Age of Marvels: New Universe – June 2023 Solicitations

[CaptCleghorn]

Did Neal get a car?

It was Oprah. Of course, he got a car!

[Exciter]

It was Oprah. Of course, he got a car!

But it’s AOM so certainly the car was possessed by a demon or a sentient alien or something!


As for this wallet-crushing month, here are my pulls:

AVENGERS ARMISTICE #1 (a suitable epilogue to the epic WWZ event!)
THUNDERBOLTS NO MORE #1 (a capstone to an incredible Thunderbolts era. I loved this series!)
AGENTS OF A.R.C.A.N.A. #54 (the Shocker versus Cthulhu-style epic I always wanted!)
AGENTS OF FURY #32 (in fairness to Clay, aren’t most of our Senators pre-programmed robots?)
AMAZING FANTASY #38: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (cults always get all upset when you try and steal their messiah)
BLACK PANTHER: KING OF WAKANDA! #46 (N’Gabo FAFO!)
CAPTAIN AMERICA #54 (Steve can’t catch a break…)
CAPTAIN UNIVERSE: BEYOND #4 (Mars is beautiful this time of year!)
CROSSGENESIS #14 (this was a really unique series that allowed for great flexibility in storytelling - and a suitably great ending, even invoking my beloved Hyborian Age!)
DARK INTELLIGENCE #24 (Hand with the winning… hand)
THE ENIGMA CORPS #6 (damn, things look bleak for the EC!)
EˣCELSIOR #5 (this is kinda like how Ric Flair was “the Nature Boy” despite appearing neither natural or boyish)
F² #21 (I think our AOM politicians should be looking to introduce laws banning “Temporal insider trading” - Get on that Sue Storm!)
HAWKEYE AND SPIDER-WOMAN #20 (people always stealing my symbiote…)
HULK IN HOLLYWOOD #1 (I’ve had this series in my mind for basically years lol)
THE INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #46 (what’s worse? An absentee father or a father that’s really an evil robot?)
THE MIGHTY THOR #54 (there’s so much fallout from WWZ to follow up on!)
MISTRESS OF KUNG FU season 2: “Brothers and Sisters” #11 (LMDs everywhere!)
PETER PARKER, THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #28 (Spidey-Sense tingles when you’re about to lose money gambling? Spider-trip to Atlantic City!!)
SPELLBOUND #16 (it’s a trap!!!)
UNCANNY X-MEN #54 (For the Horde! Lok’tar Ogar! Plus, he’s naked!)
VENOM: AGENT OF SHIELD #7 (Redeemer might be looking for some… redemption)

[guanlishabi]

[CaptCleghorn]

OK, let's buys them all. All of them I decree!

AVENGERS ARMISTICE #1 (Avengahs forevah! At least the Boston Avengers.)
THUNDERBOLTS NO MORE #1 (Fenris to their Dad: "We learned world domination from you, OK? We learned it from you!")
AGENTS OF A.R.C.A.N.A. #54 (Limbo never struck me as a place to be invaded, more like escaped from. Maybe it's that Greenland/Iceland naming trick?)
AGENTS OF FURY #32 (A story needs to be entitled "HAMMER TIME".)
AMAZING FANTASY #38: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (Just wave your hand and say "This is not the messiah you are looking for.")
BLACK PANTHER: KING OF WAKANDA! #46 ("Tony Stark getting his house in order"? I knew it! Age of Marvels is a secret outlet for HGTV!)
CAPTAIN AMERICA #54 (At least Sally Floyd is back to restore my sense of normalcy.)
CAPTAIN UNIVERSE: BEYOND #4 (Can we seriously fault anyone for being curious as to what is growing on Mars? Probably zucchini, but still...)
CROSSGENESIS #14 (Finale? Way to make me go back and find all my back issues. Seriously a wonderfully formatted adventure.)
DARK INTELLIGENCE #24 (A school of thought says booklong fight scenes are lazy writing. I call them &^$*ing brilliant.)
THE ENIGMA CORPS #6 (I am reminded of the Kingston Trio's song M.T.A.)
EˣCELSIOR #5 (Nothing dampens an awesome plan like "dealing with the human population".)
F² #21 (That solicit almost makes sense. cleghorn's editing needs work.)
HAWKEYE AND SPIDER-WOMAN #20 (He may have a bow, but does he have a violin to use it on? Oh, wait, not that kind of bow. Sorry about that.)
HULK IN HOLLYWOOD #1 (Hulk get close-up now, or Hulk SMASH!)
THE INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #46 (It's truly a comic book miracle!)
THE MIGHTY THOR #54 (The costs of resurrections have really skyrocketed post-COVID.)
MISTRESS OF KUNG FU season 2: “Brothers and Sisters” #11 (Surprise last page is shorthand for "I came up with next issue's plot now and wanted to eat up space.)
PETER PARKER, THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #28 (Hasn't Peter seen the movie 21?)
SPELLBOUND #16 (The term ad-hoc coven scares me.)
UNCANNY X-MEN #54 (Why are Steve and Clea knocking? The doorbell is broken, right? I know, read the book.))
VENOM: AGENT OF SHIELD #7 (The Redeemer seems like a villain with a good sounding name. That's how it would be done.)
