I have gotten back into them lately.

I am a Hulk homer and have read most of his comics.

I have read all of the Walking Dead to date.

I like Thanos as well.  Have read most of the comics that involve him.

I have recently started reading the Dark Horse's "Conan" series

I recently bought the two monster "The Sandman" omnibuses.  I heard it is an awesome series but haven't started them yet

And I have read most of the Saga series to date 

I am severely lacking in DC comic universe.  Don't read any DC comics

DC comics have been very bad lately imo. The only book that has been good in their stable has been Snyder's Batman, and even that is heading into meh territory with the "new status quo." 

 

Most of the books on my pull list now a days are image. The Walking Dead, Invincible, Saga (which is awesome), Southern Bastards, Black Science, Manifest Destiny.. All our awesome books 

 

Marvel has a couple of books that have been good as well.

The new Secret Wars has been amazing, Jonathan Hickman did an incredible job building up to it the past couple years with his Avengers/New Avengers series and it's paying off immensely

I have Secret Wars #1 and #2, but I haven't read them yet.  One of the reasons is because I haven't read any of the build up to it so I was afraid I wouldn't know what was going on.  I literally just bought them and put them away for now.

They have a prelude volume coming out later so I might just wait and keep collecting them all and just stash them away until I can get the prelude.

Glad to hear it is really good so far.

Issue 3 is out too. Was really great. I know the comics app marvel has had something like that, but I get wanting a hard copy obviously. You can read Secret Wars and gain a quick understanding of what's going, but I think you do appreciate it more if you read the build up.

 

It is over 70+ titles though and some of the early issues in his mainline Avengers run weren't exhilarating, but some necessary character and world building.

A lot of the spin off SW titles are really great too. A lot of the time they can be a nuisance but they really fit and most are really interesting.

I've heard nothing but great things about Secret Wars. I have #1 and #2 in my pile of stuff that I need to read. I haven't read any of the build up really other than a couple of New Avengers arcs. I couldn't get into Hickman's Avengers. I heard most of the tie in issues were rad as well. Once school's out for summer and i'm off, I will get caught up with everything.

    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
