MOTW 09/18/2012 - Charles Barkley?

UltimateInferno

Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #15 Ganke has some ideas on how to get Miles back into the public favor.

Spider-Men #5 Then PEter gives some miles some more advice / his blessing.

Ultimate Comics Ultimates #15 has the primary ultimates team fighting the WASP drones on the west coast.

TexiKen

Atomic Robo: Flying She-Devils #3, Robo's Fight or Flight response needs some work:

Daredevil #18, a flaw from Bendis' great DD run reappears:

He hears Milla, who shows up on his radar and is acting all non-crazy.





The twist is that Milla is shown still locked up in a padded cell so someone is messing with Matt or he's gone crazy again, but hopefully Milla stays there forever.

Centipede Damascus

Dang, Waid. Way to use your continuity.

Re: Daredevil

What's wrong with Milla? It's been a while, but I remember generally liking her. Or is the flaw that she was made crazy? Because I'm pretty sure that came after Bendis left the book.

Balefuego

Yeah, Brubaker was the one who really fucked with her.

Elderlycrawfish

Atomic Robo was great this week. Adventures was a little on the weak side, but She-Devils was packed with action and fun.

WiseManTobes

This was in the letters page on Walking Dead 102, and I got a kick out of it, then I noticed who wrote it and laughed again.

The letter does contain spoilers tho if not caught up past 100

Steven Yeun is who plays Glenn on the show

JyrenB

I really like that I have no idea where Waid is going with a lot of the crazy things happening to Matt right now. It's fun to have a good mystery that we're not in on and doesn't fell cobbled together just to shock the reader.

Also, how can you mention this week's Ultimate Spider-Man and not mention

Mile's "Wesley Crushers" shirt later in the issue? Loved it.

TexiKen

I agree that Brubaker made it worse but

Milla never really had a hook that I found interesting. So she was blind, she still seemed really bland and the way she quickly became super love #1, even with the one year jump, was just a very bad spot on an other excellent run. It just really reaked of a creator shoving in their new creation into a position where you have to go super crazy to reverse it (which Brubaker did).

That's just me though, I've always been a Matt and Natasha fan, even the Dakota North thing would have been interesting. I do like the current setup Waid has with Kirsten, she comes across with much better parity being a lawyer.

Mr Pink

That Walking Dead bit is hilarious. It took me a second to put the name together.

SatanIsMyMotor

The Walking Dead also just happened to be a really good issue. Not much happened but I found Kirkman's writing to be a step up and even seemed like Adlard's art is improving.

I bet it would have had to do with a paper bag. :P

Hensler

Doctor Strange: Season One is best Season One yet.

Young Strange and Wong (with lots of hair!) are a great team.

Turambar

A week late but watcha gonna do

Venom continues to battle demons in the last issue before Minimum Carnage

This all looks like it's leading up to a Hell arc featuring Mephisto after MC and I'm super excited

Hellstrom says that one of the Hell-Lords is about to fall further than the others and become the true devil
Mephisto is preparing for this and has marked Hellstrom and Venom as two of his potential heirs

Dr. Chaos

Edit: woops. Wrong MOTW thread.

ANTVGM64

So now I need to get into Ultimate Spider-man again because shit was awesome. Are they still releasing the *huge* trade paperbacks that collect something like 24 issues at a time? I got the first 2, and I figure that's properly the most economical way to get myself caught up.

Centipede Damascus

As far as I can find on Amazon, Volume 3 is available, but volumes 4-11 are out of print, and volume 12 is only available in hardcover.

I don't know if they're planning on putting those collections back in print, but if you want to catch up now, you're probably better off just getting the individual collections.

ANTVGM64

Are they available digitally? I got this here fancy Ipad that could use some comics action.

Centipede Damascus

Oh yeah, definitely.

Its really about time that they made the pre-Ultimatum post-original series stuff available. That's sorta where I left off and its really getting annoying.

what issue numbers would those be?
they appear to have everything up to 128 and two annuals, ultimatum starting with 129

edit ooooh it looks like 134 to 152 is missing, that's post ultimatum and pre-death

edit again i forgot about requium

that is a lot of missing stuff

UltimateInferno

They have requium. They are only missing UCSM(vol 1) 1-15, 150-152

SightTDW

Yeah, its not a massive window, but I left off in the middle of UCSM vol. 1, so its pretty annoying to me.
