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.

But what if a character's legacy has been irreparably tarnished?

"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,[...]

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[...]

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?

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?

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"] 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[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Mark Waid's take on the iconic Archie Andrews has so far been amazing Archie, and his colorful cast of characters, have really come alive with Waid behind the wheel In this issue we focus on resident genius, Dilton Doily Dilton has just created a new app that rates romantic spots Reggie finds out, and[...]

X-Men: Art by Humberto Ramos, Victor Olazaba and Edgar Delgado It makes quite a difference between this and writer Mark Waid's other superhero team book from Marvel, Avengers Avengers feels classic, and sure is kinda entertaining, but it does feel a little like retreaded ground Again, it's exceptionally early days, and this may change, but so far it's[...]

The possibilities are limitless." In other aspects of the industry, Puffinbottoms told us, hacks to the Twitter accounts of the likes of Nick Spencer or Mark Waid could "greatly increase Marvel's productivity" by giving the writers more time to focus on work with "less time spent on tweeting incessantly about politics or whether or not Superman[...]

If Doctor Who wants to appeal to kids more, they should hire a fifty year old writer like Mark Waid, following Marvel's example with The Champions comic book That would be totally on fleek Netflix and chill, sis. The Mirror also offers some spoilers for next season, though we caution that they are about as reliable[...]

Last week, Bleeding Cool told you about Champions artist Humberto Ramos's decision to stop going to conventions in "red states" – states which[...]

After all, why should a promotional comic book image stay locked away in the watermarked vaults of CBR's web servers just because they happen to be a loyal media partner of Marvel Comics? It's with that in mind that I've infiltrated Valnet Inc.'s headquarters and liberated Alex Ross's cover to Avengers #4, which swipes homages Jack Kirby's[...]
