    Re: Comic Book Fans....

    Has anyone read the new Batman graphic novel out? At least I think it's new...I saw it in Barnes and Nobles the other day.

    Don't remember the title or anything, but it was the one where Batman dies and all of the villains are paying their "respects" to him by telling stories?

      "Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader" It was a 2 part story in Batman and Detective Comics between Final Crisis and Battle for the Cowl that Neil Gaiman wrote. Good story, but odd. Typical Gaiman basically.

(Pop a Claw. In your ***) and i was right about MJ, and i hope to god it doesn't end up something stupid that Quesada has in his head (though next year's(!) storyline "TheGauntlet" is gonna be badass.)

        One last thing though, i don't know where i stand in regards to Doc Ock's new look...one one hand it makes sense, but on the other its ugly.
        I just got to 600 as my issue didn't arrive till today. Late... but it was worth the wait because as you mentioned, EPIC stuff all around.

        I figured MJ would be back but I didn't think it would be at the end of 600. Can't wait till 601.

        As far as Doc Ock's new look, I'm on the same boat as it is interesting but as you mentioned, looks kind of ugly. Really interested to see where they go with Doc from here on out.

              Will be getting this, but not the new Wolverine anime. Worst interpretation ever of any character ever done and in my mind seems to be some old school anime with drawn-on claws added to it.

                Agreed.

                Iron Man looks okay though.

                  I have a lot of Spider-man, DeadPool, and Venom stuff, very little Batman stuff (Even though he one of my favorite) until now. In the last month I've spent way so much money on Batman graphic novels and comics. But it has all been worth it has been some excellent reads.

                  Just finished The Long Halloween and starting Dark Victory, great, great stuff and recommended despite the older art.

                    I read something crazy from Quesada regarding Spidey.

                      Still don't know WTF Quesada is going on about. I doubt even he knows. I'm still prickly about the whole OMD deal.

                        Okay thanks, I haven't been reading the current Spidey stuff much but i'm trying to keep an eye on it on the periphery because when i'm finished reading the back catalogue of ASM I intend to be an avid Spidey Fan.

                        Is ASM Spidey's only book these days? I know they imploded a lot of the other titles in the Spidey-verse.

                              I am the same way as far as Batman goes.

                              I have always really liked the character in fim and cartoons and games.

                              But I just stick to only the Marvel U for whatever reason LOL.

                                Hey guys. I was a comic FREAk til about 3-4 years ago. I'm 20 now, but wanna get back in since I hear they are planning a major storyline for 2010 with Spidey. Always loved it, just lacked the time. Where should I be starting? Deadpool still have his own comic? I stopped around the beginning of Cable/Deadpool.

                                Also, I wanna grab a couple graphic novels, went to a book store today and they had a bunch that got me sucked back in. I want one or two that I missed but is pretty essential to the current stories....House of M? Planet Hulk? Do they have a Civil War one?

                                Also probably grabbing The Long Halloween for Batman, I always have heard great things about it.
