sploitation comic. Bad ass stuff, really. THE FUSE: basically does procedural detective stories better than TV by FAR. Plus its set on a huge space station. LUTHER STRODE: They're on the third volume now, but find the first two if you can. Legend of Luther Strode & Strange Talent of Luther Strode. This book is hyper violent but filed great characters.

Shocking Twist Incoming:Wolverine was never a mutant! One picture they showed a smaller Wolverine with 2 claws... which means X-23 is going to dress up like him... also Old Man Logan was shown as well.

Read the preview for Spider-Gwen {Spoiler}It's taken me a bit, but I actually think I prefer Em Jay over Gwen...funny how Marvel can make her out to be an absolute bitch and yet she still comes off with more personality and dimension than Gwen, who basically is all Peter's quips and nothing else

It's been obvious X-23 was going to be the new Wolverine for months, and the Wolverines series set it up.
Good. She is a great character who deserves a push.

There's a second teaser circulating showing a bunch of new characters, which includes a lady Wolverine standing next to Old Man Logan. Said character also has two claws per hand, so that should clarify who it is.

I kind of miss Daken. Dark Reign/Dark Avengers period Daken, though.

So it appears Bendis could be staying on Guardians and will be tackling Kitty and Ben on the team. More to come this weekend.

{Spoiler} I've put it in spoiler tags in case there are Secret Wars spoilers, but the post SW-MU looks to have some changes and maybe some refocussing. Plus a character I dislike sticking around.

I'm kind of excited, but there is also a lot of apprehension. I shall miss the 616, and I think the main thing that is making me apprehensive about all this is that Marvel are just making wholesale changes, and are then going to start a whole bunch of series in medias res, noting that 8 months has past since the end of SW.
I'd be much more.....happy.....secure.....less apprehensive......if I felt that we were going to get a storyline developed build around all the changes, rather than just BANG, it's 8 later months go, go with it!

Darkseid war finally gets underway (after 2 months of the "meh" convergence) and it's awesome so far, Grail is a beast.
But then it's DC so I'll be the only one who thinks that.

I've preferred Convergence to Secret Wars so far. Short, simple, and has an optimistic ending.
Fully expecting Marvel to be just nothing but "all our heroes are tumblr twits and douchebags" as per f&*ing usual.
