Well, it's been about a year, so it's time for Marvel to relaunch again, cause big numbers scare them.

So Marvel Now is coming back...yay.

The All New All different Marvel was a tremendous failure, so i am not surprised with this creative decisions, but i don't know if this is how you should correct it, because in the end Marvel comics is just reinforcing the notion that story rooted comics are over with the current editorial, and in 2017 there has to be another Pr, so for people like myself that drop Marvel comics one year ago, what is really the point of coming back to read this comics if this is just a pr cycle?

That's two things today that make me happy that I dumped non-Star Wars Marvel.

I hope they come back with some really good books. Ultimate's is the best thing I have seen from marvel. We need back Wolverine,Thor and Banner enough with this nonsense already.

Not surprising they've said it multiple interviews that they're going for more of a TV model where they want to renumber each year with good jumping on points for new readers. It's not perfect, but I think this model works better overall than asking someone to do the same thing on issue 50+ where it's not always clear what a good jumping on point is.

Sad that you won't see natural number milestones but if it's more approachable to new readers it's practically a must, because I wouldn't want them to pull a New 52 and just hit the restart button on a lot of things.

I don't mind them re-launching every year, but I wish they'd come up with a new name for it.

@Feartheliving: And people do buy number ones. People wonder why Marvel is the top selling publisher, it's less to do with quality and more about clever business practice. Events and number ones sell, so they do them constantly.

Well the site user base in particular tends to lean more in the DC direction from what I've noticed. The ones who tend to slander Marvel more often than most make it an obligation to remind the site frequently that they don't read Marvel if you pay attention to the main articles comment section. DC has largely been disappointing in the New-52 from what could have been done with properties and what was hyped to happen but I'm hoping Rebirth will get it right this time. (Marvel has not been without their faults), but the Vine userbase tends to be more critical when discussing Marvel's faults.

Marvel is so pathetic. The constant relaunches and gimmicks like "TR8R Cap" just come off as so desperate. If they lost the gags and actually let their books git double digitals, they probably wouldn't even be leading the sales charts.

I don't think there's a bias for either, CV is just naturally pessimistic.

If anything, Marvel gets criticized on its comic decisions more and DC gets criticized on its film and tv.

That's a good way of describing it, which is strange that a site like this would have a pessimistic community. You are right about DC film and TV, that would be the other side of the coin.

Maybe they realized that "All New, All Different" is just a really really lame name for their comic books. Either way any kind of change is welcome at this point.

Not a surprise. I just hope the quality of their books improves. I didn't care that they called themselves "All New-All Different". I do care that except for Lemire's Hawkeye book, I wasn't enjoying their comics. Oh well, at least the MCU is still doing well.

Sigh, of course it is. Fingers crossed this doesn't turn out to be another gimmick filled relaunch.
