Marvel Solicitations for August

[responsarbre]

A new SP//dr story? Be still, my beating heart! I thought DC had a lock on Gerard Way ... maybe not so much that Young Animal is wrapping up.

[Jekyll]

Sooooo much good stuff coming out.

Definitely pulling:
Daredevil
Daredevil annual
Peter Parker The Spectacular Spider-Man
Amazing Spider-Man
Amazing Spider-Man Renew Your Vows (love this series!)
Venom ( best relaunch I’ve read in a long time!)

Maybe:
Fantastic Four ( I feel I really should get this)
Web of Venom

Depending on how I like the first issue and want to stick with it
Tony Stark Iron Man

[Ying Ko]

Thor #4
Avengers #6
Venom #5
Marvel Two-In-One #9
Darth Vader #19-20

[protege]

Wow, that's a hell of a big month. Man!!

The relaunch of FF is, of course, the crown jewel but there's a sh*t ton of exciting stuff coming in August.

Really looking forward to both Extermination and Infinity Wars. I think those are both going to be a lot of fun.

Also curious to finally find out what the Classified X-titles in the July and August solicits are. I would say it's tied in to the return of Wolverine but if so, why be so cagey about it when there's already four minis leading up to that and there's no attempt to hide the fact that Logan is getting a new solo in September?

I'm gonna say it's about the return of Uncanny X-Men but we'll see.

I wish they’d say something; i’d like to know if this is a book i’d like to pick up.

Pulling:
Infinity Wars #1 & #2
Immortal Hulk #4
Moon Knight #198
Black Panther #3
Domino #5
Old Man Logan #45 & #46 - tbh I'm assuming this is gonna end at like #50 or something
Exiles #6 & #7 - really not appreciating the random double shipping month here

Maybe
West Coast Avengers #1 - Loved Hawkeye: Kate Bishop and Unbelievable Gwenpool. America Chavez was great in Young Avengers and Ultimates. I'd trade-wait it but books like these need the issue pre-orders.

Since Astonishing X-Men got a new writer and Peter Parker: Spectacular Spider-Man will have ended its first year of stories, I might drop both. I dig both series but I need my pull list cut down. Would definitely trade-wait Rosenberg's Astonishing X-Men run though. Not sure about PP: SSM. I really like Zdarsky's run but I'm not really invested in Spider-Man in general to bother following the trades if I dropped. We'll see.

Other comments:
Edge of Spider-geddon sounds awesome. Spider-Punk? SP//dr written by Gerard Way and the creative duo behind The Dregs? Between this and Death of the Inhumans, the temptation is huge to add one to my pull list but I really can't. Should make for a great collection. And I guess Way's more free after DC's Young Animal line ended. I hope he does more Marvel work, imo Marvel is more supportive of that style of books.

Bryan Hill's writing Spider-Man Annual #1. If you look at his Twitter, dude's just the nicest guy. Getting to write Detective Comics and Miles Morales, that's pretty big. Regarding the solicit itself, is this supposed to be a backstory for Miles Morales set in the Prime universe? In general, I'm not interested in his upcoming work but wish the best for the guy.

I guess Daredevil, Moon Knight, and Spectacular Spider-Man are keeping their Legacy numbering? Makes sense, there's not really any grand change in story or direction to justify relaunching them like with Black Panther, Punisher or Thor.

I am so excited for Slott's Fantastic Four.

[j9ac9k]

I have really lost touch with Marvel the last several years. The only thing here that I find exciting is "Iron Man" because it features Aaron Stack, the Machine Man! I love me some Machine Man...

[Knives]

I'll buy only X-men Red, X-men Blue, Domino, X-23, Ms Marvel, Champions and Mystery in Madripoor.

Little compared to the last few months. There does not seem to be many interesting things going on.

[soundsci]

Is Domino now an ongoing? I could've sworn it was going to be a 5-issue mini but it doesn't say "#5 (of 5)" like you'd see for other minis.

Edit: Didn't realize Ariel Olivetti was doing art for Death of the Inhumans. That plus Cates has my interest piqued.

Edit 2: Bryan Hill writing Miles Morales sounds like something I'd like to see, even if it's just for the one issue.

[chachi]

ASM 3 & 4 (or is it 804 & 805?)
Venom 5 - issue 1 was just awesome.

[Dthirds3]

[Mike_Murdock]

Definitely
----------
Daredevil Annual - Interesting concept for a story
Daredevil 606 - What the flying ****? Also, I guess I have to read Weapon Lost.
Daredevil 607 - What's the publication schedule for this book? It seems like randomly twice a month.
Life of Captain Marvel 2 - I'm curious the best stories in the past that discuss Carol's family and childhood.
Black Panther 3 - Feels very pulp sci-fi
Death of the Inhumans 2 - Ouch
X-Men: Grand Design - Second Genesis 2 - This is fun

Probably
--------
Avengers 6
Hunt for Wolverine: Weapon Lost 4 - I hate that I have to buy this, but it's looking like I might.
New Mutants: Dead Souls 6 - Sounds like another downer book.

Maybe
-----
Fantastic Four 1
West Coast Avengers 1

I'll think about it
-------------------
Captain America 2
Marvel 2-in-One 9 - The return of the FF makes this feel out of place.
Marvel Rising: Ms. Marvel/Squirrel Girl - I didn't like the #0 issue, unfortunately, so I'm not likely to continue. But the characters are fun.

Random thoughts: X-Classified 2 - Glad all will be revealed in June.
Marvel Universe by Frank Miller - Not sure I can afford $75, but damn this is tempting.

[Zach]

Lots of good stuff, but I'll just be getting Cosmic Ghost Rider.

[Pav]

Lots of interesting stuff, and plenty that I'd like to read after tradewaiting - but only three that I'm definitely picking up day-of:

Scarlet Spider
Runaways
Multiple Man

-Pav, who still wants a Midnight Sons follow-up to Damnation...

Edit: Y'know, I just realized that it was Runaways and Multiple Man that brought me back to comics after Byrne's Spidey run soured things for me; glad to have both of those titles back in action!
