Marvel Universe vs. Avengers #1, Maberry centers it around Hawkeye, who shows what the more street level heroes are doing during the plague, including a fight Squirrel Girl doesn't win, plus everyone's favorite villain struts his stuff:

    that Joker is dreadful.

    Robots in Disguise #10, shit is getting weird with time travel and universe spanning plots. Have a nice looking panel (with an ominous detail)

    FF #611 moved Hickman's run to my #3 FF run of all time, ahead of Simonson, behind only Byrne and Lee/Kirby. Nice work, Hickman.

    Uncanny Avengers was good, too.

    I agree a lot, I put Hickman's run as #2 behind Byrne and above Waid's now, as this last issue shows how Doom gets to literally play god and is always stubborn:

    Future Val and Reed and Grandad save him from his own world, since Reed owed him for holding off the Celestials for a bit:

    fantasticfour611d_zps9461dc26.jpg

    It's a run that always had a heart to it, and despite the excessive hype around Johnny "dying" Hickman was able to overcome that and really do better and better things with his run, getting better and better each month. Usually runs don't end this well, and I don't expect FF #23 to crap out, so good job Hickman, bring on Avengers.

    The only thing that sucks about Hickman's run, and it's not even his fault, is how Children's Crusade was this crappy wrench thrown in to diminish how well Hickman characterizaed Doom.

    Children's Crusade is like Grounded, or Morrison's Doom Patrol - its really easy to pretend it didn't happen.

    But the parts of Grounded Chris Roberson wrote are really good given that he was handed a pile of shit and told to sculpt David. And pretty much did.

    Even after DC also shitcanned that Muslim superhero issue.

    Why would you want to pretend Morrison's Doom Patrol didn't happen?

    It was so fun.

    Doom Patrol is one of the best comics, you goose.

    Yeah, Fantastic Four #611 was fantastic! Hickman's run of F4 would be my favorite (I haven't read the others though so heh). But for a person who didnt really give a damn about the main universe F4, into a fan, his run will be one of my favorite comic runs ever. I'll just add his last page Letter to everyone.

    Ultimate Comics X-Men #17 continues to be the best Ultimate book. I love what wood is doing with it, and love all the secondary / side mutants he is adding. Husk/Iceman attempt to free a mutant camp, and are saved by Armor!

    Uncanny Avengers #1 was a pretty good first issue. It set up most of the main cast pretty well (except Thor). Cassaday's art was great as well (except for Cap's helmet). I really like the cliffhanger and the premise of it. I also thought the Rogue/Scarlet Witch convo was pretty all right, if not a little ham fisted.

    Issue two of Uncanny Avengers should start with someone telling him he has just ruined whatever they might have been able to do with that
    brain
    because he felt the need to just pull it out with his hands and wave it around.

    It's a bit funny cause Widow straight up tells everyone that Eric is a Descendant, but Hawkeye really needs a nap or something

    Came across this, not really comic per-say, but has Ellis and Gaiman in it so close enough I figure!

    I don't want to alarm you, but your feed is actually going backwards through time. I just hope you harness this for good. If not I have a sports almanac for sale.
