Me Too!

Ghost Rider, for giving me the biggest set of blue balls ever
And Punisher MAX for still being better than the Ennis run
And finally is the War Machine: Weapon Of SHIELD arc the lead-in to the title-change?
Because after flipping through it I want it to be true pretty badly

Basically, Tony has an automated message set up for Jim in the event that something really bad happens, and the invasion qualifies
So Jim flies to a space station that Tony had kept cloaked and off the books
He plugs his armor into said station
And the fucking station transforms into a giant suit of armor

Whoops, should've put this here.
Also, that spoiler was too tempting not to click. I am a huge sucker for moments like that, so I can't wait to see it for myself.
Is the title changing from Iron Man to War Machine because I'll get it if it is
But I have a hard time getting a book for just one arc because then I want to see what's next etc
And next thing you know I've bought the book for three years and I'm like "this sucks why did I start this again"
EDIT For the dude above me
This is like a giant robot
This is a fucking Transformer with the cockpit and Jim as the head
Yeah, it was slightly abrupt in issue form, but I loved
and the last page made me all misty and stuff. In strictly manly, hetero fashion, of course.
Grabbing that bitch next week

Was it just me, or did it seem like there was a plot gap somewhere? Obviously its a new writer and all that, but somehow the book just didn't gel with me. I sort of felt like we need another issue of Batman before this issue would make sense. I dunno. I didn't much like it.
Although the ending was rather...huh?
I dig this guy a lot more than even my favorite Ennis arcs
Mother Russia and Long Cold Dark were great
But something that's not just KILL FUCK DIE MAIM REPEAT is a nice change of pace and the dude knows what he's doing
Well, it's post-RIP, and we don't know how RIP ends so, yeah, I imagine it is pretty confusing.
Also, Dixon was kicked off and that dude who wrote Underground (awful) was shoved in, and I imagine that doesn't help.

Anyhow, some good stuff this week.
In Atomic Robo, Robo has been tasked with assisting Allied troops during the 1943 invasion of Sicily. His mission? To destroy the Laufpanzers, Germany's so-called walking tanks. It could be going better.
In Billy Batson and the Magic of Shazam, Theo Adam, one-time champion of the wizard Shazam, has returned to Earth. He's begun engaging in petty delinquency in an attempt to coerce Billy Batson to tell him the magic word that will unleash Black Adam.
Really, Mike Kunkel's animation-influenced art is completely selling this book for me. All the little exaggerated faces and smooth transitions from one moment to another are just great. And it's only $2.25! If you're the kind of person that can enjoy all-ages books like Bone, there's no reason not to pick it up. And if you happen to be digging it, be sure to check out Kunkel's Herobear and the Kid.

Let me know when Thor stops being awesome! I couldn't be happier with how Marvel is finally giving him his due.
It's just so cute
Oh man, just finished SI:Thor. All kinds of awesome, Beta Ray Bill was badass, I loved the part with the firefighters. All in all it was a freaking awesome issue.
eh
hmmm
did you even read Valley Forge, Valley Forge?
It was a nice way to wrap up the whole thing but I was very eh on it
This is a very nice change of pace, still dark, still violent, but driven by more of a plot than say Mother Russia
Mother Russia went
Get into base
Get out of base
Frank fucks up the generals' plans
THE END
Likewise.
The harder the rain, honey, the sweeter the sun.
god damn
I suppose the decision to have the series continue on made that impossible, though.

You should read his novels. His description of the biker house in Troubleshooter is fucking spectacular.
He and another author who were announced as coming in after Ennis were authors I hadn't read. So as soon as I read about it, I checked out some of their books. Marvel picked some crazy awesome people to follow Ennis.
I want Charlie Huston on this bitch
The guy wrote one of my favorite stories of all time: Moon Knight's "The Bottom"
https://twitter.com/Hooraydiation
I seem to recall reading that they couldn't say he would, but they couldn't say he wouldn't either.
All of them
The first issue of Moon Knight is one of my favorite issues ever, not counting the older stuff that I scrounge in second-hand places for
Not a single word spoken out loud, all in Marc's head
And that last page, of him kneeling in front of the statue, broken
Damn
You should go and read his prose stuff then. I actually found him first through his books and then continued with MK.
Check out his website at pulpnoir.com He has a neat little story going on currently.

Give the man an excuse.
And he'll probably take it.

Not an excuse
Money, or Huston on Punisher
Also to that other guy, where can I find the story on Huston's site
'attaboy. Play hardball.

And I'd suck Stan Lee's dick for free on principle
I guess it's just a matter of finding the right ones.

I don't need an excuse to suck dick
I need a reason
Unless it's Stan
