#WednesdayWarrior I'm beginning the AVX miniseries by reading "Marvel Point One"
- Hot!
When first I read this I thought "eh." But upon rereading it I realize it leads to many new books I am currently reading, so I am more "ahh."

Is Nova still Rich Ryder? I could Wiki it, but I want someone to feel like they're helping (and you are!).

Reading Point One... not as exciting now that I decided to drop all my Marvel subs in favor of DC's New 47 (or so) titles I've decided are better stories & art lately..

Christopher the Doomed I liked the Cap & Thor films, but found the FF, Xmen, Spidey, and IronMan films deplorable and Marvel changing continuity to fit the films ruins the books for the sake of commercialism. Yuck. Avengers Assemble? Avenging Spiderman? P.U.

Scottie Mo Agreed. I don't even acknowledge those books. I was okay w/ X-Men when it first came out in 2000. How are you going to fit 40 years of history in 2 hrs AND include the marketable characters? But ever since Harry Potter turned 7 books into 8 faithful movies, I'm of the mind that its not as hard as I thoguht to put out continuity-reflecting X-films. 1. The originals take on Magneto/Brotherhood while Sentinels try to take them all out. 2. Prof X recruits Storm/Wolvy/Crawler etc to save the originals from Krakoa. 3. Phoenix Saga (maybe in 2 parts)

Christopher the Doomed But why stay true to the "geeky" continuity when they can make Nick Fury black, Wolverine tall, Angel a chick, Rogue ugly, and have em all drink Mountain Dew and eat Doritos Locos tacos at the Taco Bell that they got to in their X-ScionTC? Oh, Johnny Depp will play The (White) Falcon in the next one & he can call Cap on his Verizon 4G LTE phone? The Ultimate (Product Placement) Universe. I said I enjoyed the Thor & Cap films, but I should say their Ultimate-ness wasn't lost on me. You're right on the $$ about trying to jam so much shit into 2 hours. Even Avengers had its moments of lil plot holes caused by trying to fit so much pieced out continuity into it. I wish it coulda been AntMan & Wasp, or at least put Hawkeye in a suit that was sorta like his original (and don't change his in continuity suit just to match the film. Stupid.).

I like the concept of jump-starting many series to get people interested in different titles, it's a good idea.

Yet another reason to froth at the mouth all this year. Seriously, it's just a book of epic.

This is such a way for Marvel to "money-grub" but a lot of the stories don't really turn out that badly!
