The Outhouse - The Greatest Comic Book Forum

...you never expected to be enjoying. Or five years ago you never thought you would be enjoying.

Me, I never thought I would be reading another Nova and Guardians of the Galaxy comic and enjoying it as much as I do.

And if someone told me that Nick Fury leading a bunch of new recruits of unknown kids would be a badass as it was, I would just laughed at them. But fuck, this comic is one of my favs coming out of Marvel.

Ghost Rider

Way really brought the awesome with Deadpool 10. It's been medicore to good at best before, but even then I expect anything Way does to be horrible, so it's still a surprise.

Nova, GoG, Green Lantern Corps. I hate cosmic stuff normally but there awesome.

Secret Warriors - This could have gone so wrong but somehow it works.

Supergirl - Never been a fan outside of her appearances in Teen Titans, but her title is fun since Kandor was found.

Scalped - I wasnt sure about it when I heard about it. A crime book set on an indian reservation. Buts its so cool.

Incredible Hercules - I love herc but I didnt think he could hold his own title. Boy was I wrong

Dark Avengers - REALLY???? It shouldnt work at all but it does.

X-Force/Cable - Neither book should work or be good yet both are.

Invincible Iron Man. I really don't like the idea of Norman Osborn running the world (or even being alive), but Matt Fraction has made it work. Plus he has taken an idea I'm not normally a fan of (giving a 'normal' supporting character powers) and made it work with Pepper Potts. He's even made Maria Hill bearable.

Ghost Rider, Action Comics, Deadpool, DArk Avengers, there are a whole bunch. But those are the books that for various reasons I should hate but enjoy the heck out of regardlessly.

I'm the same with Nova and Guardians, I never liked cosmic stuff.

Outsiders and Iron Fist, I never thought they'd get new series.

Indie comics, with my early experiance with them I thought they were pretty lame.

cause early indie comics were lame... :p
unless you are talking about First or Comico, that stuff was pretty cool.
Indie comics are always an experience, so much of it is so pretentious. but at the same time that allows those guys to take more risks and that is how we end up with amazing things like Strangers in Paradise and Comic Book Comics.

Image Comics actually. Some of the guys I hung out with read stuff that looked like X-men ripoffs to me.

Early on yeah. That's cause everyone that started the company came from the X books. Yeah Image has really become one of the top publishers of good solid different kinds of books recently. Proof, Bad Dog, and Four Eyes are all in my personal Top Ten currently.

Hulk.
I wanted the Planet Hulk/WWH story line to continue and was not thrilled about Pak leaving and Loeb coming in and renumbering it at 1... but I love this book, it is ridiculous but it is also fun... and McGuiness is awesome.

X-Force. I hated the Liefeld shit and expected this to suck....I was WRONG.

GotG. Cosmic isn't normally my bag, but I love this.

Empowered. The T&A isn't for me, but the hilarity is.

and

FABLES. I thought I'd hate this, alot. I love it to bits. It makes me happy.
