I've recently started reading comics again after a huge absence (Haven't read regularly since Civil War... although I picked up some of Superior Spider-Man and Superior Foes of Spider-Man). Currently reading Ms. Marvel, Secret Wars, Amazing Spider-Man (Just finished V3 and the new issue of V4) and catching up with past issues of Spider-Woman and Silk. Ms. Marvel is fantastic, already become one of my favourite ever comics. From what I understand, the universe is basically being rebooted once Secret Wars concludes? Well... has started been rebooted I guess with this weeks comics. From the looks of the All New, All Different line, as well as continuing the series I'm reading I'm probably going to pick up Jessica Jones, two of the Avengers series and probably an X-Men one. Anyway, a few questions if anyone can fill me in. Why Captain America is an old man now? What's the deal with the Inhumans, like why have they got a city on earth now? What's happening with the X-Men? Like, why in Secret Wars do people not seem to trust Cyclops and why did he have what I assume was the Phoenix Force? Has Wolverine not got his powers anymore? In one of the Ms Marvel issues he couldn't heal himself. Why did he lose his powers and is it a permanent loss? Are there any major events/happenings/deaths I should know about? the reboot thing was a big mis-nomer. they're getting rid of the Ultimate universe and stapling a couple things to 616 but it isn't a flat-out reboot like Flashpoint was.

Are there any major events/happenings/deaths I should know about? - Got the super-serum sucked out of him by a bad guy. Falcon is now Cap. - Not too keen on that. - It was in X-Men vs. Avengers, when Cyclops and four others got the Phoenix powers and went a bit crazy. - Wolverine is actually kind of dead now. In regard to the Inhuman thing, Attilan crashed to earth because of Black Bolt detonating a bomb while fighting Thanos, which led to new inhumans being awoken which led to the inhumanity event.

As long as that's all it is, I can live with that. The worst aspect of Power Rangers is when they'd interrupt whatever was going on, to do a Bulk and Skull bit. You could feel the entire episode screeching to a halt every time.

That Standoff story looks interesting, and I could see it spinning right into Civil War: Electric Boogaloo.

I have not given a toss about Cloak and Dagger since Maximum Carnage.

Cloak and Dagger have always been characters that have this very vocal, very loyal following that I just don't get.

Do Cloak and Dagger still have their powers switched?

You be surprised how many people like the show now From what I've seen, the latest USM seasons are miles ahead of the first one.

It's better than it has been, but you still get a lot more people moaning about it outside of Spidey cheerleaders/apologists.
