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.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

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?

I look more rad than Lutheranism
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.
