Yes -- plus they say that Firestorm 6 is IC-related. I don't know if that means that those of us who don't normally read Firestorm will get it or not.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm looking at:
- Batgirl #57

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Just Identity Crisis #5 and Ultimate Spiderman #67 for me.

There is lots next week too.
But my list was what Teppy said plus Manhunter and possibly Firestorm.

Hey. New board.
I picked up the first three issues of Rogue the other day, and actually enjoyed them quite a lot. Anybody else reading it? The first issue of Nightcrawler kinda stunk, though.
Hmm. I just realized that the comics I'm reading regularly are Ultimate X-Men, Astounishing, and now Rogue. When did I turn into an X-Men fan and leave the Batverse behind?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Possibly the same time I became a Batverse fan and left the Spideyverse behind.

Teppy -- have you really left the Spideyverse behind? That's kind of sad.
(Obviously, there is something the creates balance amongst fans of various comic-verses)

Not in a "Spidey SUCKS!" kind of way; more of an Ultimate-Spidey-was-getting-too-navel-gazey-for-me way. And that was the only Spidey title I was reading. It's not that I'm not a Spidey fan, because he's my main man, yo. I'm just giving Ultimate a rest for now.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor
Ultimate titles lately have been enjoying the meta-references a bit much, making excuses to throw in imagery and such from the 616 Universe a bit liberally (prime example in UXM 52, with Jean's "third-grade Halloween costume" being identical to one of the classic Marvel Girl outfits from the 60s/70s).

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
I picked up "Identity Crisis" #5 on the way to work.
Gack. There is carnage. And how many things connect now confuse me more than ever.
