I dunno if this is gonna be an event per se. It sounds more like the Initiative or Manifest Destiny. I sweeping title to refer to the after-effects of an event. I hope War of Kings is the only event, so people only interested in terrestrial Marvel don’t have to spend a fortune yet again.
didnt go to pick up my poster last week
but yaaaaaaaaaa it looks nice
DeadPool 1-
Spoiler
OK I personally don’t like the PoV that Way adapted in Wolverine Origins, but I might get over it and like it eventually. Overall and OK issue though
SI #6, recommend you read Thunderbolts 124 first-
[details=Spoiler]Tony and co. confront the Skrulls at NY and together with the other heroes and THUNDERBOLTS, they begin the final battle!
I loved Fury’s line: “…my god has a hammer” :lol:
Also looks like NohVarr= new Captain Marvel?[/details]
Ultimate Origins 4-
[details=Spoiler]Issue starts years ago where General Ross meets with Nick Fury in a hospital in Kuwait. They talk about how Ross knows that he is the same Nick Fury from WW2 who the Super Soldier serum was tested on and convinces him to join the US army in order to recreate the SS Serum.
Fury enlists the help of a young Hank Pym, Bruce Banner, the Storms’ father and Richard Parker to recreate it.
Eventually Banner claims to have recreated it and a few days later tests it in secret with Hank Pym as a witness.
At the time Richard was meeting with his wife who brought Peter to visit him. Bruce turns into Hulk and accedentally causes the death of Peter’s parents. When he realizes what he did he reverted back into Banner. Fury arrives and beats the shit out of him. He takes little Peter to be cared for by his aunt and uncle.
Issue ends with Susan Storm revealing the true nature of this obelisks as Watchers.[/details]
SI: X-Men 2 was pretty good!
[details=Spoiler]The X-Men retreat after taking down some Super Skrulls. Scott passes on their new plan to defeat the invading armada on San Fran; Guerrilla tactics.
He also tells Emma to try and pinpoint/locate whatever is causing the Psy Lock preventing their psychics from telepathic communication. Using Cerebra and the Cuckoos, she manages to make contact with the lock but her brain stops functioning.
Nightcrawler is still trying to figure out more about the sphere and how he can get info from it but still to no avail.
Cyke uses Pixie as bait to lure in a Skrull or Super Skrull to have Hank run tests on it. When the Skrulls take it; X-Force along with ARCHANGEL, save Pixie and bring the Skrull body to Cyke for Hank to examine.
A very good issue indeed and I really liked the art though Emma’s face looked kinda weird in some parts[/details]
SI: Runaways and Avengers #3-
Spoiler
Eh kinda didn’t like the ending, but they managed to survive. I kinda want that Skrull that has Elektra and Cloak’s powers to appear again in future Marvel stories XD
SI Inhumans #2-
[details=Spoiler]Well the Inhumans are holding up better than on Earth :lol:
Medusa manages to extract the location of Black Bolt from a Skrull she captured and along with Crystal, Karnak, Gorgon and…fish dude they take a Skrull ship and go to where BB is.
Oh and the Skrulls have BB’s son captive[/details]
RESPECT THOR and behold
Thor: GOD SIZE
http://comicsmedia.ign.com/comics/image/article/909/909506/marvel-universe-revelations-special-edition-20080911030017388.jpg
Fraction with 3 artists Doug Braithwaite, Dan Brereton and Marko Djurdjevic
Respect is such a weak word to glorify the Mighty Thor, but that cover looks badass.
Who’s the guy with the gun though?
Read Ms. Marvel 30 and it was good though…
Marvel 30
[details=Spoiler]Carol finds out what has been in the Raft that the Skrulls feared; a Super Skrull capable of using a MAJORITY of the powers other heroes and villains can do. There is a drawback however; it fucked up its sanity and its been on a killing spree for a while before Carol went to the Raft.
So anyway she fights this Skrull and eventually manages to get him to the other Skrulls in the city where it went and slaughtered them all. It eventually got exhausted and Carol finished it off. As she goes in for a closer look, she find something stamp on its neck; "HYDRA PRIME 001"
Carol decides to get to the bottom of this.
MONTHS LATER; I.E. the heroes win, Carol is Hong Kong at a party and meets up with some guy with connections to HYDRA apparently. She assaults him in attempts to find out about “Ascension”.[/details]
I just started Iron Man from the very beginning. So far I’m liking it, but the Tales of Suspense issues are kinda lame. Once Captain America shows up, things will get much better. I just read the issue where Iron Man fights Angel after Angel gets hit by that radioactive blast and goes evil.
I really like Iron Man.
I just read the latest issue of X-Men Legacy.
:amazed: Consider me subscribed. JESUS.
Hmm I would guess that they would be The Hood’s gang. Just a guess.
i’d read that
My guess on DA is-
Hood, Loki, Emma, Doom, Namor and that 6th fellow from that image fans dubbed Evil Illuminati.
@Lobelia- Good job man you have chosen wisely :tup:
for everyone who wants to know what the deal with Doom and the Gauntlet well in december…
WHAT IF? SECRET WARS
Written by KARL BOLLERS & C.B. CEBULSKI
Penciled by JORGE MOLINA & PATRICK SPAZIANTE
Cover by GIUSEPPE CAMUNCOLI & MARKO DJURDJEVIC
From the Watcher?s Datalog: When a handful of Earth?s heroes and villains were kidnapped across several light years to the alien Battleworld to fight a Secret War, Doctor Doom thought he?d successfully stolen the power of the cosmic entity called the Beyonder. However, Doom was unaware he had only stolen a portion of the Beyonder?s near limitless abilities and the tables were turned, stripping the uber-villain of his newfound godhood. But what if…? What if events occurred differently? What if Doom discovered his mistake before it was too late and won the Secret War? In other words…?What If Doctor Doom Kept the Beyonder?s Power?? And featuring the conclusion of a special five part back-up story, ‘What if the Runaways Became the Young Avengers?’ In this issue… ?Young Avengers Assemble!?
48 PGS./Rated T+ …$3.99
also new Bru book coming in december
INCOGNITO #1
Written by ED BRUBAKER
Art & Cover by SEAN PHILLIPS
From the creators of Criminal and Sleeper comes the most insane and evil super-villain comic you?ve ever read!
What if you were an ex-super villain hiding out in Witness Protection… but all you could think about were the days when the rules didn?t apply to you? Could you stand the toil of an average life after years of leaving destruction in your wake? And what if you couldn?t stand it? What would you do then?
INCOGNITO ? a twisted mash-up of noir and super-heroics ? by best-selling creators Ed Brubaker (The Death of Captain America) and Sean Phillips(Marvel Zombies) with Val Staples on colors.
And continuing Criminal?s single issue tradition, each issue of Incognito has more pages of story content, as well as articles on pulp and noir and behind the scenes looks!
32 PGS./Mature Content/No Ads …$3.50
Thor god sized also in december
I mean, anything is possible and you could be right but Secret Wars has abso-freaking-lutely nothing to do with either the Infinity Gems or the Infinity Gauntlet sagas. I mean, I suppose they can have Doom crave even more god powers after he gets the Beyonder’s…
Still I’m gonna be sort of pissed if that’s what this is all about. Especially after they teased Doom with his hand on Mjolnir a while back and when the story came out couldn’t lift it up. Not that I think he should be allowed to pick it up but ah, the possibilities… :badboy:
Its from the preview catalog of December and near the WHAT IF? SECRET WARS there’s that Doom cover, so yeah that whats the all doom with the Infinte Gauntlet is all aout
Booo… Why can’t 616 Doom do that… :arazz:
Thanks for the info though. 
^I’ve been hearing rumors of that…
Marvel news from the Diamond summit -
*? Marvel Comics began their presentation with the theme, ?Embrace Change?, which stems from events presented in ?Secret Invasion?.
A second volume of ?Marvel?s Greatest Collections? will be offered.
Marvel will soon launch their Marvel Retailer Resource Center website, a resource for retailers needing up-do-date information, and assisting stores in creating websites.
Two television ads, one promoting Secret Invasion, the other Stephen King?s The Stand, will air, although no specifics were mentioned about the campaign.
Following the success of ?The Invincible Iron Man?, Marvel will introduce a new Wolverine title to coincide with the release of the movie next Summer.
Kick Ass has become such a popular title that Marvel is reprinting all issues. Second printings of Amazing Spider-Man were also mentioned.
Ultimatum, penned by Jeff Loeb and pencilled by David Finch, will commence in November. After this event, both Ultimate X-Men and Ultimate Fantastic Four will cease publication. Ultimate Avengers, written by Mark Millar, will begin after the event.
Three ?What If?? titles, each connecting to a Marvel event, will be offered. X-Infernus, slated for December, will feature the return of Illyana Rasputin, who was considered dead. The third Marvel Zombies series will take place within the normal ?616? Marvel Universe. Psylocke will also return. Amazing Spider-Man #600 will explain what is happening with the new revamped Spider-Man. Sinister 666 was teased, but not explained. Marvel will soon celebrate their Seventieth Anniversary, with details to be announced later. A new Marvel Index series will be published. The Marvel Masterworks line will soon feature trade paperback editions, one each month. The hardcover series will continue. Preliminary pencils of a female Black Panther were teased. Cable will crossover with the X-Men in the ?Messiah War? storyline. A new line, Marvel Noir will feature new, darker versions of the X-Men, Spider-Man, Daredevil, and Wolverine. To counteract this, Marvel Illustrated will adapt L. Frank Baum?s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, featuring writing by Eric Shanower and illustrations by Scottie Young. In addition to the animated version of Stephen King?s ?N?, Marvel will also publish a comic book version.
Brian Michael Bendis then explained what was planned once ?Secret Invasion? finished. Starting in December, Dark Reign, written by Bendis and illustrated by Alex Maleev will continue the events currently taking place in Secret Invasion. A special ?Secret Invasion Dark Reign? one-shot will bridge the gap between the two series. Mighty Avengers #20 will be Bendis? last issue, as he will begin writing ?Dark Avengers? the next month, with art by Mike Deodato. Bendis and Maleev will also team to present a new Spider-Woman series. Because of secrecy regarding the ending of Secret Invasion, Marvel will print a special ?Dark Reign? edition of Previews which will present all of the redacted information from previous issues. Bendis reiterated that contrary to rumors, Ultimate Spider-Man will continue, and that readers can expect the return of the creepy Spider-Woman, Kitty Pryde, and Gwen Stacy. The Ultimate Spider-Man Annual will deal with Peter Parker?s virginity, and the introduction of Ultimate Mysterio, although Bendis was coy about how the latter affects the former.
Volume Two of Powers will end with #30. Volume Three will begin late next year, will have guaranteed shipping dates, and that the interim will feature hardcovers, paperbacks, and an ?Art of? book. Powers is also in development for television. A retailer inquired about the Marvel MMO videogame, and Bendis explained that it was a result of Cryptic and Microsoft canceling the project.*
Psylocke’s back… So she’s leaving New Exiles to go back to 616? HOORAY! Please give her to Carey… Well he likes the character I hear so chances are good. Here’s hoping…

Ultimate Avengers series by Millar? YES PLEASE!
So we’ll have to go through a Loeb crap to get to Millar’s UA, fuck it im not reading Ultimatum
(which is going to be easy since the only Ultimate title i read is FF)
Too bad UA is pretty far away i hope it will have memorable quotes like Ultimates:
“hulk not sissy boy HULK STRAIGHT”
"surrender you think this letter stands for france!!!"
I trust Millar to deliver
Damn that DOOM image was for a What if.:bluu:
