10 Comics to Buy This Week: 6/20/2012

Astonishing, Nightwing, and Wonder Woman for me.

Walking Dead #99 sure does look great!

Wonderwoman and walking dead!

Really light week for me in terms of number of books, but they are very much anticipated. Saga and Daredevil.

Wonder Woman, Nightwing and Saga

Getting AvsX (hoping it's worth the $), Night-wing, Justice League and finally my favorite besides Snyder's BATMAN, Punisher. 
I recommend everyone to read Punisher for #1, it's an amazing book in my opinion.

Of course Nightwing...but I still need to checkout the previous 'Before Watchmen' issues...really want to.

f*ck all you guys hating on AvX. And that write up on AvX was completely wrong. First of all, they aren't mutant "extremists". That was Magneto a long time ago. Second, the phoenix didn't chose them, it's power ended up splitting into 5 after Iron Man used his new suit on it. It was meant for Hope, but it didn't work out that way. Oh, and I can't believe that stupid Astonishing X-Men wedding didn't happen yet. I've read the first 2 issues of Astonishing, and all they could focus on was that gay couple. Who reads comic books for that sh*t? Why would anyone want to pay $5 for a wedding comic book? Find something else to right about Majorie Liu. Damn.

this is why the event is bad.

Take note of the phrase "phoenix-killer armor."

The last time I check, if you had the power of the phoenix, you are pretty much all-powerful. It would be like having Jesus on your basketball team. wtf phoenix killing armor?omg that is so funny.

QFT! But AvX is still pretty horrible.

Marvel needs to get past, "Big threat attacks and heroes get a special power to overcome it." Most of the time Iron Man gets a new armor and heroes fight other heroes.

Plus it seems that nothing ever significant happens that isn't part of an event.

Saga, Walking Dead, AvX, and maybe nightwing

Are those new Phoenix-inspired costumes/design for the X-Men? Woah...they look...bad.

Birds of Prey, Red Hood and The Outlaws and Venom for this guy. Oh and also the conclusion of Transformers Autocracy.

Considering the previews, I wonder if the X-Men didn't feel they were hated enough already. At least before the Phoenix got involved the caped community had some good relations with them, but now that's going to be thrown out the window as well. Gambling with the entire world for their own benefit, check. Beat up and imprison anyone who doesn't agree, check. Possibly inching towards something looking like either child abuse if not sacrifice...maybe.

But I am looking forwards to see how this AvX issue turns out and how WW is going to get out of Hades with a noose around her neck.

I'm only interested in Wonder Woman.

Anyone notice that Cyclops looks like he stole his suit from Nightwing's wardrobe? It's the same suit as Nightwing's he is wearing.

Hey, Cyclops! Nightwing called. he wants his suit back.

I am very hesitant as to where AvX is heading. I will read number 6 and let's face it, I'm five issues in so I will probably finish it. Why didn't I learn my lesson from Fear Itself?

Glad to hear the X-Men tie-ins are decent because I have been VERY disappointed with the Avengers (main title, New, Secret). Nothing but retcon dreg and non-tie-in tie-ins.

I can see Cyclops' team being called extremists though, you would think that Cy-Wing alone would be very anti-Phoenix. Their actions do seem pretty extreme.

Last point of my ramble, the good thing about AvX is that Marvel now seams to remember that X-Men other than Wolverine still exist in the rest of the 616 universe.

Aww, no Hulk? The Mayan Rule thing is jamming to be more epic than the whole of AVX combined.

Its a good story arch as well GO ALPHA FLIGHT!. In terms of the the Astonishing X-men.... there is a slim chance ill pick that up. but if Alpha Flight is in it. then that is a definite Maybe.

From this list, Daredevil, Nightwing, and Wonder Woman. I'm also getting Birds of Prey, Blue Beetle, Captain Atom, and Winter Soldier. Good week.

Avx

Astonishing X-men

Daredevil

Hulk

Winter Soldier

Uncanny X-men

Dark Avengers

Ok, that settles it. I found it kinda hard to believe when people started recommending Wonder Woman to me... but you've convinced me. I'm gonna give it a shot. Nightwing looks like it could be interesting too...

@doordoor123: Plus it seems that nothing ever significant happens that isn't part of an event.

Agreed. That is the reason why I'm mostly reading DC, Dark Horse and IDW right now. There are very few good books coming out of Marvel right now in my opinion

@HempKnight757: No, they aren't doing a Phoenix Corps; it just happens the phoenix force has possessed a handful of X-Men. Hardly a corps and more like a temporary hive mind.

Wonder Woman!

From this list I am getting:

Avengers Vs. X men

Nightwing

From that list, I'm getting Wonder Woman, Saga, Daredevil, and the Comedian.

I'm getting a bunch of others, but the ones I am most excited about that didn't make this list are Casanova: Avarita #4, Venom #1, Baltimore: Dr. Leskovar's Remedy #1, and Dark Horse Presents #13

Avengers vs. X-Men It might be cool to see a series with the Phoenix Force X-Men. Usally im the one saying we already have too much x books. Saga i im done with. After reading how good it was i ran out and hunted down the first issue Milwaukee was all but sold out. After readiong 2 and 3 i just dont see all the interest.

Olivier Coipel starting art for AvsX? Hooray! It's starting to get much better now.

@Trodorne:

All I glimpsed was Sasquatch on the cover. But most likely he's just there to fill in space.

watchmen, punisher, saga, walking dead, wonder woman..... i'm going to go broke.

I kinda liked Colossusnaut :( I wanted the GREEN Hulk to fight him but it looks like the Thing and Red Hulk got there first.

Nightwing and daredevil are my safe zones.

I've got 14 Marvel books coming at me this week. I'm pretty sure that's the biggest week I've had yet in my relatively short comic-reading life.

I'm all DC, Image, and Dynamite. I'm really upset how Marvel has been handled. In fact, I'm furious. I really think it's messed up because of the head creative people at Marvel. I keep starting their events and stopping them because they're all the same. Once I can read a full event again, I'll know Marvel is back to doing anything good.

@mattwing87: Wasn't Justice League #10 delayed?

@doordoor123: I blame a lot of the people in control and Disney, I was willing to give AvX a chance but I stopped because of how the X-men were acting. I generally prefer DC's characters to Marvel's but there are still heroes over at Marvel that i like such as Captain America and Winter Soldier. I love Avengers Academy but even that was ruined this month by AvX.

Wonder Woman and Nightwing! did they even talk about their respective zero issues by the way?

@mattwing87: Wasn't Justice League #10 delayed?

Yup, unfortunately.

@moywar700: I'll agree that the event isn't that great, but it feels like everyone is just bashing on the x-men themselves. And the iron man suit wasn't meant to kill the suit, it was just Tony's last stand kinda thing. And it just ended up dividing its power.

Will be getting Wonder Woman and maybe Astonishing X-Men..considered dropping Wonder Woman before but thankfully I didn't cause its getting more exciting.

Comedian and Punisher

Phoenix Corps ?! Really ?! REALLY !?.................

And when did Cyclops turned into Nightwing ?!

Alabaster Wolves, Watchmen, Wonder Woman and Saga

The only one I got was Avengers Versus X-Men.
