Note- The MC2 series A-Next is published around this time. It doesn’t seem to be part of the line, so I’m not covering it. I’m also not going to cover United They Stand, a tie-in to the short-lived...

In the first full arc, it's not quite on that level.

There is something to be said for personal responsibility.

If we restrict people's ability to take loans, they're not going to borrow money when they need it, either to invest in the future or to...

Quick adjustments are rare if we're talking about a new direction and creative team for a flagship book. Look at how much time passed between Tom Brevoort being announced as the new X-Men editor and...

One thing to keep in mind with the campaign is that your goal is to persuade people who aren't necessarily on your side, to show them that your preferences will make more money in the long term. That...

Marvel's probably made the decision at this point.

I wonder if Mackay taking over X-Men makes him more or less likely. It shows Marvel obviously trusts him with a big project, but with that and...

I don't think a success makes things worse.

With the sales success of Ultimate Spider-Man, I think Marvel will want to keep Hickman on it.

My impression is that he's pretty expensive as a...

Writing for the New York Times, Ezra Klein looks an absurd situation in San Francisco where it took $1.7 million and two years to install a public toilet. He highlights the response by a bureaucrat...

They might think it's unnecessarily abrasive.

Eh, it would seem that the six months of Peter's life getting better is more compelling than just to the point where everything's going great.

The smart thing to do for Marvel would be to wait a little while to see if this book continues to be a major success. So they're not going to make major decisions for Amazing Spider-Man based on the...

Recently, I've started rereading the Bruce Jones run of the Incredible Hulk. It got initial critical acclaim, and seemed inspired by the 1970s TV show (at the time, the most high-profile Hulk...

On a Nerdist list of top Superman runs, the Triangle era was in first place.

This was a bit of a surprise to me because I was under the impression this wasn't considered a great period of...

There's no right to disinformation, but someone is going to have to determine what counts and what doesn't.
