February 7, 2013 11:40 am It seems like there are several people who have invested a LOT of money in reading books they don't like. I personally ONLY READ Hickman's books at this point and have tasted enough of the other Marvel books to know I don't like the writers. SO, my suggestion is to quit making yourself (and us) miserable by reading books you don't like. Let us enjoy the rich story-telling, interesting plot elements and link to history. You can have your "thought balloons" handed to you on a plate in some other book.

January 31, 2013 12:13 pm Could be we have been thrown into the middle of a story and if you continue to invest the payoff will be amazing! Take it from me, all of this interest that you guys have in this and the mystery is PART of the process.

January 31, 2013 12:11 pm Since you guys have so many questions and are so intrigued why don't you give Hickman a chance to continue to build on this? The art is amazing, the team combination is interesting and the story moves forward - better than the rest of the rehashed crap and dialog we see in the other books. At least we are going somewhere! If you don't like the book, don't sound so interested...

January 28, 2013 3:01 pm BC1 - I am with you. I am a Marvel Reader from the early eighties and right now the only books I read are Hickman's. He is a master of story-telling and this is the beginning of an awesome ride. I am surprised to see the negative comments and the desire to dumb down the comics so that the slow readers can catch what is going on. It is my opinion that the best comics have always pushed the envelope. We know that no one is reading Avengers because of the movie (sales have proven it), so why act like it. I love the team Hickman has assembled (sorry) and can't wait to LEARN what is going on with each of them. I feel like we have been given a great sample of what stories we might learn about - Captain Universe, Shang-Chi, New Mutants, Hyperion, Imperial Guard - good lord, the scope is huge! It could take years to unravel and why not, I am going to read the title until they give it to someone else. I hope they don't. Comics are better because of Hickman and his brand of intelligent story-telling. I just got the Secret Warriors Omnibus for Christmas and SUPER-ENJOYED the reread - I caught so much more and increased my enjoyment. You cannot say that about very many comics. All my Hickman stuff is read 2 or 3 times - if you could have digital dog-eared pages - only my Hickman books would have them. Sorry for the rant, but man, be patient and enjoy the ride!

January 10, 2013 2:25 pm Timm is the king for me! Bruce Timm's Batman is perfect and my favorite. As JCOGGS said, it still holds up well - I love Batman's look all the way through the series, even into the Justice League Unlimited. Honorable Mention for me: Darwyn Cooke and John Byrne!

April 15, 2009 11:13 pm Incredible episode - I agree with Conor - I love Miles.  Great character, great actor, great writing.  Lost never lets me down.  It looked like two new writers on this episode - is that true?  I feel like they took Haley Joel Osmet's character from Sixth Sense and grew him up.  I love his character arc too - but will he die when he deals with his "issues" like everyone else on the show?
