The Future is NOW!
1. This is NOT a reboot - All the decades of history in the Marvel Universe is still intact (well barring the wedding which shall not be named, but thats old news). This continues directly from what has come before.
2. It is spread out - In October we will see 1 new series, and after that every week we will see new jumping on points (either new or returning series) with new creative teams under the Marvel NOW! banner through February. So no having to buy tons of #1 issues in one month.
3. Not everything is new - More recent series like Captain Marvel, Hawkeye, Daredevil, and others will not be starting with fresh #1 issues. Only stories that fit with a true new start will be restarted with Marvel NOW!
OUT NOW!

ah ok, sorry bout that. As for the images, no prob. Ill cut down to the ones that havent released yet, and just link to the others.
yeah or what you said.
Just saying.
Wii U NNID: MegaSpooky
standouts for me have been Avengers and Thor: God of Thunder
though the only one I have disliked is Thunderbolts
And Guardians is ???
Seems Thunderbolts not being good is almost universal at this point. Just Dillion fanboys and people who like forty dialouge box deadpool defending it.
// Switch: SW-5306-0651-6424 //
So, basically read everything Hickman?
// Switch: SW-5306-0651-6424 //
Uncanny X-Men and Iron Man are skippable if you really can't stand Land art
but Journey Into Mystery, and the Beta Ray Bill: Godhunter mini are a must
I really liked his Ares mini as well
// Switch: SW-5306-0651-6424 //
Wii U NNID: MegaSpooky
I got the hardcover for 25 bucks from an online discount seller
I definitely like having a tablet more and more, especially since my bookshelves are full to bursting these days. I especially like the weekly free issues and .99 sales.
That plus Ex Nihilo seeming to have some clashing ideals with Aleph and Abyss being weird has me excited for where Hickman takes these characters.
yeah the Garden are new villains
Speaking of, Secret Warriors is on sale at comiXology for $1/issue for the next 24 hours.
Sonofab-
I don't have an excuse now.
// Switch: SW-5306-0651-6424 //
... Is that Bryan Lee O'Malley? Has he done anything previous for Marvel or DC?
He might have done a thing for Strange Tales, I can't remember.
Noh-Var
Kate touched Clints junk.
holy cow
although now that I check, that's about half the size of the New 52 omnibus
also, looking at the NOW Dark Avengers arc
man, Parker, I love you but are you really throwing the team into an alternate reality right after the time travel arc that lasted way too long?
I mean I love your Exiles a ton but not every book needs to be like that
