Not one to rest on his laurels, McGregor then set out to raise the bar once again, sending T’Challa to the American South to investigate the murder of Angela Lynne and its connection to the Klan and the history of the Soul Strangler. A challenging storyline by a challenging storyteller, you’ll read it and so much more in this much anticipated hardcover classic! Collecting JUNGLE ACTION #6-24.

Cover by ALEX SCHOMBURG
From the heart of the Golden Age of Comics, the white-hot hero of the decade, the Human Torch, comes burning at you with another exciting quartet of never before reprinted comic adventures! Between keeping America safe on the homefront and fighting the Axis powers abroad, the Torch and his kid sidekick Toro have their work cut out for them. They’ll face Nazi rockets, Gestapo madmen, fifth columnists and more as they fight the good fight for the U.S.A. The action really gets going in the massive, 45-page “Death Dance of the Atlantic†when the Torch and Toro find the Sub-Mariner manning a Nazi U-boat. It’s an action-packed dash to capture comics’ most tempestuous sometimes-hero and decode the Axis’ secret signal system, told in the manner that made Marvel great. Backed up by solo Sub-Mariner tales, along with the boy adventurer Jimmy Jupiter and humor shorts by the likes of Basil Wolverton, every issue is a cornucopia from Marvel’s early years. Dig into the Golden Age and dig into history! Collecting HUMAN TORCH #9-12.

Cover by LEINIL FRANCIS YU
It’s the year 1602 — and though there are characters you might think you know, none of them are the same as you remember. There’s a young man named Peter with amazing spider-like abilities — but instead of New York City, he’s a proud resident of the settlement at Roanoke. There’s a group of four adventurers endowed with amazing powers — but instead of a spaceship, they steer a boat. And the rampaging giant known as the Hulk? Well, he’s pretty much the same. Though King James of England might prefer things stay the same, the Earth is in flux — with much of the change occurring across the Atlantic in the New World. Though Sir Nicholas Fury and the super-powered Witchbreed may have disappeared, more and more superhumans are making themselves known — which prompts the king to take drastic measures. Elsewhere, another ruler — Otto Von Doom of Latveria — is taking drastic measures of his own as he mounts an expedition to what he believes to be, quite literally, the ends of the Earth. Along for the ride are the beautiful but deadly Natasha Romanova, the bizarrely powered four who are frightful and a kidnapped playwright by the name of William Shakespeare. But hot on their flying ship’s tails are another super-powered quartet: the Fantastick Four! Collecting MARVEL 1602: NEW WORLD #1-5 and MARVEL 1602: FANTASTICK FOUR #1-5.

But Norman Osborn has decided he prefers suits to green masks and the authoritarian law-enforcement agency H.A.M.M.E.R. to a weapons-enhanced glider. So when Castle put the former super villain in his sites, it wasn’t received quite as well. Since that failed assassination attempt, Osborn has tried to turn the tables on the Punisher. Despite his best efforts, Castle has eluded him to continue his surgical strikes on H.A.M.M.E.R.’s centers of power. With traditional means of bringing in his foe exhausted, Osborn turns to the Hood and his wide-reaching criminal network. Resurrecting 16 super villains killed by extreme vigilantes, he promises the super-powered thugs a second chance at life — if they bring him the head of Frank Castle! Collecting PUNISHER #6-10 and PUNISHER ANNUAL #1.

Black Widow: There ya go, Morpheus! Her own series, how ’bout that?
That is awesome! It is amazing that on the same day I wish for it in the forums it appears in the previews!
Holy Deadpool overload. I swear he guest stars more than Wolverine right now.
I used to be a die-hard DP fan, but lately its just been too much. And it doesn’t look like its going to get any better anytime soon.
I see quite a bit of titles that perk my interest, but I have to cry fowl on the so-called Heroic Age.
How can it be a Heroic Age if Spider Man still smells of demon? How can this be the age of heroes if your franchise is still in a Faustian deal? Or is Deadpool and Wolverine the new franchises and Spider Man has been reduced to “Editor’s Toy”?
Well, the all are his toys for now, but you know what I mean. ;p
Yeah, the Heroic Age doesn’t start here, this is the “end” of the dark age. Honestly, if you believe that every title will immediately become less dark and fun, you’re wrong. It’s going to take some time. And the fact that you keep bringing up Spider-Man in everything, even when it has nothing to do with him, is frankly, pissing me off. If you don’t like what Marvel’s been doing stop reading, I’d rather not have to see your constant Marvel bashing.
It’s Spider Man & Joe Q bashing, not Marvel. ;p
I don’t always shake my fist in anger at Marvel. In fact, I like what going on in X-Men. It worries me that my fave X-Man might die, but I have no complaints there. I’m also buying the “Strange” mini and “Vengeance of Moon Knight” is doing it for me so far. So I don’t have a problem with most Marvel titles.
Spider Man is another story. I’ve never thought of every story after BND as crap. I’ve read the 2 Black Cat issues and also got to see the new Rhino. I’ve even read the wiki updates. Some of those ideas I like. However, I still don’t see why OMD had to happen for these ideas to get implemented. Why did it have to be Mephisto? And why did Spider Man have to willingly comply? I still don’t see the point.
Yeah, I poked fun at the whole Avengers cancellation and added my 2 cents about Spider Man. I meant that in jest. As for Heroic Age, think about it. Steve Rodgers is back from the dead and technically fought the Red Skull to do it. Tony Stark’s redemption quest was to basically destroy himself to save the heroes from Osborne and he is basically going to be reborn for Siege. Doesn’t this looks like their tying up loose ends now so they can start up the Heroic Age quickly in Avengers #1?
Finally, I’m not trying to ruin your enjoyment of the site. However, I’m also not going to censor my opinion about something I like or dislike. I will concede that maybe I have gripped about Spider Man too much lately. The whole 2010 promo got my fire burning again. So I will stop at the very least for the month. But if you wanna convince me that these 2 years have been the best Spider Man we’ve had or that OMD had to happen; you’re gonna have to have a good argument.
Fair enough, and I agree with the OMD stuff, and it most certainly could have been done better. Although I feel that, with the Avengers stuff, the rebirth of Stark is being handled well and Reborn was about as good as you can get when it has to live up to Cap’s death. I’d wouldn’t say they’re hurrying the Heroic Age, if anything it’s been bubbling since Wanda went insane, it can’t come soon enough for me.
Gone are all the myriad Avengers titles! Yipee!
I liked almost all of the different Avengers titles but I will certainly like the money I’ll be saving from those titles finishing up so I can go ahead and put it all right back into some other series that sucks me in.
I’m sorry for Deadpool that his master has decided to return and muck with him some more. I so can’t stand anything about Rob Liefeld and the fact that he’s back doing what he does so horribly drives me insane. I can only imagine that he’ll always have Deadpool standing behind things blocking his feet, he’ll be standing at impossible angles that even his healing factor couldn’t help, he’ll be standing in blinding all-exposing light and somehow his face will remain in shadows, the backdrop will change from non-discript vertical lines to non-discript horizontal lines, every character will have their faces chock full of lines making them look a million years old, also for the hell of it Deadpool and everyone else is going to have feathered hair that was out of style in 1993. Don’t get me started on all the half-jackets and gloves combos he loved drawing, oh and everybody has to have three long ass ponytails majestically flying around in the air even though they’re standing still in a building with every door/window/fan/air conditioner closed or turned off. Oh and bring on the pouches, pouches for everyone! You got a leg or waist or arm available, we gots the pouches. I bet that exposed neck could use a real sweet belt of pouches. Oh and for some reason lets throw in tiny noses and impossible body shapes. Ala his classic Captain America picture he drew. So yeah, I am heading out as soon as Deadpool Corps comes out to pick up my copies.
Just to add a little note to my own rant, if there are genuine fans out there of Liefeld, I don’t mean to insult you or your tastes, he just doesn’t do it for me. I have plenty of things that I like that others don’t and so I get that. It’s just my anger at his return and the apparent lack of any increase in skill over the years. You’d think that as a true artist that values his craft that he’d have practiced and looked at other people’s artwork and figured out how to correctly draw a foot or the female form without making her appear to have no functioning spine. I’m sure a lot of the artist that are considered great right now have grown leaps and bounds from where they started, most of which are probably bigger critics of their own work that anyone else could be and they strive to fix any short-comings. I have recently thumbed through some recent Youngbloods and other Liefeld titles that have released lately and seeing the new title on the list sent me on a rant. I’m not here just to bitch so let me regain some measure of composure here and say, “Hey, good list of titles coming out this April, I’m really looking forward to some of these!”
