The Mark Waid and Chris Samnee stint on Cap's book does feel like a very self-conscious 180 on Blecret Blimpire It's trying to make things really simple in a very complicated world, and Captain America has been tackling that world since… well the original Blecret Blimpire with varying success. All of that being said, Captain America[...]

Based on the 1984 Bruce Springsteen hit off the album Born in the U.S.A., Avengers: No Surrender is written by Mark Waid, Jim Zub, and Al Ewing, and issues #683-686 are mostly drawn by by Paco "Funky Cold" Madina, with some help by Joe Bennett on #684. In a press release, Marvel revealed Mark Brooks's covers[...]

Yesterday, a press release asked, "Where Is Wolverine And What Is His Shocking Secret?" Today, a press release declares, "Captain America: Back On Ice…The Answer Will Shock You!" The move to clickbait press releases is fitting in a way, considering the constant spamming of super-mega-crossover events, line-wide relaunches, and variant covers is basically the comic[...]

Based on the hit Bruce Springsteen song off his 1984 album Born in the U.S.A. — we assume — Avengers: No Surrender is co-written by Mark Waid, Al Ewing, and Jim Zub, and features a rotating art team of Pepe Larraz, Kim Jacinto, and Paco "Funky Cold" Medina. "In month two of NO SURRENDER, the rubber hits the road[...]

Venoms unite in this adventure, which brings together Spider-Man, Eddie Brock, and Flash Thompson. Is this a reunion worth remembering?

The Earth has been moved, and the planet is suffering for it. The Avengers are uniting to meet this threat, but will it be enough. Is it a good read?

Here's the actual description of the event, from the press release: "Co-written by Mark Waid, Al Ewing and Jim Zub with art by Pepe Larraz, Kim Jacinto and Paco Medina, AVENGERS: NO SURRENDER unites the casts and creative teams of three titles into one weekly book of exciting action It all starts with AVENGERS #675 this[...]

Certainly, the original Avengers seems to be important part of the upcoming Avengers: No Surrender event, with a lot of artwork centred around the original Avengers statue with the addition of mysterious new character Voyager. Avengers: No Surrender will be made up of the several Avengers titles currently being released, Avengers, USAvengers and Uncanny Avengers, creating[...]

Mark Waid has constructed a classic Captain America story perfectly opposing the most recent string of Steve Rogers tales Captain America is on his motorcycle, exploring small towns, and fighting injustice and cruelty when he sees it. Steve is soft-spoken and timid in the face of all the adoration He wants to encourage the best in[...]

That feeling continues here. It kind of feels like writer Mark Waid doesn't know what he wants to do with this team He built it, seems to like the characters, but doesn't know where to send them. Last issue did have some good character moments, particularly in regards to Thor convincing Falcon that he should continue to[...]

Now, with Jim Zub in the writer's chair and the subtraction of Deadpool, I am truly enjoying Uncanny Avengers for the first time since its creation. Mark Waid's All-New, All-Different Avengers was a darling of mine, too, until it split off into Champions and Avengers I followed the Champions for a good bit and was utterly[...]

But what if a character's legacy has been irreparably tarnished? When Captain America returns to Legacy numbering of #695 in November, writer Mark Waid and Chris Samnee will aim to put a fist through the smug face of the damaged reputation of Steve Rogers in the wake of Cap's fascist adventures in Secret Empire. "Our issues are[...]

In the continued saga of "Josh reads a past series and gets a thought," we now find ourselves revisiting Mark Waid's the Flash series from the early 1990s. I was reading the recently released trade of it, and found myself fixated on something that happened in #62, which was a "Year One" story for Wally West,[...]

That sounds like a lot to tackle, but it really is par for the course for Mark Waid's Champions. This could have easily been muddled by some attempt to try to make it more relevant to the overall story of Secret Empire However, it keeps it smart by focusing on only these three team members and[...]

It's independent Avengers meets relationship Champions in Marvel Legacy's next crossover from Mark Waid, Jesus Saiz, and Humberto Ramos! Traditional comic book wisdom dictates that one runs crossover events to boost sales after they've started to lag since the last line-wide rebranding, relaunch, or reboot that follows a blockbuster super-mega-crossover event But the ever-innovating House of[...]

pic.twitter.com/6UKgBieM3n — Kieran (@KingImpulse) July 5, 2017 Champions, by Mark Waid and Humberto Ramos, decides to follow the story that many of the Inhumans do not want to escape the camp They do not wish to live their lives on the run in a Hydramerica that would hunt them down, and those that wish to remain fear[...]

And that still stands. But before then, according to new information reaching Bleeding Cool, the classic team of Mark Waid and Chris Samnee will relaunch Captain America – and the #694 Marvel Legacy issue November? December? Something like that I think we might expect an announcement at San Diego Comic-Con or similar Then Ta-Nehisi Coates will write the comic[...]

The Rocketeer: High Flying Adventures collection is a beautiful book filled with stunning art and compelling stories for all ages!

Suddenly, in one horrifying instant, that all changes when one of the kids looks death in the eye — and death doesn't blink," Archie writer Mark Waid tells EW in a statement "Who will it be? All we can tell you is that you'll be shocked — and that no one is safe." From SyfyWire in April: How did[...]

Feeling restless, Viv Vision has left her fellow Champions to go to San Diego to do some soul-searching. She discovers the fledgling hero the Red Locust.

Superstar novelist and comic book writer Brian Keene has taken to Twitter to announce that he's currently working on a secret project for Marvel or DC,

Mark Waid is the writer of high profile books such as Champions and Avengers for Marvel, a veteran of three decades in comics, a former Editor-in-Chief, a digital comics company founder, and the owner of a comic shop. He also has some thoughts on Marvel Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing David Gabriel[...]

Written by Nick Kazden "Hi my name is Mark Waid, I've written everything." Comic veteran Mark Waid returned to Wondercon this year to moderate his own panel and talk about his 33 year-career in comics The prolific writer who is still juggling Avengers, Champions and Archie just brought Black Widow to a close on Wednesday. The man who[...]

But the latest announcement makes is seem like the comics may be moving a bit closer to the series. In a new Archie story arc from Mark Waid and Pete Woods called Over The Edge, the publisher claims that everything will change as Archie and his friends face mortal danger in the new event. Following in the[...]

He didn't look at this role and think this is a fun, silly bit of enjoyable work for a paycheck, he really layered in levels of pain, of implied history, of emotion into his portrayal, all of which culminates in this final swing at the character. Logan is a culmination of all those performances, but may[...]

Of course, much of the #AceAroJugheadorBust controversy is stemming from the comics, as Chip Zdarsky is leaving and Mark Waid comes in, and fears that Jughead's sexuality will be changed there…which would be an example of hiding or removing the characters sexuality as that would be the same continuity. The TV show…isn't[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Mark Waid knows how to write proverbial gold His take on the Archie universe has been exceptional In this issue we continue with Cheryl trying to take over Riverdale, while Veronica works her ass off to get back home to protect Archie (and well, all of her friends). Cheryl is incredible She's manipulative, coy, clever,[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Since it was announced that Mark Waid would be taking over the Jughead title in the future, I've felt a little bad for everyone's favorite burger eating lazy man Waid is an exceptional writer, but the current creative team (Ryan North, Derek Charm) is pretty darn good. We open with Dilton who is attempting his[...]
