LOL. - too Pulp Fiction. Yeah...it is I think. Same with Secret Invasion : Thor, taking place before Secret Invasion 6...whatever. Gotta Love Thor.
Posted by tittom on 09/15/08 at 07:22 PMWow, i'm really tired of tie-ins.
Posted by cman12 on 09/15/08 at 07:45 PMIs this the first week that Mighty Avengers and New Avengers are coming out on different weeks?
Posted by coltrane68 on 09/15/08 at 07:49 PMHonestly, Race, I don't know or care. I am doing keg stands of the Bendis Kool-Aid and can't possibly be objective when it comes to Secret Invasion. I'm lovin' every minute of it.

I'm very selective with my tie-ins. Thor. Mighty, New. That's it. Oh, no, I'm gonna buy those old FF backs too...ok maybe not that much selective.
Posted by tittom on 09/15/08 at 09:18 PMDude im just gonna say IM DONE WITH MARVEL BIG EVENTS, yes i said it but i refuse to keep buying books to support marvels theory that we all want major events because sales numbers are high. From now on i refuse to buy em and i think people should think about cutting out buying tie ins and crap if they feel compelled to keep buying event books.
Posted by SDcomicfan on 09/16/08 at 06:23 AMwell, if we like them, why shoudn't we buy them? Mighty and New are fun, and I love Thor, so its not like I feel like I'm wasting my money...
And I mean, everything with the Secret Warriors, count me in.
Secret Warriors? Not interested. They've done less than nothing to give me any reason to care about these kids.
I think Mighty Avengers and New Avengers are dangerously close to suffering the same fate as JLA did recently. JLA for about a year was little more than a tie-in book for all of DC's big events. I think if this continues both Might and New will begin to sufffer in terms of sales. They are already suffering in terms of quality. Koi Pham's art isn't up to par. Bendis is doing somersaults trying to get everything to tie together. I'm just not feeling this book right now. I'll be curious to see who the new writer on the book will be after Bendis leaves.
Posted by shogunt on 09/16/08 at 07:55 AMThe preview pages of this book knocked my socks off.
Posted by goat77 on 09/16/08 at 09:49 AMHmm. Part of me says "Don't do it! Stay clear of pesky tie-ins you can ill afford" but the other part of me say "Go on! You know you want to..." Darn you BMB!
Posted by TheApeThatEscaped on 09/16/08 at 05:26 PMOh, Bendis. Why can't i quit you?
Posted by cman12 on 09/16/08 at 10:05 PM@Diabhol - Kegstands? I've been funneling.
Posted by RaceMcCloud on 09/17/08 at 01:54 PMI know this has been beat to death, but wouldn't it be great if the Avengers were actually in this book eventually? They should've suspended the books for SI and just created a series called "Secret Invasion: Back Story."
Posted by southbymidwest on 09/18/08 at 01:16 AMThis ruled. A lot.
Posted by GungaDin on 09/18/08 at 06:57 PMIt was kinda fun, I was surprised.
Posted by cman12 on 09/18/08 at 10:03 PMI agree, cman. This was purely a fun comic book. I really like the art also, much better than the fiasco that I call Xfactor...

So here's a question about Secret Invasion for everyone: Did Bendis go TOO "Pulp Fiction" with the chronology of the thing? Maybe this "training" issue (if that's what it really is) should have come RIGHT AFTER Fury recruited his "Secret Warriors"?
(P.S. - I love Secret Invasion.)
