Yeah, I was thinking Thunderbolts, or some of the other new series' but TBolts is about to get bogged down in Shadowland, and I'm trying to avoid swamping him.
I'm gonna give DC a go with Booster Gold, because he's a fun character, and possibly the new X-Men/Vampire stuff, as that looks vaguely self contained even if it getting advertised across alot of books.

The Bolts are about to be in Shadowland? I thought they were doing a crossover thing with Avengers Academy....somehow. Also, anybody got the upcoming list for this week? |

So, trivia question for all y'all. Who's had the most costumes over the years? (And before you ask, I don't know. That's why I raise the question.) Wasp, hands down. Our Handbook entry on her included something like 100 different costumes she's worn. |

A thought I just had upon reading his TV Tropes article(and yes, this character is apparently notable enough to deserve one), but when was the last time any writer used Sleepwalker as a character? I really, really miss that guy.

Okay, so I just read Avengers Prime #2... and I'm confused.
Over in Thor, Hela has been presented as having set up shop in Mephisto's realm and is calling on Thor for aid against some Asgardian-eating zombie ladies.
But in Avengers Prime, she's taking over the rest of the 9 realms since Asgard is on Earth, and it looks like her and Thor are about to go toe-to-toe.
It doesn't really make a lot of sense to me, especially since both stories take place right after the end of the Siege story.
But, oh well. Enchantress is involved, and that's good enough to make things better.

Hi, My name is Bendis, I think my stories take precedent over everyone and don't give a damn about anyone else's stories or developments. I write my way, and if you don't like it, tough, cos I'm Bendis!

Okay. Secret Warriors. Can we please just rename this book "The Adventures of Nick Fury" or something at this point? It's pointless to have a title like that, then not feature the Secret Warriors team AT ALL during an issue.

Eh... it may be filler, and a continuity mess, but at least it's good. Confusing a bit, given what's happened in other series, but still good if taken for what it is. |

I dunno if anybody else reads Red Robin but Tim Drake may be becoming one of the most insane characters in the DCU {Spoiler}Vicki Vale was compiling evidence that was going to out the entire Bat-family so Tim staged a hit on himself and when Red Robin was trying to stop the assassin, "Tim Drake" (actually turned out to be Miss Martian playing him) got shot. After some faked X-Rays, everybody now believes that he got spinal cord damage and gave a press conference with leg braces and metal crutches talking about the long road of rehab ahead of him. Dick asked him if he was planning on carrying out the rouse of being crippled for a whole year and Tim said he'd do it for as long as it takes. |
