    You know, I seem to be the only person on the forum that actually likes it, but it seems to have pretty solid sales numbers, which points to a decent chance for an ongoing.

    From this blog

    41. OMEGA FLIGHT
    04/07 Omega Flight #1 of 5 - 71,205
    05/07 Omega Flight #2 of 5 - 57,239 (-19.6%)
    06/07 Omega Flight #3 of 5 - 55,695 ( -2.7%)

    While not spectacular, those seem like good numbers when I look at the monthly lists, and considering its a relaunching/rebranding of a property thats had a very chequered past.

    It's been months since issue 3 came out, I thought they'd stopped. It's crap so far. Bleh art, takes place in the Heroes Reborn universe that nobody cares about, and Onslaught is reduced to mindless crushkilldestroy guy who has to possess people to do any real damage. It's all going to end with him not doing anything interesting at all. They never should've brought him back in the first place if this is all he's going to do.

    Starlord preview looks good, though.

    Very good.

    I'm really looking forward to all of these minis, although I'm still not sure about Wraith. But his comic has Ronan in it, so it's more good than bad I suppose.

    Three hits in a row.

    Has Immortal Iron-Fist been that good for the past six issues? Because I may have some searching through the back-issue shelves to do...

    Yes.

    The TPB of #1-6, "The Last Iron Fist" will be released in October, and for $15.

    I have to say, this preview for Image's Lucha Libre has my interest piqued. It's basically about a world occupied by crime-fighting luchadores who live in East LA. Apparently the book will contain five stories per issue, all taking place in the same universe, written by the same author, but each drawn by a different artist to give each story a distinctive flair.

    At the same time as the current New Avengers story arc. The plane crashed because of Ultron's EMP blast.

    Immortal Iron Fist is one of the best books around. Written by Brubaker and Matt Fraction, mostly drawn by David Aja, with other artists drawing bits and pieces (always in a different time period from the main "present-day" Danny Rand stuff), it is so good. The writing is good, the art is good... It is really a great comic book.

    So then where does WWH take place? Afterwards? I'm guessing WWH is technically somewhat in the near future, because if you look at WWH vs. X-Men, Iceman, Rogue, Mystique, Lady Mastermind and the Omega Sentinel are all missing.

    Newsarama's put up previews for three of the Outsiders: Five Of A Kind one-shots coming out in August. It's a first look at the Nightwing/Boomerang, Katana/Shazam and Metamorpho/Aquaman issues. Newsarama also added in at no extra cost a look at the next battle in the Corps-War in the form of GLC #13, kicking off the fight between Soranik and Sinestro.

    http://www.newsarama.com/dcnew/aug07/previews/outsiders.html

    Newsarama's given something for the Marvel fans to chew over as well in the form of the cover for the first issue of Marvel Comics Presents. That can be found here.

    It's definitely, definitely after the current New Avengers story, since Echo and Ronin were in WWH 2. After that, though, who can say.

    Extra truth if Wolverine is one of the X-men involved.

    I can see it now.

    The Thunderbolts are called in, thinking that there's some "real" threat around. Scorpion sees Brock, laughs at the sickly man, and mockingly says "Hah! THIS is the super threat? Some guy who can barely stand up? He ain't gonna put up much of a fight..."

    Then Mac feels his "skin" crawl, as the symbiote splits off and begins to reattach to Brock.
    "No, but WE will."
    And Scorpion just stares with an "Oh shit" look on his face.
