Marvel Comics Feburary 2007 Solicts (Full)

Owenashi

The latest Joe Fridays over at Newsarama has previews of the Marvel solicits for Feb-2007 and now they're brought to you. I'm sure as you look them over, you'll notice a 'subtle' thread between some of the covers.

Ha, Spider-Man has tiny, tiny hands.

Would've preferred Haredevil.

robosagogo

It's a DH logo. Clearly his name is Deviled Ham.

Garlic Bread

they're not bringing back the black costume because of Spider-Man 3, noooooo

DarkPrimus

I can see why Hulk would smash that. :winky:

Droogs it is obviously Devilham. Notice the D's placement before the H.

This seems an appropriate moment to smugly brag that I own the original page of that Sean Philip's piece. It's so pretty.

Spectre-x

or rather, Deviled Ham.

EDIT: Robosagogo's post was not there before. I swear to god.

robosagogo

Why does the concept of Ham exist in a world of intelligent pigs? We don't have a word for processed human meat. Are they cannibals?

Spectre-x

The real question is, why are the two statues behind Deviled Ham statues of humans, when he lives in a world of anthropomorphic animals?

Fencingsax

Because it was a one-shot joke that's being overused?

robosagogo

These parodies don't hold up against intelligent scrutiny!

Who cares? It makes sense within the context of the current storyline, and it's totally cool looking.

Caveman Paws

Manifest's logic is flawless. I -love- the black costume and I don't care what has to be done to bring it about.

I think Spidey should "switch" back and forth from time to time the ol' "red&blue" suit with the black suit. (Honestly I wish he would just keep the black forever but I'm trying to be "diplomatic.")

Newsarama's added a second, more official preview for the Feb-07 solicits today. This one involves most if not all the Civil War-related titles. However, as you'll see for yourselves, there's not that much information to be gained from the solicits they allowed to see print.

Hmm, it looks like people are fighting and someone let Micheal Turner draw something again.

Interesting.

Munch

I'm just imagining several of those Hand ninjas landing with their buddies' weapons sticking out of them, leaving Ronin to fight like, three.

You mean actually getting the X-Men involved in this whole thing?

All I want for my birthday is Civil War ending.

And then maybe a pony.

Jordyn

I used to have a pony.

Yes. The man is a terrible artist and the fact that he gets all this work despite the fact that he is OBVIOUSLY a terrible artist with no understanding of aesthetics of any kind offends me on an existential level.

Storm's not an X-Man anymore. Cyclops basically fired her in House of M: The Day After. Now she's in Black Panther, since she's Black Panther's wife now.

So much for trying to forget that happened.

So stupid.

I never really understood why he did that.

Toji Suzuhara

Speaking of how bad the Black Panther is, did anyone read the most recent issue? The one with Namor?

Talk about murdering characters. Namor asking for T'Challa's help, Storm whining about not getting enough us-time with BP. Terrible.

I like exactly one thing of Turners, and thats his Wonder Women Identity Crisis cover.

Does that make me bad person?

Scooter

Personally I don't think it looks that bad. My only complaint is that their hair looks a bit like ribbons.

Caveman Paws

I won't lie and say I'm familiar with Michael Turner's work but based on that Storm vs Thor pic I give him high scores. Sadly the French judge did not score him at all well, but that's no surprise. Fucking French, always so snobby they be, says I. Yar.

Conditional_Axe

Every once in awhile, Turner's capable of doing something cool looking, but most of the time, especially when it comes to interiors, he can't produce anything of any real quality. Even people who ape him, like Talent Caldwell, are better artists than he is.

Blankspace

I gotta agree with Scooter, Turner's not all that bad. He's not an anatomy expert but he does some decent work.

Cariblue

Is that Captain America in the Omega Flight picture?

The French have taste, You should listen to them more often.

This would have been the perfect place for a Jack Ryder picture.

Also, Turner, to me, is kind of like Humberto Ramos or Joe Mad. Occassionally they'll get a project that suits them perfectly, and absolutely draw the fuck out of it. And then sometimes they do something that, for whatever reason, looks completely retarded with their style. I think Turner should get a little leeway for having cancer and all though.

USAgent. And Beta Ray Bill, Arachne (Julia Carpenter Spider-Woman), and Talisman are the confirmed people on the cover. And Guardian, but I think Oeming implied that it isn't Mac in the Guardian suit.

Jordyn

Turner draws girls in a way I find very annoying. They are usually almost naked, they have glossy blank stares, and their torsos are about a foot longer than they should be.

Two out of three ain't so bad.
