The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
It's time again for solicitations and wwtMask is nowhere around. The previews for August are out on CBR and Newsarama. I'll update this post once the full solicits are out.
The All Winners has a version of that WW2 cap cover with Cap driving the motorcycle while Bucky gunned down gangsters with a Tommy Gun.
I love the Djurdjevic Thor variant for Incredible Herc #132.
There's possible spoilers (I think it's the whole premise behind Reborn) in the Marvel Spotlight: Summer Events solicit
The original Human Torch is back, and he isn’t the only one returning
earn a few of Mac Gargan's Spider-Man life lessons: if you bite someone's arm off, they will come back with a robot arm and try to kill you, as the Redeemer makes his move
HAHAHAHA. Sweet
because you demanded it--the return of Butterball!
Yay
what is the connection between him and The Twelve's MASTER MIND EXCELLO? Everyone's favorite irascible boy genius is after the answers himself -- but to get them he's going to have to go through his arch-nemesis, PYTHAGORAS DUPREE, the sixth-smartest man on Earth!
Lots of interesting solicts, but the only thing I will be buying beyond the usual is the Death of Captain American Omnibus HC...assuming it is the natural continuation of the first CA Omnibus.

Wait a second, I thought they established someone else as the sixth-smartest man on Earth already?

Amadeus Cho was actually declared the fifth smartest man on Earth by a soap contest. Pythagoras' title probably either comes from that soap contest as well or was appointed by Cho himself.

It sure seems to be. Volume 1 was 1-25 and Volume 2 will be 25-42, so you'll get a double up, but it works with the Death of Cap title.

I would say, if that wording is correct, it's probably not Carol back from the not-really-dead-fuck-you-Brian-Reed, and more likely Ultra Girl.
HULK #14
Written by JEPH LOEB
Pencils & Wraparound Cover by IAN CHURCHILL
Variant Cover by IAN CHURCHILL
Variant Cover by ED MCGUINNESS
It's CODE RED VS. X-FORCE. Who is Code Red? How about Red Hulk. Deadpool. The Punisher. Elektra. Thundra. The Crimson Dynamo. What terrible secret could bring this group together -- only to run headlong into the deadliest team of X-Men? All this -- and wait until you see RED HULK VS. WOLVERINE! Superstar scribe Jeph Loeb is joined by art team Ian Churchill and Mark Farmer as the epic saga of the Red Hulk continues!
Yay. Loeb gets to ruin perfectly good characters. With a stupid team name.
I'm tentatively bolding The Crimson Dynamo as a perfectly good character because he was cool in the quasi-opening arc of War Machine that started in Director of Shield.
UC Avengers and UC Spider-Man, a new Mark Waid arc in ASM (I'm probably going to skip the Dark Reign arc), the end of War of Kings and Destroyer, an issue of Deadpool for every week (two ongoings and a limited? seriously?), Death of Cap Omnibus, Messiah War Hardcover, Ghost Box hardcover, Iron Fist Vol 5, X-Men First Class Finals TPB, Thor vol 2 TPB, Exiles Ultimate Collection 2, and Ultimate X-Men Ultimate Collection 3.
Damn. That's a lot of awesome. More awesome than I'll ever be able to afford.

Well Rogue was wiped clean again, right? She always has to drain one person completely and retain their powerset on an ongoing basis... First Ms Marvel, next Sunfire... from the cover perhaps that person is going to be Ares o_O

Hm, I suppose I may have been misinterpreting it. I was wondering if it was a quasi-spoiler for Legacy, which I think we've talked about before. But you're on trades, right?

Based on the cover and the solicit for another X-book it seems like she just grabbed Ares' power.
I would say, if that wording is correct, it's probably not Carol back from the not-really-dead-fuck-you-Brian-Reed, and more likely Ultra Girl.
Maybe. But really a decent writer can't bring her back fast enough. At least I think she'll be in X-Men Forever, so that's my little bit of bottled hope that I keep grasping onto like it's the one true ring.

Hey. Code Red is good enough for a brand of Mountain Dew, it's good enough for an XTREME bunch of comic book characters.
I heard that in War of the Kings 6 Quasar is all, "Hey, I manipulate energy. Something feels weird. What's this!?" and then he reconstitutes Carvol Danvers and she's all "Thanks!" and then they go and beat up Moonstone together and then they makeout.

Batman: "And let's face it, "Ms. Marvel" ... the last time you really inspired anyone was when you were dead. (Or when Rogue stole your powers and became this totally awesome chick)
Why does Loeb get to mess with Deadpool? Why does he get so much free reign? I just... I just don't understand. I mean, when was the last time a Loeb book sold because of Loeb? I mean, last I recall in the past few years he's either been on a book that would sell regardless of whos put on it (Wolverine, Ultimates) or he has a superstar artist backing him up (Hulk, Ultimates again). It's maddening to see him continue to write books and then get to use characters I actually give a damn about.

Because Loeb is careful never to write anything that isn't a major event or an already big title we never get to see how much his name sells by itself.
Uh, unless I'm missing it, I don't see the solicit for the giant-sized Old Man Logan finale. I know McNiven isn't the fastest artist around but seriously what the fuck?

You were expecting it to come out when they said? Fool me once...
Technically it isn't late yet because it hasn't even been solicited. I'd rather this happen than constantly shifting solicits but I can't believe it will take McNiven almost half a year to draw this thing. It better be the best damn thing he's ever drawn, and judging by how fantastic the art of OML has been so far, it might be.

Is that what's taking so long? I noticed a new wolverine in the stands a week ago and was kind of shocked to see it was by Jason Aaron (and it was no longer the Old Man Logan arc). I guess now I know where its ending.

Edit: Oooohhhh they have restarted Incredible Hulk as a separate ongoing... bizzare
Yet Incredible Hercules is still going on piggybacking from Hulk.
The number logic to get Hulk to #600 is bullshit, really.
Basically, they want a whole bunch of things to hit 600 at the same time.
