    Any name is better than "Marvel NOW!"

    Between "Marvel NOW!" and "The New 52," neither of the big 2 companies have had a sensible name for their line for years now.

    You were Spider-Man then. You and Peter had agreed on it. But he came back right when you started feeling comfortable.

    Mighty Avengers needs to come back. The White Tiger needs her own series. Same goes for Spectrum and Luke Cage.

    I've disliked most Marvel "events" since "Onslaught" but it looks like they've put a lot of work into planning this one out and some very significant changes will happen as a result.

    I'll keep an open mind as some of the book concepts surrounding these changes are worth checking out.

    I'd welcome a White Tiger series BUT imo they need to pass the mantle back to Angela Del toro. Ava to me is annoying & her along with Power Kid pretty much killed any interest I had in both volumes of the relaunched Mighty Avengers.

    I'd be more excited if that rumor about a Miss America Chavez solo is true.

    -Pav, who would be hard-pressed not to buy that depending on the creative team...

    I agree. Loved Angela Del Toro. Marvel keeps making everybody young to appeal to something called "new readers" whatever that is.

    I can only speak for my LCS but the people I've noticed picking up those two books are very much the same crowd who come in week in & week out & not really alot of new faces. Are there some folks picking up those books who otherwise wouldn't really be interested in comics that much? Sure but to say new readers are "flocking" to those two books is a massive exaggeration imo.

    There's all sorts of ways to get comic books these days. I think the 'older' generations favor shops and the like, but newer fans? Tap of the screen works just fine, if not better.

    Yeah, one theory - which seems to be coming true - is that younger readers and girls in particular find it easier to get into comics now that they don't have to go into comic stores, which are often not very girl-friendly or kid-friendly places.
