Marvel Universe jumping ahead eight months after ‘Secret Wars’

ALL-new, all-different

It is a tried and true tactic used when a comic company wants to create a certain sexiness in the wake of their Universe’s reboot-relaunch-refreshing-refrying. They end their CATALYSMIC EVENT with some status-quo demolishing resolution. And! And then! They jump in time. SUCH INTRIGUE and CURIOSITY follows. Marvel, post Secret Wars, is no exception.

Monday Morning Commute: The Law. How Very Trashy.

how trashy

Welcome friends, to the weekly Commute. It’s early Monday evening as I type this. WWE’s finest thespians babbling incoherently on my Tele-Visor. Mrs. CaffPow preoccupied, whipping up some cupcakes for some sort of party at work. The sky is dark, the heart is light. My semester is over for a couple of weeks.

‘Secret Wars’ #1 is Marvel’s best-selling single-day digital comic ever. In any universe.

it's a fucking SEVCRET!!!

Months of hype have prevailed! You, me, and a bunch of other dickhead slime lord wonderful humans went and bought Secret Wars #1 on Wednesday. On our digital tablet companions. Making it the best selling single-day digital comic for Marvel, ever. And I enjoyed it! I had pretty much no idea what was going on, but it has roped me in enough to enjoy the ride. Hickman Philosophy (AW, YIS) and the gorgeous artwork doing their jobs.

Monday Morning Commute: A Secret War On Planet Sunshine

seecrettt

It’s getting nice out, folks. The sunshine is popping here on the Northeastern seaboard of the Empire. Temperatures are in the 80s today. The sky is blue. It’s almost enough to get you through the workday alone. If you’re one of those people who can appreciate leaving to Sol smiling upon your face, and not lament the fact that you’re indoors for eight-hours of its beauty. I am one of those people. So I’m feeling pretty fucking content, today. But that doesn’t mean I ain’t sweating a bunch of stuff this week. So Monday Morning Commute shall, of course, run its course. It just means that I’m going to be moderately less depressed as I toil through the week towards enjoying these arts, farts, and sundries.

Marvel ending 33 comics during ‘Secret Wars’ event

Secret Wars.

Marvel comics. All comics. Are generally like the Universe itself. Death. And Rebirth. A cyclical dance for all of sequential-art eternity. So though apparently Marvel is canceling thirty-three fucking comics during Secret Wars, you’d be daft to think rebirth won’t logically follow. All-Fancy Uncanny Glimmering Thor. X-Forceful Assembling Avengers and so forth.

Marvel reveals ‘Secret Wars’ comic ‘1872’, starring Sheriff Steve Rogers

1872.

Let me talk about the zillionth Secret Wars tie-in I’m stoked about! 1872! I know. I don’t really cover DC here anymore. MAYBE!, my excitement will be rebooted when their post-Convergence line-up hits. But until then it’s straight MAHHVEL FANBOY HEAH FROM MY SEAT IN BAWSTAHN KEHD.
