I got back into comics about 6 months ago.. id still be lost if not for this channel... this weekly show and the best of the month shows are must watch.
Another great Weekly Comic Book Review episode, Robbie. As sometimes happens, the PickOfTheWeek not on the original pull list this week but added for the LCS visit later today. Thanks again, Robbie.
I like the wolverine coming out rn. The first 2 issues have me hooked for a bit atleast, I just ordered the first book of percys run so depending on how much I like that I also have nothing other than ultimate Spider-Man
Great reviews, glad you covered so much Image. I can agree though, marvel has been messing up. I wont even buy a red band anymore after two issues i got with no cussing and hardly any violence
I thought I was the only one who remembered that Cold War book from Aftershock. Hayden started that and Wasted Space when they were 19! I fully believe they're gonna be remembered as a titan of comic book art when it's all said and done.
Speaking Marvel, I'm still in on Hulk, and Thor, as well as the Ultimates and Ultimate Spidey. Thor is the best Marvel book going, Al Ewing nailing classic Thor/Norse Asgardian lore.
Those of us who’ve been collecting comics for several decades may recall when Action Comics went weekly, one issue after the book’s 50th anniversary (#600). For 42 issues, Action was $1.50 when every other comic was 75 cents, and Superman only appeared in the center spread in what amounted to a Sunday comics page. Dont know how well it sold, and it had some classic covers but it’s not a run that has stood the test of time (history has really ignored it). At least it’s only $5 a week and not something like $10. (The old Action Weekly was 64 pages for double the price.)
I’m one of those weirdos that doesn’t even collect Action or Superman, but I hope they do weekly until it catches and surpasses Detective. Action is the granddaddy and should have the highest legacy numbering lol
Isn't Action ending the weekly thing in a couple of weeks? I dig Action, but my pull list don't need an extra book every week. DC killing it lately, and this from an old school Marvel guy.
I like the idea of a new wonder woman origin... however I don't like the design of her horse... I was thinking it will be more like LOTR ring wraith's horse 😂🤣
Love what DC has been doing lately, but you definitely seem a little more critical of Marvel stuff then you do DC or Independents. There have been some Marvel comics I think might have made Pick of the Week if they were DC or Image.
Marvel is absolutely floundering. They have been for years now. I'd say aside from a few exceptions, (Immortal Hulk, Krakoa, New Ultimate Universe North FF, etc.) the C.B. Cebulski era of Marvel has been extremely middling and focused on nostalgia pandering, greatest hits, and familiarity, and less on innovation and creativity. With the announcement of Spider-Verse vs Venomverse at NYCC, we can see where their ideas lie. One World Under Doom is a step in the right direction and sounds awesome, but I don't know if it's enough.
Yeah Robbie I really don't know about that teenage mutant Ninja turtles and their new run... It feels so far from source material that I don't even want to bother with it... I hate the fact that the turtles are not ninjas hiding in the sewer anymore... After the mutant Town ark I dropped off.. came back in their relaunch to find out that still not back to source material... Come on man Michelangelo's a movie star ?? give me a break.
Regarding Marvel; then why are you not reading Incredible Hulk this week? This features a strong artistic team. And I thought you liked Spider-Boy as well? While I value a critical examination of marvel's output, and the inconsistency of some of it's titles etc. I do feel that many people simply enjoy bashing on Marvel and certain points of view. Moreso, than on titles from other publishers. Or champion titles whose redeeming quality is a lower cover price with a thick card stock cover and little else.
Decided to "micro" dose this morn...it DEF wasnt a micro dose lol. Currently reading comics to remain sane lol, ty for the reviews big homie! dropped 90 on the 3 absolute variants from Skottie young!
As someone who has just gotten back into comics within the last 6 weeks. This guys a huge help and I’d be lost without him!
Jumped back in at a good time everything DC is putting out is good.
He's the best
Congrats, and welcome!
I got back into comics about 6 months ago.. id still be lost if not for this channel... this weekly show and the best of the month shows are must watch.
Yeah Robbie is great! Welcome back dude. Anything in particular made you wanna read comics again?
DC got me dropping 20-30 bucks a week now.
Same
Yeah, just added like 5 books to my pull list and historically I have not been a huge DC reader.
Another great Weekly Comic Book Review episode, Robbie. As sometimes happens, the PickOfTheWeek not on the original pull list this week but added for the LCS visit later today. Thanks again, Robbie.
Learned about you from Gem Mint this week, glad i did. Awesome reviews!
I'm the biggest Marvel fanboy around and I have nothing to pull from them this week. I barely pull anything from them these days come to think of it.
I like the wolverine coming out rn. The first 2 issues have me hooked for a bit atleast, I just ordered the first book of percys run so depending on how much I like that I also have nothing other than ultimate Spider-Man
right there with you.
Great reviews, glad you covered so much Image. I can agree though, marvel has been messing up. I wont even buy a red band anymore after two issues i got with no cussing and hardly any violence
I got my books early this week, absolute wonder woman was a great story! Super excited for the rest of the series. 🔥
I thought I was the only one who remembered that Cold War book from Aftershock. Hayden started that and Wasted Space when they were 19! I fully believe they're gonna be remembered as a titan of comic book art when it's all said and done.

fantastic four should not be overlooked either. one of marvels best ongoings
I loved The Sacred Damned, and agree that I hope we see more of that character with that team.
DC has been killing it the last few years 🔥
GL Dark was 🔥🔥🔥! So surprised at your take.
“When they stop being polite that’s the real world” 🔥🔥🔥

Totally agree with your take on absolute WW. a character that this absolute makeover is perfect for.
The twists and turns in this story are unbelievable! Feels like a movie!
Thanks for your efforts Robbie.
I drop every book that goes weekly as a rule. I look forward to reading it on the app in a few months
I’m one of those weirdos that doesn’t even collect Action or Superman, but I hope they do weekly until it catches and surpasses Detective. Action is the granddaddy and should have the highest legacy numbering lol
Gustaffo is a friend and I’m so happy for him to be killing it!
Great work as always
Thanks Robbie Station great video as always 👍
DC rules! I m All in !
I got my Absolute WW, need to read it soon!
Isn't Action ending the weekly thing in a couple of weeks? I dig Action, but my pull list don't need an extra book every week. DC killing it lately, and this from an old school Marvel guy.
Yes. It’s only during the month of October
Got a big stack this week and excited to hear the DC books have been great. Sad for Iron Man though lol. Great review

What happened to the weekly pop culture wrap up
Marvel is absolutely floundering. They have been for years now. I'd say aside from a few exceptions, (Immortal Hulk, Krakoa, New Ultimate Universe North FF, etc.) the C.B.

I was thinking about iron man but no thanks now.
Mick-el Hah-neen
Mikel Janin is pronounced: Mick-L Hahn-ning.
I did not like AB WW at all.. huge pass sorry
Gl Dark loved the art but yeah the story kinda fell flat.. not sure if I’d bother to pick up the rest
Yeah Robbie I really don't know about that teenage mutant Ninja turtles and their new run... It feels so far from source material that I don't even want to bother with it... I hate the fact that the turtles are not ninjas hiding in the sewer anymore...

plastic and potential.
First?
Yes
I only buy ultimate Spider-Man I should have skipped last weeks. But nothing is worth picking up from marvel right now.
Yeah, the only Marvel I read is Ultimate Spider-Man
That detective comics title looks like crap tho...
Marble sucks….they cant even do asm n x men proper these days
I don't know you
One becomes many only in a crowd. This indulgence will bring us all down. Robert is WAF now.
Decided to "micro" dose this morn...it DEF wasnt a micro dose lol. Currently reading comics to remain sane lol, ty for the reviews big homie! dropped 90 on the 3 absolute variants from Skottie young!
