A quick question: Are you guys going to review the new Marvel Now! titles something similar to the new52? Yes I know alot of the Marvel Now! titles are $3.99 but maybe between the 4 of you (Jamie D. Pants, Murd & Mike) that you all could share show copies & try out a series at the 1 month mark, then 6 months then at 12 months & report back. I liked this or not that didn't grab me as a public service for all the geeks out there. Also I am not saying stick w/ a $3.99 for 6 months if you don't like it then by all means drop it like a bad date (or an overcooked steak). Just stick w/ the ones you are interested in.
Thanks again for all that you guys do.

Truthfully, after reading almost all of the DCnU books in the original run, I don't know if I could handle doing that experiment again.

they say this series is a buildup of years worth of stories? yeah, all that buildup with cyclops' character especially and now he's gonna be shunted off to the sides. and with the solicitations featuring the all new xmen, their younger selves coming to this future? kinda reminds me of when Marvel had the teen Iron Man.
not very excited for Marvel NOW!
And that Illuminati issue goes back in time, lot of AvX is bouncing around. You'd think Marvel could put everything out the way it's suppose to be but that's just not the case.
In some cases, the person with the speciality (in this case Mike) has an unforeseen event that makes him unavailable for the episode. With something that's time sensitive (such as this) you can't always postpone the recording.
It's great to hear from everyone on these episodes, but some times that doesn't work. There's plans to do the final ep with Mike, but if he's unavailable (or if Mr Jamie "Avengers" D isn't available) we can't really postpone the recording an extra week.
