It was more that they were both in the power-suit-wearing-but-otherwise-normal-people genre. I feel like the new Iron Man suit is heavily influenced by Japanese designs and those were the only two I could come up with. And, you know, Power Rangers. I loved that show.JohnMayo wrote:I can see the Guyver influence but I'm not really seeing the Power Rangers aspect.boshuda wrote:It reminds me of live-action Japanese power-armor stuff like Guyver or Power Rangers.HassanT wrote:Just when I thought they couldn't make Iron Man's armor any uglier than the 90's, Marvel proves me wrong:

It amazes me too that it's the same Jason Aaron that does Scalped and superhero comics. Scalped is one of the best comics of recent memory - and his superhero stuff is totally hit or miss.BobBretall wrote:I picked up The Incredible Hulk #11 by Jason Aaron for $1.....
City of the Sasquatches???? Really? I can hardly believe the same guy wrote this who wrote Scalped. I'd like my $1 back.
Please Mark Waid! Marvel NOW cannot come quickly enough.
I have the same problem with Jason Aaron. His super-hero books are mostly miss for me. I don't think they lack logic and too campy. I dropped Wolverine because he had Sablretooth getting around with a jet pack.ctowner1 wrote:It amazes me too that it's the same Jason Aaron that does Scalped and superhero comics.

I thought it was interesting but I am worried about what the new title will be about. I don't think it is as clever as people think he was because there was a bit of a cheat in the reveal and this has been done before (Clone Saga).BobBretall wrote:Amazing Spider-Man #698
I had a "Hassan reading Invincible #97" moment just now when I read this book. I'm glad I decided to drop the title after #700.
For me this "twist" ranks right up with "Hey, the Spider-Man you been reading about for years is really the clone."
Terrible.
I am definitely NOT the core audience for Marvel NOW. I'm too Marvel THEN.
REALLY???HassanT wrote: I dropped Wolverine because he had Sablretooth getting around with a jet pack.
Yes it was. He had to get him from point A to point B fast and therefore he used a jetpack. Ridiculous. When I read his books, I feel no attachment to the characters. I need some attachment in order for me to be engage in the book.BobBretall wrote:REALLY???HassanT wrote: I dropped Wolverine because he had Sablretooth getting around with a jet pack.
That's really ridiculous.
That's exactly my feeling - the campiness factor - I dropped the Wolverine & XMen book after 2 or 3 issues for exactly that reason.HassanT wrote:I have the same problem with Jason Aaron.

AGE OF ULTRON #7 (of 10)
In an attempt to defeat Ultron two Marvel Heroes take it upon themselves to create an all-new Marvel Universe. But is the one they have created better or worse than the one they left behind? The event of the year just got INSANE!!
AGE OF ULTRON #8 (OF 10)
With the Marvel Universe turned inside out, who will take responsibility for breaking the world? And is there any way to put it back? Wait until you see who is in charge of the new world order and how they got there…! A reality-spanning choice is made this issue that will affect the Marvel Universe for years and years to come.
SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN #9
IT ENDS HERE! “SUPERIOR NO MORE!”
• The hottest comic in comics comes to a turning point that will get you angrier than you were after Spidey #700!
• The time has come to see who will live, who will die, and who will emerge as the one, true Superior Spider-Man!
Issue #1 is not even out yet. How exactly is this the comic "everyone" is talking about??NOVA #4
JEPH LOEB (W) • ED MCGUINNESS (A/C)
Variant Cover by Stephen Platt
The comic everyone is talking about continues!
Luckily, I think this will be a 'nothing' mini, as it was suppose to come out so long ago. Hard to tie anything into current stories when the story you are telling is 2 years old.BobBretall wrote:Is Marvel going to go all "Flashpoint" on us? I hope not....

Not sure what the 'spin' here is, but I also think this is too soon for the Peter return, and I am one that thinks they already have a set time to do it. Who knows? It is Slott and I am not falling for his siren song lure again!!!BobBretall wrote:This does not look like a solicit that will get me to come back.... Going here in issue #9 is a LOT sooner than I expected.
