THE END OF SPIDERMAN!

So we can assume he dies and truth be told it might do them some good and upp... there's a new movie coming out, scrap that idea!

But joking aside, they might kill him off this time and I say good because spidey needs some rest after nearly 4 years of crappy mainstream universe comics. Also he needs to quit the avengers! And so does Bendis.

I wish Deadpool would be dead, sigh.

That looks pretty cool, Tendril. Kind of reminds me of Tarantula's costume which I dig a lot.

I've lost almost all faith in Marvel. Bringing back the human torch after only ten months of being dead just stinks of a company thats afraid to move forward and take any risks in its characters.

I do still enjoy some of the Spider-man mythos because of how integral it was to my childhood, and I still enjoy Secret Warriors and Moon Knight, but Marvel has just really lost its ability to sit in my good graces.

You cannot have a company that is simultaneously a storytelling endeavor. The two will ultimately be at odds.

The only Marvel mainstream book(s) I read at the X-Books. Theyre almost 100% self contained. The crossovers like CW, SI, WWH - just dont seem to matter in the long run with X-Men.

I think I'm going to cave in and start off where I last left off with Hulk. YES, I'm going to read all of Loeb's crappy Hulk stuff but hey I kind of feel like reading Hulk again and I haven't picked up any new hulk comic since 09. So yeah, Two years of saying no to current hulk not bad really.

I forgot why I stopped reading Marvel cosmic stories - they keep killing people or changing them..

Moondragon - changed and dead.
Phyla-Vell - first Quasar, then Captain Marvel then avatar of death...jeez
Drax - dead (again)
Adam Warlock - changed to a 'magic' user then turned evil then killed.
Nova - dead.
Star-Lord - dead.
Vulcan - dead.
Black Bolt - dead.

I hope this new Denetarian Nova isnt some new New 52 Rip off/Point One loser.

Actually Phyla-Vell was an avatar of Oblivion, not Death, under the name of Martyr. Then killed releasing Thanos from his cocoon in Guardians#24. Get your facts staright sir. Besides, on the subject of Nova(Richard Rider) and Star-Lord being dead, the circumtances of their last appearance in the THANOS IMPERATVE finale leaves the door open for a return. Black Bolt I believe made a return recently in FF. Emperor Vulcan, the Big Bad of the hellacool WAR OF KINGS, is still MIA. But a lot of X-fans seem to like it that way with the third Summers Brother. Although I wouldn't be opposed to a return. But with the the rather sudden cancellation of NOVA and GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY, there were still some storylines left hanging. One, was at the end of NOVA#25, a member of the Nova Corp, a Shi'Ar named Malic Tarcel, was captured and tortured by Emperor Vulcan and the Imperial Guard. After they had their jollies with reblous Shi'Ar member, they left him hanging. But then coming to his rescue was Garthan Saal, the Xandarian who at one time went bugnuts from possessing the power of the entire Nova Corps under the nom de' gure, SUPER NOVA(http://marvunapp.com/Appendix3/novasaal.htm). Who had thought to me his end with Nova Corps in the ANNIHILATION WAVE , now back as Super-Nova, coming to free Tarcel. As far as I know, that plotline is still hanging. Also, in the course of War of Kings, Darkhawk, or at least his body, was part of an order that kept things status quo in the Shi'Ar Empire known as Fraternity of Raptors. And in the course of the War, Darkhawk's body was usurped by a loyal member of the Fraternity, and used to assassinate Princess Lilandra. Thus putting the blame on Chris Powell/Darkhawk when he regained control, but Nova got things straightened out later. But the Franternity still has its hooks in the Shi'Ar Empire both covertly, using illusion generating technology one member has Emperor Kal'lark/Gladiator ear in the disguise of a close advisor to him. And is also spreading some discention among the ranks of Shi'Ar Senate towards Earth. Other members of the Fraternity are also members of the Shi'Ar Imperial Guard quite publically as well.

Im about to start on the War of Kings TPB that has Secret Invasion: War of Kings, War of Kings #1-6 and Who Will Rule?

So far, it's not feeling as MASSIVE as Annihiliation. Ive read all the GotG books and the TPB Warriors leading upto it. Im thinking about waiting til my Nova 23-29 comics come before reading it. But I think theyre trying to do TOO much. I do love the Darkhawk story. I felt his 'origin' was stupid in the old books.

After I catch up on WoK and RoK, Im going to hed back and get the Thor comics Iim missing and then go back to my X-Books. Thor is getting added to my sub list while Teen Titans and Superboy are getting dumped..
