November 2, 2022

I have yet to start reading this pile yet. There’s been a lot going on, will get to it in the next day or two.

Mary Marvel has a lot going on. Poison Ivy’s story is reaching its climax. Batman’s robot problem continues. I completely forgot that I’d added Kevin Smith’s Quick Stops comic to my list, so that should be fun. I know nothing about Crossgen, so that should be interesting. When I get done with these two week’s of comics I will be able to catch up on the few X-titles that take place after Judgement Day, this issue of X-Men Red included. Frank and Matt have some Beast problems. I guess there are some Brood coming to Carol. I’m excited for this Hulk story-line to continue. Deadpool got a new run, and it’s part of the X-Men titles now instead of on its own (as you can see in the top corner). A few characters got their own team title in Tiger Division. Multiversal shenanigans continue in Savage Avengers and Avengers Forever leading up to the huge Avengers event next week. And the new Secret Invasion event started. Though this just looks like they’re trying to get readers into a similar mindset for the Secret Invasion series with this plot instead of a genuine sequel event to the original Secret Invasion (though I don’t think they need to keep doing that with all these rehashing of older events either).

Covers to follow

Here is the next Window Shades variant. As expected for a Deadpool cover.

This is just fun since it’s alluding to the Paramount logo.

Another gorgeous Jenny Frison variant for Ivy.

Funnily enough this made me think of the Window Shades variants, haha. I always love Bartel art, as you know.

Momoko’s art in the first variant was just fun and has nice details. The Artgerm variant here of Luna Snow was as fantastic as ever.

Even though I did miss a couple, this is the first variant of November’s (apparent) 90’s month theme for variants. I didn’t know this since I don’t think they did so many last year that took my notice, so when I got to updating my list 5 weeks before this pile’s weeks were to be looked at, I noticed that almost every DC book had a 90’s variant. Which is cool, but also meant this almost doubled the number of DC books I got and will get this month. But anyway, Look at this embossed foil cover! And the inside 90’s color-scheme and themes. Glorious! 90’s covers are certainly a weakness for me, haha.

This is probably my favorite cover of the bunch just because it’s like a Star Wars movie poster. They have one cover of this Revelations theme I’m waiting on the other one that came out this week and then a few others will come in weeks to come. And the actual Revelations issue comes I think in the next week from now or soon after. Also, I love that Iden Versio is on there, I wonder if she’s in the issue.
