Since I don't flip right away, but put investing comics away and let them simmer, I'm noticing an awesome trend (for me at least) where variants et al that weren't doing anything are now skyrocketing. Have bunch of the Venom Variants that weren't doing much 1-2 years ago. Sadly I sold the Spider-Man for $140 2 months after it was released. But, now that that variant series has taken off, my 2 copies of Uncanny X-Force, Hulk, Iron Man, and a few others may just make up for it!

The price increase is a nice little surprise. I love when I don't check the hot books for a while, then look at one and see stuff that I picked up a couple years ago go up. Sold the X-Men Legacy for like $40 2 months after the release date, but also sold the Amazing Spider-Man at the same time for $140 Feeling better now though, as I have AT LEAST 2 of the X-Force, plus The Hulk, Defenders, FF, Iron Man, and probably another X-Men and Avengers book. Thought a lot of these weren't going anywhere at the time.

Moi aussi. What's happening with it??? Is it done, or will more be produced??? Everytime I go to revise my monthly list/new orders, I never know whether to take it off or not (along with Blackacre, et al.).

The best Cable would be Clancy Brown, voice, look, and size would be perfect. ....Oh, and he can act, too.. You're right and he would be a great pick. (thumbs u He's gotten too old for that part unfortunately. I'd sure take the prison guard from Shawshank or the leader of Earth 2 or the Kurgan.. He has a recurring role on Sleepy Hallow and it's great when he is in the episode. Cable's supposed to be old though, like 50's or so.

He'd be a good pick too. He is a great actor and even in smaller roles like he had in Gettysburg, he takes over the big screen. (thumbs u Or the Hulk, since he has a big body and miniscule tête.

Si. But, they never REALLY do (enough, that is). Also, he IS supposed to be 6'8" , 350lbs. (Warpath is supposed to be a WHOPPING 7'2"!, but a lean 350lbs.). Hahahaha.

It was Fox, but regardless, Bishop had no business being in DoFP. Ditto for Blink and Quicksilver, but he was a highlight. I hear you though. Sometimes it's a step from page to screen. Other times it's a leap. Well....he has a lot more business than many of the characters there. Not in the classical story sense, but in the fact that he's a time traveler, is from that future, is in follow-up storys from that future,etc.

They also had 70 years of Cap material and they chose a storyline from 2005. I think you can't get too caught up in a movie being like a comic or book. There are tons of movies based off books that are inconsistent. There is a difference translating from reading to viewing. Ya, but unnecesary or baffling changes are what's goofy. Also, on the subject of getting a good actor, a good actor should be able to conform to a range of characters (within reason).

So, is everyone going to rail on Avengers 2? The backstory for Ultron is going to be changed since Pym is not the creator. Nebula and Yondu in GOTG look nothing like their comic book counterparts. Groot's speech pattern was nothing like the comic counterpart. Heimdall looks nothing like his comic counterpart. Bucky and Steve Rogers were not roughly the same age as shown in the movie. Modok appearance is much, much different in the comic. Sam Wilson in the 616 universe is pretty far removed from a military man in the comic. Jarvis is a butler, not a computer. I could go on and on here. Even how the Avengers came together in the comics has nothing to do with how they were assembled by SHIELD on the big screen. The number of liberties the movies and TV are taking with these comic characters is quite huge. Having a decent actor play the part seems to be the least offensive change IMHO. All things you listed where reasons why Marvel movies are very so-so for me. Speaking of black characters, Bishop could have been awesome in X-Men. Get your A or B list actor for him. He's an interesting character, both visually and story-wise. Don't have to try and change characters, and maybe we wouldn't be stuck with Teen Wolf Beast and the same old characters yet again. .....but, they decided not to use him. Great move, Marvel. I agree. Hillbilly Yondu ? What, Jar Jar Binks wasn't available ? Hahahaha!!! Ya, I mean, cmon. I really don't know the character, but after reading about him for two minutes on WIkipedia,....ya, no. And, what, they were DYING to get A-Lister Michael Rooker???

(thumbs u I like the cut of your jib.
