Bendis's Moon Knight is amazing.

Old Man logan is brilliant.

Fear It self was the last marvel event I enjoyed.

Frankencastle is goofy and I loved it.

Matt Fractions Iron Man is really good, even the first few volumes are spectacular.

It's amazing, a thread in Comics General about modern Marvel storylines and we haven't had any posts along the lines of.......

 

Bah, Marvel haven't produced anything worth reading since 1822. I refuse to read any of the tripe that they produce these days, and I'm too old to get to a comic shop now anyway. Anyone who reads Marvel Comics bilge now has the intelligence of a lobotomised slug. :blahblah::blahblah::blahblah:

Waid's Daredevil and Fraction's Hawkeye have been great so far.

 

I'm still enjoying Superior Spider-Man, but I'm also waiting for the other shoe to drop re: Pete coming back.

 

Venom was fun, I like the Agent Venom version of the character. I thought it was an interesting take on what had become a one note villain. Shame it got cancelled.

Amazingly I agree with Sean and Alex!

 

Old Man Logan is superb.

BWS Weapon X.

 

The crazy super hero style panel layout makes reading difficult, but it's pretty cool. I think if they want to make a really good Wolverine movie they should do a pretty close adaptation of that, but make it half torture/revenge movie like I Spit On Your Grave and half slasher movie like Friday The 13th, but Logan is the slasher, hunting down everyone in that laboratory one at a time. No muscleman for the lead, let Kevin Bacon do it, directed by John Carpenter or Ridley Scott lol

Havok & Wolverine: Meltdown is a 4 part series under the Epic label that is by far one of my favorites, and it's handily collected in Wolverine Legends Vol. 2

I also really liked "Marvels" and X-force vol. 3 (Angels and Demons, Old Ghosts, Not Forgotten, Necrosha, Sex and Violence)

 

Good luck (thumbs u

I completely forgot about this but just went and got my original issues out...I remember it was pretty dark for my young mind but thought it was awesome...I don't think they have done enough with Havok and Wolverine, friendship wise. Cool series.
