Every issue is packed with action, fun and great characters. I thought the pregnancy storyline would cause me to drop the book but Hopeless has written the hell out of it and given Jessica Drew all of the agency in her pregnancy. This is the opposite of the Ms. Marvel/Power Girl/almost every other surprise pregnancy!Ridderinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18381673963393884079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-60664141277868653782016-03-23T21:34:34.504-07:002016-03-23T21:34:34.504-07:00For my two cents, I actually think that Scarlet Wi...For my two cents, I actually think that <i>Scarlet Witch</i> is actually quite good. It's certainly the most interesting way the character has portrayed in the past several years, and it's great to see Wanda with her own sense of agency.<br /><br />It's also really making the rotating artist work. Steve Dillon's issues were the best pages I've personally ever seen from him, and we're even getting Annie Wu in a few months! I'd definitely recommend checking out the trade, at least.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-59937225598906214172016-03-23T17:42:31.789-07:002016-03-23T17:42:31.789-07:00One behind on Scarlet Witch and still undecided. I...One behind on Scarlet Witch and still undecided. It's got an overarching premise and supporting character that really help make it a new, good starting point for the character. The individual stories seem crafted … to let that month's artist show off. So each individual issue is an experience, but not sure if the whole's holding together.<br /><br />Wouldn't be surprised if we skip on the Timelys at the LCS. Selling the same stuff a third way?Bramhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12224971335907211925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-53235302663726562182016-03-23T16:51:02.490-07:002016-03-23T16:51:02.490-07:00Civil War redux, is making me nervous.

I pretty much gave up on Marvel for quite a long while after the first Civil War, and only the growing malaise at DC and books like Ms Marvel and Squirrel Girl have lired me back to the Marvel side of the aisle. Well, and Young Avengers and Loki, Agent of Asgard, which is why I will be happily reading Vote Loki.SallyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05592635194271250605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-19682805307925980662016-03-23T13:15:42.471-07:002016-03-23T13:15:42.471-07:00Scarlet Witch is -- OK.

Yes, to be fair, it is 56 pages (although how many of those are ads?), but still, that's a ballsy move on Marvel's part.<br /><br />Then again--and sorry to be a dick about this--anyone who's actually excited to read this probably deserves to pay $6.Scott Beattiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00528480452314914200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-65632620364867857502016-03-23T05:24:03.346-07:002016-03-23T05:24:03.346-07:00Marvel seems to do well with villain series.

Maybe they should stop doing superhero comics and just concentrate on the villains.William Burnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05496339257496349874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-80400944447789037032016-03-23T04:04:49.464-07:002016-03-23T04:04:49.464-07:00Re: Timely Comics.

To me it looks like an attempt by Marvel to grab some of the attention of comics readers ordering out of Previews to give books they passed on months ago another shot while they are considering yet another DC set of number 1s.Jerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10060430253113856206noreply@blogger.com
