Is anyone reading this?

What did you think?


So far, I'm intrigued. This book has the feel of X-Men without all the continuity issues.

I thought the art was great for the story, and really like this potential grooming of successors.

I might be way wrong, and I frequently am, but I think this might be the next Immortal Hulk, in terms of popularity.

I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for. drchaos private msg quote post Address this user
I grabbed multiple covers of the first issue but have yet to read it.

I enjoyed the book and will continue to read it to see how the characters develop. Reminded me a bit of Wolverine and the Xmen.

As far as value future value, I am not sure due to Marvel promoting the first issue. It will be interesting to see what the print run on this book was.

Out of curiosity, which was your favorite?
I got the standard and the Campbell one.

I like that Campbell cover.

Was it that high?

I only found out about it recently, and didn't see too much. I was thinking it flew under the Radar with the new Wolverine, Empyre and the Marvels series coming out.

I so stay away from the hype machine, though, so I might be way overestimating its chances to be valuable.

Campbell covers are always pretty great.

I got one of the 1;25 incentive covers. That one was probably my favorite.

Marvel previewed a few pages which ended up being the middle of the book. They also sent out all the interesting new character designs to a few outlets. That's how I first heard of it on CBR. I saw an image of Dormammu's son and thought it looked like Playstation's Sack boy from Little Big Planet.

Looking for 2 more of any of the non-ratio Covers. I been buying some possible modern key books in sets of 4. Let me know if anyone out there wants to part with 2 of them? MY LCS has a limit on stuff to buy on opening week and they are out.

If the viagra is working you should be well over a 9.8. xkonk private msg quote post Address this user
I picked it up because of the hype when my LCS still had a copy. I liked it, might stick with the first arc.

I picked it up since it's a Young & Delgado combo. Got and will stick with just the character spotlight covers. Read it and enjoyed the story line. There are 13 on the cover, lets see if Young can go more than 15 issues before he bails (DeadPool vol. 5 bitterness).



Forever famous last words...

@drchaos

Oh! I do like that one a lot.

I’ll have to keep an eye out for it, but I’m just happy to have the book.

I ordered from Westfield Comics and I'm waiting for my copy to arrive (probably with the March 2020 shipment.)
