    I grabbed paperback Marvel masterworks VOL 1 of the golden age comics yesterday for $7!

    I also just finished Secret Wars recently and it picked up at the end and overall I enjoyed it. After that I started House of M and I already love it.

    Just read the Secret Wars Warzones: Civil War trade, and I honestly liked it more than the original Civil War. Great miniseries. If you haven't read it yet, and you like Marvel, you really should.

    I agree - I thought it was much better than the original civil war series; I really disliked the original.

    I love Soule's writing. One of my favorite guys right now.

    Civil War was the first series I read. Been rereading it with all the tie ins since the movie came out

    I got 40 something issues in and have yet to read the rest. How far are you?

    Just started CW #3, which is the 23rd issue in the series. Got a long way to go

    Daredevil?! Not very good.

    I did like 27 a few years ago.

    The only tie in I remember anymore is the Wolverine one. Civil War was fine but it's basically been a constant ten years of non stop events at Marvel ever since.

    Question, if I don't have any prior knowledge of the superheroes, will I still enjoy the rebirth one-shots?

    Planning to get all of them just to see which titles I'd like to get (if any).

    Probably...they will give context in the books.

    Gotcha. Reading Identity Crisis now and just got hit right in the feels.

    Green Arrow Rebirth suddenly became a must-have for me

    Read through The City of Owls last night. I'm starting to just want to read all of the Batman books listed in the DC Essentials catalog haha. That would be way too expensive though. And I'm officially out of shelf space.

    Me after reading Morrison's and Burnham's Nameless: "What the fuck did I just read?"

    Me after reading Morrison's page by page explanation of Nameless: "What the fuck did I just read?"

    This felt like the first time I read The Filth where everything pretty much went over my head.

    I read the first issue and understood pretty much none of it

    Haha I was thinking of picking that up the other day too.

    Honestly, i would still recommend it for the art alone, its gorgeous and has some very inventive layouts. Story wise it feels a lot like 90's Morrison. Even though I barely understood it, I still loved my experience with it.

    I'm likely in the minority but that story to me was very anticlimactic and I felt like it wasn't as great as people make it seem.
    This is how I feel after I read anything by Morrison.

    @Colby Searcy haven't finished it yet so I can't really comment. That was such an investment early on. Hopefully the ending delivers.
