That's the thing that's bugging me about that Avengers assignment layout Hickman did (he was a graphic designer before he wrote comics). That's not a falcon or any kind of real-life bird that comes to mind, but it is a symbol immediately recognizable to one creature:
Honestly, I'd start spending so much money on comics if they just skipped single issues and put out a trade every six months. It's actually probably better that they don't do that.
I think we could argue some books work better like that. 2-3 60 page defender books with a small or digital print run for example might have been a better way to handle that series.
Oh who are all the guys in the last page of avengers? I only recognized a few.
left to right:
Smasher
Captain Universe
Hyperion
Captain America
Manifold
Falcon
Wolverine
Shang-Chi
Sunspot
in the air:
Spider-Woman
Captain Marvel
Spider-Man
Cannonball
Deadpool three seems to be hinting at a larger shield plot. Dr. Strange was written kind of weird like they needed to use him but he really doesn't fit in Wades world so everything seemed kind of stilted
I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.

One thing bothered me.
Sunspot. Cap, you went to the New Mutants and took Sunspot instead of X-Man?

The scope and scale of the stories in "New Avengers" will range from the epic to the intimate. "We want the stories to have rhythm so that the book remains dynamic. The first issue is very wide and very action packed. The second issue is not at all. It's basically a bunch of dudes sitting around a room trying to figure out what happened in issue #1, until the floor drops out, and then issue #3 is probably one of the biggest things I've ever written," Hickman explained. "That's kind of the structure the book will have, moving back-and-forth between 'oh my god adventures' and then 'what does it all mean?'"
Ya people that didn't at least give Miles a chance are bonkers, Usm is really fun with Miles.
Agree totes. I didn't think I'd enjoy someone so young being Spidey, but it works better then having yet another teenager/20 something.
Superior Spider-Man has me very optimistic for some reason. I haven't followed a spidey book (venom doesn't count) in over a decade (wait, when was the 90's?) but that might change.
Yeah I don't think anyone should be called a dummy if they didn't like the Miles story.
However I can't understand seeing all the super positive reviews, and getting to the DoSM storyarc(a highlight of the entire run) and deciding not to even try the next one.
Miles is a fun character, but the book had a marked change in tone and pacing after Peter died and I won't fault a dude for dropping the book as a result.

Ultimate Spider-Man is amazing and if you don't like it because it's not Peter you're dumb. If you genuinely don't like the story, yeah okay I guess that would make sense (except it doesn't because it's still amazing and you're still dumb)

Actually I will correct that
The story isn't amazing, but the character work is. I don't think it's a fair comparison with Superior Spider-Man and Ultimate Spider-Man, because USM is basically the world Bendis built and controls, whereas Superior is going to have inconsistencies with him appearing in other titles.

Heh.

Damn.

I write about video games and stuff. It is fun. Sometimes.
Sunspot is way cooler than X-Man
I will accept this as I didn't think about it.
Perhaps Hickman will make me like Sunspot.

But it's not my favorite art either.
I might like it more than Dexter Soy's art, though.
I don't know how I am going to respond to Superior Spider-Man
nobody wants to be the guy that poo poos the new ideas
but I cannot say that I am looking forward to someone else in the suit
that happened with USM and it killed my interest utterly
I can't help but be all "just leave Peter Parker alone. Stop trying too hard."
it feels like a gimmick and I think that fans will respond poorly
I reserve the right to not be massively enthusiastic about what we have heard so far, though

They killed off Ultimate Parker right as was at issue 15 of the trades. Didn't even bother buying the rest
Then you're missing some of the best Spider-Man. You can tell Bendis was tired of writing Peter in the current run.

if you stopped reading you are a dummy
it just wasn't interesting to me

Kind of like Captain Marvel's haircut
just that I read the first issue and didn't really like it
didn't grab me or anything
so I stopped reading
how is that in any way weird
