    I have no clue what is going on in Infinity Inc.

    I get the feeling the book will be canceled pretty soon

    Isn't it just an 8-part mini?

    Nope, it's an on-going.

    it's being too weird for its own good. I mean, a boy who's power is to turn into a superpowered girl? This isn't Doom Patrol, Milligan.

    Maybe it'll pick up once the team actually forms, but it doesn't look like that's happening anytime soon.

    No

    Plus it's 48 pages as opposed to the standard 22, so it's like it's over two issues!

    So, re: Illuminati,
    does this mean they now have the Space gem?

    That's a good question. The thing is, I kinda figured that he was the Skrull like a week ago. It made the most sense. The question is how long has he been, and what affect does it have on books where he was a prominent character? Was that really him that got beat up in WWH? Was he forcibly replaced, or did the Skrulls take advantage of a situation that got him out of the picture?
    More importantly, was that him in Silent War? Are the Inhumans totally compromised now?

    wwtMask on
    When he dies, I hope they write "Worst Affirmative Action Hire, EVER" on his grave. His corpse should be trolled.

    My "WTF GODDAMNIT BLARGLEBLARGLERAAAAAAGH!" moment of the week was from Tranquility: Armageddon.
    I'll be damned if they didn't just stealth cancel the book, they STEALTH RETCONNED IT TOO. Armageddon basically gave them an excuse to completely excise Tranquility from the Wildstorm universe, as if they were never there at all. If this doesn't translate into them letting Simone take the book elsewhere, and I never get another Tranquility story, I'm going to to be filled with impotent rage. :x

    They're gonna break down your door and tear up your comic and Tranquility back issues too. Then you'll never know if there ever really was a Tranquility, or if it was just a wonderful dream.

    Man, I wish they would, then I wouldn't have to forever lament the loss of this awesome book and bitch at you guys for not buying it. That's right, I blame all of you for it's demise.

    Woo, being social pariahs amongst comic book nerds! I think that technically makes us cool (in the way that adding 1 to negative infinity makes a number that's technically closer to zero). Hi 5!

    you're wrong and all of you who beat off to his skinny white girl fascination disguised as women empowerment can go find a real woman.

    When you say "real", do you just mean fat? Because that's all the word seems to mean when used in that context.

    Surely skinny white girls are real women too.

    I see nothing wrong with skinny white girl fascination. Or skinny black girl. Or, you know, generally attractive girls. Basically, if there are some hot girls involved, I can probably go along with the story.

    Skrul...Uh I mean BreakWorld peeps find him and try to torture info out of him. They threaten to torture Wolverine but we are reminded, just like every fucking comic Scott and Logan have been in together for the last 17 years, they don't like each other. He Optic Blast the place, one panel shows the blast from outside of the building and he ends with "To me, my X-Men" because Jean I mean Emma linked everyone up. We also have more stupid ass scenes with Buffy I mean Kitty.
