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 Marvels Project and all of the 70th anniversary stuff looks awesome.
And we get a couple of Noir books that may be interesting compared to the shit that's come out so far.
Punisher Noir and Cage Noir
Neat Noir cover:
But
this... I won't even show the image on the page. It's just... Perfect.

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
Yay
Oooooh
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.

X-FORCE/CABLE: MESSIAH WAR HC, NEW AVENGERS: THE REUNION PREMIERE HC, WOLVERINE ORIGINS: DARK REIGN PREMIERE HC, PUNISHER: DARK REIGN PREMIERE HC, X-FORCE VOL. 2: OLD GHOSTS TPB, CABLE VOL. 2: WAITING FOR THE END OF THE WORLD TPB, UNCANNY X-MEN: SISTERHOOD TPB, and GHOST RIDER: THE LAST STAND TPB
I might wait for a few of those to go to tpb.
Able to use all her powers she's accumulated, anyone?
Does it even come in hardcover? Or are they just sending it right to trade?
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
These are all facts.
I think I just had a fangasm.
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.
Yeeeeahhhh, they already made a Code Blue.

Let's Play Final Fantasy 'II' (Ch10 - 5/17/10)
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.

What is the first thing Lockjaw will do with his new god-like power?
5 words: World's most comforable Pet-bed.
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.
