    Watchmen and the Dark Knight were awesome reads. I go to a local used book store and get graphic novels for around $7.00 in great condition. Yep, love em.

    I heard the Civil War arc was pretty good...It's all fair play and heroes take sides and die

    Anyone read any of the new GI joe comics? They are really good too.

    Johnny The Homicidal Maniac and any other Jhonen Vasquez comic I would recommend. I really like Axe Cop too.

    I'm going to have to check it out, thanks guys! Looking at the quick synopsis - this looks to be a really interesting story line ...

    100% One of the best marvel stories created along with House of M. Just picked up; Wolverines Death Issue 1, Deadpool vs Hawkeye #000 and Deadpool vs X Force #4 Really entertaining stuff

    One day damn-it ... they really need to make a good Hulk movie. Mark Ruffalo can get the job done. I would be interested to see how they would integrate Planet Hulk / World War Hulk into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

    Just got the Civil War on Amazon. Going to read it during my break at work today.

    They could bring Hulk (Planet Hulk) into the Guardians of the Galaxy storyline but I dont know if they want to do that

    That would be interesting, so something would have to happen in the 2nd Avengers movie - maybe someone turns Hulk against the Avengers and they ship him off. The only thing is World War Hulk had so many awesome characters that aren't in the MCU.

    That would be sick if they made it work like this

    ***POTENTIAL SPOILERS [just in case]***
    - Avengers 2
    - Planet Hulk (Hulk being sent away)
    - GOTG 2 - GOTG goes after Hulk.
    - World War Hulk?
    - Avengers 3?
    ***POTENTIAL SPOILERS [just in case]***

    In between those movies, they should add a Solo Thanos movie that would be sick [between WWH and Avengers 3].

    I don't want to be the guy that almost ruined the Leftovers Thread lol apologies about the Spoilers thing.

    That would be awesome but I doubt they would use that angle in the cinematic universe. Just because I think it may be to many space environments around the time of Star Wars release date. But if they do would I be the happiest fan boy.

    -Just picked up the Preacher today, looked interesting and it only cost it 3$ for the first book

    Heard great things about Preacher...Seth Rogen is bringing it to AMC as a tv show. That and Walking Dead is a great lineup.

    I love cosmic stories and more Galaxy stuff would be great...The big problem is that Silver Surfer and Galactus are with FOX...Those cocksuckers ruined Firefly and are ruining Fantastic Four.

    Marvel tried to buy back the rights to Surfer and Galaxtus but it didnt happen...For a solo Thanos movie it is ideal to have the Silver Surfer, and lets be honest a film where Silver Surfer goes against Thanos or Galactus fighting Thanos would be mega-epic.

    Alas, fuck Fox.

    -No Way! I got start reading that, so little time!!! Good on Seth, I thought it was a lesser known comic
    -I love it to but will mainstream USA love it? Yeah fox messed up on Deadpool for X-men Origins. Also the new FF4 looks awful so far, a black human torch...Why?
    -But Fox did make the new X men Futures Past and First Class and those are classics
    -That battle would be awesome and current Marvel/Disney could get it down they need to buy it back already. Cause at least sony plays fair.

    You can read through it and see if it's your style or not. It's a 5 year old telling the story to his brother who draws it all out.

    Civil War is freaking sick. Never really liked Iron Man, but geez he's taking it to a whole new level.
