The SDCC interview videos are apparently not working on my laptop. I am using Windows 8 and Google Chrome. The video does not have a play button but the outline for the box on the page is there. I have never experienced this before with chrome here. I tried the basic trouble shooting but it didn't work.

@undeadpool (though OTHER setups aren't handled as well)

I see what you did there.

Spot on review, I would have given it a 4.5 though (I know you can't, I would have rounded down too). I think it leads to a nice mystery to it though and has an interesting enough lead in to the secret wars tie in to make it worthwhile.

@greenarrowfan12: That is awesome news

Hello everyone.

Long time listener second time question-er (?)

I have noticed, and I am sure others have too, the differences between Marvel's and DC's styles when it comes to quote-unquote cannon and continuity. While I am more of the good story trumps continuity, it seems that DC makes everything count always no matter what and Marvel has more of a it-was-popular-so-it-counts (Civil War, World War Hulk) and it-wasn't-popular-so-ignore-it mentality (Original Sin, Age of Ultron...). do you prefer one style to another? Personally I prefer Marvel.

Another related question I have is that given the Marvel crossover history since 2005 (when House of M came out) and now with Axis recently ending; if someone only read the crossovers, what would they think of the Marvel Universe or comics in general? I know several people who only read trades and that got me thinking since the event trades are always so flashy.

Here are the major crossovers by year: 2005 House of M, 2006 Civil War, 2007 World War Hulk, 2008 Secret Invasion, 2009 Fall of the Hulks(?) (Light year I guess), 2010 Seige, 2011 Fear Itself, 2012 Avengers vs. X-Men, 2013 Age of Ultron and Infinity both, 2014 Original Sin and AXIS. There are others but these are the main ones. Here is a link to the Wikipedia page if you are curious: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publication_history_of_Marvel_Comics_crossover_events

Thanks for taking the questions.

I don't know but it wouldn't surprise me. It seems that all of the smaller, different books get cancelled. Which sucks because X-force is so good.

This looks pretty good. The last run was good, not as good as Uncanny X-force but still good. It is a nice alternative to Hickman's stuff. Plus the return of Brother Voodoo is a nice touch that was one thing I didn't like about the end of the Bendis run killing off so many characters

Hope has been in Si Spurrier's X-Force and it has been really good.

As someone who isn't reading futures end, this is very confusing...

I loved the original secret wars. It was the first trade I ever bought. Here is hoping this holds up to that.

I pretend the others didn't happen...

Caps broken shield looks just like in Secret Wars when Dr. Doom tries to kill everyone with the Beyonder's power.

This trailer was epic!
